    One of the best combat systems ever. This is what Assassin's Creed should have evolved into. The open world is a little empty, repetitive, and generic, and I wish the game was a bit more challenging and you didn't become overpowered so quickly, but it's a fantastic overall experience. That combat!!!

    A wonderful game. Pkaying it is enjoyable, often being lost in its beauty scenery or the combats.
    Story is interesting and often rewarding. The sude missions, although after some tine a bit repetitive, are so interesting at the same time. Japanese culture well thought of. Happy to have fi ished it. Well done to the tean and its effords

    Take 10 points as a basis - a masterpiece:
    - 1 point for a horse not able to swim;
    - 1 point for hacky animation of movement in tunnel; - 1 point for uniform and long animations of interaction with altars, ponds, dialogues.


    The plot is good, the gameplay is nice and the combat system is very good.
    The most important thing in the game is the atmosphere of feudal Japan.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really didn’t love this game. I thought it was a fun Assasin’s Creed game in Japan. The heavy handed combat tutorials(that will stop combat the entire game if you use the “wrong” stance) made the combat a hollow experience. I found the narrative incredibly obnoxious; it was so cool to stop combat to watch a scene about how dishonorable Jin felt he was being. The open world was interesting but overall not that stand out; the game offers very little replay value. By the end of the game combat is basically pointless because you’re an unstoppable force. The game was visually impressive and controls work; stealth is as much of a meme as it is in any stealth game. It was fun but not a console generation defining masterpiece.… Expand

During Stand Off's you can have environment assets block your view making it impossible to know when to let go. The game becomes very repetitive after Act 1, map icons for things you haven't completed yet are a "lighter grey" vs a completed one which is a slightly "darker grey". The game is good, but it could have been GREAT if they had spent the time with Testers to test all the bugs that players keep finding. And also adding in quality of life things like different colored icons on the map and considering people who are color blind. Those grey's are even harder to see. Is the game worth playing?

    Perhaps the best game of the PS4 generation. Certainly inside the top 5. Belongs up there with God of War, Bloodborne, Spider-Man, Uncharted, TLOU, Horizon Zero Dawn.

    In this past generation, Sony has done a pretty killer job with their exclusive games.

It really feels like they’ve done a great job with exclusives for the better part of the last decade, but their recent output on the PlayStation 4 has really pushed them to the forefront. Where Xbox, in my eyes, has struggled to come through with consistently great exclusives on the Xbox One (outside of the “Ori” games and “Sunset Overdrive”), Sony overcame a slow start and has put out tons of quality exclusives. Some of my personal favorites have included “Until Dawn,” “Horizon Zero Dawn” “Detroit: Become Human” “Spider-Man” and, as controversial as it’ll be to say this, “The Last of Us Part II” (there are quite a few I haven’t played like “Bloodborne,” “Nioh,” and “Gravity Rush 2,” but I do plan to play games like “inFAMOUS Second Son,” “The Last Guardian,” “Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End,” and “God of War,” for example). And with the new consoles quickly approaching, it seems we’re looking at what is essentially the swan songs of the eighth generation. Months ago, Microsoft gave us what I believed was theirs with the stunning “Ori and the Will of the Wisps” (though we still have “Battletoads” to look forward to later this month), and now Sony has given us what looks to be their final exclusive title in “Ghost of Tsushima,” a samurai adventure developed by the good people at Sucker Punch Productions, responsible for the excellent “Sly Cooper” series, as well as the also-beloved “inFAMOUS” franchise. And as a full-stop for eighth-generation exclusives (it seems), this is a pretty great note to end on!
    “Ghost of Tsushima” serves in a lot of ways as a tribute to Japanese culture, while also being a pretty loving homage to Japanese films, specifically those made by legendary director Akira Kurosawa. It does a very respectful job, and while I wouldn’t say the writing or characters absolutely floored me, I still think both elements were good. The visuals in the game are absolutely breathtaking, and in every aspect, the game looks beautiful. I also love the cinematography throughout the game, and I think it’s quite an incredible attention to detail that the game added a black-and-white “Kurosawa mode” that adds to the game’s loving homage to the director’s filmography. The gameplay is also something to behold: the controls are extremely fluid, the combat is precise and layered without being too overwhelming to deal with, and the stealth sections are suitably tensing. This is a game that does a lot of things right, and serves as yet another reason why Sony’s first-party games have been among the best of this generation.
    I will say, though, that I did have a few problems with the game that slightly detracted from the experience. A few minor gameplay frustrations did bog things down a bit for me (the lack of a great “lock-on” to enemies, and the game presenting dialogue options to make you think choices matter when they don’t), but I would say my biggest issue was that I wish the game’s open-world activities were more interesting. While the world itself was certainly beautiful to look at, it didn’t really feel all that exciting to me, and there were definitely times where it did feel like I was just going through a checklist of objectives. Most of the time, when playing open-world games, I’m totally okay with traveling across the game’s world to get to my next story mission, but with “Ghost of Tsushima,” there were definitely points where I felt more inclined to simply fast-travel closer to the story missions to mitigate traveling. The game had the feeling of going through the motions that open-world games tend to go through, and while I’m not sure who will agree, I would’ve been interested to see how this would’ve faired as a linear game.
    Even so, “Ghost of Tsushima” is a pretty great adventure. Even if it’s not my absolute favorite PlayStation 4 exclusive game, it’s a real testament to Sony’s excellent output this generation that a game can be this good, and still not be one of my favorites that they’ve put out this generation. It’s a suitably beautiful swan song to the PlayStation 4, and another adventure that epitomizes Sony’s dominance this generation. If you haven’t played it yet, I highly recommend you give it a shot. As a way of waving goodbye to the PlayStation 4 (at least in terms of exclusives), this is quite a way to go out. Thank you, PlayStation 4, for so many wonderful memories and great exclusive titles, I hope the PlayStation 5 keeps up the amazing work.

    Because I'm a trophy hunter, I had to finish Maneater before starting on Ghost of Tsushima. Maneater was ok as fun. Anyway, that's why I'm a little late to the party on this one.

    This game is actually a game I wanted to share some thoughts about, unlike Maneater which is just some great mindless fun. Right off the bat I thought Ghost of Tsushima took you right into the action, and I loved it. I didn't even know where we were but I also yelled "For >Tsushima!!" as I charged down the hillside. My point is I was pulled into the setting and story right away.

    What really grasped me at first was the stunning use of color, saturation and contrast. Every aspect of the graphics generally really wowed me. Then I got to experience the combat as a samurai. Before I got to explore any of the skills, learn any of the skills I thought the combat was satisfying. Even more so with the following perks. As the title sugguest you can be the "ghost". Which is also really satisfying. People say it's like Assassins Creed but in a samurai setting. That's like saying Doom is like Call of Duty with demons. No, Ghost of Tsushima feels alot more like it's own. Not like Assassins Creed or any other game with stealth elements. Sometimes the game forces you to do tasks as the ghost. Like telling you that if you get spotted it's game over. Although I love the stealth gameplay aswell as the thrilling face to face combat. I wish the game offered you more RPG elements in that regard. I think I should be able to always go the "honorable" way if I choose to. I played through the story with both the samurai gameplay aswell as the ghost on hard difficulty and I enjoyed every moment of it.

    Call me sappy, but I had some tears 3 times during the story. The game really explore every main characters and make you understand them and somewhat care about them. I thought they built their characters superbly. There was 1 or 2 characters I didn't really care about, but I think that might be subjective. The story overall was perfect and I couldn't ask for more. And this review has gone on for long enough, I just really wanted to share my opinions because this game really suprised me in alot of ways.
    One thing I thought was kinda bad for me as a trophy hunter is that the game has an obvious armor with traits you feel like you have to use if you are a trophy hunter. Because it gives you 60% map unfogging and the controiller shakes when you're near a secret or collectible. I never used any other armor or explore different combinations because of that trophy hunt. But if you don't really care about trophies, this is not an issue at all. The armor and items gives you plenty of different choices and combinations you can explore and tailor to your playstyle.

    I loved this game, and it's absolutely a high contender in my game of the year list. I thought it was beautifully done and the story was excecuted excellently. I'm hoping for a sequel in the near future!. Great job Sucker Punch!    … Expand

    On top of that an AMAZING, tight, solid, samurai gameplay. Playing as Jin is a blast, either as a stealthy ninja or a proud samurai. Killing the enemies never gets old, quite the opposite; the game keeps presenting us with stylish, gory finishing blows that almost paint the screen red. It's a great samurai game that looks like a great samurai movie.

    I've been tired of open world games for a while. Could not finish AC Odyssey, barely finished Days Gone. But Ghost? Could not put it down. I cared about those characters, their stories of vengeance and honor; I wanted to push forward, to clear enemy compounds or to just find another cool piece of vanity gear.

    Ghost of Tsushima gave me unforgettable 45+ hours of fun. And when I finally put it down, I was mesmerized, captivated but that amazing story that I got to be part of. A beautiful, almost perfect swan song for the Playstation 4.    … Expand

La forma en la que Jinn lucha por detener a los mongoles teniendo que desafiar a su tío, dejando a un lado su honor como Samurai y convirtiéndote en el Ghost me gusto bastante. Por el lado de las subtramas, cada personaje se vuelve mas "humano" a partir de ellas y vamos conociendo sus decisiones.

It's a solid 4/5 game with some great mechanics and also very generic open-world tropes that we have all seen and done before, albeit, SP have tried to breath some new life into these to make them more interesting. Since gaining the platinum trophy yesterday, here's what I did and didn't like about the game:

    Pros:
    - Graphically the game is immense with fantastic art direction. The facial animations and English voice work for main characters is also top notch
    - The combat is really good, some of the best 'grounded' sword combat I have ever seen in a game. For the entirety of the game (some 30+ plus hours if you're going for the platinum) combat remains a delight and doesn't get boring. Towards the end of the game, with all skills unlocked, you truly feel like a complete badass Samurai which is awesome.
    - The music in the game is great and really fits the whole serious Samurai Japanese theme
    - Lack of an in-game hud is a complete breath of fresh air into the open-world format. It means there is less clutter on screen, you aren't constantly looking at a mini-map and progression feels more natural and organic. The guiding wind mechanic is really cool. There is a health bar, etc, when you enter combat or when you select weapons but they don't get in the way and clutter the game like something from Assassins Creed for example.
    - The standoff mechanic is fun, seeing you march into an enemy encampment and just challenge everyone to a duel. It never gets old.

    Cons:
    - Combat may be brilliant but the stealth is only bang average. It's standard fair with assassinations, using our bow for headshots, throwing chimes to distract guards. It's not bad, just average, something we have seen a million times in AC and other stealth action games. Enemy AI is also not the smartest. You could wipe out 3-4 guards in combat and one of their fellow Mongol grunts within earshot will just ignore the entire thing.
    - I wasn't a huge fan of the story nor the cast of characters. Jin (the main character) is very one dimensional and not much to him other than stoic Samurai survivor slowly unlearning his culture to learn new ways to fight. That's it. The other supporting characters are also very serious and one dimensional. The story consists of gain allies, fight big boss miss big boss, gain more allies, fight big boss, miss big boss and then gain final allies, etc. Not much else to it apart from that. Side quests are plentiful, sometimes interesting, but mainly generic. Speak to NPC, go to location to find lost brother, etc, fight a bunch of the same Mongols, and then return with said brother or item. They start off fun, but if going for the platinum you have to do dozens and dozens of these and it gets very tedious towards the end of the game.
    - Collectables are quite fun to collect in this unlike AC. Fox dens, haiku's and shrines really do stand out but they too become tedious to collect all towards the end of the game.
    - The game can be played in Japanese but the voice work for this is very poor. The game was obviously made by an American studio for western English speaking audiences so the Japanese voice acting has been dubbed over character models. It looks like a poor movie dubbing. I personally, think it should have been made with the Japanese voice acting as the priority.

    Again, the game is a solid 4/5 for me, I really liked it and would recommend it. Combat is utterly fantastic, graphics are brilliant, and it's the closest I have ever felt to becoming an all powerful Samurai. I feel like the game would have been better if it dropped the standard open world mechanics and if it was more akin to the likes of God of War or Last of Us's story based linear progression. I think the story would have been more focused and had a bigger impact, which for me, is the reason why I play games in the first place.    … Expand

Side quests are just laughable and totally the same. Go there - kill some mongols - done. Hoku - baths - bamboo stands and other activitites help only a little bit. Petting an occasional fox brought some joy but thats it.
    - Story
    I can hardly recall a game that has a poorer and more primitive story than GOT. Even games like bloodborne or DS, even though not telling a single piece of story to a player managed to create some sort of meaning inside a game. Not here sadly. I am not even comparing GOT to titles like AC, Uncharted etc. etc.
    - Music
    Too ambient to be able to create an atmosphere. Just listen to a Diablo 1, Witcher 3 or TES Oblivion OST and you ll know what im talking about. Music is essential for the atmosphere - in GOT music is just there.
    - Atmosphere
    Non existent here. You wont ever feel anything special, you ll never want to live in Tsushima or even visit it.
    - Camera...ohhh that camera....The words i want to use explaining camera in this game should not be used publicly.
    - Dialogues
    Whoever wrote those "long and meaningful" dialogues should be sacked immediately. Do people really converse in 2-4 words sentences? I know its kinda Japanese thing to put as much information into a shortest phrase, but God, it is so boring.

    Overall i had to force myself to finish the game, to explore every single landmark and objective in the game, hoping that something will stir inside of me. But no. It is as incredibly beautiful and perfect graphically as its boring.    … Expand

    Um mundo aberto rico em detalhes, onde a exploração realmente vale a pena. Cada missão secundaria tem uma história legal e encantadora. É o jogo que melhor fez missões secundárias após The Witcher 3. Só não é 10 porque tem alguns problemas relacionados a bugs e um melhor polimento.

    Nota 9

    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.
