    If you like Nioh, Sekiro, Tenchu or Ninja Gaiden then you will enjoy this game. It’s fun and I love the setting. Also there is no agenda or **** politics either. Lots of blood and action. Cool skill trees and techniques to unlock. Open world samurai action all day. Worth the purchase for me...

    Es uno de los mejores titulos de la generación, el mundo es hermoso, la música es hermosa, los personajes interesantes y con una probable secuela, poco se puede decir sobre lo impresionante que es jugarlo, si te gusta la cultura japonesa, si te gustan los videojuegos en general, cómpralo.

    I'll keep it very short. It has the best world design of any video game I've played and the main + side stories are very compelling. The atmosphere is unmatched. The combat is deep. It has some minor flaws, but the great things are much bigger in number.

    Amazing experience! I have played about 20 hours and I'm still on Act 1 with multiple things to still do. Game is a love child between Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Red Dead Redemption 2....with Samauri and Ninjas. Graphics make you want to live in the game world. Must buy.

At first it reminded me of Sekiro, then turned in to tenchu... If I can put this game next to a masterpiece like breathe of the wild; I 100% would.

    Only reason why is not perfect.. I don’t like there is no locking on a enemy. Other than that. The game is excellent! It’s a great contender for game of the year!    … Expand

    This game is honestly completely breathtaking. As ign would say, this game really makes you FEEL like a samurai, and I mean that. This game somehow manages to be challenging while somehow making you feel invincible at the same time. The best part is definitely the environments, which can only really be compared to the Witcher 3 in terms of sheer beauty, but I think Ghost looks even better. This game can be both calming and beautiful and fast and action packed. My only criticism is that characters have pretty bad facial animations during cutscenes. Its annoying.
    Apart from that, perfection.

    Это просто хорошая игра, в которой интересно драться и следить за историей.

    По поводу вторичности: как по мне, индустрии не хватает таких "обычных" игр без уклонов в гениальность. Days Gone - был великолепен несмотря на вторичность, ты просто забивал на эти "ух ты" и просто играл, и просто получал удовольствие, с Цусимой тоже самое. Эксклюзивы от Сони категории B? А почему бы и нет...    Это просто хорошая игра, в которой интересно драться и следить за историей.

    Lots of minor bugs don’t take away from the fact that this game is simply fantastic. The cinematography, the story, the combat system, character progression, the graphics (foliage, drawing distance) are all there. It feels like Red Dead 2 in a Samurai World, but it also lends great mechanics from other established games like stealth (Assassins Creed/Last of Us) and platforming (Uncharted).Lots of minor bugs don’t take away from the fact that this game is simply fantastic.

The combat feels like a more satisfying version of For Honor with a bit of Arkham stealth mechanics sprinkled in for good measure.

    This game is amazing. To put it simply: It makes you feel like a samurai in Japan.

    Presentation: The visuals are beautiful. It goes for a mix of realism and artistic painting that completely makes you believe in the world on one side, and be simply mesmerized by the colors and the movement of the leaves in the wind on the other side. The sound and the voice acting are very good. in    This game is amazing. To put it simply: It makes you feel like a samurai in Japan.

    Presentation: The visuals are beautiful. It goes for a mix of realism and artistic painting that completely makes you believe in the world on one side, and be simply mesmerized by the colors and the movement of the leaves in the wind on the other side. The sound and the voice acting are very good. in particular, the sound of your sword when attacking and cutting through enemies never gets old. The music in this game will contribute to the feeling of immersion I mentioned earlier, the action pieces are going to keep you engaged through the encounters and the soft and more melodical pieces are very well done.

    Gameplay: The combat is fun and engaging, it keeps you on your toes constantly and in the hard difficulty in can be a serious challenge if not approached thoughtfully. Honestly one of the things I love about the game is that it keeps gamey elements that really make the experience a loooot better. For example: when riding on your horse, you can pick up resources and loot from the ground without having to get off the horse. This is just an example, but the game is filled with stuff like that and it gets away with those things because of the strong immersion it generates with its atmospherical music and visuals. In my opinion the gameplay loop (meaning the things that are the main elements of the game that you do over and over again) is extremely fun and well done. It is because of how fun the combat and the gameplay is that you will forgive a few things that you will need to get used to. Among these things: the sometimes bad camera will take some time to adjust to (once you understand and adjust to the camera, it gets a lot better) ; the movement of the character when traversing vertical obstacles doesn't feel very fluid; and the enemy AI is a bit lacking sometimes. These issuers are not game-breakers at all and in my personal opinion, you get used to them and accept the game as it is because it is so damn fun.

    Overall: you need to play this game. The visuals alone are a reason to experience it. If you add the addicting gameplay and combat you have a game that will keep you entertained and thinking about it for very long periods of time!    … Expand

    Great game with no identity politics shoved in our faces and an evil company vice president as the developer! Couldn't have asked for anything better with all of the crappy other games that have come out recently, what a breath of fresh air. and don't worry, there's no golf clubs in this game just dope katana's and tanto's.

    I love everything about the game. It is wonderful. The fights, the environment, the control mechanics, the story, side missions, upgrades and colors are perfect.

    The game has no issues to be addressed and it is better than all other historical open world games in the market.

    Splendid game. I have been thinking for some time after Seikiro, what if they made it into an open world game? I think this is the closest we will ever get.

I loved the atmosphere of the game. it felt also refreshing not to have the feeling that an agenda is being pushed on you like it is being done by many game developers nowadays.

    -Im back so the graphics are not perfect in a photo realistic way they are perfect in an artistic way
    -The gameplay is good they made so that the fact that you have a sword you one shot people without armour but those armored need more hits depending if they have baboo armour they need cca. max 3 hits and if they have metal armour they need up to six
    - The story is good and a saw people comparing to assassin's creed but without teaching you history. This game is not made to teach you history it is an made of story inspired from the Mongolian invasion not the actual recreation of the historical event and if you want to compare it to The last of us 2: it is a story told from another party perspective. People complaining about being a cookie cutter revenge plot they are wrong tlou2 was a cookie cutter revenge plot but boring and useless GHOST is a story about a lost worrior who in order to save people he needs to go against everything he was taught and everything his believes stood for. He doesn't know if the ways that he was taught works against his enemies - The world its not boring and empty how jurnalists say, you have alot to do in the world aside for the story and i am glad that its not overcrowded with pointless npcs just to use up my **** console performance. and being sort of empty and silent drags me even more in the beautifully looking world's atmosphere
    - The enemies are not dumb they are generic same as in tlou2 just in Ghost they dont **** scream in your ears to force you to feel guide and they dont have level they have other patterns and tehniques to fight you. And if its to easy for you change the difficulty lol dont play it on easy as i bet most journalists did.
    VERDICT : its a beautifully crafted world with a good "lost identity and questioning your believes to do good" story with alot of tought and love put into it with a not **** large open world map that it actually feels like a videogame and not a bad movie with gameplay being an add in-between.

Story wise its good with a clear story that is well told with a selection of characters that while not groundbreaking it is still good. Graphics wise probably the best i've seen on the PS4 hardware and is more of a colourful game compared to other flagship games on the PlayStation. In conclusion its everything i wanted from a game of this calibre there are issues i have but most of them are bugs that can be patched. Also those who are saying "Americans should not make a game about Japanese " like Digitally Downloaded said. The perfect famitsu score explains itself and generally it is a faithful recreation of the Japanese landscape. The game is not a historical documentary but so was not games like Yakuza 0 with the 80's bubble culture or Black ops with the 60's. a video game is for entertainment at the end of the day.… 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.
