    I've been waiting for a game like this for 20 years. Ghost of tsushima is hell of a game.
    Gameplay : the gameplay is really fast and challenging. You have lots of different skill to choose from.
    Story : so far I liked side quests more than story missions, some of side quests are really awesome specially that ghost mission in woods.

    This game is art come to life everything in this world is beautiful and you could just put the controller down and enjoy the environment and the music. The lighting and texture of everything is breathtaking. The gameplay is as well amazing deciding weather to fight as a samurai or ghost this game gives you many options for how to handle this world.

    The developer really took an effort on researching everything about 13th century Japan. The game is really beautiful, though the gameplay needs improvement it could be fixed in the future patches... I really love the authenticity it presents, I was like watching or playing a Japanese Samurai movie. I recommend everyone to buy this game because it pays homage and utmost respect to Japanese culture.

Система сражений на первый взгляд кажется очень простой, но когда начинаешь встречать врагов просто путешествуя по миру, то они могут неплохо подпортить настроение, боевая система проработано хорошо, удары чувствуются, она выглядит зрелищно и она тяжелая для освоения новичку в мире игр, и это хорошо, на высоком уровне сложности в игре тебе никогда не бывает скучно. Графика в игре очень красивая и живописная, это не технологический прорыв, но тоже очень хороший уровень. Теперь к плохому, почему в игре такого размаха не проработаны мелкие детали ? Почему я не могу оставить свой след и срубить маленькое дереве мечом ? Это такие мелкие детали которые уже должны быть в играх. Это все придирки которые я могу из себя выдавить, кроме того что в игре нет красивых женщин из-за невидимой руки сами знаете кого. У них получилась очень хорошая игра которая скрасит один месяц лета, я искренне надеюсь что они пофиксят проблемы патчами Expand

    This is the most incredible looking game I've ever played. The beauty of this game is comparable to God of War but unlike GoW, this is an open world game which makes it even more incredible. The UI is minimalistic which makes you look at the beautiful world instead of having your eyes focusing on quest markers. The combat is very much like AC Odyssey but it is done much better.

This games makes you experience the lethality of you as a samurai unlike Odyssey where enemies can take hundreds of hits to take down.

    It falls short of 10/10 for me because:
    1. Story is pretty generic.
    2. It does not have a huge breakthrough moment in gaming But regardless, it is a very very good game.

I enjoy this game so much and love its diverse playstyle so much I wanted to give it a 10. The drawbacks I've found were minor but some movement issues and a few weapon tracking issues keep it from being perfect. Still, if you are a fan of sword fighting, samurai movies or games or good action games this one's for you! I personally feel that assassins cred games should take a good look at this game and add our use aspects of its stealth, enemy actions and combat. Expand

The story is impactful and evolving showing a developing mental and emotional state in the lead character. Jin struggles with following the traditions of the Samurai code or leaning into the dishonorable world of assassination. The mechanics and narative even make you feel dishonorable as you play in stealth but reward you with a sense of propriety when facing foes straight on as dictated by the Samurai code.

Graphics look like a PS3 game, facial expressions are not that good and the game has evident technical problems (with slow downs and other issues). The atmosphere is good, OK, but that’s absolutely not enough. It plays and looks like any FarCry game, but with a Samurai approach.

    Ghost of Tsushima accomplished what they set out to do, in creating a aesthetically gorgeous game and really capturing an essence of what it could of felt like to be a samurai, to a degree. I truly love the game and is in my top 10, but it's the stubborn history buff in me that is holding me back from giving it a perfect score.( atleast have jin use a tachi instead of a katana lol).

    This game is amazing! From the graphics to the stunning sound effects. I love the fact that I spent the first 12 hours of my time with it doing side quests and just exploring every nook and cranny. The combat system is dynamite and made me feel like a total bad ass. Some combat encounters were very challenging but never seemed unfair. This is an amazing way for Sony to transition to nextThis game is amazing! From the graphics to the stunning sound effects.

In my opinion this is the game of the year thus far....insert cyberpunk. Not TLOU2 which was a train wreck and an absolute abomination, Neil druckman ruined that franchise! Expand

    One of the best PS4 exclusives , this is PlayStation studios's first open world a la Ubisoft type game and as all the rest of the PS exclusives were hailed as best in class in their own genre , sucker punch nails it masterfully with a majestically beautiful open world with top tier sword combat and with tons to do .

    For me this is reality Thanks for sucker punch for this great game

    The gameplay is so good and satisfying. Every strike had its weight. The side missions is unique and the progression system feels simple yet so deep and has a lot of variety. This game is certainly worth your hard earned money. Go buy it now.

    Nossa que jogo espetacular, mesmo tendo sofrido um downgrade gráfico dos trailers (que é normal), esse jogo é lindo demais. Toda a ambientação foi muito bem feita, com uma jogabilidade muito gratificante.

    overall the game is amazing, the world is visually beautiful,the game play immersive, the story is interesting and filled with twists and turns, and there is enough content in the video game where you could binge play it for days and still not be done with the with it. I would give it a 10 but I think the some things could use a slight improvement.

I would give it a 10 but I think the some things could use a slight improvement. EX: the controls are overly complicated and though they try to simplify it, its hard to memorize all of the commands meaning your bound to make an error in a fight. I also feel like the auto save feature needs more work; there are times where you'll auto save every few minutes and then there are times where it'll be like 20 minutes since your last auto-save meaning you'll have to manually save as much as possible. Another issue is the sneaking aspect, the enemies can see you from a mile away and it does get sort of agitating when you're doing sneaking missions. another thing that the game does is that it tries and fails to be infamous, the choice mechanic does not really factor into how people perceive you in the game, as a matter of fact, there are points where doing something that a samurai would deem dishonorable is mandatory so it skews the line between what is morally right and wrong.

    Very beautiful visuals. Fun game with an alright story. Could use some improvements in enemy AI and clunky combat system. Sometimes you want to attack an enemy but Jin is static facing something else and the camera can get lost many times. I love the standoffs the most.

    A true work of art. Definitely my biggest contender for GOTY. If you’re a fan of samurai culture, samurai cinema, or anything in between, I can’t recommend this game enough. Sucker Punch really outdid themselves.

    This year Sony has had some of the best exclusives I've played (FF7 Remake, this game; Ghost of Tsushima) and then some of the worst (The last of us 2). This shows a worrying dichotomy and huge lack of faith in, or growing disonesty from big name journalists (IGN, Polygon, VG 24/7 etc) whom players are meant to trust. Never again will these journalists be trusted; only seen as a joke.

Never again will these journalists be trusted; only seen as a joke. Why? FF7 Remake was scored an 8/10 bizarrely, this brilliant game scored a 9/10, whilst the disastrous and very poor story/characters of TLOU2 gave it a 10?. Ghost of Tsushima far, far surpasses TLOU2, in terms of non linear open world gameplay, solid enjoyable gameplay, combat, physical exploration, some puzzling, and most of all a fantastic story and characters. The visuals are some of the most pretty I've seen alongside RDR2. The combat better than the Witcher by a fair margin (it feels solid and every strike meaningful) there's alot of skills to unlock and even different fighting stances. Plus crafting and generous customizing/gear dying to make the hero Jin Sakai your own. The music and sound effects are done well, and the voice acting very good. The only thing I could honestly fault is the stepping down or dropping (not climbing) from rocks and ledges can be a bit janky. Overall, a fantastic game, probably one of the best Japanese sword games I've played since Tenchu made it's debut on PS1. And a Sony exclusive that washes away the bad memory and journalists lies of TLOU2. Expand

    It's like if Ubi made AC game with Far Cry progression - do stuff, get upgrades. No colored gear and crappy RPG systems that makes no sense, no levels and all of that. Combat feels very impactful.

    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.
