    Holy **** **** This is the greatest Samurai game this generation. Story, Presentation, Graphics are top notch .Sekiro and Nioh are just novelty games. Kurosawa would've been proud.

    10/10

    È parecchio bello e anche la grafica è una cosa assurda, il gameplay lo trovo piacevole ed il fatto che ti dia la possibilità di esplorare l'isola di tsushima liberamente è davvero un'ottima cosa

    This game is simply phenomenal. Story, characters, gameplay, graphics, atmosphere, all top tier. Growing into "The Ghost" was one of the dopest, most exciting things I experienced in a game.

Growing into "The Ghost" was one of the dopest, most exciting things I experienced in a game. As your legend grows, you hear more people whispering tales about you out in the world. Incredible, incredible story arc. The combat makes you feel like that badass wandering Samurai you've seen in all forms of media. Sucker Punch nailed it perfectly. I started as the "Samurai", rushing down all opponents, but eventually decided to play more stealthy as the game progressed and it enhanced my fun even further. Mixing the two styles just feels amazing. Relaxing in the beautiful world Sucker Punch created can legit be it's own form of meditation. The art direction here is insane. The side quests (which are not fetch quests and are very entertaining) kept me pushing for more. So much so, I was afraid I would run out of things to do. After just finishing, there is still so much left. There are some issues, like the camera at times, but it was really nothing compared to everything else. I love it.… Expand

    It's not a bad game per se. But honestly it could be just another Assasin's Creed Cowabunga or whatever. Just another open-worldish tower clearing clone game.
    Gameplay is eh, music is all right.
    Graphics are being weird, sometimes it looks alright, but some cutscenes are so poorly directed that it feels like a 15y.o. mmorpg cutscene~ Overall impression is just meh, probably buy it if    It's not a bad game per se.

    Oh also main storyline is around 8-12 hours, the rest are just copy-paste grindy sidequests    … Expand

    No other game has got me into exploration as this one did. I decided to do a few side missions before going on with the main story, and several hours later, I’m still exploring undiscovered locations and doing side missions.

    Ghost of Tsushima isn't the most groundbreaking game of all time. It doesn't need to be.

    Sucker Punch manages to breath some new life to the old open world - genre. Genre that is often plagued by meaningless collectibles and sidequests. I didn't get that from GoT. Beautiful world to explore and if some granny wants you to whoop some mongol-ass, sign me up. The combat is phenomenal. For    Ghost of Tsushima isn't the most groundbreaking game of all time.

    Ghost of Tsushima is in one word Gorgeous. Following the wind to reach your destinations is the most unique and befitting a samurai game. The combat is exciting and evolves over time, the photo mode is brilliant and trust me ,you will be taking alot of pictures.

    looks gorgeous. My biggest take is the absence of HUD, so you get to immerse yourself in the environment as the wind is used to guide you to your next location. My biggest gripe with most open-world games is having to spend half the time looking at the mini-map and this game solves it beautifully.

    Also, there is no level gating, where you can't fight an enemy because they are 30 levels    looks gorgeous.

    Also, there is no level gating, where you can't fight an enemy because they are 30 levels above you. The combat is fluid and really satisfying (playing on hard). The loading times in the game are only a few seconds, which is surprising given it is running on HDD and such old hardware.

    The photo mode is rich with features. The customization and charms are fun. I feel this is the game that everyone wanted an Assassin's Creed in Japan to be    … Expand

    Sucker Punch has created a gorgeous open world, with slick, satisfing combat and an interesting and varied open world. I'm only about 8 hours in but have so far enjoyed only a small portion of the what the game has to offer but I'm loving it so far. Congratulations Sucker Punch

    Cons- -Playable character is able to walk through dead bodies. Minor but this lack of detail is slightly disappointing.
    -The camera can be slightly annoying at times. When fighting a group the camera constantly needs to be adjusted. It’s even worse when fighting in a forest as trees tend to obstruct your view
    -companions have a habit of getting in the way -For an open world game I felt it could have been a touch longer I would recommend you buy this game, especially if you are into Samurais or Japanese history/culture Sucker Punch have certainly pulled it out of the bag this time. Perhaps on the next update or any future sequels the game could be refined just a little.    … 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.
