    Amazing game. 10/10 for its story, graphics, combat, game design, music, everything. This is my GOTY (if excluding P5R...).

    Лучшая игра на данный момент, сочетающая в себе механики таких хитов как Секиро, Ведьмак 3 и Horizon zero dawn и с превосходной визуализацией и графикой и это всё в открытом мире. P.S. The Last of Us 2 отдыхает.

Every aspect in GoT is shouting polish. This is the game that will set the standards for all open world games right now. It's like Sucker Punch just knows what annoys the heck out of people in other open world games and just streamline them. One-button jump into photo mode, controlling weather, time of day, even particles in photo mode( believe me you will be spending a lot of time in photo mode), one of the best intro from a video game ever, each part of the island lets you experience different seasons and scenery so you will not get bored of the scenery. Combat!!!! At first you will think the combat is simple, but when they throw in the stances and you realize how many ways you could kill your enemies and be creative. The combat design is to enable the players to feel powerful and to be creative. Sucker Punch, you bunch of genius!!!! I strongly recommend everyone who loves this game to go replay infamous series if you have the chance. I replayed all the infamous just to prepare for this game and this game just blew my mind how much Sucker Punch improved since second son. Also, CHOICES are important. Let the player make their own damn choice in the story is very crucial (unlike some other title). It's like Sucker Punch knows exactly what other players suffered one month ago with another title and let people enjoy a way better game in every aspect (writing, character development, combat, graphics, etc). And now to top it off, Sucker Punch announced a FREE MULTIPLAYER UPDATE. Free DLC add on has never been seen since Valve games. And yet all the xbox fanboys try to paint an "Anti-consumer" picture for Sony? Nice try! Also Naughty Dog cuts out multiplayer from the base game for TLOU2 to be a standalone. If you ask me, $60 is more justified for a full enjoyable single player experience for Ghost of Tsushima with icing on the cake when they add the multiplayer free content. Sucker Punch is just reading the minds of their players so well. YES, they actually listened to feedback, that's why the multiplayer is based on the mythology. Please Naughty Dog, we miss the old you, the one that does not push agenda and actually make a damn good complete single player+multiplayer experience. Even Sony knows how much of a better game is Ghost and release it as the finale of this generation.… Expand

    Amazing climate of samurai-era japan. Not a single mission feels like a side quest. All of them have a clever(often dark or tragic) twist, that makes them more interesting than some main quests in other games. Innovation that came with the “gps” system makes it much more fun and immersive. Combat just as satisfying as sekiros’ but much more accessible and arguably more fluid and fun.Amazing climate of samurai-era japan. Not a single mission feels like a side quest.

    The gaming world was not prepared for Ghost of Tsushima from Sucker Punch. They wanted it, they dreamt of it, but they did not know what it was, or what form it would come in the shape of. It would arrive on the 17th July, 2020 and it was in the shape of Jin Sakai. For me, an eternity of let downs and disappointments now over. Furthermore, the search is over! my gaming journey is done. You could say i'm retired from searching.

    I will always be the first to admit, i am not the best gamer in the world. I am a dreamer. i take on a game and i make it my own and let it work for me. Many a time i have given up on a game, because the faults were too much to turn a blind eye to. Yet, at the age of 41, married with my first born child merely a few weeks old and a myriad of life issues, bills and problems facing me...i find myself waking in the early hours to get back to the island of Tsushima.

    Sure, there's faults. But, i have a big imagination. Let's take a discussion i read about no hit-detection on bamboo trees. It doesn't matter, because if i didn't read that, i wouldn't know. i was already walking around them. i was already making my own movie heaven. I'm Jubai Kipigami fighting the blind swordsman in the bamboo forest, i'm Kôji Yakusho preparing to take on an entire village of enemies, i'm Tatsuya Nakadai walking through the cemetery for a momentous duel.

    For that matter, the tension in the air at a duel is something else. My straw hat, jossling in the wind. My longbow sways and flutters as gusts of wind pass by. The pampas grass rasps across the hills beyond me. The world constantly moves as Samurai and Mongol remain still, waiting for the first move. Blink and you would miss it, amongst the cacophony of vision and sound. The moment is here, you are in that Kurusawa movie, take it all in as a torrent of blood swathes across the screen and spatters the ground at my feet. Would you believe i have only been playing for 2 days?

    This game is the ultimate Samurai open-world game and it has blown other open-worlds out of the water. Not only have Sucker Punch written a love letter to Japan, they have written a love letter to Playstation and it's gamers.

    It is a 10. The story is slow but the characters little by little they start to show their colors, there is a good narrative, some side quests are sad and other even funny, but maintain you interested and give more background to the island. The graphics are the limit of the generation, pushing all limits of the PS4 pro. And the gameplay could be better but it is fun to play and easy to conquer.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. No spoilers here... This game is amazing so far! I'm not a huge fan of cutscenes and PlayStation storytelling(waste of money IMO). The focus is always the gameplay for me. Once you get past the boring intro movie (over an hour) the game actually starts. And man, the exploration is amazing. It actually makes you want to explore(a lot like botw). I'm a big dark souls, bloodborne, and Sekiro fan. Have beaten them all on new game plus. But this game on normal is harder to me for some reason. I kept dying to normal enemies. Had to dial it down to easy. Plobably because dodging mechanic is weird and somewhat broken in this game. I love the atmosphere, the quests, and sense of wonder. This game is way better than red dead redemption 2, that is for sure. That game just put me to sleep.… Expand

    I have fun doing stealth, samurai combat and duels. There is problem with camera (sometimes I lose combat because of it) but it doesn’t ruin the fun. Most of the times it works.
    All the small details in this game are well crafted. I care mostly about the small details. It’s great fun!

    The Combat on the game is really good too how each fight you have to switch your stance in order to defeat enemies and how you chose to engage the enemy is down to you choice you can either take them out stealth wise which can be very Satisfying or you can fight them head on and that's another thing I want to point about this game when it comes to the story of this game at the end you have a choice on what you want to do at the end of the game something we never got on TLOU 2.

Compared to the witcher or Red Dead Redemption what i really prefered in Ghost of Tsushima is, that there is no urgency and Quest Bombing of side activities. Remember coming into a new town in Witcher 3 while in a Quest and 20 People runnning asking for some Urgent Side Mission you have to do? It really broke the emersion for me always to be thrown into new quest and then while i´m doing the Quest getting 3 new Quests. Its was really annoying. GoT gives you new Quests of course but none of them have immenent urgengy, "Quickly, go ther and help or everybody dies" like it had in the other games.
    The visuals are just stunning and really beautiful. The Quest are interesting. They get sometimes a bit repetitive but the game comensates that with a big variety of tackeling the Quest.

Truly a masterpiece that builds upon its predecessors and listens to the recommendation from fans. FFXV was massive and epic but got bogged down in a bunch of disconnected "run and fetch" quests that made the player lose their connection to the story. GoT weaves the all the quests, main and side, together masterfully. I look forward to going on them, not trudging through them, completing them for completions sake like in FFXV.

    Horizon Zero Dawn was a lot of fun but for some reason just didn't hook me and in HZD and FFXV I found myself looking at the minimap and moving a triangle through a maze COMPLETELY ignoring and missing incredibly impressive and detailed landscapes. GoT did away with maps and cleverly added a "follow the wind" mechanism that is actually part of the story. Now I travel the island, completely aware of my surroundings, often with my mouth agape.

    Another "lessons learned" GoT uses is not getting stuck in the trees. There are so many open world games, especially when using a horse or vehicle, where you get stuck in the trees and it is annoying AF to navigate. So much so, you don't even use the conveyance anymore. GoT does away with this. The landscape is still dotted with an assortment of vegetation but you walk or ride right through them. It REALLY improves gameplay and makes exploring fun instead of tiresome, frustrating and tedious.

    The previous examples may seem fairly specific but that is because the obvious stuff, gameplay, graphics, story, and soundtrack are all simply amazing. I was reluctant to belabor the obvious and probably wouldn't even have bothered to write this had it not been for little details SuckerPunch included that I really appreciated. I wanted to make sure there's at least a chance someone from SuckerPunch noticed that there are players that appreciate their efforts, even the subtle ones.

    Just an unequivocal must purchase for any gamer.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off, The story isn't particularly interesting. It's more of a means to an ends, which honestly didn't bother me whatsoever. There has to be a bunch of enemies for the samurai to fight, so why not have the mongols invade? Makes sense and delivers the action on a regular basis.

    Some people may say the game is a bit derivative of assassin's creed or even something like red dead redemption, but don't let that scare you away. There are many minor details this game has included that make it stand out. First of all the combat is quite different than most games I have played as it requires you to change your technique depending on the type of enemy you are fighting. It also feels very real. I believe I am swinging a sword when I'm fighting enemies. You get that sense of connection with it which is great.

    In addition there's cool side quests that are very unique and quests aren't necessarily just go fetch this or talk to this person. They are mini stories that have a beginning middle and end. Each quest feels more like a storyline rather than a chore.

    Ultimately, the best thing about the game is how gorgeous it is. The landscapes are incredible and there is a fantastic screenshot system which allows you to edit images with lots of options. You'll never get bored of riding your horse through the pampas plants, and there's enough discoverable locations to keep you busy for a long time.    … Expand

You are really watching a classic Japanese warrior movies while you are playing. The action is cool, fancy and gorgeous. The scene looks fantastic with 1000% Japanese styles.

    Ghost of Tsushima is a game that people have been asking to be made for the last 10 years.
    Given that we wanted a samurai game based in Japan, it was only natural to assume that Assassins Creed would be brand name behind it. However... AC has changed over the years to accommodate the popular open world formula, leaving behind its combat mechanics that made it so well known. And so...

    Sucker Punch took that base platform and ran with it, pushing those combat mechanics further than before. But this time, stealth is optional, not preferred. In fact, the blade on blade combat takes the spotlight as we live out a long awaited fantasy in a heavily romanticized location.

You truly are untouchable. one thing i thought to my self while playing assassins creed was why do they keep sending mercenaries. I've killed like a million of them surely they would just refuse come if they know they're gonna die.

    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.
