My quibble with this game is, to a certain degree, derived from the exact documentary included in ...
You really have a mouth. Though, with all due respect, the way you developed your idea and the amount of academic terms might jeopardize what you really want to elucidate.
For The intention of presenting "authentic" feelings of mdieval Japan in a half-fictional event, it is well presented in the documentary. So I m with you. Actually I agree with you in nearly every regard you posted originally, and even tried to explain them to those you are arguing with, if you care to take a peek on my words. :P
But we may have different understandings on what we saw in this documentary. I didn't find any pressure that Nate gave to the professor. And the "eery" tone you mentioned seems to me fairly natural when a passionate big boy, travelling a long way, finally has a chance to meet the man who is an oneiromancer for his dream. If something really weird you smelt in this video, that may be because it was a conversation between a layman and an academic. the gap is huge and could not be filled easily. But I think there is no ill intention in this situation. And in fact, the professor did give him a succinct, decisive definition of "Bushido", namely, "being absolute loyal to his master","loyalty is the basis", "to fight and to die for your lord", "but you don't have to defeat your enemy", "what matters is not your victory but your sacrifice" (sorry if my memory is incorrect). To me, this is a very accurate definition of what make a samurai a samurai.
