    Weak story, weak and repetitive side quests, and bland world. Graphics are amazing but this is basically Assassin's Creed Japan. Very little effort went into this game by the developers. Only casual gamers would enjoy this

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think it's an open world game too much limited, it took me 'bout 20 hours to rescue Shimura, hours that seemed endless clearing Mongolian camps in Izuhara like a Far Cry, the story had excellent potential, but it is poorly told, Everything is going very well, and one mission later everything goes very wrong, I did everything I could without using stealth, I would have liked that the use of stealth or face-to-face combat had consequences in the story and the characters, like Dishonored does, the way how is limited by camps that aren't your level is also very abrupt, with deluges of arrows coming from… non-existent bows? please. I have completed it 100%, and I have felt all this as an rpg player and a lover of Japanese culture, artistically it is amazing, but in terms of playability I don't like it.… Expand

    one of the most boring games. The only thing i liked about the game was the combat, even tho after some time it became repetitive. The side quests began to feel like chores, nothing interesting about them. It s definitely an over rated game. I don’t recommend it if you’re looking for an immersive story and a complex open world game

    Excruciatingly long introduction with unskippable cutscenes, then onto boring and repetitive "kill wave after wave of enemies" missions and world events. Combat is atrocious when you're not fighting the camera (which is most of the time) and the whole standoff gimmick seems completely pointless - it adds nothing.

    Visually it's really nice, the gameplay works well (althought it gets really boring after a while). But I did not enjoy my time with it. Everything is bleak and depressing. And at the end of the day, enjoying it is the most important part.

    Totally Overrated, the Story isnt sadly that good, really not a Single interesting figure in this, i like Shimura, thats all, all side kicks especially Yuna are just terrible and she's only in the Game to show that Women can be Strong too. Yuna is Ruinen the whole Game to me, The Fight System is very unfair. But it looks beautiful, thats all

    I'm pretty surprised at the score here.

    So I played the intro section and a few minutes more and I was bored. Really bored. I just got an old Monster Hunter a few days ago and it was more entertaining in 5 minutes than this was in an hour. So basically this feels like a more boring, less fluid, worse looking version of Gujian 3. I have played a few hours of Gujian 3 and it has left me    I'm pretty surprised at the score here.

    So basically this feels like a more boring, less fluid, worse looking version of Gujian 3. I have played a few hours of Gujian 3 and it has left me wanting more . Ghost of Tsushima left me deleting the game.

    The game felt like a film with button presses and sluggish action. Now I can deal with this type of thing, I really enjoyed Beyond Two Souls but the character, this Jin guy, I didn't want to be him, he was so (and I know I'm repeating this word) boring. I just wanted him to get killed off. I love Samurai, I love Japanese things and this is a stunning game but that is it. This Jin guy was like an annoying little millennial **** of a Samurai. There is honour and there is being a bell end. There is a fine line and he crossed it. Jumped up and down on that line.

    GoT is a bit like pulling a model on a night out and getting her home to find out the beef curtains be smelling more like a 2 week old tuna butty than a prime cut.

    As if the immersion of being in the shoes of a character I wanted to punch wasn't game breaking enough. The PS4 started up its propeller every 30 seconds, sounding like it was ready to launch a NASA rocket.

    So if you want a historical Asian style game with good action and stunning graphics. Personally, for me, Gujian 3 is way better.

    I give a point for the bloody brilliant graphics.

    -9 for bad characters, story, gameplay and making my PS4 fan work it's ticket to the extreme. I don't really remember the sound being good, or bad. I'm guessing it was probably just OK. Maybe I just couldn't hear it over the frigging fan that was only recently dismantled and cleaned out.    … Expand

Feels like an afterthought just so they can say "Yes, we have bows, too."
    Mounted combat is an absolute joke until far into the Iki Island expansion where you get some abilities and a very ugly horse armor. Stealth is broken beyond repair. I give it one point for some pretty scenery and decent English voice acting. I feel sad for all those people who confuse Ghost of Tsushima with quality entertainment.    … Expand

    Para mí parecer, es un videojuego muy aburrido que se hace largo a partir de las 10 horas de juego. Las misiones son super repetitivas y el ir de un sitio a otro se hace muy pesado. El personaje principal no tiene ningún carisma ni personalidad. Eso sí la ambientación es increíble y acompañan los gráficos.

    Character-wise there is nobody who stands out or I feel particulary attached to, same goes for the main villain who is generic and forgetable like the proganist and his companions.

    The multiplayer is a neat idea but the missions are something you are gonna play once and you forget about them and horde mode (even at its highest difficulty settings) gets really boring. I didn't try raids but I think that they won't be as different as the other modes included there.

    Im Vergleich zur E3 Version sieht das normale Release aus wie scheiße. Andere Pflanzen, Bäume, schlechte Boden Auflösung und ein schlechter aufgelöstes Charakter Model außer in Cutscenes. Sorry echt scheiße für Ps Exclusive.

    There are main quests, side quests, claimed sites to free from mongols, artifacts to find.

    After you killed anyone you turn around and suddenly every corpse is clean from any blood, nice destroying immersion like this.
    The looting is extremly boring and simplified. Its just thousand lines here, thousand steels there, find enough and upgrade your only weapon again and again.
    Everything is just PREDICTABLE. How undemanding can you be ?

    The only interesting part is the lore and the combat system, well.
    If you had some beers, play it, the positive aspects may be enough to keep you happy for a little while.
    But its not a "wow whaaat its sunday already ?!?!" game.

    It does have a Ubisoft open world vide to it tho, but if you look past that, it is hours upon hours of play.
    You can play it either as a samurai, full blown standoffs etc, or as a ninja. sneaking up and poisoning people. It affects the weather ! play as a ninja a lot and it will storm, play as a samurai, the sun will shine.
    Kurosawa mode is also fun ( old samurai movie style after the director Kurosawa)
    Does it have glitches? yes but you reeeeally have to look for em.

    This game has been really underwhelming. I was expecting so much more but overall, it’s not up to par with other open world games like Red Dead Redemption 2. At least when it comes to immersion, interaction, world building and story telling.

    Maybe this is relevant but I haven’t watched any samurai movies or played any other Japanese based games. I found all the characters in Ghost of Tsushima to be one dimensional and bland. None of the characters are intriguing and their stories didn’t interest me either. The main story was also quite short, predictable, cliched and it just didn’t grip me as much as I was hoping it would. There are some goofy and corny moments in the game that made me cringe but then it dawned on me that Sucker Punch Production games tend to be like this in general. I just can’t vibe with that.

    In regards to the open world, there’s barely any attention to detail and you’ll notice a lot of low resolution environmental textures. The physics are weird and outfits that have capes will blow around with such force INDOORS that it sticks out like a sore thumb. The open world also feels really empty and all the NPCs are lifeless and static. It’s just not an immersive game even though it tries to be. There are many more gripes that I have with Ghost of Tsushima like the laughably bad (and unskippable) cutscenes, animations, camera, braindead ai, etc. It just feels lazy and low effort if I’m being honest and you can tell a lot of corners were cut. It doesn’t feel like an AAA game at all. I uninstalled it straight away after completing it even though I tend to revisit other open world games despite completing them.    … Expand

    My only explanation for the user score being 9.2 is that the majority of gamers love Japan because anime is from Japan, which makes them weebs (because let's be honest, every anime is weeb, except Castlevania that's not Japanese), which makes them unable to objectively see anything involving Japan which makes everything 10 out of 10 IGN.

    If those individuals were able to see things    My only explanation for the user score being 9.2 is that the majority of gamers love Japan because anime is from Japan, which makes them weebs (because let's be honest, every anime is weeb, except Castlevania that's not Japanese), which makes them unable to objectively see anything involving Japan which makes everything 10 out of 10 IGN.

    If those individuals were able to see things clearly, they would have no problem noticing all those major flaws which make the game look more like an indie title than what it actually is.

    A few examples:
    - One door opening animation that's repeated every single time you or any other NPC tries to enter any building with shoji entrance. (Now imagine following 2 NPCs into a building and seeing that 3 times in a row in 5 seconds)
    - Pathfinding that makes NPCs run in straight lines till they hit the edge of their path, so they could unrealistically turn 30 degrees and continue in another straight line.
    - Dull stealth gameplay which in combination with maybe even worse enemy AI that doesn't know how to behave after you break their line of sight results in one of the least enjoyable experiences I've ever had in any game that offered stealth.
    - repetitive side activities that make you constantly follow foxes, birds that get stuck in every single tree or rock (just like any other animal you encounter) that appears in their way, or the most annoying old fart ever created as a game character that howls the word THOMOEEEE every 2 sentences.
    - Interactivity with the open world that includes only following NPCs, clicking on prompts to investigate, sitting down to click on predefined sentences, taking your clothes off to bathe, and climbing up 1997 platformer-looking stumps on a rock.
    - No interesting or genuine characters except some of them during the duels that just look cool for a few seconds before you kill them, and after defeating 3 of them you quickly notice that there's not much variability in their moveset, so it becomes another routine activity.
    Other than that, next to the THOMOEEEE shouting passive-aggressive moralizing grandpa is a bloodthirsty lesbian running around in samurai armor (at least her storyline is not that bad), and another old fart preaching honor, disciprin, and toradishon also every 2 sentences for a change, not even speaking of the protagonist himself, whose personality is at best 1% of commander Shepard.

    I may have forgotten about a half of things that had some negative impact on my experience from the game, nonetheless, it's a boring stereotypical adventure that only looks nice and has some impressive combat mechanics (in case you play how the developers want you to, which I suggest, otherwise you'll break the game) that would've been pretty cool if a game called Sekiro hasn't already been released. However, not to only insult everything this game stands for, it's pretty funny at the beginning that it won't let you enter stealth, because you're a samurai, therefore you need to introduce yourself and your whole famiry to everyone you decide to attack.
    Also, to my disbelief, the game has one game-changer, and it's the wind mechanic that completely eradicates the necessity for any kind of HUD elements, which is something other games should learn from... But again, in those games at least you can find an epic quest in the corner of the map instead of a retarded banner to upgrade your saddle that nobody ever in the history of gaming cared about.

    Unfortunately, regarding new gameplay mechanics introduced after the intro, there is only a grappling hook. But it's not just any grappling hook - It's the least satisfying grappling hook out of hundreds of games that started implementing grappling hooks in their games 5 years ago, when it was cool. Not counting upgraded combat moves, it's all you encounter throughout its 30-hour campaign filled with repetitive missions to ultimately chase down and kill an Asian version of Steven Seagal in a way that the shogun doesn't like, so he bans you from writing haiku and drinking sake for the rest of your life, because that's what samurai did when nothing was happening.

    Considering the number of Japanese names in the final credits, which is close to 0, despite it just being not a good game, it's not even close to being authentic, and I'd gladly change it for a million Naughty Dog LGBTQ dramas in an instant.    … Expand

    Ghost of Tsushima is a flawed, but fun, game. While the gameplay itself was solid, and the story was decent, I definitely expected a lot more from Sony’s final PlayStation 4 exclusive. It had enough to keep me hooked, but lacked the polish we’ve all grown to love from a Sony first party game.
