    Great game.really loved the environment and the combat. Nothing comes close to this game when it comes to story and combat and probably even graphically.

    I am typically a COD gamer, but a few open world map games catch my eye from time to time. I saw this game, read the story line and from the minute my hands touched the controller I was immersed in this game. The story line was amazing. Fast loading screens. Often on games you are left feeling like you are running out of resources. I never once on this game felt that way.

I loved all the different abilities and that you were not often forced to sneak around. Also the graphics on this game were some of the best I have ever seen. I would buy anything sucker punch from this day forward based strictly on this game alone and I have never heard anything about them before this, but they got my vote and I will be looking for their next game or a sequel to this game.… Expand

    I highly recommend buying this game. It's so refreshing to see originality in a game without identity politics or a narrative being forced on gamers. If you are looking for amazing graphics, 3D sound, superb gameplay, and an excellent story, then look no further.

    Es un increíble juego con escenarios Hermosos más de una vez te quedas mirando al horizonte viendo tremenda hermosura de paisaje, el juego es repetitivo en ciertas ocasiones pero lo compensa con una buena jugabilidad y una muy buena historia GOT es un juegazo

    Прошёл игру сегодня со всеми дополнительными квестами. Это потрясающее, аутентичное приключение. Все задания интересные, нет типичных "сходи-принеси три ветки оливы". Каждая сайд-миссия оформлена и ощущается, как отдельное приключение, история, над которой трудились, убирая лишнее. Не было заданий, которые я бы захотел убрать из игры из-за их бессмысленности.
    Красивейший мир. Да,    Прошёл игру сегодня со всеми дополнительными квестами. Это потрясающее, аутентичное приключение. Все задания интересные, нет типичных "сходи-принеси три ветки оливы". Каждая сайд-миссия оформлена и ощущается, как отдельное приключение, история, над которой трудились, убирая лишнее. Не было заданий, которые я бы захотел убрать из игры из-за их бессмысленности.
    Красивейший мир. Да, технически графика устарела, но не настолько, чтобы воротить нос от нее. Мы стали забывать, что игры ценны не только визуалом. Хотя мы и вправе требовать определенного технического уровня от AAA, особенно когда соседи показывает вау-эффект, но игра - это в первую очередь впечатления, эмоции, опыт. Если в игре сама ИГРА крутая, то графика отходит на второй план. Играм на Switch скудная графика, например, не мешает быть увлекательными. В Цусиме меня смущали некоторые элементы графики первые пару часов. Я думал: "Ну как так можно, 2020 год, что это за мутные текстуры, почему герой лазает так, как-будто у него реактивный ранец за спиной" и т.д. Но потом это уходит. Ты погружаешься в игру, как это было в детстве, когда угловатые головы рассказывали цепляющие истории и срать было на графон.
    Анимации лиц и движений в Цусиме отличные. В динамике все выглядит потрясающе, работа художников великолепна. Бои ощущаются круто, проходил на самом сложном уровне, который недавно появился. Рекомендую на нем, там есть вызов и реальное чувство борьбы, все механики начинают работать. По структуре сюжет напомнил Mass Effect 2, когда мы собираем команду, выполняем их хотелки, а они потом нам помогают, а в конце прем на самоубийственную миссию. Приятная отсылка. Финал сильнейший. Саундтрек - в душу. Я кайфанул от игры. Эмоционально на 9 баллов чистыми. Жду кооператив.    … Expand

    From sly cooper to infamous Sucker punch has already proved itself as a competent studio, which placed some high expectations on Ghost of Tsushima.

SuckerFrom sly cooper to infamous Sucker punch has already proved itself as a competent studio, which placed some high expectations on Ghost of Tsushima. I'm glad to say that my expectations were wholly exceeded here. The game is beautifully constructed, with environments being enjoyable to traverse as well as simply stop and take in, particularly because of the judicious use of color. Sucker Punch has managed to create numerous vibrant and beautiful environments that feels like places on a summer vacation must visit list rather than impossibly beautiful game locations. Most importantly the game's systems (HUD especially) allow for the player to soak it all up without a single UI element blocking your view. The system of wind guiding you to your goals, and songbirds bringing you to nearby locations of interest allows for a no-HUD experience that is enchanting rather than frustrating. The gameplay is a joy as well, with combat feeling especially satisfying. In a memetic twist on the immortalized words of IGN, this game makes you feel like a samurai, with a fluidity to combat that arises from an expertly tuned learning curve. The suite of abilities here feels necessary as enemy challenge ramps up throughout the game due to their skill and speed, rather than artificial feeling health and damage buffs. The storyline is something that started off slowly, and there was certainly a worry that Jin would end up one-dimensional and lifeless, but as mission dialogue and custscenes continued, it became apparent that there was a deeper layer of emotion behind Jin's stoic exterior. This was due to the excellent writing as well as the shockingly good japanese voice acting. Personally, I am without any understanding of the language, and for me the emotion came across very clearly, without any hammy overacting or wooden lines. Numerous scenes of this game reminded me of Kurosawa's Kagemusha, with the beautiful colors, visually arresting scenery and framing, and the complex and emotional through-lines of the story. If there was to be a single complaint in this game, it would likely be that some of the side content (not the companion quests, which are excellent) is very one-note. Often times a side quest is a very simple story, along the lines of " my wife is missing go find her." Which ends in finding a dead body and some bandits. Even these simple quests do have subtlety to them, and good gameplay, voice acting and framing allow for them to avoid being completely boring. There's also the fact that this game shipped without any bugs, completely finished, with no micro-transactions, something that unfortunately needs to be specifically supported with the proliferation of highly consumer-unfriendly business practices in the industry. Overall this is a must-play if you own a PS4, and this will almost certainly be remembered as the swan song of the PS4's library.… Expand

    Amazing open world samurai game, Scenery is very stunning and the story was well written. The ending was perfect and it also had me in tears, it was one of the best games I've ever played. I hope theres a sequel in the future! And on top of that an update for multiplayer is being added into the game as well

Beautiful visuals, I can't even begin explain how many hours I spent riding the coast and exploring the island on my trusty horse, the combat is smooth and flowing and while repetitive, fun. The storyline was beautiful, the amount of twists and heartbreaking moments that really brought the emotion out was great, I easily got attached to characters and felt loss when they died. Even the side stories had me invested completely with the amazing voice acting. The only complaint I currently have is the lack of a new game + so I can expierence it all over again with my cooler armor from the start!… 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.
