    Just a fun game to get lost in. The story is good but not great. The combat is incredibly fun and there’s so many side missions but they’re all fun to do!

    Ghost of Tsushima is, in a word, ‘fun’. The gameplay loop of riding your horse through beautifully breathtaking environments and taking down group after group of enemy never gets boring, through the 40+ hours of content (including side missions). The combat in this game cannot be oversold. It is the best combat I have played in a game ever, which is not something I say lightly. Using Jin’sGhost of Tsushima is, in a word, ‘fun’. The gameplay loop of riding your horse through beautifully breathtaking environments and taking down group after group of enemy never gets boring, through the 40+ hours of content (including side missions). The combat in this game cannot be oversold. It is the best combat I have played in a game ever, which is not something I say lightly. Using Jin’s katana is extremely satisfying and the cosmetic upgrades truly makes it feel like it’s yours. The combat progression, throughout the game, is paced masterfully, which never allows the combat to get repetitive and constantly gives you new ways to defeat your foes.

    However, where the game falls short in my opinion is it’s characters and robot-like NPCs. The characters in this game (aside from Jin and a select few) are boring and all the same. They all address Jin in the same way for example, have poor lip syncing animations and always ask for help regarding the same things, such as ‘save my daughter’ or ‘there are enemies at this location’ etc etc. Doing missions for these repetitive drones gets dull quick, but is however an excuse to kill more bad guys with the fantastic combat, so there is a silver lining. In terms of narrative and writing the game is good enough. The story keeps you motivated enough to keep going but don’t expect a gripping story similar to the likes of a naughty dog narrative (pre-Last of us 2). The writing is also just that ‘good enough’, with characters who feel somewhat real but lack any significant arcs or interesting back story. Overall, Ghost of Tsushima is an amazing game, with its full price, and worth of a play through as soon as you can manage. The combat is nothing short of satisfying, fun and engaging, with a very playable story and decent characters. The game deserves the praise it’s been getting, but of course that is just my opinion.

On the day it was released I accidentally played for over 24 hours straight it is so easy to just get pulled in and lost from just exploring the world around you to liberating your fellow countrymen the real world just seemed to melt away. Now upgrading equipment takes a lot of resources so that means farming resources but unlike that of Assassin's Creed which made grinding very dull this game makes enjoyable it does not feel like a grind since there are so many places to visit and see and alot of bases to clear there is also a certain weapon charm that practically doubles most resources collected which helps alot. In all of my total time spent playing the game which as of right now is about 30+ hours I haven't even made it to act 2 yet but I haven't been doing all main missions I don't fast travel or focus on specific things I just have fun playing the game. I haven't been pulled into a game like this in years I don't get bored I look forward to getting on and playing it has so much to offer and the difficulty is brilliant and balanced. I highly recommend this game to everyone and I stress do not rush through it take your time with the game and just take in the development of your characters emotional choices and how his choices really conflict him explore the world around you and have fun.

The grass and leaves and wind give a movement and life to every moment which has not been seen before on playstation. The acting and facial animations are done well and the antagonists are interesting.
    The music is masterfully done, with some iconic pieces along with some really pleasant background music.
    The open world gameplay, a much loved genre, has been improved on in almost everyway. A cinematic and compelling main story, is supplemented with interesting and diverse side missions. On top of that, the open world staple 'copy and paste' missions, have nice gimics e.g. the fox, and are varied enough for them to soften any 'grind' these missions usually have.
    The combat is challenging and detailed, mixing assassins creed style stealth, with God of War level fights. Any fan of Tenchu will undoubtedly want to play this, and anybody who wants to feel like a strong hero can't go wrong with this game (even while retaining the challenging gameplay).
    This is a wonderful game, which has set the bar higher for open world games. Not only is it great, but the fact his is the new gold standard means I cannot help but give this game a 10/10. I look forward to playing Ghosts of Tsushima on the PS5, and also the sequels, which I hope will be made for decades to come.

    El juego muestra una invasión Mongola sobre una isla japonesa que sufre y lucha como puede, mientras que el personaje principal evoluciona desde los primeros pasos, sufriendo realmente y sintiendo como su propio modo de vida se rompe entre el Samurai y su educación familiar y la persona del Fantasma que es la antítesis del propio codigo de Bushido.

    Gráficamente impresionante y en un principio muy anganchante, desafortunadamente después de varias horas se vuelve monótono y cansado, lo que te mantiene jugandolo después de 15 hrs es su historia, pero falla en muchos aspectos como por ejemplo la dificultad ya que no ofrece un mayor reto y las físicas las cuales debieron ser mejores ya que prácticamente no podrás derribar ni un bambú.

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. Lots of worthwhile loot and collectibles to find. Love the lore that you can discover to learn more about the world.

    Game is amazing, played for hours right out of the box. I love the combat, simple yet challenging, the visuals are amazing, great omage to old samurai films, which I love. So far playing with Japanese voice actors, mainly because of Kazuya Nakai the voice of roronoa zoro from One Piece, and so far he's amazing. Love it.

    Great game that uses minimal HUD and amazingly designed environments to keep you immersed. While the game lacks innovation from open world tropes it does take the best parts of past games and uses them to create a unique experience worth playing

    Combat is really good, can take a few hours for the parrying and dodge to really click, but once it does you start to feel like a real badass. I also love the progression, theres lots of side quests and various tasks that really flow with the main story and dont seem like too much of a chore, especially as the rewards can be very satisfying, depending on the side quest. would have givenCombat is really good, can take a few hours for the parrying and dodge to really click, but once it does you start to feel like a real badass.

    normally i wouldnt complete an area 100% in an open world game but on this i have and loved every second of it the combat is awesome and challenging but not to the point where it makes you wanna stop playing, this is largely to the way they lead to events in the world by using visual cues like smoke, the guiding bird and wind or the colour of trees there is basiclly no hud and makes the game so much more immersive.
    the story is on the grim side due to it being based on war but it is done so well and the side misson are great some are a bit basic but most are interesting due to things like legends of warriors/areas or the effects of the war on people lifes.

    A true visually appealing game with great gameplay. The combat has much high risk high reward mechanics you can unlock and punishes you if you don't pay attention to your surroundings. It's a masterpiece and GOTY candidate for me. Lot of love and respect for japanese culture went into 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.

    Get this game! I can’t believe how great of a job Sucker punch did with Ghost of Tsushima. I would rather play this game over and over than play another Assassin’s Creed. This game actually makes you feel every sword swing, but it also gives you the opportunity to play like an assassin if that’s your style. There are some bugs that I imagine will be patched soon.

It reminds me of Jedi Fallen Order in that it’s a great game with some bugs at launch. I don’t think the bugs will bother most people. It’s one of the few games worth the $60. If the character had been a female, the game would have gotten a 9 out of 10 from the critics. Had it been a lesbian character then you’re probably looking at a 10/10 game from the critics. All the people want is a good game with none of the politics. Thanks, Sucker Punch. Expand

    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.
