    The game is large, fun, and addictive. The story is simple, but it does the trick. It's a bit repetitive at times, but the depth in the combat far makes up for that. There's some very interesting bugs in the game, but nothing game breaking or even annoying..something that I stopped and just laughed at. The land is beautiful. I truly feel immersed in a samurai story

    After obtaining the platinum trophy tonight and nearly 100% completed the game, I can say that Ghost of Tsushima is the best game that I've played this year and an incredible way to end the PS4 generation. It has a great story with great characters and the game's theme make you think about the samurai Bushido code of honor that is romanticized a lot, and its flaws during times of war.After obtaining the platinum trophy tonight and nearly 100% completed the game, I can say that Ghost of Tsushima is the best game that I've played this year and an incredible way to end the PS4 generation. It has a great story with great characters and the game's theme make you think about the samurai Bushido code of honor that is romanticized a lot, and its flaws during times of war. Without spoiling anything, all I will say about the game’s ending is that it definitively left me thinking about the code and its impracticalities during war.
    Pros:
    • Great story with solid characters.
    • Great voice acting in both English and Japanese. Of the two I prefer the Japanese dub.
    • Great sound effect and incredible soundtrack.
    • Satisfying and fun gameplay that is challenging, but fair for the most part (I'll get into why I say for the most part later).
    • The guiding wind system, which gets rid of waypoints, helps to immerse you into this world a lot more than other open world games.
    • Particle effects. This game has some of the best particle effects that I've seen in a AAA game. From leaves falling on the ground and on water and seeing ash and snow, it's all incredible.

    With all the pros I mentioned, you would think that this game is a 10/10 masterpiece, right? Not quite, at least for me. There are several minor flaws and nitpicks that I have with this game. Little things matter, and when you have several little things in a game, it adds up.

    Cons:
    • No lock on system. I found myself not striking the enemy that I wanted to attack often. A lock on system would have mitigated that.
    • No audio or visual cues for regular enemy attacks from behind. Other games that I've played that have a similar (but not identical) style of combat like Mad Max, God of War 2018, and Marvel's Spider-Man let you know when an enemy that is behind you is about to hit you. Not in this game. I got hit from behind more times in this game than the 3 games I mentioned
    • Certain enemy attacks later in the game do way too much damage, even with charms that reduce the amount of damage taken. I recommend either more ghost-oriented tactics (which is what I did), or to use the samurai clan armor if you want to stick to playing as samurai instead of the ghost. (I played on medium difficulty btw).
    • No crafting system. Often, the loot that I get would be things that I am already full on instead of things that I need (i.e. game gives me kunai instead of smoke bombs when I’m already full on kunai and have no smoke bombs and vise versa). A crafting system that lets me use woods, cloth, and metals to craft more items would have been appreciated since these resources become pointless once you fully upgrade your sword, bows, and armor. They could have made it somewhat expensive to craft items to prevent spam.
    • Bad lip-syncing for the Japanese dub. I guess this one should have been expected since SP is a western developer, but still, they could have made the Japanese dub have proper lip syncing since the game takes place in Japan.
    • No subtitles for minor NPC dialogue in the Japanese dub. I would have to go back and play in English to understand minor NCP conversation.
    • No new game plus. A minor nitpick, but I guess SP can always release an update that adds a new game plus if enough people ask for it.
    • Some side quests can get a little repetitive and have you doing the same thing in some of them. (i.e. follow tracks on the ground).
    • Bugs and glitches. This game has them and some of them are quite hilarious. From dumb AI to enemies attacking you in hot springs, and getting stuck in small crevices, they are here but fortunately, none of them are game breaking and most can be fixed by restarting from the last checkpoint.

    All in all, Ghost of Tsushima is a solid 9/10. It’s a contender for game of the year in my eyes.    … Expand

    Asides from a few minor issues with the camera and the lip synching for the Japanese dub, this is a near perfect game. The environment is gorgeous, the story is compelling and the characters are very interesting. If I were to nitpick one thing about the animation, it is that the characters don't move very much during cutscenses, but that is a very small complaint.

    Amazing graphics, great combat mechanics, great storyline, addictive and very cinematic.

    I give it a 9 and not a 10 because I feel let down by the interaction with the world (climbing, jumping from a platform to another) and the horse (compared to RDR2).
    This game and RDR2 are the only games that got my attention.

    Честно говоря мне игра очень понравилась. Именно так должны выглядеть эксклюзивы.
    Начну с хорошего. Визуально игра прекрасно выглядит для PS4, на экране всегда что то происходит, кружатся листья, падает снег и т.д. При этом я не заметил каких либо просадок фпс! Ни разу не столкнулся с загрузками более 20 секунд.

    Лицевая анимация порадовала, лица очень живые выражающие эмоции, к тому же здесь очень мало одинаковых нпс.
    Боевая система очень самобытная, чем то напоминает таковую в AC Origins с примесью Prince of Persia и For Honor, но сильно модернизирована. Есть стойки, помогающие в борьбе с различными видами врагов, есть супер удары, есть стелс (который в отличии от того же AC Origins работает), есть луки с множеством разных стрел, бомбы, приманки и т. д.
    Но самое интересное на мой взгляд это поединки. В них надо правильно подгадать время атаки врага и тогда, в slow mo, ты сможешь разрубить на части до пяти человек! Очень красиво и эффективно!
    В игре очень грамотно воплотили путеводный указатель, так как мини карты нет, очень даже полезный. Это ветер. Очень стильно и не нарушает сам сеттинг игры.
    О сюжете. Он не плохой, даже очень хороший. Герои хорошо прописаны, есть предательство, есть дружба. К тому же в игре есть побочные, так сказать, истории пяти персонажей. Очень советую их пройти они не чуть не уступают основной сюжетной линии, к тому же награждают достаточно хорошими вещами.
    Ну и конечно атмосфера. Она здесь есть и очень густая и затягивающая.
    Теперь о не очень приятном.
    Ну во первых это так называемые боссы. Есть такие командиры, в деревнях, крепостях и т. д., но на них у разработчиков фантазия закончилась, от начала до конца игры это абсолютно одинаковые чуваки в золотых доспехах, но с разными именами. Есть также боссы, странствующие ронины. Бои с ними практически не чем не отличаются: увернулся, ударил, парировал и т. д. Но есть и реальные боссы со своим лицом.
    Спойлер.
    Это Рюдзо, Хотун-хан и Симура.
    Во вторых феменизм!
    Я раньше не знал чья студия Sucker Punch, японская или чья то ещё. В начале игры я было подумал, что японская, но когда на меня напала бабка-самурайка...;-))...я понял нет это американцы! В игре все, почти, женщины это сильные духом самурайки, а вот мужики, почти все, слюньтяи, упрямые ослы либо предатели. Но сюжетно это очень здорово обыграно, типа всех крутых мужиков на острове убили монголы. И это работает. Я переживал, что в игру всё же засунут какую нибудь лгбт историю. К счастью волнения не подтвердились.
    И так резюмирую. Это великолепная игра. Разработчики не стали опускаться на толерантное дно как в Last of Us Part II и в этом их сила. Она мне зашла так же как SW Fallen Order, т.е. очень хорошо! При том, пока это эксклюзив PS, поэтому советую всем владельцам данной платформы!    … Expand

    The combat is good, not the best, but is fun, not boring at all and challenging if you play in hard mode (which I advise you to do so).
    The exploration is really satisfiying, with the most stunning looks in this generation, and the feel of epicness, feels like some kickass samurai movie
    The story is really good, not the best but i could empathyze with jin, the drama and what motivates him to try saving Tsushima so bad. Also the side quest offer a nice story that gets you into this world.
    It has enough content for you to spend a 100 hours on this game. The main story could only take 30-40 hours.
    The photo mode has enough options for you to get a wallpaper of the game every 5 minutes so at least give that a shot once.
    Character personalization is badass

    Some people say the game gets repetitive.at some point but for me that was never an issue.
    The combat sometimes doesn't feels good when you face a group with many enemies
    The stealth is not as great, is fun but I rather to go like a samurai.
    Some enemies AI is amazing and some other is not quite as good
    Some side missions fall into the same open world mission cliche even when we have some other games like the witcher wich managed to go over that issue.
    Some FPS drops here and there but nothing that ruined my experience.
    Fan noise as loud as you would think

    Game gives you what sony promissed with every single one of their exclusives, a fun game with an awesome story which makes you feel like you're playing a movie. Feels great to be a samurai and is fun to be a ninja. And it looks like a next gen game.

    If you like japanese, samurai and ninja stuff BUY THE GAME NOW
    If you only like open worlds or looking to have fun better wait for sale but please, please give it a try, 1-5 hours of your time will be more than enough to decide if it's worth it or not    … Expand

The combat and stealth mechanics are well polished and with the higher difficulty settings as well as more accessibility option the game is perfectly tailored for a challenging but not fair experience. To top it all off the customization adds an amount of flair that makes the playthrough feel unique to the player. The only downsides to the game are primarily house cleaning for instance I played exclusively in Kurosawa mode to enjoy the beautiful 50's Japanese film style graphics, but a mechanic related to which attacks can be blocked and which have to be dodged, was omitted from this mode and made parts of the game more difficult and confusing than need be this could be easily fixed with a simple patch.

    There is definitely something wrong with SONY as they put tons of money in advertisement average quality projects with pretty much no proper story line and keep silence about the PS EXCLUSIVE that has it all! And when I'm saying that the game has it all, there is no any exaggeration or something.
    I'm hundred percent sure that the game is a pure gem for the Japan culture lovers!

    I'm not one of those crazy about Samurais and Ninjas but the point is that the game looks so good I was super interested to put my hands on anyway!
    As I said already the game is beautiful and speaking of beautiful it looks amazing! All the colors are like the magical music converted into visual form for your eyes!
    The game has a great atmosphere that makes you dive into the game and easily tell yourself "I believe it!". Small villages, distant buildings in the mind-blowing areas, natural looking flora, tons of moving tiny elements such as stylish flying leaves around you, animals, all those elements make the game world super relaxing but definitely not dead. You clearly feel that the world is alive and believable.
    The game has a simple but great story line, great characters including what I would call really strong female character and not those artificial ones as we can see in these days modern products full of weird messages.
    The game has great combat system! Not over-complicated but enough diverse to be perfect for average gamer.
    Overall we have a great product for everyone to enjoy that should get a strong 7 or even 8 out of 10 but with what is going on in the game critics community I'll give it 9 out of 10 as the game is much better than the most of the high rated games out there according to professional critics!    … Expand

This is my first sucker punch game and after playing Ghost I feel like I’ve been sleeping on them. I think I owe it to them to at least check out their other games now given that ghost of Tsushima is so amazingly good. The open world in this game is so breath taking and the gameplay is so fluid that it makes for a winning combination. I thought I would get tired of the gameplay after a while but towards the end the game really picks up the pace and throws some really though enemies at you that give you a real challenge! I played on hard mode and I highly recommend it rather than medium difficulty. The enemies don’t just stand around to wait their turn to die. Hard mode gives a slightly harder challenge that I think fits this game much better. The story in this game is also amazing! Coming from the last of us 2 where everything was a complete **** show, I have to saw I really really appreciated what sucker punch did with this story and how they delivered it with compelling side characters that actually mattered to me. Everyone that has more than a couple side mission attached to them are excellently written. They have done such an amazing job and I highly recommend this game. I feel like this game isn’t getting the recognition it really deserves from the gaming media outlets. Clearly looking at the er reviews, you can see how many people really enjoyed the game, just like I did. This is going down in my top 5 games of ALL TIME! That is saying a lot!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Купил плойку только ради этой игры. Но на деле, она не оправдала ожиданий, к сожалению.
    В итоге, мне показалось, что вся игра - это очень красивая постановка, которой не хватает геймплея. По отдельности, каждый элемент выглядит великолепно, но быстро надоедает.

    Враги слишком однообразны, и по сути, их всего 4 вида монголов (трижды они становятся сильнее по ходу игры, но это всё те же враги), 1 вид соломенных шляп, и один вид монголов в золотых доспехах.

    Все поединки в игре сделаны по одному и тому же принципу, а между боссами слишком мало отличий и уникальных возможностей.

    Сайдеквесты сиииильно уступают основной сюжетной линии. Я прошёл 2 сюжетные ветки из четырех или пяти - и все они весьма так себе. А концовка сюжетной ветке с Томоэ и Исикавой вообще не подлежит здравому смыслу...

    Основной сюжет хорош собой, персонажи колоритны и проработаны. Вот в них есть хоть какое-то разнообразие. Плюс постановка каждого квеста - это какой-то кинематографичный шедевр - я ещё никогда не делал столько скриншотов и скринкастов игры.

    В остальном, нужно было или меньше контента во всей игре, или делать больше разнообразных активностей. При том, что боёвка просто великолепна, возможностей боя просто невероятно много, и они не до конца раскрываются.

    К концу игры мне надоело воевать с одинаковыми врагами и выполнять одинаковые сайдквесты (не истории, а именно сайдквесты). Но если у вас нет задачи пройти и открыть всё, то можно с большим удовольствием сосредоточиться на прохождении основного сюжета и историй компаньонов. Правда, игра в какой-то момент всё равно вынудит вас к гринду уровня.    … Expand

The simple death animations aren’t as satisfying as they could be, there was so much creative potential there which is regrettable. The combat is immensely enjoyable, but again, feels like a small touch of something is missing. Enemy variety could have been improved as well.

While you play it everything feels solely its own and completely natural to the game. The two greatest accomplishments of the game are the combat and the variety. The combat is EXCELLENT, multiple ways to approach any situation, every technique and skill can be used in any number of ways/combinationsS and with the enemy variety it never gets old. Furthermore, on the normal setting the combat is challenging without pointless difficulty, resulting in the occasional death and “oh crap” moments; fans of the souls-borne game will love the hard difficulty setting (it’s HARD). The other big success of the game is the variety, and that’s really the variety of every aspect: locations, collectibles, quests, everything meshes together perfectly without getting old - I’m trying to 100% the game 1/3rd of the way finished, 20 hours in and not a moment of boredom yet.

The quality is exceptional. The story is awesome. The side quests are so interesting that you actually want to spend time completing them all! Until now I never bothered with any side quest of any other game, period! Here I just want to do the side quests before jumping on the main story, so that the experience does end too soon! This game is more like a high quality TV series, where there is the main plot, and lots of awesome mini-stories that popup in each new episode. Trully amazing! I am not a hardcore gamer, or anything like that. I finished a few of PS4 major games this year: Doom Eternal, FF7 Remake, TLOU2. Until now, the three games that I thought were the most awesome of the generation were Death Stranding, FF7 Remake and Sekiro because of innovation and/or amazing story and graphics. I would shy away from praising TLOU2 too much because of too much controversy although the gameplay was really great and the story and graphics were also pretty good. This game, however, is something else! The medieval Japan setting is something that is universally loved. The acting is very high in quality. The game is just fun to play. I am surprised the critics gave this game a lower score than it deserves. The game is definitely the best way to end the generation. Ghost of Tsushima is open-world done right! It is probably the best open-world game ever made. It's probably the best medieval Japan samurai/ninja game ever made. In sharp contrast I would put Days Gone, which is open-world done wrong. After recently trying Days Gone I decided maybe open-world sucks after all, but then Ghost of Tsushima comes along and proves that you can do it right!!!

    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.
