The game humbly introduces a graphical phenomenon that will have you at awe with its very diverse landscapes while accompanied by a fascinating soundtrack that rivals none. The ambiance does great job of reminding you that the world is very much alive; the sound of thunder as the darkness roles in along with the rain that it brings. The sound of the wildlife as you stroll through the woods, the sound of the water as you approach the beach or a waterfall and the howling winds. Story telling and side quests are submissive; granting all supporting character with a very well deserved screen time for character development in a world where everyone has a role to play. All while the game play and combat mechanics offers your more than just one way to play the game, by lending the player different skill trees to help you identify your taste of choosing in how to go about tackling your objectives.
    This Sucker Punch title is a true love letter delivered to Japan's Kamakura Period with absolutely no agendas to push, pull or divide the player/participant/viewer. In general, this title is well deserved title that should be found in your gaming collection. This is what a true Master Piece looks like. Ghost of Tsushima gets my vote for Game Of The Year.

    This is a great game that brings enough of its own identity to many of the, admittedly familiar, core aspects. A handful of few minor drawbacks mean that my score would more accurately be a 8.5.

    Graphics The good: Stunning artistic style combined with fantastic scenery and great lighting, including beautiful variety in the day night cycle. Possibly the best photo mode I've used.
    This is a great game that brings enough of its own identity to many of the, admittedly familiar, core aspects. A handful of few minor drawbacks mean that my score would more accurately be a 8.5.

    Graphics

    The good: Stunning artistic style combined with fantastic scenery and great lighting, including beautiful variety in the day night cycle. Possibly the best photo mode I've used.

    The bad: They are a handful of poor textures here and there, rocky surfaces in particular. The game works best when you're surrounded by grass, trees and foliage. My main gripe is when looking at things in the distance, usually from a vantage point. It's doesn't happen too often but sometimes land in the distance looks very flat and one tone, with almost no detail. It really sticks out. For example a yellow field of flowers, from up on high, looks like a bland brushstroke of paint.

    Sound

    The good: Excellent sound effects and a great, authentic sounding soundtrack.

    The bad: There's some lip-syncing that's off if you use the Japanese VO.

    Combat gameplay

    The good: I was worried that the combat would feel like W3 or the recent two AC games but I was very happy to find they've given combat it's own feel. Combat is quick and brutal. It's somewhat like a much easier version of Sekiro, with you and your enemies doing a lot of damage but with a 'guard' bar to break down first, unless you strike directly after a dodge, in which case you can usually get one hit in.

    Another bonus is that there are quite a few tools to use (Kunai, stun bombs etc) that allow you to express yourself in a greater variety of ways.

    Stealth works well but is like many other games in that respect, although it should be noted that they've given the player a lot more room for how they move around areas. In addition to the usual 'tall grass, walls and boxes' you've got many ways of climbing over and through buildings, along with crawling under them and popping out through trapdoors, squeezing through gaps and entering through small hatches.

    There's a large amount of skills to choose from, so there's several different playstyles to choose from.

    The bad: Even on hard, the game's just too easy. Apart from the initial learning curve and times I wandered into strong camps early on, there wasn't too much difficulty once I was used to the systems. As you progress and gain levels and equipment, it just gets even easier. It's a shame because I can see plenty of room to make it harder without needing to come close to Sekiro levels. Stealth in particular is overpowered, with enemies giving you plenty of leeway in terms of when they spot you.

    The camera doesn't always play nice either. It doesn't happen too often and it's mainly in smaller areas and when you're fighting more than 2 enemies that it can be a nuisance.

    Other gameplay: Though the map isn't huge like AC Odyssey or Witcher 3, there's plenty to do and, as is usual, lots of collectibles - though almost all of them enhance your character in some way so it's much more satisfying to find them. Activities include scenery traversal and a button sequence mini-game. Side-quests often have little stories that make them feel natural and most are quite entertaining and help flesh out the protagonist's personality and, indeed, that of the game itself.

    So yeah, I'm really enjoying this game and hope that perhaps they'll patch in another difficulty setting or some kind of mode that makes things more deadly.

    There are lots of quality of life elements too. You can collect things while racing past them, whether on foot or galloping by on your horse. No need to dismount and hold a button while a little time-bar fills up.

    Fast travel is plentiful, though I often just rode wherever I needed to go in order to soak in the atmosphere. I appreciated the waypoint system too, left the screen less cluttered and it looked beautiful.

You really can feel how much effort they put on this game to bring japanese historic culture to life with incredible amount of details, Sucker Punch did a lot of research on japanese ground to make things as genuine as possible. The gameplay is a mixture of exploration with intense combat that doesn´t feel cheap or to much easy (play this one on Hard mode, it gets even better). You will also have access to lots of customisation on your character to make your samurai as unique as it can be, playing as the honorable samurai or the sneaky ghost it will be up to you.

    The combat feels very satisfying each strike with your deadly katana feel realistic once you get the parries down it becomes greatly rewarding. Multiple stances opens up for interesting combos and more variety to strike down Mongols. Honestly I'd be here all day talking about the game there's just so much detail in the game which sucker punch did their best to hide from us so we get the chance to explore ourselves.

Along with that the quest design (minus a few flaws), combat, customization and fast travel system/load times make this game extremely addictive and allow you to play the game at your on pace depending on your style. On top of all that the island of Tsushima is absolutely amazing making exploration one of the best features of the game.

    My few issues with the game are with the physics. Most of the time unnoticeable but every now and then you’ll get some issues for example fighting on a cliff or rooftop it’s hard to yeet your enemies to their death due to an invisible like barrier. Other than that my only other problem with the game is a lot of the quests so far repeat the same formula, talk to a villager/ally, investigate the area for clues, follow footsteps or tracks, etc.

    These issues are easily forgiven though due to the game offering so much done right. I’m 25+ hours in and just scratching the surface of Act 2. Can’t wait for the rest of the journey and what comes from Sucker Punch/GoT in the future. Game Of The Year for me so far.

There are a few minor hiccups that I've noticed and one major issue that I've had at least. I'll start with positives firstly, the combat flows exceptionally well the changing of the stances works (most of the time) second, the story although I haven't gotten through the whole game what I have seen is very good and my last major compliment is that it's visually stunning I play on a PS4 pro with a HDR TV and it shows HDR really makes this game pop the color and lighting are rather breathtaking without HDR as well. Now on with my complaints with the game most are nit-picks to be fair. The horses running animation looks a bit wonky stealth is rather easy but suitable for the game there isn't a way to turn off tips which can be very annoying if you accidentally hit the wrong enemy with the wrong stance and the whole game freezes and calls you stupid I've gotten this even after hours of playing it'd be nice to add the ability to turn off tips in a patch. Now I have a few other gripes like during a certain rescue mission I was unable to climb a climbable surface and the fact that the standoff button doesn't work all the time but other than that there's only one huge complain that will round off my review. During combat if you mess up you're dead, fair enough however I on multiple occasions have clicked the switch stance button R2 and nothing happened it actually happened twice in a row killing me almost instantly if this were my fault it wouldn't be a big deal but this was 100% the game on a related note what makes this even worse is the parry button is a bit finicky especially on spearmen. However this isn't the worst thing in the world especially since the loading times are insanely fast but it did make my experience with the game slightly less valuable. Expand

Pros: GOT is a well made world, with a large map and very well-defined RPG system, that allows the player to define Jin (main character) through a series of well thought out upgrades, which include various stances and weapon upgrades. The game also features side missions, or “tales” which create a very interesting narrative away from the main story. The games fighting system is also something future developers should take note of. It’s challenging, without being souls like burdening over the course of the story. Parraying feels good, and although predictable at times, enemies can still be a challenge during combat. Cons: Not really a “con” but this game is not as beautiful graphically as some would have you believe. Certain elements are top, but the game falls short overall of the standard set by Last of Us Two and Red Dead Redemption. The game compares more accurately to a Samurai-based Days Gone. Above average, but not mind blowing. Enemy AI is largely terrible, and stealth although set up to be fun misses the mark due to unaware AI, who can de easily disposed of while sneaking around. There are still a large amount of fetch quests, including fetching individuals. The combat, while enjoyable, is incredibly repetitive. Expand

    I do not usually give 10/10's. Even some of the most amazing recent games like Marvel's Spider-Man, God of War, etc. have all been 8 or 9 out of 10's to me. This game, however, is a 10 out of 10. It's one of the few games in recent history that feels whole and complete, instead of rushed and missing large swathes of cut content.

    I do not usually give 10/10's. Even some of the most amazing recent games like Marvel's Spider-Man, God of War, etc. have all been 8 or 9 out of 10's to me. This game, however, is a 10 out of 10. It's one of the few games in recent history that feels whole and complete, instead of rushed and missing large swathes of cut content.

    Let's start with the story. The story is by far the best part of Ghosts of Tsushima and not just the main story. The main story has a beginning, middle, and end that keep you hooked the whole way through. The story of the Samurai who falls...or...perhaps grows into something new? It's hard to give too much information without spoiling it, but suffice it to say the game is chock full of amazingly well written moments, amazing dialogue (both in english and japanese, I can vouch for each one and they are both amazingly voiced), and plenty of emotional moments that will twist your gut with the pain of loss.

    Even the side quests are amazingly written. I'm going to spoil a couple, but I'll be sure to save the best side quests. For instance, you stumble across a wounded bandit on death's door and prepare to put him out of his misery. Only once you've approached, however, do you find out that he was forced to be a bandit and that all of the fallen bandits around him were his doing. He left them to return home and they slaughtered his family. He asks for your help in killing the rest of them at their nearby camp. Jin agrees and the two of them storm the camp cutting down every last one of them. As the last one falls, the man collapses and asks Jin to bury him somewhere away from the filth of the bandit corpses. Jin agrees and the man thanks him once more before passing on to be with his family on the other side. This is just a simple side story.

    Another example of a great side story is stumbling across a tavern being attacked by "bandits" (I won't spoil this). This happens completely randomly and you find yourself running up to the tavern and slaying the bandits, but not before most of the people have been wounded or killed. You find the owner mortally wounded and she asks something of you just before she dies. This side quest is her final wish given with her last breaths.

    Now let's finally talk about something besides the story, the gameplay. The sword play here is amazing. You have four stances (three of which you unlock throughout the game by killing Mongul leaders or observing them. You can actually get two points towards progression if you observe them first and then kill them, though you must find them without alerting the rest of the camp to observe) each of which is better against a certain type of enemy. Alongside that you have a few Iai skills, an amazing parry system, a fluid combo system and many special attacks you can unlock through the skill progression or through the Mythical quests that teach you legendary sword skills.

    The stealth is also quite well done with a large number of tactical options to clear an entire enemy camp before they even realize you're there, or to capitalize on their awareness of your presence by striking fear into them particularly dirty and terrifying tricks.

    Here's where I want to set expectations for someone, because my expectations nearly ruined the game for me. This is not a game where you can choose to roleplay either an honorable samurai 100% of the time or the underhanded ghost 100% of the time. You will be forced to assume both roles throughout quests. This is a story about a samurai who falls from grace and learns that honor is not worth lives when you can use dishonorable tactics to save your people. As such I roleplayed what I called the "canon" Jin by the end. I tried to force the game to let me be honorable 100% of the time but there are too many forced stealth sections due to hostages or other things. Then I slowly started to rely more and more on that stealth or those dirty tricks even during combat and found that it really opened up the game for me to mesh the two playstyles together instead of treating them as a binary 1 or 0. This is not inFAMOUS. This is not a Karma system where you must commit to one. Instead, enjoy your fluid ability to swap freely.

    Last but not least is the music, visuals, and sound design which are all amazing. The Kurosawa filter makes the game truly feel like an old japanese samurai movie and adds a ton of character, but I would save it for your second playthrough. The visuals of this game are too gorgeous to miss out on by muting them with monochrome. The brightly colored vistas, fighting under a red leafed tree, or in a field of purple flowers, etc. is just too beautiful to be ruined on your first playthrough. Plus the Kurosawa filter mutes and muffles audio, which is another place where this game excels. The music and sound design are top tier.

    Alright, I'm just about at my character limit so thank you for reading this far. This is definitely my GOTY and I hope you enjoy it too.

    Ghost of Tsushima improves upon the open world formula of recent games like Assassin´s Creed: Odyssey and the like. It stands out with it´s beautiful visuals and great combat. Highly recommend!

    An extraordinarily gorgeous world that was a joy to explore. From the trees blowing in the wind to the leaves kicking up behind you as ride along some of the best, if not the best, looking sunsets. Even if the details on the individual models themselves aren't necessarily always incredible, but when it all comes together it creates something so good that the visuals alone make this game worth playing.

    While I did enjoy exploring all of the side activities like finding fox dens or hot springs to further Jin's strength throughout the game after 10-20 I started to lose interest in them, luckily though the combat itself redeem all of that. It feels responsive, requires timing and feels very rewarding when playing on hard mode. the 1 on 1 duels feel especially good and get closer to the feeling of Sekiro (even though it´s not as challenging for the most part), while the fights you´ll be having most of the time are closer to what you´d experience in AC, but a lot tighter and polished.

    While stories are not the most important part of a game for me personally, I do appreciate it when I play a game that has that. Ghost of Tsushima doesn't quite get there for me though. While it´s certainly not bad, it´s not the best either. While it´s enjoyable in the moment, the story doesn't really create any memorable moments or stories for me.

    The game managed to keep itself at 30 fps for most of my playthrough even though there were some noticeable drop during larger setpieces or cutscenes. Loading screens are impressively fast and you will barely get to the loading screen before you are back in the game again, unless you are traveling across the map between the different prefectures.

    Being the first game I've played from Sucker Punch I´m really impressed and I´m probably going to take a look at playing their earlier games. Can´t wait to see what they´ll create on the next generation!

    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.
