    I just wanna start this review off by saying the first hour of gameplay doesn't even scratch the surface of what's in store for the game. You can find more and more ways to entertain yourself whether you're going for an honourable samurai or a dishonourable ghost or a little in-between you'll find yourself having fun the graphics are vibrant and the photomode is really something special

Sin ser tope gráfico, demuestra como aún después de 7 años una consola puede ofrecer mucho de si misma.

    Combate:
    Al principio es simple, pero con el progreso de nuestro samurai desbloquearemos 4 posturas de combate, cada una especializada en un conjunto de enemigos. Estas posturas tendrán su propio árbol de habilidades, como así también tendremos un árbol tanto para el camino del samurai como para el camino del shinobi. En este apartado me gustaría añadir que nuestra Leyenda crecerá en la Isla conforme vayamos liberando pueblos, ayudando a los ciudadanos, y derrotando jefes y elites mongoles.

    Banda Sonora:
    Es sencillamente hermosa, dándole ese toque japones a cada rincón de la Isla de Tsushima. Mérito a parte, se agradece que a pesar de ser un estudio occidental se hayan tomado el trabajo de doblar el juego en japonés y en latino.

    Historia:

    Esta muy bien llevada, poniéndonos en la piel de Jin Sakai, uno de los últimos Samurais sobrevivientes a la invasión Mongola. Nuestro viaje constará en reunir fuerzas aliadas en toda la isla para lograr expulsar a los invasores de la isla. En nuestro viaje tendremos 24 misiones principales, 7 cadenas de misiones con relatos de Leyendas del floklore japones muy bien elaboradas y con la obtención de habilidades únicas y poderosas, y 60 misiones secundarias ( de las cuales al menos un tercio de ellas son muy divertidas y épicas).

    Exploracion:
    Como ocurrió con Zelda BoTW, el juego nos invita a perdernos por la isla y aprovechar esa inmersión de casi no tener interfaz ni indicadores en pantalla. Guiándonos por el viento y los animales que nos llevaran siempre a coleccionables o templos. Sin duda un placer ver un juego que no te lleva de la mano en todo momento, y te permite que tomes tu propio rumbo para recuperar tu tierra natal.

    La única critica negativa que podría considerar en el título, es que al no contar con una fijación de objetivo puede haber momentos al comienzo del juego que en combates con un grupo de enemigos en el que la cámara nos lleve una mala pasada. Para los que no suelan usar esta función en otros juegos no tendrán problemas, y los que si al cabo de unas horas de combates uno ya domina ese aspecto.

    Resumen:
    Sin duda un Must Have de esta generación y un gran broche de oro para Playstation 4 como último exclusivo de la consola. 9.5/10    … Expand

    It’s a good game. No way around that. The graphics are top notch. The environment is beautiful. The story itself is about average, but it’s a fresh take on 13th century Japan that we don’t get to see often, which makes it more appealing in my opinion.

The side quests are the enjoyable so far though. The combat is good, but a little clunky. Nothing really innovative. Same goes for the stealth mechanics. For me there are two big downsides. The first being the camera positioning during combat. You have to control it with the right thumbstick instead of auto locking on enemies. It has caused me to take damage I otherwise wouldn’t have because of an enemy I couldn’t see off to the side or behind me. I’m actually a fan of games without “auto-locking”, but others have implemented it far better. The second issue is the touchpad controls, which can cause you to “emote”. There have been too many times where I have randomly started paying respects to random objects and people. The worst is when a mongol is in mid swing and all of the sudden you place your hands together and bow to him haha. Not so much the games fault, but rather my big fingers. I still wish there was an option to disable it. The controller might not like my big fingers, but in other aspects of life they have come in handy so I guess I’ll let it slide … Expand

    An absolute masterpiece on the level of Witcher 3 and Breath of the Wild. It's very clear that Sucker Punch frequently used the word "fun" during development! And if you think there might be some kind of mishandling of Japanese culture, or even some kind of agenda, please direct your attention to the perfect 40 score from Japanese review site Famitsu.

    I loved! this game is incredibly good, and more if you put it on maximum difficulty. Graphics and an excellent soundtrack. The exploration is the best! Something I hated about Zelda botw is the exploring, no good weapons, the world its so empty, and there are no secrets, instead the open world of Ghost of tsushima is majestic!

    This game is simply amazing I'm around 20 hours in but cannot put my controller down, because the gameplay is so much fun. The side stories about the supporting characters are great. I'm just in a third of the main story but I'm enjoying it so far. If I will something that I don't like I will edit my score. I forgot sometimes the camera doesn't act as you would wish but it's nothing terrible.

    Probably one of my favorite games of all time. The color palette, the music is so serene. Even the controls feel peaceful. A quick swipe on the touchpad will sheath your sword after an intense engagement.

    This game just gets better with every second you play it, the combat is just soo smooth, feels real, ever sword cut has weight to it. The story? ITS THERE for sure, this may be the only game where you are not getting bored by the flashbacks from the past

    Do you miss the old Assassins Creed if so this game is just for you. You can develop your own play style with the ghost armor for sneaky play styles the samurai armor if you play aggressive and the traveler armor for explorers. The game is simple and doesn’t overload you with mechanics and I’m going to go far enough to say that this game will win GOTY. The graphics are also astonishing.

    A game so very well paced and polished narratively, it's hard to not like it. The characters were fantastic, Jin Sakai, albeit slightly static and dense, is still an amazing individual. After losing everything, I have no idea why people expect him to be a individual with a lot of emotions. The side characters, so I wont go into much detail about, were given sufficient screen time and were all properly thought out.

    The world of Tsushima, empty, but beautiful. The moving foliage with fireflies and leaves fluttering around. The physics and variety in visuals is honestly the best I've ever seen in any game. Such artistic brilliance to its visuals creates a painting esque game which doesnt aim to be a shallow photorealistic journey. But it's not without its flaws, **** camera and god awful collisions. Especially while doing parkour, how Jin sometimes almost defies gravity as a bear sends him flying 6 ft above the ground. Still, these flaws can be easily ignored once you get immersed in the world. Camera will always bug you, and honestly, that's my only main gripe.

    Overall, voice acting, characters, narrative. 10/10. Even if the story might be cliche and predictable, it's still a game which has the soul of Japanese cinema. To give an authentic experience, not a unique one.    … 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.
