    El juego más bonito que he jugado en prácticamente toda mi vida, perderse en el juego es una de las mejores experiencias que he tenido nunca y el combate es extraordinario, entra en el top de los mejores exclusivos de PS4 y por supuesto de cara al futuro, es un aliciente más para elegir a PlayStation como consola de next gen.

    I can't imagine a prettier game, with a better gameplay and story. This is a masterpiece. Imo this game is superior to the likes Elder scrolls and witcher 3. Games like these are the reason Sony playstation is hottest console in the market right now.

    The game is a pure masterpiece. It combines the best of the current generation, a quest system from Witcher 3, a rich combat system from God of War, a story when the main character reconsiders his values like in RDR 2 and a cool authentic setting like in Horizon Zero Dawn. Definitely must play and one of the best Sony's games!!!

    I play quite a few games every year, it is however rare for me to be truly amazed by a game. Ghost of Tsushima however pulled this off for me. 9-9.5/10 // If you are a fan of Samurai media or feudal Japan this is a no brainer, buy it now.

Ghost of Tsushima however pulled this off for me. 9-9.5/10 // If you are a fan of Samurai media or feudal Japan this is a no brainer, buy it now.

    The great:
    - Graphics and Art style - wow just wow! this must be one of the most beautiful games i've ever played, thanking much to the amazing art style. Fans of samurai cinema will feel right at home.
    - Samurai combat - the samurai combat is deep, visceral and very precise. No bullet sponges or bad animations found in this game, its remarkably fluid. Samurai combat (especially on hard) can be really challenging early on and mid-game.
    - Sound - the main theme, background music, leaves rustling in the wind.. this has to be one of the best sounding games to date.
    - The setting and world lore - very well done, they recreated 1200's Japan very well despite using a cast of made-up characters based on the real events. You'd almost forget this was made by an American studio (primarily, Japan studios did assist)
    - The world - it feels decently sized, varied, packed with content and feels handcrafted, Ubisoft copy paste is (luckily) absent from this game.
    - Samurai duels and standoffs.. do i need to say more?
    - Some of the characters - Jito Shimura, Yuna, Norio, Take and Masako are awesome with huge amounts of character building.
    - Enemies - The enemies are unique, very well crafted and look like they wandered out of a history book. The main villain is very interesting, sadly you only really see him at the start and the end with some minor cutscenes in between.

    The Ok:
    - Story quality - the story is just that, an above average story for this kind of game, with some unique elements due to the unique setting in ancient japan. My personal opinion is that they start pushing you in the directen of the Ghost gameplay (Ninja/assasin) fairly early on, i'd prefer more/longer focus on the samurai path - the internal struggle (honourable vs dishonourable) feels a bit rushed at times.
    - Game length - somewhat on the short side if you just focus on the main quests, if you rush it you can complete it in less than 13 hours. However without rushing from point to point it will most likely take you between 20-25 hours. Doing all side stories (based on the secondary characters) and sidequests it can take up to 35-45 hours. a 100% run with all upgrades and collectibles can take you up to 50-60+ hours.
    - Ghost combat - average, just your usual Assasins Creed "press square to assinate" or "triangle to chain assasinate" if enemies are close together. Ghost tools can become quite OP if you spend the right points, taking the challenge out of the combat effectively cheesing late game encounters. Which is a shame! since the samurai combat is so challenging and rewarding to pull off on higher difficulties.
    - Jin the main character - As a Samurai he is told his entire life to supress emotions, and while they did depict this well + the struggle he has with being honorable, it makes for quite a muted one-dimensional character. i found it hard to really immerse myself into this character in chapter 1 and 2. Only in the last chapter Jins true feelings and emotions start showing and its great!
    - No NG+ (yet) once you do everything in the game, there is nothing left to do, most activities are not repeatable. You can easily start a new save game while keeping your old ones though.
    - No Minigames (Personal preference, don't take this to serious) - a minigame like Shogi (Japanese chess kinda), archery gallery (the ranges are in the game already), arena mode and/or repeatable/random generated 1 on 1 duels would have been great!

    The bad:
    - Some minor framerate issues in cities and some areas with a lot going on, both on PS4 Pro and Base models. it is never really bad, but it did take me out of it a few times when an arrea just started chugging along, sometimes a reboot fixed it even, so might be patchable.    … Expand

This game was absolutely amazing, the gameplay is perfect, the swordplay is incredible and the game itself is in my opinion, the most beautiful game that i have played, the colors in some areas are just insane, you could literally just walk around (i did) looking at the incredible sights, the falling leaves, the huge terrains with flowers, the shinto shrines, everything is so beautiful and perfect, but at the same time can be dark and depressing depending on the mission which is good.
    The story is very good too, i enjoyed it a lot, it really does make you feel like a samurai and also as the ghost, the story can play with your feelings as you progress it and transform, you can feel the character and his struggle which is just amazing, very very good story. (please release some DLC or a sequel, a sequel would be amazing)
    The music is just incredible, its not boring or playing 24/7 which in this game, is good, being able to explore the island of tsushima while listening to nature sounds is a joy, however that doesn't mean that the times where music does play are bad, its absolutely fantastic, the duels are some of my favorite part of the game, and the music that plays whenever you go face to face against an opponent its just perfect.
    I played the game with the japanese voice track, in my opinion, its really good, it is a shame that the lip sync is only for the english voice track, however for me, it wasn't distracting or bad that i wasn't synced with the japanese voices, what i did find kind of annoying but very minor in reality is the subtitles, i do know a little bit of japanese and knew what they where saying, sometimes the subtitles are off, to give you an example: a character may say: “ ありがとうございます” “arigatou gozaimasu” which would mean thank you in a formal way, sometimes the subtitles were correct with this but sometimes it was completely off, sometimes the subs said “Thank you very much” which could be correct or “Thank you, Lord Sakai” which is off, as its adding words, sometimes the subs would even say something like “My life is saved because of you” which would be incorrect but im assuming that the subs are just ported from the english voice track so it causes errors on the translation, again this is not really a big deal, but it can get annoying sometimes, very minor.
    Other than that, i didn't experience any issues or bugs while playing, which was fantastic.
    I give it a 10/10, amazing, again, thank you sucker punch and sony for making this game possible, please keep making games like this one!.    … Expand

    Going back to my first sentence. Growing up my father would tell me stories about the legacy of my family, how if not for our contributions and that of the many other samurai families that still mainly reside in Kyushu, that Japan might not even exist. So to see first hand a depiction of this era was just breathtaking. I actually got to get a glimpse of what it was like for my ancestors saw and felt.

    The game goes an amazing job of making you feel like you are fighting an uphill battle. Even though the island is naturally beautiful, scenes of death permeate the pristine landscape. An amazing duality of the beauty of our world and the macabre horrors of war.

    The combat is very deliberate and very gory. Your strikes feel very impactful, when you slice a person they feel it and it shows. Their comrades react accordingly, reeling in shock at their compatriot being decapitated in front of them and often stagger backward in terror.

    The game is just masterfully executed and is an experience from start to finish.    … Expand

The visual were absolutely incredible for a open world game. The combat is very good as well. I'm collecting items to finish this 100% for my Platinum trophy,.

    Playstation games often focus a to much on the story and leave gameplay kind of "ok" . This is NOT the case with Ghost of Tsushima.

Every part of this game is amazing, I never use the fast travel option, there is so much to do and see and hidden things to find. I am usually the type of person who buys a game, plays it for an hour then never plays it again. This game brought me out of that rut. It has put an end to the recent bland open world games that have been released. Unfortunately I never got around to enjoying Horizon Zero Dawn or other games much because they felt like they were missing something. Ghosts of Tsushima does not feel like it is lacking anything, and it has me absolutely hooked. If you buy one game in your life, please either buy this or Titanfall 2 for the story. No other games comes close.… Expand

    Es un buen juego, valió cada maldito segundo y centavo pagado. Quizá falla solo un poco en las físicas en batalla, pero lo arregla la historia, la calidad gráfica y los demás apartados que hacen de este un excelente juego, probablemente (en mi opinión) el mejor exclusivo de playstation de este año, no como TLOU2

    Sucker Punch really knocked it out of the park with this one.

    Ghost of Tsushima is an incredible game. The environment of the game world is absolutely stunning, it amazes me with the level of visuals they can squeeze out of the now dated hardware. The combat is extremely satisfying and the animations are really top notch. It makes every strike of the sword feel weighted and purposeful.

The combat is extremely satisfying and the animations are really top notch. It makes every strike of the sword feel weighted and purposeful. It rewards those who like to explore with items that can be found to further customize Jins armor, the look as well as amazing vistas and scenery. The fact you can play the majority of this game without a HUD just further immerses you into the game world.

    But a good game is nothing without a great and engaging story and this is where Ghost of Tsushima really shines. The story is fantastic and emotionally engaging. It does a great job of emotionally investing you into the main characters stories and Jins challenge with his Samurai honor. I don't want to reveal any spoilers so I will stop there.

    I honestly can't recommend this game enough and it's an experience that will stick with me for a long time. I am just looking for excuses to play it through again, here to hoping for a New Game +.

    In the meantime I eagerly await the newly announced 'Legends' multiplayer add on.

    with that being said the combat makes you feel so good after you learn the new moves to overcome any of the new foes they toss your way.

    parts that feel like drags (Hunting down fox dens, getting all the Hiku's, finding all the hidden shrines)
    but i didn't feel like it was to tasking if you did that as you pressed on with the story as you did the side stuff ( do not leave it all for end game YOU'LL get bored)

    All I have to say is, thank you, Sucker Punch. What an experience this game was. It combined elements from the usual "open world" dynamic with some perfectly new and unique features that I predict we will start to see a lot more as the next generation rolls in. A few things to note about this masterpiece:

    Graphics: 9.5/10 I cannot stress how much this pains me that it's not a 10/10,    All I have to say is, thank you, Sucker Punch. What an experience this game was. It combined elements from the usual "open world" dynamic with some perfectly new and unique features that I predict we will start to see a lot more as the next generation rolls in. A few things to note about this masterpiece:

    Graphics: 9.5/10
    I cannot stress how much this pains me that it's not a 10/10, but I have to be fair. The graphics are great, but I've noticed a couple clipping issues with certain outfits. Nothing huge, but enough to notice. Other than that, this game is stunningly beautiful from start to finish. You will end up with several background-worthy screenshots by the time you reach 100%, guaranteed.

    Narrative 10/10
    The main storyline is well thought out and creatively woven into Japanese history (much of which I was learning for the first time). The supporting characters get fleshed out beautifully and you end up with some very touching moments along the way.

    Protagonist: 10/10
    By the end, Jin Sakai will be one of your favorite video game characters without a doubt. For me, he's right up there with the Arthur Morgan's, Joel Miller's, and Peter Parker's of the video game world.

    Characters/Interactions: 10/10
    Like i mentioned above, this game is sprinkled with interesting characters throughout each Act. Usually, I hate open world side quests where it's just a cheesy talking-head-style conversation like "Help! I can't find my brother!", "Okay, I will help!" And I understand that this is just the nature of a lot of games, but I think GoT does a few small things that enhance these moments so they carry a little more weight, i.e. cut scene camera angles, multi-step side quests.

    Villain: 10/10
    Khotun Khan provides some of the game's best moments and 100% deserves to be mentioned in this review. The way that he is also fictionally woven into Japanese history is creative and effective. Well done, Sucker Punch!

    Cutscenes/Editing 10/10
    There's A LOT to mention here. Right out of the gate, you are blessed with an intro that is sure to give you goosebumps. Throughout, there's a couple battle scenes that give "Battle of the Bastards" a run for it's money (shout out the other GoT! Except S8). The atmosphere of the game really captures you at the most random moments, for example, the short cut scene and score before you begin a duel *chefs kiss*. I'm leaving out a lot of stuff here, but I'll let you experience these things for yourself!

    Gameplay 10/10
    The combat in this game is so satisfying. I'd put it right up there with God of War and Jedi Fallen Order, which IMO have some of the most fun combat in recent years. I love the fact that you have multiple options when approaching a fight. Most of the time, I took the aggressive approach and then adjusted if I found something else to be more effective. Also, the animations during combat are so f****** cool! There are a lot of little things that this game does well to enhance your experience too. Things like no HUD, petting foxes, impressive platforming dynamic, playing the flute, the haiku feature, etc. I could go on and on!

    Overall I'll give this game a 9.5/10 with my only (VERY minor) gripe being about the graphics and the clipping issue that I kept noticing. This PS generation is definitely going out with a bang with this one, and you will not want to miss it.    … Expand

Начиная с сюжета, где в угоду исторической справедливости отсутствует социальная (впрочем, как и во всей игре) и заканчивая графикой и атмосферой средневековой Японии и острова Цусимы. Боевка это лучшее, что есть на данный момент в подобных играх, и дело не только в механике боев, которая является квинтэссенцией лучших элементов из систем типа "удар-мощный удар-блок-уворот" доведенной до совершенства, но и антуражем, в частности звуком, анимацией, применением различных стилей (они здесь реально работают и необходимы!) - в итоге каждый удар катаной ощущается прямо-таки физически. Стелс есть, он интересен за счет того, что быстр, ненапряжен и является по сути дополнением к бою лицом к лицу. ОТдельное спасибо Sucker Punch за систему сбора ресурсов - Дзин умеет их собирать на бегу и на скаку, не останавливаясь и не тратя время игрока на ненужную анимацию. Прокачка, по крайней мере на высоком уровне сложности, необходима, способности продуманы и среди них нет ненужных (ну кроме наверное помогающих находить различные места интереса на карте).
    И вишенькой ко всему этому геймплейному великолепию - сюжет и атмосфера игры. Сюжет про то, чем готов поступится человек для достижения важной для него цели, про честь и доблесть, без всяких повесточек.
    Атмосфера... Это первая игра в открытом мире, где мне хочется передвигаться пешком, любуясь пейзажами, встречая по пути какие-то интересные места и события. При чем все это работает на максимальное соответствие месту и времени, что способствует максимальному погружению в игру. Кстати, разработчики выполнили обещание, и в игре нет однотипных и набивших оскомину сайдквестов - каждый проработан отдельно и имеет свою сюжетную арку. Особенно приятно, что даже захват аванпостов обыгран в духе "случайно кого-то спас, он рассказал, что там-то есть монгольский лагерь, в котором плохие монголы как-то (за 20 часов игры всегда по разному) гадят местным".
    Из минусов отмечу только камеру а-ля Dark Souls и невменяемый таргетлок (да он здесь есть, но настолько не очевидный, что лучше бы его вообще не было, ибо о его существовании игра тебе напоминает только тогда, когда ты хочешь бить ближайшего противника, а перс лочится на чувака вообще в другой стороне).
    Короче, я в восторге, чего давно не было, тем более от Сони-эксклюзивов, надо брать!    … 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.

    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.
