    Very beautiful game, the developers have tried to squeeze all the juice out of the PS4. The combat system is good, it's a shame that there is no dismemberment.

    I was pretty tired of open world...i must admit that i started this game with not much hype about it. I even stopped after 1-2 hours. Then i took my time and damn i was blown away. I want to explore everything i got hooked to the game badly to the point that i always want to play it and discover its world. Good f job !!!

    После покупки ПС 5, эта была первой игрой после Астробота, на ПС 4 не играл, все говорили это клон Ассасинов, а я их не люблю. Оказалось очень хорошей игрой, пейзажи поражают, музыка, стиль

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I started playing the game right after the release and had smaller and larger breaks in between. Now, after almost 50 hours, I'm done and very happy to have started it again and again.

    story

    For me the greatest strength of the game. The campaign is divided into three acts and shows a clear increase. Act 2 had parts that made me pause again and again, but the transition to act 3 and especially the last act raised the game by one point for me.

    The first Mongol invasion in Japan around the island of Tsushima is treated. You play the fictional samurai Jin Sakai, who establishes himself as a legend on the island in the course of the game and defies the Mongols with everything he has. Khotun Khan as Mongol leader wants to subjugate the island and Jin is forced to operate outside the ways of a samurai.

    I found the villain in particular to be a strongly chosen character who was staged very well and symbolized the strength and cruelty of the invasion. In connection with this, however, the rebellion of this island against the overpowering Mongol army through skill and solidarity was very successful.

    The game has some incredibly good dialogues and knows how to convince with the whole atmosphere it creates. In addition, there are many well-made cutscenes, but they have to cut back on facial expressions. For some characters that was just too wooden, too generic.

    In addition to these two main characters, there are also numerous minor characters who have done really well side quests. Although many are about revenge, the outcome is not always the same. Characters like Masako, Yuna or Sensei had nice quest series and really feel like Jin's constant companion and sometimes like newly made friends united to stop the invasion.

    The synchronization does the rest and is done very well, but I also played it in the original every now and then.

    Here are some more quest example highlights: The Spirit of Yarikawa, A Reckoning in Blood, Hidden in the Snow.

    Atmosphere / graphics / performance

    I've played the Ps5 in performance mode for the last 20 hours and it went absolutely smoothly. Wonderful to play. By the way, Tsushima Island looks fantastic. The different colors of cherry blossom petals and many other flora is simply beautiful to look at and offers you fantastic opportunities to use the photo mode again and again (I used it a lot).

    You never get bored of marveling at the scenery, riding through the landscape and enjoying the many colors.

    But not only the set design is convincing, the music also contributes immensely to the atmosphere and is just great to hear.

    All gold that glitters? What I especially missed about Tsushima were really striking places that really look great. The villages or smaller settlements or large fortresses were too generic for me, not present enough. I would have liked to have had more of these passages that are really remembered, such as the big Buddha statue in the Omi monastery.

    So you have a beautiful landscape, which lacks the distinctive villages in detail.

    I also have to say that I often had problems with all the NPC characters right at the end. They often went on the spot and I had to wait for it to continue. Maybe that was a bit of bad luck, as I hardly had any such problems in Act 1 or 2.

    An essential feature of the game is slowing down. Everything should be absorbed, played patiently and not rushed through hastily. Each mission is introduced with a character and the mission title and there is also a brief moment to pause after the mission. I'm actually a fan of slowing down and it didn't bother me during the main missions, but with other gameplay mechanics.

    A constant deceleration is not really my thing and has always led to the fact that I put the game aside again for the time being.

    For example very simple secondary tasks felt artificially inflated by this staging. You also had to spy out camps, etc., which really annoyed me because I often wanted to have the option to just go in front of the gate and challenge everyone and not be forced to play in stealth mode. Especially these stealth missions were too much for me and towards the end you were constantly forced to sneak past and act secretly.

    In any case, to underline Jin's struggle with himself and his samurai code, one has to go other ways, but I think that some situations could have been resolved with a choice. Also, I wouldn't always have needed the animations after each mission and would have gladly pushed them aside. As I said, it was too constant for me to slow down.

    The combat system is actually pretty awesome. You have many different ways to defeat opponents, especially many tools at hand such as e.g. the smoke bomb. You also have combo bars that you can fill up and the opportunity to heal yourself. I only recently played Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and even if Ghost of Tsushima is easy to fight, I think Sekiro is miles ahead.

    But all in all awesome Game! 9/10

    Первое что не понравилось это очень затянуты сюжет с кучей однообразный аванпостов «привет Юбисофт». Да и в целом сюжет крайне странный если бы Основной сюжет немного ужать и карту ужать до размера первого акта и все было бы намного лучше «откуда это дурное желание максимально растянуть сюжет? Или думаете чем больше часов нужно на прохождении тем лучше?»
    Второе графика и я говорю не о пейзажах они действительно очень красивые а о детализации взять следи они появляются крайне редко в частности они есть на некоторых крышах домов.
    Вода также выглядит странно да и детализация одежды не очень

    This is not the end of a generation I imagined on ps4.
    At first TLOU2 was very disappointing, and now the ghost did not live up to expectations, but still better than TLOU2.
    The first thing I didn't like was the very drawn-out plot with a bunch of monotonous outposts "hello Yubisoft". And on the whole the plot is extremely strange if the main plot was shrunk a little and the map was shrunk to the size of the first act and everything would be much better “where does this bad desire to stretch the plot as much as possible? Or do you think the more hours you need to complete the better? "
    The second is the graphics and I'm not talking about the landscapes, they are really very beautiful, but about the detail to take the traces, they appear extremely rarely, in particular, they are on some roofs of houses.

    This is how it's done. This game is fun to play and there's a ton of stuff to do. It helps that it also looks amazing. I've been playing it for several hours now and I've barely uncovered any of the map. This is going to be a game I take my time with and savor every minute.
    I hope Sucker Punch doesn't get destroyed from the inside the way Naughty Dog was because this game is excellent.

It is an extremely immersive experience unlike anything I've ever played. A true tale of revenge as it were (unlike another game, which shall remain nameless), which is wrought via the blade of a samurai. Initially I thought the combat mechanics were very rigged from watching gameplay. However, after now having played it...they're not as rigged as I thought (slightly so). I guess one could say the movements are somewhat accurate since the combat is more realistic based than fantasy, It's easy to see that Sucker Punch are truly fans of Japanese culture since their depiction is so vivid.

    There have been some who said combat is easy, but it's not...compared to Way of the Samurai 4 it is leagues harder because all enemies rush you at the same time (again more realistic based combat) versus enemies attacking one at a time. That said I give GOS a 9 (it would be a 10) because I feel like SP didn't go far enough with enemy deaths, such as cutting off limbs or decapitation from katana. I also feel like they stopped short with aesthetic customization's in that you can't color things the way you want, it's only preset colors. Overall though a solid game, very reminiscent of Tenchu...but also sets it's own benchmark.

    *Note: You really have to be a fan of either the Samurai culture (old Samurai movies) and or Japanese culture to truly appreciate this game.

The grass and leaves and wind give a movement and life to every moment which has not been seen before on playstation. The acting and facial animations are done well and the antagonists are interesting.
    The music is masterfully done, with some iconic pieces along with some really pleasant background music.
    The open world gameplay, a much loved genre, has been improved on in almost everyway. A cinematic and compelling main story, is supplemented with interesting and diverse side missions. On top of that, the open world staple 'copy and paste' missions, have nice gimics e.g. the fox, and are varied enough for them to soften any 'grind' these missions usually have.
    The combat is challenging and detailed, mixing assassins creed style stealth, with God of War level fights. Any fan of Tenchu will undoubtedly want to play this, and anybody who wants to feel like a strong hero can't go wrong with this game (even while retaining the challenging gameplay).
    This is a wonderful game, which has set the bar higher for open world games. Not only is it great, but the fact his is the new gold standard means I cannot help but give this game a 10/10. I look forward to playing Ghosts of Tsushima on the PS5, and also the sequels, which I hope will be made for decades to come.

    Una historia no muy especial pero que te engancha, sobre todo el último acto.

    Gameplay del combate buenísimo, una parte negra es el sigilo, un punto a mejorar

    Gráficamente no es un prodigio estilo RDR2 pero artísticamente una pasada, con el viento y los colores es increíble al igual que la banda sonora.

    Las misiones secundarias están bien, pero caso siempre es lo mismo, sigue unas huellas y mata varios mongoles, mejoraría ese punto también.

    Y por último lo que más me ha fastidiado del juego son:, los santuarios de zorros, las banderas y esas cosas qué en mi opinión con poner la mitad valdría, a veces se hace repetitivo.


    Deseando que saquen una segunda parte.

    One of the best combat systems I've encounter in a game. Lots of interesting, beautiful places to visit and pretty good story. Strongly recommend playing!

    Great game! More action adventure than RPG but absolutely beautiful, good story, good cutscenes. I was a huge sekiro fan and although this doesnt have the challenge of that game, it has great mechanics in its own right.

Duels are fun and on the hardest difficulty fairly challenging.

    Also another huge benfit, Suckerpunch has been amazing with updates and dlc. They launched some useful patches to improve the game and make it harder, then added an online hoard mode and even a raid! Ive been very impressed, cant think of another company that would add a raid as free DLC!

    Everything is stunning about the game. The gameplay is fun and addicting. The story and characters are dynamic and interesting. The Island of Tsushima is gorgeous. It's an amazing game that truly makes you feel like the savior of Tsushima.

The side missions and side objectives are a little on the weaker side but still very enjoyable. There is much to do in this game and great for someone who is a completionist as the game keeps tracks of what there is left to do. The skills unlocked through leveling up are worth while to work for. The combat in this game is superb and will complement the play style of any player. The combat slows smoothly and the change in stance for corresponding enemies is a very unique and excellent feature. The combat is by far my favorite part of the game. As I have said, I recommend this game to any play who is able to play it. Expand

    Uma boa narrativa e personagens, com uma ótima trilha sonora. Mundo aberto lindo com missões secundárias muito boas. Combate satisfatório e um excelente sistema de progressão. Tem alguns pequenos bugs, principalmente gráficos, mas nada que atrapalhe a experiência em um dos melhores jogos de mundo aberto da geração.

    A real masterpiece ..! The game is outstanding in terms of both the gameplay and the technical implementation! It is a feast for the eyes! The only point of criticism for me is the replayability. If you play the story 100% and get the platinum trophy, the game has next to no replay value. That is a shame and could have been solved better. Otherwise great game!

    For other reviewers: I've read alot of previous reviews from other users to see what they're opinion on Ghost of Tsushima was. Alot of people are extremely petty I noticed. "Who can play this without the camera being centered?" Are you seriously going to base 6 years of work off of "The camera." There have been and will be many AMAZING games without the camera being centered.

"Who can play this without the camera being centered?" Are you seriously going to base 6 years of work off of "The camera." There have been and will be many AMAZING games without the camera being centered. And nothing angers me more then those comparing this to assassin's Creed. Cause it most definitely isn't. It may have similarities but what game doesn't anymore? Assassin's Creed wasn't the first for anything. It was just the most popular.

    Onto the proper review now.
    Ghost of Tsushima is a massive open world game based on a real Japanese island. The story is intriguing but I found it could be buried in the countless hours of other things to do. Which wasn't entirely a bad thing. My largest issue is particularly the movement system in some situations, crawling through certain gaps requires the camera to be moved strangely and the parkour isn't extremely responsive or accurate. The swordplay is well done and the use of "Ghost weapons" compliment the combat system. The ranged weapons are simple and effective. No complaints there. The stealth combat is highly effective. I personally recommend playing on the "Hard" difficulty with expert HUD for a more immersive experience. The landscape and visuals to this game are quite pleasing to the eyes. Very colorful but also can be gloomy when need be. One thing I must compliment any game on is the lack of microtransactions. Nothing in game is purchasable there is no unfair advantage in co-op and no way to get ahead in this game early on. Without spoiling the story I can assure you it's quite interesting but if you like it will be down to you. None the less it's an extremely fun game.

    A beautiful, well crafted game.
    The story is entertaining, the gameplay is compeling. Also, the lenght of the game is just perfect and all the side stories can be completed without any effort. The characters are "alive", their story tells us about humanity and Jin`s struggle is well paced.

    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.
