    Best openworld experience since horizon zero dawn! Exploring The island of tsushima is a joy and you're bound to lose track of time and tell yourself ill just Explore 1 more location before I put down The controll and suddenly two hours has past. A must play game if you enjoy open world games

    Visuals have to be the best that I’ve personally seen on the ps4. Combat, and combat progression is top notch. Story is captivating, and character development is great.

    The best samurai game I've played. Not to mention that this game is more "assassin's creed" than any of the recent assassin's creed games lol. The world, the art style is simply breathtaking. The combat is so realistic and bloody. And the stealth is equally satisfying. In IGN's words - "Really makes you feel like a samurai in feudal japan"

    I haven’t quite finished the main quest line yet but I’m about 2/3rds of the way through and I thought I would write this review while waiting for my PS4 controller to charge. I have been playing this game almost non-stop since its release.

    If there’s one word that could sum up this game it’s fun. It’s much more than that, but I haven’t had this much fun with a game for a long time.

    If there’s one word that could sum up this game it’s fun. It’s much more than that, but I haven’t had this much fun with a game for a long time. Ostensibly this appears to be an Assassins Creed with a Samurai theme with familiar open world tropes, but when its executed this well it is so much better than that. The graphics are absolutely gorgeous – I’ve used the photo mode in this game more than all other games I’ve played put together. The art design and the vivid colours are at times breathtaking.

    The map isn’t peppered with icons everywhere that usually signify cookie cutter side missions that are needed to level up, instead they are kept to a minimum as exploration is greatly encouraged instead of merely going from point A-B. Side missions are as much fun and quality as the main quest and they are varied and interesting - much time and effort has been put into both. There are no clumsy intrusive lines showing you where to go instead you follow the wind, foxes or certain birds which show you the way to missions, or places of interest. A simple but brilliantly effective idea of maintaining immersion. Every point of interest has a purpose, whether it’s to increase health or increase charms.

    But it’s the combat where this game really excels. It can be as simple or as complex as you wish. With four different sword techniques that you can change mid combat at will, and with multiple move sets per technique, it makes for some impressive and visceral combat. Bandit camps are no longer the tedious level up method deployed in AC games instead, because of the glorious combat, they become something to look forward to.

    The game does have a few minor quibbles; there are probably more bugs than there should be – though I’ve not encountered any game breaking ones, and the camera needs a lock on, too many times it got caught up behind a bush or obstacle meaning you can’t see, sometimes meaning you lose the fight.

    But overall this game is absolutely superb and the more I play the better it gets as it reveals more of itself. Without question, so far this is my game of the year...by some distance.    … Expand

    Absolutley brilliant. 15 plus hours in and i am really enjoying the story and gameplay. The lighting in this game resembles a piece of art it really does stand out. Who does not want to ride through scenic fields and picturesque landscapes. Of course it is not a hundred percent but nothing really should be as we with any sense know that that is the mythical score.

I have had so much fun with this games combat over the course of my journey. Wether I am taking down enemies using standoff,stealth or just regular combat it has not once become old or stale. The atmosphere and way the world moves around you is second to none. Sunsets are a joy to behold and each location feels like it was made with love and attention. There is no copy and past here. Each environment feels and is it's own place. Load times are none existant and some of the fastest I have ever experienced. You can tell the developers put a lot of love into this title and enjoyed making it. I will definitely be playing this game again and this time I will use the black and white filter the game offers. If you love Japanese lore this game is a love letter to you and there's enough here for casuals as well.… Expand

The world may not be as “alive” as RDR2 but being in this world I’m so immersed. My take on the story:
    The story i found very cool! It’s a very cut and dry (no pun intended) samurai story, but boy does is this story told well. The side quest literally are so well told that they are mixed into the main story. Without spoiling it, the story is very cool and fun to get through.

    My take on the combat:
    The combat I find to be very dynamic which I think is a must. Pretty much every single fight is a cinematic masterpiece there’s always something in a fight that will make you feel “awesome” afterwards. There’s duels in this game that send chills down your spine when you see jin (the main character) push his sword out of his sheath right before the fight begins! Then upgrade system is super fun! 4 different stances, 20 plus moves you can unlock, a bunch of special stealth and combat gadgets to unlock! All in all I’m gonna give it a 9/10 I don’t remember a game that made me feel so epic when playing it... I think the last game I felt that way was sekiro! This game is fun, immersive, dynamic, and beautiful! Get it. Play it. Love it.    … Expand

You will have to farm for materials like supplies, which getting anywhere from 1 to 24ish, when you need hundreds, this process can get old.

As you progress through the main story, the AI becomes much smarter and stronger which forces you to upgrade you skills, armor and weapon. The combat in this game is unique. It’s neither hard nor easy, but you have to master the techniques to face every type of enemy. The side missions aren’t boring at all because they extend from the main story. I only raged during the combat because I’m not really good at it, but turning the difficulty down will did it for me.

The final boss fight against the Khan was outstanding, and the final boss fight with lord Shimura was also outstanding. It was a beautiful game and story, hope they make a sequel.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game I came into low expectations in the beginning thinking this was just another jade dynasty game , generic Japanese culture game. But playing it almost 10 to 15 hours into the game ( currently in the mission tale of ryuizo ). I would say this game is stunning and amazing to.look at. There are glitches in thr game don't get me wrong. But its not game breaking. There was a part sensei ishikawa got stuck in one of the steps of his dojo and I just started laughing. I loved it. But the game play and the open world is rich and a lot of stuff to do in it. From mongols stronghold to side mythic tales ( my favorite so far is heavenly strike) to side mission from characters you recruited in the main missions of the game. Give you a sense of great character development and a sense of immersion in each unique characters. To lady masako to ryuizo. Sorry if I'm butchering these names. I cant wait to finish this game and see the ending . I loved how you can upgrade your armour from the supplies you get throughout the game and the platforming is heavenly. Despite glitches when you fight a bear for the first time ( makes you think the bear is a different object and throws you around like a rag doll) its intense and rewarding when you win a fight against the mongols invading island of Tsushima. This game is what makes a game godlike and fun. Of course is not the greatest game but it comes close to red dead redemption and God of war remake for the ps4.

I loved this games hud design where everything just seems to be done in a way to serve immersion. Even the way you are guided by the wind to seek quest and places added to the immersion. The games protagonist is compelling and a lot of time is spent fleshing out its host of interesting side characters very well thought out quest.
    Sound is immaculate and though I came across a few bugs none were so glaring that they ruined the gaming experience and I believe they will be patched quickly.

    Siendo la obra de arte que es tiene algunos pequeños bugs/fallos que deberían solucionar con un parche. Esta masterpiece no merece tener estos bugs. Aunque lo compensa la excelencia y la belleza de todo lo demás.

    I absolutely love this game, the graphics on the pro are awesome, the story is great, combat absorbing and I think the size of the world and the amount you can do is amazing. I know it's my favourite game this year and look forward to spending hundreds of hours on it, I'm going to really drag this game out.

    Overall score:

    Plot: 9 out of 10
    ALL CHARACTERS are well spelled out and you understand their motivation.

    Graphics: I'm not a professional in this business, but I would say 7 out of 10. Everything is very beautiful, but sometimes you notice places where it could be done better.

    Gameplay: 8 out of 10. When you get used to the controls, all types of combat stances, strikes, blocks, you can conquer even the maximum difficulty.

    In general - This game is very addicting with its plot and you can easily get stuck in it for many hours. The graphics and combat are also up to par. Would I recommend buying it? If you love plots about Japanese history, then certainly!!    … Expand

I knew it existed and that was it. But I started the game and the intro captivated me. Fire rained down from the skies as brave samurai charged their most dangerous enemy yet and they killed them without mercy. Then I actually played it. The combat is refreshingly unique. It has some Assassin's Creed influences, but the stances you can choose from to counter specific enemy types, the combos, the unique moves, it's amazing. The customization of armor appearances, weapon appearances, and even your horse's saddle is excellent and each pattern is uniquely Japanese rather than being a generic Japanese pattern that so many other games have fallen into using. Each color palate for the armor and weapon choices was made with loving detail.

    It's not perfectly historically accurate, but it uses a historical setting to write a fictitious story that is both realistic and enthralling. The characters feel unique. Jin feels a bit single-minded in the first act, but this is well-balanced by various characters such as a master archer and a woman who had her family massacred and a thief who helps him from the start. They teach him various lessons and he grows as a character as they grow. The dialogue is witty and some characters are truly gems.    … Expand

I never used fast travel in this game for the reason that riding a horse in this world is so immersive, that i want to feel the cold breeze, the smell of flowers as you go quest by quest.

    The sword fight is so damn good. The mechanic to switch stances between enemy types is something new - atleast to me.

    The stealth, i must be honest, the AI is so DUMB even on highest difficulty that it drags away the xperience of becoming a ghost. I expect it atleast in the level of tlou2.

    The traversal is not that fluid, most of the time your movement will blocked by small things that you thought should already be passable - you know when you push the L STICK hard

    Main Story is decent, i wish they added more mythic tales though. Despite all the bugs and frustrations i got in this game, this game gives an awesome samurai experience. Another flawed masterpiece.

    I hope TLOU2 will win GOTY, but if, not Ghost really deserves the award as well.

    Story/story’s are great and meaningful

    Have only played as a hidden Ghost rather than a fully honourable Samurai, and its great fun figuring out the best ways to get into a camp and confuse the enemy.

I am VERY glad I did in the end because of the breathtaking scenery, magnificent gameplay, and engaging story.

    The scenery is BEAUTIFUL in this game. The leaves falling to the ground around you as you duel against samurai had me loving every second of the environment. You can tell Sucker Punch made this game as an ode to old Samurai movies. The inspiration you can feel from the different elements from the snow covered mountains to the yellow tinted leaves. The only problem I had with it was a few glitches from time to time and phasing through certain areas.

    The gameplay is so much fun! The biggest draw for me in the beginning of the game was the gameplay. The different elements create a variety of ways you can engage in combat-- sneaking, duels, and my personal favorite was the Ghost Stance mechanic. This new feature made me want to stay away from getting injured as much as possible. The open world aspect is probably the best I have seen-- I enjoyed just running around and doing sidequests. At no point did they feel like sidequests to me because of how they managed to create the quests. There were only a few points where I was starting to get bored with it, but then I would just go back and do the main quest for a bit only to return to side quests a while later. The biggest problem with the gameplay was the camera. In tight corners the camera can def get wonky.

    The story was beautifully written and was a huge draw for me. The story reminds me so much of old samurai flicks. Yuna and Lord Shimura were fantastic foil characters in contrast to Jin. My favorite parts revolve around the ideas of which way Jin will progress-- become more barbaric in the way he kills or keep his Samurai honor. All the characters are really fleshed out (as long as you do their side quests). I would say Ishikawa-sensei was the weakest when it came to the personal story-- Norio and Masako being the strongest.

    Overall the story is fantastic, the characters are engaging, the gameplay is fun, and the graphics are beautiful.

There are some things that could have been better, but only small details that don’t take away any pleasure or immersion you get from the game. Knowing that Suckerpunch isn’t a developer like for example Ubisoft, with tons of money to invest into their game (without actually doing it lol) I can forgive them for the few glitches or other minor flaws the game has. This story and gameplay just reminds me so much of what games used to be like. FUN. Without an agenda, without doing what “should be done”
    Sure this gameplay has become “old” to some critics. But I love it.
    For example how they handled the jump system in this game. It actually feels dangerous because you have to aim carefully where you want to go. Instead of pressing one button that takes you anywhere without dying. This makes it less cinematic, than AC’s freerunning system for example. But are looks really everything?
    It reminds me so much of infamous, but with falling damage. I do wish it actually had more of the infamous freerunning to it. But with falling damage of course. That just makes it feel more dangerous and you don’t press one button all the time like you don’t have a brain. I have played tons of games like this (Assassin’s creed) that were boring af. Same old side quests, same old “climb tower-leap of faith” BS
    Somehow Ghost of Tsushima is intriguing, and it had everything to do with the story and how they filled the map with sidequests that are fun and innovative. Suckerpunch has never disappointed me with the Sly Cooper or Infamous franchises. Even though they added diversity to their cast, with both female and non-white characters. (Infamous)
    It never felt forced (like in TLOU2) I hope they continue to create games like this that look and play gorgeous! Would love to see Suckerpunch up there with the big companies. Insomniac did it so why not?    … Expand

    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.
