    The elements of this game are not groundbreaking but are presented in such a distilled and detailed package, you just can't let go of it. I'm not too fond of open-world games, they're a chore.

    The game respects the player. It's not trying to fill the map with time-wasting activities but with genuinely interesting events and small-scale findings that fully represent what the developers wanted to do. That is, to give you a single-player, story and character-driven game, with grounded and believable motivations, in a rich, beautiful map. I wanted to see most of the content because it's presented in a very organic way. This game went above and beyond your ordinary open-world bore-fest.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thank God! Fortunately, there is still a highlight at the end of the console generation.

    Great graphics and atmosphere. Great combat system. Fantastic open world.

    The only drawback, who is already overwhelmed with the brainless gigantism in Ubisoft's AC series, will also encounter the typical problems of Open World games at GoT. Beautiful, but big and time-consuming open world, which can lead to motivation problems at some point. After 20 hours, you only saw 30% of the game with side quests etc. You should know this before you buy the game, but it's worth every penny.

    Nevertheless, it has become the masterpiece that another AAA game wanted to be recently and failed miserably. Without any disgusting political agenda, Ghost of Tsushima puts play fun and show values ​​in the foreground and delivers what you expect and deserve as a player.

    Thank you Sucker Punch for this masterpiece! It also fills the void that the Tenchu ​​franchise left after the brand died.    … Expand

    This was an epic journey with plenty of stories to go through, with many things to do and an open world with breathtaking landscapes that you’ll will love to see over and over again.

I wish there would be more useful armour and weapons, after doing half of the game I had already maxed out everything so there was no need to do any other side missions besides the tales for the support characters to perhaps know more about them.

    The best tales were lady Sawako and Norio, the sensei Ishikawa tale was disappointing a little bit at the end, they built up one of the characters to an extent and then it seems the writer didn’t commit to it. It was disappointing. The same goes for the final battle against Kothun kan.

    In a nutshell, it was a great game with a vastly beautiful open world and very versatile combat mechanics.    … Expand

    Tsushima is beyond breathtaking, beautiful and worthwhile at every corner. The atmosphere is handled extremely well, which is complimented by probably the best sound design I have ever heard, the player being sucked into sucker punch's creation. Every sword strike feels power- and meaningful, being accompanied by dramatic hits, drums, flutes and singing. The titlecard gives me shivers everytime and is one of the most powerful gaming intro's I've ever experienced. The combat starts off easy and boringly simple, slowly adding up while one's own skill grows until you eventually become... The 'Ghost of Tsushima'
    There's just NOTHING more satisfying than mongols laughing at a stand-off before you slaughter each of their friends in one quick slice, the others throwing their weapons away and cowering on the ground.

    Now that I'm done sucking the game and sucker (haha) punch studios off, let's get into some of the negatives:
    The story is rather bland. 'Servicable' is the height it reached for me. This meaning it motivated and kept me intrigued. However, the real strength of this game comes from combat, exploration and even sidestories (which sometimes are surprisingly deep and fleshed out).
    Characters are fine and well written. Not much (overall) blew me away but I never felt unsatisfied.

    That being said, there are some shining moments like surprising + negative situations, that are actually well made (watch and learn, "new dogs").

    Minor, but still something I picked up on: Some of the animations are clunky while other's are beyond admirable. Things sometimes 'just happen' at a button press, without much of a transition between stances or weapon types. I suppose 'The last of us Part 2' really spoiled me in that regard.

    Ghost of Tsushima is a good game, but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece. This is a very beautiful and great game. But for some reason the story didn’t catch me. Perhaps a romantic storyline for the protagonist or one of his companions would be useful.
    And the question that bothered me throughout the game: why did the central female character not wash her face throughout the entire plot?

    this game looks and plays amazing. I thought cyberpunk or final fantasy 7 remake would be my favourite games this year but ghost is the winner. I love that even though i'm playing on hard mode in an RPG the bad ain't "bullet sponges" a fatal blow is fatal. this game makes you feel like a swordsman.

But after like 70 hours into it, I can safely say that this is hands down the best samurai game ever made. Combat is simple (4 stances for 4 different types of enemies. dodge/parry when you need to), but it managed to keep interesting till the end. Story is really unique, probably a rather more interesting story in a video game. Graphics look really good, not because they look "realistic" but because of the art design. It is, again, very unique and special.

    The only thing that is considered to be "bad" to me is that this game uses a old formula established by Assassin’s Creed long ago, which is rather hard to surprise anyone now. However, it is a old Assassin’s Creed done right. This is what Assassin’s Creed should be like, not a **** money grabber that pops up every other year with a more and more sloppy story to go with just to keep the series going. So yeah, it is still a good game in my opinion    … Expand

    One of the best games of the year, no doubt. Several things stand out as special in the game - the combat mechanics, the beautiful vistas, the open world and stealth gameplay are all great highlights. This will inspire and change the way open world games are made in the future. Storyline is fairly standard though and the characters are mostly uni-dimensional.

    Ghost of Tsushima é o primeiro game do gênero que realmente me prendeu, além do mapa ser maravilhoso é super divertido explorar e descobrir coisas novas, as quests míticas são simplesmente incríveis.

    Um dos momentos que mais me chocou no jogo foi em uma situação que aconteceu fora de quest. Eu decidi subir em uma montanha bem alta para ver a paisagem, e quando cheguei lá duas mulheres se encaravam. Não tinha qualquer marcação de quest no mapa naquele local, e nem mesmo o somzinho de local de interesse. Pensei que as duas não fossem fazer nada, até que eu cheguei perto e uma delas disse que elas queriam fugir da ilha e me mandou olhar pro horizonte para ver o barco dela. Dei uns 4 passos e fui até a beirada da montanha e não vi absolutamente barco nenhum, e aí o Jim logo falou "Não vejo nada" e eu já achei estranho mas ri. Pois bem, virei a câmera pra voltar pra mulher sem muito entender o que estava acontecendo e ela simplesmente matou a outra com uma espadada, e logo começou uma mini boss fight (ela era bem rápida e aguentou bem mais hits). Eu fiquei impressionado porque isso não era nem side quest, foi algo que eu vi uma única vez no jogo e totalmente opcional e surpreendente.

    E esse é o mundo de Tsushima, cheio de coisas para descobrir e te surpreender.    … Expand

    Story: 7/10. It's rather "realistic", kind of has the feel of seeing an inaccurate history enterainment action movie. The characters are kinda weird and the dialogue often awkward. Although I like japanese culture or it might just be me, but this feels no better than the average japanese B movie. I couldn't really bring myself to care much about any character, because their backstories are told very superficially.

    I actually agree with the 8.3 average critics review this time. The massive amount of 10/10s are very much over the top from my point of view. It's an enjoyable game that has no real weakness, but no game that doesn't innovate at all should ever get a 100% rating imo. Ghost of Tsushima really does the same old AC/Witcher formula with a Samurai era japanese setting. It does it really well, no doubt.
    No GOTY material for me though. That currently goes to Hades for me on PC and FF7R on PS4 unless Cyberpunk 2077 holds up to the hype.    … Expand

    Only real negative is the frame rate. This game needs 60 fps. It could be because I'm playing on an original PS4, but the frame rate seems really janky at some points. With that said, the game play is ridiculously fun and the story is enough to keep me wanting to play, but nothing really special.

    A very atmospheric game with a good immersion in Japanese samurai culture. The original voice acting works wonders, reminded Sekiro very much, it is also worth leaving the original voice acting in it so that the immersion is better.

    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.

    Ultimately, it feels like the game could have benefited from a smaller scope or a more linear structure. Focus on the duels could have created a more engrossing product, especially if it honed in on the narrative for a more concise and cinematic experience. But as it stands, Ghost of Tsushima is another AAA open world title and doesn’t seek to define itself as anything other than that.
