The graphics are beautiful with scenery that pop because of the colours and they really nailed the island of Tsushima and its culture. The main and side characters have good and fulfilling arcs. It was intriguing to see the main character change his values and the internal conflict he has with this change to save his home.
    The open world of the island of Tsushima has many things to do with plentiful side quests and activities that are beneficial for your playthrough. One of my favourite parts are the samurai duels that you will encounter throughout the story, they feel badass and can be challenging on the harder difficulty. I also enjoyed the legendary tales which would reward you with badass weapons or abilities. Additionally, the tales of the important side characters were great to playthrough as well, as it added more emotional depth to the characters.
    The only complaint I had with the game is that the enemy AI are dumb, especially in stealth. The detection meter is unrealistically slow and it sometimes broke the immersion for me. Sometimes I felt the game is best enjoyed attacking the enemies head-on rather than using the stealth approach and the missions that required to do stealth can feel really slow.
    Despite that, GOT is another PS4 exclusive that is a must have and has game of the year potential. Definitely going in my top 5 for open-world games.    … Expand

    One of the best games of the open world, especially from the diversity of nature and side missions and their stories in addition to a powerful fighting system and the wonderful photo mode, had it not been for some technical errors in the movement of the face and language and the succession of night and day are not a big thing، would have been one of the best exclusives

    Think of this game like a lovechild of the classic Tenchu and Assassins Creed, with a touch of The Witcher 3, trust me, while you're playing, you'll get the sense of nostalgic feeling from playing those games.

    I hope this game can be a good contender for 2020's Game of The Year, it really deserves to be one of it.

    Thank you Sucker Punch, you'll go down in the history of gaming with this game.

    Fantastic game so far. It has beautiful graphics and environments, fun game play, and a decent story. The combat flows very well and is especially fun. The perfect swan song for the PS4. It's worth your money and is actually enjoyable to play. Unlike TLOU2, whose only similarity to GoT is the stunning graphics.

    The best samurai-themed game, cool combat and great storyline. There are problems like stupid bots in stealth and the lack of animation for steps on the stairs. But all these problems are closed by the spectacular combat that the game presents, in this game you cannot live even five minutes without a fight.

    Very good game for the most part. The graphics and landscapes are beautiful, combat is diverse and well developed; smooth, satisfying and enjoyable. Side activities and interesting and unique. It taught me a good deal about a historical time period I knew very little about and portrayed the strengths and weaknesses of the Samurai’s moral code effectively.

    The story is good too, albeit quite predictable and bland at some points although it is serviceable. Nevertheless, I thought it did well at presenting the story of a warrior, one of the last of his kind, attempting to unite a resistance against genocidal invaders. Not perfect by any means, but quite good.

    Smaller issues are related to bugs and smoothness. Sometimes the frame rate may drop and some movement controls are stiff such as climbing and traversal. Dropping down from ledges is a nightmare and the horse only has two movement options of a fast walk and a fast gallop. This could easily be fixed in a bug patch or an update. Pretty good job, and I think it could be a strong contender for game of the year. The six years of development paid off very well.    … Expand

The combat is excellent and nuanced with incredible animation and fantastic audio. The characters you meet are for the most part interesting in subtle ways, and the stories you live through will often not go the way you expect, in a good way.
    Jin makes a compelling protagonist with his commitment to honor and justice, although on his journey he might challenge those values in some interesting ways.
    From an audio/visual angle the game is simply stunning, every hilltop, grasslands and plains of white flowers are just jaw dropping. The audio matches the visuals with an incredible attention to detail with the ambient audio in particular. The sounds of a katana slicing though flesh and bone are likely to never get old.

The voice acting (Japanese with English subtitles) is flawless, gives it an authentic feel - plus, in my opinion, it's a beautiful sounding language. Sucker Punch really outdid themselves on this game. Can't wait to see what they have for the future.

    Cons (I only have two minor issues):
    My first one is I wish the game was more graphic. You're using swords so I was expecting more than just an forearm to come off when you slice through an enemy; I would have expected all limbs and even heads to come off.
    Second one being the controls. Having to switch stances in the middle of fights, switching from half-bow to long bow, to the items you throw with your hand, etc. is a bit of a nuisance when in the middle of a fight, it's a learning curve.    … Expand

    Wow! A game that hits all the right boxes with a few minor flaws but even those cannot dampen the overall experience of the game. This game is addictive and you will find it hard to put down your controller. So don't be like me, take regular breaks to rest your eyes, brain, and hands or else you'll easily end up playing the whole day sleep be damned!

This game is addictive and you will find it hard to put down your controller. So don't be like me, take regular breaks to rest your eyes, brain, and hands or else you'll easily end up playing the whole day sleep be damned!

    GRAPHICS: The game has stunning visuals. I thought it would be hard to beat TLOU2 in the visual department, but here we are only weeks later. The environment, the grass, trees, water, all polished to please your eyes and enhance your experience traversing the island.

    SOUND: If you've played or watched samurai movies and games based on Japanese history, then Ghost of Tsushima knocks it out of the park. The wind sound as it blows through the environment, makes you feel like you are actually there. If there was a VR option for this game, that would've been awesome. The sword and bow sounds in combat, blood spurts, and other environment elements are common to what you hear in past great historical Japanese samurai themed games and movies.

    GAMEPLAY: This is where Tsushima hits a home run for the most part. You feel connected to the character. You grow and customize him as you progress through the story and complete missions (tales) as you explore the island. Learn new abilities, and stances to help in combat to make you the most badass samurai you can imagine in a movie or anime. Upgrade armor, equipment, and tools to get the job done of slashing, and piercing those evil Mongol hordes. A combination of elements from the old Tenchu games, Uncharted's style of climbing up and getting around the map, and the open world feel of games like GTA. All comes together quite nicely.

    STORYLINE: Coming off the huge disappointment of TLOU2's storyline, this game does the revenge theme correctly but with a very Japanese samurai like process. Defend your clans honor, avenge fallen comrades, choose whether to fight the honorable samurai way head on and face to face with enemies or sneak around like a ninja and assassinate your foes silently. Your character starts off kind of naive, but as the story progresses you see him mature and harden to the harsh reality of fighting a war of swords and bows against the most dishonorable fighters of the time, the Mongols. You are given a clear goal to achieve, and you are satisfied in the end to achieve it. Something that TLOU2's writers could've learned from.

    CONS OF THE GAME: My biggest complaint for the game is the lip syncing when using the Japanese dub. The lips do not match what is spoken. It could be that they synced it to the English dub but not the Japanese dub. It gets annoying if you focus on the face during cutscenes, but those who read the subtitles will probably not notice it as much. People who can understand Nihongo and play without subtitles will notice. There are also some AI glitches like enemies occasionally get stuck in pieces of the environment, but this is rare and hardly noticeable.

    SUMMARY: Ghost of Tsushima is the perfect palate cleanser to get the awful aftertaste of disappointment from playing TLOU2 which was released previous to this game. It has all the elements of TLOU but without the flawed storyline. This game's gameplay and visuals will keep you hooked playing for hours. Replay value is there for those who want to explore every inch of the island and get every item to be found. Those who saved their money and skipped TLOU2 and got this game spent their money wisely. This game is worth the money and time to play. This is the best game of 2020 so far. Looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 to see how that does. Ghost of Tsushima has set the bar high for what a great game should be in this year.    … Expand

    Visually, this title shines. Hardly you will find another title that delivers so much colorful and live environment like this game. The world seems and feels alive, and this is quite hard to accomplish. The wind is a used as a gameplay feature, but even if it's not subtle, still helps (or you can ignore it). However, interactions with NPC have something to be desired... Faces and expressions are kinda poor, and sometimes the interactions feel strange.

    All in all, even if i still have to finish this title, i can recommend it. Even if you're not really a fan of the Assasin Creed gamestyle (This game have some elements from it, and similar games), you might enjoy it.

These are one of the many strengths of Gohst of Tsushima, in addition to the open world that is very detailed, especially the grass of the game. The negative points are that some bugs and textures on the floor are not very beautiful. But overall Gohst of Tsushima is an excellent game.

    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.    … Expand

    The combat is solid, it's fun and tight, all be it a little repetitive but it's broken up by stealth sections, stand offs, duels and all out battles so you never feel burned out before the next battle begins.

    The only issues I've had so far are very minor, random tutorials in the late game and bad lip syncing for the Japanese dub, nothing major but sometimes breaks the immersion. Lastly it would be the fact that it's PlayStation exclusive. This wouldn't be a problem for me as I've used PlayStation for over ten years, however a recent dispute with Sony over their terms of service cost me that account and all my previous games.

From the first few cinematics of the game you can immediately see the hard work put into bringing Tsushima to life from the tall grass, the flames from the aftermath of a battle, the blood of fallen warriors, and the simple details like sweat dripping down a man's face or the expressions on a character's face.

    Overall the game has a very real Assassin's Creed/Red Dead Redemption type feel, but in a good way as it makes you familiar with the gameplay which is extremely easy to pick up in the first two minutes of the game. The controls are easy and very quick to understand which I absolutely loved especially when it comes to the combat and sword fighting.
    Speaking of that, the combat mechanics in the game are absolutely amazing and the different sword fighting styles that bring the game to life are absolutely next-level. My favorite part is how you simply make the game your own whether you choose to go stealth, or face the enemy head-on in an absolute brawl. The little details as well, where after a fight you can use the touchpad to allow Jin to wipe the blood off the sword? AWESOME!
    This game's story was also a big step up from other titles as well as you get sucked into Jin's story of proving himself a honorable samurai and his duty to save his uncle. As a son who recently lost his father- I felt every moment of Jin's story and the challenges he faced. Start to finish the story was great and the ability to pause at any moment to go explore and enjoy the open world was by far one of the best features as well. You didn't feel like it was very linear and you were told you only had ths approach and "this" direction to go, unlike other titles *cough cough*.
    I will say this game may be my current favorite for game of the year.

    Pros:
    -Visuals and every detail down to the environment
    -Combat controls and fight mechanics
    -Fluid and well-written story from top to bottom and side missions as well'
    -Customization and character development in skills and abilities to suit your style
    -Well driven open world with plenty to do and explore, FOXES ARE COOL!
    -Executions and stealth kills were impressive.

    Cons:
    -Clunky at times while riding on the horse, but nothing too overboard that ruins the feel for the game.
    -Certain cutscenes where the dialogue and character movement appear to be off.
    -Absence of the HUD made travel a challenge, but the wind mechanic was pretty tolerable.

    Overall I scored this a 9 out of 10 on replay-ability, the visuals and gameplay, the sound is amazing, and the story arc as well as features of this game are fantastic. This game is a 100% must-buy.

    Pra mim um dos melhores jogos da geração do PS4. Simplesmente inclível, é inacreditável o que a Sucker Punch conseguiu fazer nesse game em termos técnicos, conseguiram criar um mundo aberto que passa a sensação de estar em um mundo real, a cada momento o jogo te entrega algo novo para fazer, tudo isso em um mundo de gráficos lindos, verdadeiras pinturas sendo geradas a cada ambiente.Pra mim um dos melhores jogos da geração do PS4. Simplesmente inclível, é inacreditável o que a Sucker Punch conseguiu fazer nesse game em termos técnicos, conseguiram criar um mundo aberto que passa a sensação de estar em um mundo real, a cada momento o jogo te entrega algo novo para fazer, tudo isso em um mundo de gráficos lindos, verdadeiras pinturas sendo geradas a cada ambiente. Falando em ambiente, o jogo procurou cuidar de cada detalhe, animais, vegetação, vento, sistemas de partículas, volto a dizer, é inacreditável o que fizeram nesse jogo.

    O sistema de combate é complexo, porém não é difícil de se acostumar, acontece que os inimigos realmente são fortes e você sente uma progressão de dificuldade conforme vai progredindo no jogo, o que te obriga a fazer missões secundárias, procurar templos, tudo isso para poder aprimorar o equipamento e aprender novos golpes, posturas e técnicas para então poder lutar com os inimigos de igual para igual.

    Por ser um jogo de mundo aberto, o mapa é gigantesco e a distância que o jogo marca a ser percorrida realmente parece que é a mesma que você andaria no mundo real, 1km é 1km mesmo. os locais variam bastante, campos de flores lindos dão lugares a florestas densas com grande variedade de vegetação e animais, sapos, caranguejos, cachorros, veados, javalis, pássaros, raposas, peixes, são muitos detalhes que nem precisariam estar lá, mas os desenvolvedores colocaram para mostrar o capricho que tiveram com o jogo.

    Dos pontos negativos, alguns bugs acontecem, como inimigos trancarem em obstáculos e as vezes a camera se posiciona de modo que não favorece o combate (acredito que vão arrumar isso em atualizações futuras) Mas resumindo tudo, o jogo é lindo e trás horas e mais horas de gameplay intensa, muita imersão nos ambientes e combates realmente desafiadores.

    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.
