What is the purpose of this statue? Is it just to hold your armor or is it used for some kind of shinto ritual or something?


What is this statue doing in the sword gym? is this a real thing? I always felt like this room was strange since it’s so large and takes the entire floor, but is so non-interactive. It seems like it would be used to challenge the target to a sword fight or something. I do like how you can aim a gun at the ninja in the rafter and he hops down so you can do a sword challenge with him.

I think it’s just decoration. Cool ancient armour that the target has in his dojo.

Perhaps small questions like this don’t need their own thread.

Can someone merge this into ask HMF anything?

I suppose it’s either used for training or decoration.

Exactly!

Looks fun, and it’s what I miss from the older games. With new Hitman, this would be impossible, as you’d be prompted to press a button to trigger an execution animation or QTE.

Damn the way Hayamoto jumps all around the place, those animations are so janky… I love it. Need to replay this game in its entirety
