    This is the first review I have ever written but I just could not let the dumbass critics get away with giving Ghost of Tsushima 83....83 WTF?? Like what are they comparing it too? Were they in such a hurry to score it that they didn’t even play much of it? Trust me, ignore them and just read the players comments on here and on YouTube videos and you will realise the critics take their jobThis is the first review I have ever written but I just could not let the dumbass critics get away with giving Ghost of Tsushima 83....83 WTF?? Like what are they comparing it too? Were they in such a hurry to score it that they didn’t even play much of it? Trust me, ignore them and just read the players comments on here and on YouTube videos and you will realise the critics take their job description to literally...they just like to be critical even when it’s not warranted!

    Ghost of Tsushima is a beautiful game, immersive, thoughtfully done making playing the game very user friendly ie the combat flows and is like no other, travelling around the world is a pleasure, the wind system is genius and the side quests are genuinely interesting and you feel invested in saving Tsushima.

    I’ve played hundreds of games on multiple platforms over many decades and this game stands out and is the easiest 10/10 I have ever given. Do yourself a favour and play it, you won’t regret it!    … Expand

    This game is totally inaccurate, because the mongolians don't use the sweet and sour pork trojan horse trap. 0/10

    The Best video game on the genre... borrows a lot of thing from other games and make it better. The art on the game is superb, and the combat!!! it’s incredible. No **** quick animations, not annoying stuff... Sucker Punch nailed it . Thank you

    A great open world 3d-person close combat fighting game worth every penny.

    * Excellent and engaging fighting system. The mixup of fighting different classes of enemy and choosing the right stance is a lot of fun. Parrying works well and the timing in the game mostly feels really good. There are moments when it can seem a bit broken but for the most time, it is spot on.

    They also managed to keep it manageable, there is not a crazy amount of combos that you need to memorize to have a chance.

    * A beautiful open world that is fun exploring - Not huge, but what is there is interesting and beautiful to look at. Art-style is really good, simple but well made. Not sprinkled with a bunch of filler stuff like so many other open world game, what is there is mostly fun and rewarding to do not just a bunch of stupid busy work.

    * Interesting story and characters.

    * Fair quality side-quests to do.

    * Main story requires just about the right amount of time to finish - not a story that drags on and overstays its welcome (im looking at you TLOU2, which I did like but the main story was way to long).

    * Boss fights are not that great. This to me is the one real weakness the game has, the boss fights feel very random and its hard to see a clear pattern to beat them. A lot of time I felt like I was unfairly punished when I "did step out of the way" or "did block" a hit.

    Overall, a great game with some minor flaws, but still in a league of its own    … Expand

    Beautiful and breathtaking. Open world feels like a Mixture of The Witcher and Far Cry. While quest directs are linear and you cannot change the outcome, it’s still beautifully done. The combat is unique, getting used to different stances felt a bit overwhelming at first, but it’s easy to get into after the 1st hour of play through.

    The most amazing experience I've had with a video game since Spiderman. I can kill mongols all day. Hell, even collecting cosmetic items is fun and addicting.

    If you, like me, desperately seek a game that could stand beside Witcher 3, seek no more, it's here. Ghost of Tsushima is a lesson learned from W3, with slightly worse presentation (subjective!) and much better combat mechanics. Quests are diverse and engaging and the open world just waits for you to explore. Great game!

    Ghost of Tsushima makes assassins creed origin and odyssey feel dated. And I really enjoyed those games. Sucker Punch created a stunning, living world. Graphics are insane, technology is smooth with some incredibly fast teleportation and gameplay mechanics is well though with the wind showing you the way. Yes it does not reinvent the open world genre but definitely push the envelope.Ghost of Tsushima makes assassins creed origin and odyssey feel dated. And I really enjoyed those games.

Every time I take the controller I feel like I going back to a world, not a game.

    A true masterpiece. Thank you Sucker Punch.

    Ps: I feel bad for those reviews giving this game a low score. How is it possible not the charmed by the elegance of this game. Advice: I recommend playing with Japanese audio and crank the difficulty to hard as soon as you feel powerful enough.    … Expand

    Excellent , phenomenal game, Very good gameplay, atmospheric, maybe little melancholic feeling. Great.I like it very much. Not egocentric, with humility goes the "last" samurai through his live.

    Beautiful game, world design very well reflects the atmosphere of feudal Japan. The music gives an extraordinary effect - the whole thing looks like Kurosawa's Seven Samurai. Some people compare this game to Assassin's Creed - it's something else.
    The story may not be of the highest caliber, but a well-balanced one allows you to feel the atmosphere of the samurai world.

    Having a blast with this game! Fast loading times, yet great graphics. Also not an insanely big map so that it feels overwhelming. Instead, enough to explore, do and enjoy every little detail of it. AI not always the brightest, but hoping they will patch this.

    Ghost of Tsushima is a Breathtaking experience with it's amazing Visuals and Sound design, It's engaging gameplay and brilliant story telling. the only thing i can actually nitpick at is the Camera when in fights which is why it gets a 9/10. Bloody love this game.

    A fantastic game. In particular, if you are a fan of the Tenchu games you should not miss this. It has exceeded my expectations in terms of gameplay and world building. The atmosphere is unmatched with great use of particles, lighting, and art design. The freedom to approach situations using stealth or swordplay or a combination of both is satisfying.

    Comecei no PS4 PRO, mas joguei 80% no PS5 a 60fps e 4k em um mundo sempre em movimento, é fantástico.Exploração em cada canto da ilha, evoluçãodo personagem em novas técnicas de espadas ou ataques furtivos, dezenas de duelos ao estilo Samurai. Complexidade do mundo japonês e história de tirar folego ao final. É simplesmente obrigatório pra quem gosta do estilo.

    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.
