After how big of a let down the last of us 2 was it’s a breath of fresh air to play a game with such an amazingly original story, gorgeous scenery, and unbeatable gameplay! If you plan on getting this game clear a week or two out of your schedule because it’ll be difficult to put the controller down.

It definitely deserves game of the year. I hope I’m not spoiling anything. If you haven’t played this, you need to go to wherever its is you get games and get it.

There are a few quirks with this game, however. When playing the game with in Japanese with English subtitles, it’s like an old Godzilla movie, in this case, the original voiceover is English but the dub is Japanese. It’s not too major, but it takes a bit away from the immersion. The cutscenes aren’t the best, as the characters (mostly Jin) speak with no emotion and little to no body language. I’m not worried about the cutscenes though because the rest of the game makes up for it. Moving on to combat, it is a bit repetitive. You use the same moves over and over again, but the combat is still fun and decently challenging. The duels, however, are pretty hard. I think the reason they were hard for me is because I rushed and tried to get in as many hits as I could, but the right way is to play strategically. Now, visually, this game is really good, but there are some things left with bad textures. Some parts of specific armor phases through other parts, which is kind of annoying. The animation for putting away the bow is the only REALLY noticeable thing. It seems like no effort was put into it, but I don’t use the bow much, so it doesn’t bother me a lot. Even through all the quirks, this game is really good. At first I thought the story was a bit generic, but I soon realized it wasn’t. I don’t rate games, but this one was too good, so I have to rate it. Expand

    The more I played the more and more I fell in love with the feel and atmosphere this game offers. It has slower methodical pace, like people in feudal Japan would have lived, and yet there are excitement and wonder around every corner. This is the first open-world game I have played in a while where I felt like the side missions actually added to and complimented everything you are trying to accomplish in the game. I felt connected not only to the characters, but also the world they lived in . Combat is so smooth and easy to do, but takes time and effort to master, especially in the later stages and higher difficulty settings. The standoff system grows with you as enemies try to fake you out to get you to jump to soon, what a touch.

    It is of course not without it's flaws. A lack of a lock-on system in combat is not game-breaking, yet I sometimes found myself struggling to hit the person I wanted in larger crowds of enemies. The enemy AI in the game for stealth is at times laughable....like standing up from the tall grass, in front of an enemy, using my bow to kill his partner and then ducking back in the grass, and he loses track of me instantly like I was never there. I really wanted there to be a choice system like other sucker punch games, and I can see why they might want to do something different, but I think it really would have added to the way you play the game...as your legend grows.

    This game is easily the best game I have played in the last two years and only comes in a close second to God of War for best PS4 exclusive ever. I really hope that this is not a one-off game, as there is so much they can do with sequels in this games. PS4 can end its cycle with honor after this wonderful journey.

    While it’s on par with most current gen games and not necessarily outstanding in fidelity, the art is absolutely stunning, parts of the game world are so beautiful I just stopped to admire in the highly detailed photo mode which allows you to fine tune every detail to your liking.

    Gameplay:
    It reconciled aspects of the souls genre with something more accessible like AS. Creed, however it adds its own flavour with its unique samurai techniques. Throwing a smoke bomb,m to blind a group, sneaking up on the leader, killing the others with quick Kunai and then finishing off with a brutal special technique, the cool moments are endless and player choice is empathised through the ability to switch between Ghost and Samurai seamlessly. As an open world game this borrows heavily from Breath of the Wild, minimising any kind of UI and creating a very organic feeling world in which discoveries are endless, separating it the run of the mill games in an exhausted genre.

    Story :

    This is heavily rooted in Japanese lore and shows great respect for the culture, it’s hard to to be charmed by the Samurai dialogue and anime like themes, ultimately it feels like a very well done traditional movie which lends the game a great atmosphere. Unlike the Last of Us 2 the game doesn’t go for unnecessary shock value or excessive gore, the story feels much more believable and the violence contextually appropriate, leading to a much more consistent, principled and satisfying narrative. Perhaps player choice isn’t integrated as well as in the Infamous series for the sake of telling a cohesive plot, though the theme of conflict between the ghost and the samurai code is compelling enough. Overall, this is the best PlayStation exclusive since God of War and for those disappointed with TLOU2 this may be the refreshment you need!

There was a lot of missed opportunity in character building and story-telling, like the epic battle with Masako could have been a great conflict moment but the only plus point was the epic background scenery during that fight.

    Other than those mentioned, I think the game excels at all other areas.
    Graphic, weather and environment: Mesmerizing.
    Character design, the world building ( realistic ancient Japan setting +++) and the showcase of the Japanese culture: Well presented.
    Stealth: great tools with acceptable AIs, felt like a Ninja doing them.
    Exploration: lots of activities that are meaningful and not too repetitive. Totally uplifted by the super awesome scenery.
    Melee Combat: my favourite part of the game. Improved and inspired by Souls-Bourne but with their own unique twist. Swinging the blade as Jin feels like a total badass.

    Sucker Punch is approaching this game with more of a down to earth setting but very cinematic presentation. Definitely Kurosawa inspired but it works really great as the game's major element. This makes each standoff, dual and boss fight epic AF.

    Definitely play this game. I bought my PS4 for this and God of War. Both of them totally lived up to my expectation.

    I just wanna start this review off by saying the first hour of gameplay doesn't even scratch the surface of what's in store for the game. You can find more and more ways to entertain yourself whether you're going for an honourable samurai or a dishonourable ghost or a little in-between you'll find yourself having fun the graphics are vibrant and the photomode is really something special

    Man, I so so love this game! 5 hours in and I'm truly baffled by it...
    It has taken my breath away.
    I'm playing it on Japanese language and it really gives the whole game an extra dimension.
    Don't doubt, buy it!

    I've been waiting for a game like this for 20 years. Ghost of tsushima is hell of a game.
    Gameplay : the gameplay is really fast and challenging. You have lots of different skill to choose from.
    Story : so far I liked side quests more than story missions, some of side quests are really awesome specially that ghost mission in woods.

    Ghost of Tsushima es un juego precioso, los paisajes te invitan a explorar y a perderte en el vasto mundo de tsushima.
    El combate es magistral, la historia es profunda y los personajes tienen un gran desarrollo.
    La banda sonora, el sonido de ambiente, los sonidos en la batalla y la trayectoria el doblaje en japonés son excelentes. Súper recomendable este juego, para mi un 10/10 sin dudarlo.

    I'll keep it very short. It has the best world design of any video game I've played and the main + side stories are very compelling. The atmosphere is unmatched. The combat is deep. It has some minor flaws, but the great things are much bigger in number.

    What a Masterpiece! Solid 10. It may be unpolished at some level but what a unique experience. This is not only the samurai experience I have been waiting for, its so much more. I loved the Jin Tale and the execution at every level. Man what a blast!

    After 10 hours into the game , I've gotta say it's AMAZING! This is the only game after Gta5 that I've played on release date and I've been hooked since. The katana fights are deliberate and cathartic , you need skills to pull it off. No button mashing. The world is beautiful and ripe for exploring. The graphics are just stunning! Amazing game SUCKER PUNCH!

    Great open world game with an amazing setting. Some may compare to Assassin's Creed, which is true for maybe Origins/Odyssey but after 20+ hours play time I'd say it's closer to the newer Tomb Raiders with a huge Skyrim sense of exploration.

The game mechanics for the character and even the horse that you ride are smooth, which makes for very enjoyable gameplay. The game was designed beautifully and almost every location that your character passes through on the island of Tsushima is impressively scenic. 11 out of 10, with an extra point for perfection, this game is great!

    I never review games - I came to review this one.

    Pros:
    - Open world isn't a bunch of filler junk, it all feels meaningful and progressive overall. I HATE open world games! It's always "Please go collect 10 bear pelts whlle my world is burning".
    I LOVE this open world, though. Everything is meaningful and built into the story. Every place has a story or pushes you to a side-quest that feels meaningful and intertwined. It's not just "go hunt some robots for the hunters lodge because this is easy filler to build" - It FEELS meaningful. It feels like a good balance.

    -Combat and leveling is done right - Not just becoming a meat shield or hitting harder... you actually gain new abilities, get stronger, learn new things, and then can take down enemies using those new things. I LOVE how this intertwines with the story - that he needs to learn ways outside the traditional samurai code to defeat the enemies that have studied their ways.

    -Combat is done right. It's a fine balance between assassins creed boringness and not so frustrating as dark souls where you just die sometimes because there was a monster around that corner.

    -Story is well voice acted, I love where it's going, and I love the world building

    -I LOVE the minimalist HUD. Thank you. Finally a game that immerses you. A good HUD is often overlooked! The way they integrate pathfinding into the wind is a great example of getting rid of waypoint silliness.

    -Music and sound is amazing. The intersection between music and gameplay here has given me goosebumps multiple times. The score is top notch, one of the best I've listened to in a long time.

    -This game is THOUGHTFUL. In the story, at one point, his uncle says his father's spirit is in the sword and the winds will guide him. The waypoint system is by flicking up the touch pad and the wind guides you to your next journey. In real life, this story isn't true and the mongols were wiped out by two hurricans - KamiKaze - God's wind. They are having trouble with the Mongols because they know how the Samurai operate - and leveling is based on him learning new skills outside the way of the samurai to defeat his enemies by finding new ways to defeat their enemies. You don't get stronger through stats and weapons necessarily, but a ton of new cool skills that help defeat these specific enemies as you grow and learn about them - you level up by killing AND spying, etc. That is some top notch game design, and I continue to find gems like this as I play.

    Cons
    -They made some odd choices for the sake of the open world. I'm glad it doesn't take 10 years to travel across like breathe of the wild, but it's also odd that a peaceful village is a 4 minute horse ride away from an enemy fort. That DOES fit with the story, but you have to suspend your disbelief a little here for the sake of avoiding a ton of boring travel

    -no matter the language the mouths don’t match the words. They should’ve stuck to Japanese mouth animations and let the others just deal with it. It seems like failing all animation options was a poor design choice.

    -poor choices on where to “store weapons”. Just sling it around my shoulder or something. Whipping a bow out of your butthole seems silly.

    Most complains or cons are pretty minor so I’m not going to knock it down for these items

    Graphics
    10/10. Clearly one of the most visually stunning games we've ever seen.

    Gameplay
    9/10 Wonderful designed weaved in with story, not stupid bullet sponges, and not a bunch of crappy filler.

    Music/Sound
    10/10 - Amazing design and combinations

    Story/Style/Writing
    9/10 - Solid story, great presentation, very well done stylistically and clearly designed to a very deep level

    Every 0/0 review I see is "game is good but I hate waiting 36 hours FU metacrticic" Or "Game is good but it's not RDR2". Are you kidding me userscores? Get rela.

    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.
