    The game does what Horizon zero dawn does a lot better if you liked HZD You're gonna love GOT , The gameplay is really fun and it has a lot of skills,stances,throwables ,special moves, and a lot of upgrades that keep the gameplay fresh and not repetitive i haven't finished the game yet and i am not making my expectations high but the story is quite decent and very interesting to the moment , the game has some problems that people tend to exaggerate about like the "camera" or the "AI" they're comparing the game to games like Tlou2 , The AI is not bad at all and it has some amazing details such as : When enemies find a dead body stabbed in the back their walk will change and if they were 4 enemies they will split up in 2 groups walking side by side it was presented in a way tgat may show the AI like it was bad but it ain't , The camera in combat could also be quickly fixed by the player side.

    Just so much fun! Can’t go wrong with amazing combat, incredible visuals, and a story with real value. Let me talk more about the visuals. They are stunning. Everything is crystal clear, and in extreme detail. Everything looks better than a movie, and like every frame was adjusted by an artist to look the best it possibly can.

    Que jogo foda! História, gráfico, jogabilidade e trilha sonora tudo perfeito. Sistema de combate desse jogo é muito bom. Eu que não tenho paciência nenhuma para platinar resolvi platinar esse jogo. Minha unica crítica vai pra dificuldade que mesmo no letal continua bem fácil. A câmera no começo atrapalha um pouco mas no decorrer do game você acaba acostumando.

    I was waiting for ghost of Tsushima forever, much longer than LoUP2. I am not over exaggerating when I say this game the best blade combat in any game I ever played. Every battle is thoroughly tactical and enjoyable.

    Soundtrack is addictive well produced within the game like how the music change when you are exploring and going into a fight.

    Story is well written and not only in the main story missions, the sub missions characters offers extra charm to the main campaign of the game often makes you sidetracked from your main objective.

    Overall.. I highly recommend this game to everyone who are looking for pure magic and awesome gameplay.

Este jogo é um beijo na boca nos amantes dos bushido, cenários lindos , designer das armaduras lindas , skins das espada e armaduras ótimas , o modo fotografia e perfeito consegue captar bem e tem muitas boas opções , o audio do jogo do ambiente e algo muito bom e gostoso demais ficar explorando no jogo, conhecer os cenários , as trilhas sonoras do jogo é uma delicia , nao fica na mente como em outros jogos mais é precisa te passa a impressão de estar no cenário de batalha. Eu categorizo o jogo de duas formas na questão gráfica ele é incrível ,lindo no macro so que o jogo falha no micro e sem cuidado nas pequenas coisas o que entristece um pouco mais nao afeta de forma alguma a gameplay. E por falar em game play ele é completo demais o sistema de batalha é algo gostoso , parry, quebra de postura , troca de postura , resumidamente ele é uma união dos melhores sistemas de batalha samurai da geração atual. O steath e algo bom porem nao é novo a gente ja viu isso jogos dessa geração .

    Ghost Of Tsushima is the most beautiful game I've ever played. In the runnings for favorite game of all time. GOTY hands down.
    I'm a pretty critical individual and don't review games too often - Ultimately, I would say 9.5/10, but the execution and extent of what they've accomplished with this title is deserving of perfect marks.

    Graphics/aesthetic - Often times I found myself traveling through the open-world in astonishment of its sheer beauty. No 2 places look the same, and there is a massive dynamic to the geography of the land of Tsushima.
    This game was able to take me away to a kind of "happy place" w/o causing analysis paralysis. Incredible.

    Audio - I'm a big sound guy and the soundtrack wasn't anything too memorable to me, but it was still killer. I really enjoyed how Sakai's flute was incorporated into the game, albeit seldomly. The score definitely helped "get me" at the end when transitioning into the credits. Beautiful.

    Story - Was incredible. A couple of parts made me go "hmm plot convenience/hole?" but those were few and far between.
    The game is true to a samurai's tale, which was a huge deal to me.

    Characters - Great development from beginning to end.

    Gameplay - My favorite game mechanics to date (for the most part). I love not having to wait for stupid animations when doing menial tasks like collecting bamboo or picking up linen. This is something that bothered me with titles like RedDead2 and Farcry5... like... why do I have to watch the character pick leaves or skin an animal every time? I have things to do. Please don't waste my time.
    However, just like in RD2, this game allows you to approach most situations however you like (stealth/aggressive) BUT sometimes makes you handle certain tales specific ways, which can confuse gamers... Especially if they are stoned... ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    Combat - is killer and makes you feel like a legit samurai. Super smooth and graceful. The way you level feel clean and gradual as well. The only gripe here is a lock-on system would have been beneficial. Especially for indoor combat. But ultimately I found it so fun that I can't even start to complain about that.
    Standoffs and the last stance you acquire are so pimpin when used in succession*

    Conclusion:
    Bravo Sucker Punch. Bravo. This game is truly phenomenal.
    Can't wait to see what's in store from you guys next!

    Critics giving this game an 8.3/10 discredits their ability to analyze a game from a player's non-bias perspective.
    Ghosts better beat "tlou2" (which got a 9.4 meta) for GOTY or we'll know there's some shady stuff going on behind the scenes - That game was a burning dumpster fire. This game is a timeless treasure.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Столь красивая игра, заслуживает свою оценку, а именно 10. Финальный бой с дядей Сакая был одним из самых красивых в жанре видеоигр. Нам рассказали историю от нерешительного мальчишки-самурая, до настоящего воина за свой народ, то есть "призрака Цусимы". И вся история становления "призраком" по-настоящему заставляет сопереживать главному герою. Эта игра точно должна понравится тем, кто любит японскую тематику. Expand

    This game is absolutely beautiful. The scenery is majestic, and there are hidden secrets everywhere. The story is epic, and each battle feels climatic. Normally I'd say bandit camps and other areas to clear are just filler, made to pad run time, but here, I look forward to finding them. It's worth it to do everything.

Also, neither here nor there, but Famitsu gave it a 40 out of 40, one of the very few western games to receive this praise. Expand

    A wonderful game and a must play for every samurai addict! Very artistic, it successfully combines elements from The witcher 3 and Assassin's creed odyssey but with a strong identity and a lot of complex ideas, clearly surpassing the assassin's creed series. Don't miss it!

    Solid open world with good additions and ideas. Great combat. Best looking game this generation. Very technically competent with very short loading times.

    For me, its the best ps4 game of 2020, and, maybe, the game of the year. It's like to play Kurosawa movie. All Game aspects from graphics to story are amazing. The level of immersion in culture of Japan is beyond praise. Give it a try.

    Love this game. It's beautifully made, has addicting/satisfying combat and good customisation. Been waiting for a good samarai game for awhile.

    My only nick pick is, I'm not fond of the leveling up symbol that appears in the middle of the screen after you execute someone, it gets in the way of the slow mo kill view.

    No matter how many little glitches are in it it would still be the prettiest game and the best combat system game i have ever played
    Tip: Play it in japanese even with bad lip syncing it's miles better than the English

Hope Sucker Punch introduce New Game + because it's definitely a game I can see myself playing again. Expand

    After recently playing Death Stranding and Last of Us 2, I wasn’t sure if this game would live up to my expectations. However, this game grows on you.

However, this game grows on you. For the first few hours I was unsure if I’d really enjoy this game, but after powering through that introduction, I am in love with this game. It doesn’t do anything brand new or exciting, but it is a great story and a really well done game! The combat feels GREAT and fresh and requires patience, skill and understanding of what works against who. The Ghost Weapons add another dynamic to that, there’s LOTS of skills that are useful so it doesn’t feel like you’ve got all of the skills you need early. The game does a good job of changing the combat dynamic throughout the game so it doesn’t get super repetitive. I am not typically a samurai fan, however, this game has made me one. Definitely well worth the money. I am about 25-30 hours into the game and just passed the first act into the second one, granted I’ve been really focusing on leveling my character and completing the side quests for rewards. The one downside or con to this game is that the NPC and side quest dialogue isn’t very compelling visually. The conversation is good, if you close your eyes the dialogue is great, but it doesn’t give you much visually in that aspect. That’s the only con I have so far. Other than that, this is a fun, exciting and well done game. Easily a GOTY candidate! Expand

    Gorgeous game, excellent combat and open world exploration. There is no mini-map, you use the wind as your guide. If you ever wanted to see what being a samurai might really be like, this is it. Many enemies are killed in one hit as normal humans would be, and most others are killed in 2-4 hits. Love the authenticity and the atmosphere. Fantastic work, Sucker Punch!

    This is one of the best open-world games ever. Absolutely gorgeous, and if you have surround sound, it's even more amazing. So many unique twists to an open world game that really makes it immersive. The game was inspired by Samurai films, and it shows in a big way. Sucker Punch pulled off a masterpiece for fans of the genre. It doesn't get any better than this.

    This game is criminally underrated! The fact it only has a single point above Death Stranding is absolutely disgraceful! It has such a great story, excellent visuals, it’s fun to explore the island, combat is engaging and challenging at times, has a lot of customization, collectibles, and has extremely fast load times. Support Sucker Punch; they put so much love and effort into this game!

    The best samurai game in a long time and a great fun for all, who love action. Love for Japan and its history is a big plus, but its knowledge is not necessary to enjoy every minute of this beautiful game. [Issue#305]

    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.
