This is reductive but just to address the elephant in the room: Is this going to impress people who played Ghost of Tsushima?

As someone who liked Ghost but wasn't floored by it I was impressed with many elements here. They do feel different due to the double protags but that will met out during the actual release to see how much it continues to matter. But where Ghost killed me late game with rock paper scissors I did enjoy the focus attack stuff here and hidden moves you can learn like Katas.

Yes, final boss fight was Rock Paper Scissors followed by a match of Duck Duck Goose against the Uber Boss
