    Really enjoyed my time playing, currently finishing up extras. The combat flows good, like the Batman Arkham series but with bladed weapons. The time period is very interesting, which adds to the feeling of being the unstoppable “ghost”. I decided to wait until next gen to play, but I definitely should’ve played this game sooner.

    Absolute masterpiece of a video game! The combat is some of the best I've ever seen in a single player game. The environment and graphics are stunning and breath-taking. Several times I'd stop in my tracks in awe of the sunset, or flowers blowing in the wind. This is a must-play if you have a Playstation.

    Great graphics, great gameplay, good sound, but very bland and weak story. I recommend it if you like the Japanese / samurai theme or Akira Kurosawa movies, otherwise just buy it only on sale.

    Para mí parecer, es un videojuego muy aburrido que se hace largo a partir de las 10 horas de juego. Las misiones son super repetitivas y el ir de un sitio a otro se hace muy pesado. El personaje principal no tiene ningún carisma ni personalidad. Eso sí la ambientación es increíble y acompañan los gráficos.

    * This review is made on the original release of the game, without the DLC and the update of the Director’s Cut
    * More specifically, this review is based on the version of the game of the 6 september 2020

    Pro:
    + Super fast loadings, making fast travel and losing fights not annoying
    + Good graphic
    + Nice landscapes
    + Really good photo mode
    + Cinematographic cutscenes
    + Well balanced at any difficulty
    + Good story and characters
    + Every side quest has a unique story
    + Platinum trophy does not require to get all collectibles or to play at a specific difficulty
    + Good combat system, with different possibilities for approaching a fight
    + Nice fashion possibilities for the protagonist's outfit
    + Having the wind as a marker for objectives is really cool and it works
    + You can pet foxes
    + Small but good role-play possibilities
    + Enemies don't have an hive mind
    + You can keep playing after finishing the main story
    + Very few bugs for an open-world
    + There are different methods to find easily the points of interest of the map or the collectibles
    + The world is neither too big or too small
    + Japanese dub
    + You will find more resources and receive more exp than the ones needed to fully upgrade your character, so that it can be done without completing the game at 100%
    + Good tutorials

    Cons:
    - Kurosawa mode is not well implemented
    - Enemies' AI is pretty dumb
    - Enemies have too much tracking with attacks
    - No NG+
    - Dialogues and cutscenes cannot be skipped (but cutscenes will not be replayed when losing a fight)
    - The main and side stories and thematics are pretty simple
    - Most side quests are more or less the same gameplay-wise
    - You cannot pet your horse whenever you want
    - You cannot change the protagonist's position or pose during photo mode
    - Sometimes it's hard to find the shopkeeper you need in a village/town
    - Switching between weapons or bow ammos mid-fight without getting hit is sometimes pretty hard
    - Tutorials are sometimes really invasive, pausing the game mid-fight
    - No track of the playtime

    Miscellanous:
    * There are different options for audio, display and controls, but they're not as good as they could (and some even should) be
    * The combat system lacks a manual targeting function. It's hard to deal with it at the beginning, but since it has been thought to be like that, you'll get used to it after a few hours. Though, sometimes the game's auto-target doesn't work as it should.
    * If rushed, the game lasts ~20/30 hours. If completed at 100% ~50/60 hours. Most players play it for ~40 hours.    … Expand

The gameplay, however, is extremely one-note.

    I think this is because unlike other open world RPG's like Horizon, Skyrim, and even God of War, in Ghosts of Tsushima you fight the entire game with the same weapon. And the only "stats" you can progress are really just health, melee damage, and amount of damage taken by an enemy. And this is mostly based on which armor you're wearing. I didn't find much use for most of the different armor sets you unlock, since again--there isn't a lot of variety of stats for them to affect. And the gameplay is pretty basic, so it doesn't impact the gameplay all that much either. I upgraded the default armor all the way and used that a majority of the time.

    The game has a few extra things to help you in battle, like wind chimes, firecrackers, bombs, etc. But you can only carry about 3 of each, so it's not really game changing to have them. I honestly didn't even use them much aside from the final boss fight because I was desperate to fight off the waves of enemies. I was making due just fine with the basic stealth kills since the enemies were spaced out a lot most of the time.

    The missions are extremely monotonous. I never felt like I was doing a whole lot, despite the long cut scenes that you can't skip, of characters telling you how important these missions are to them. And the game itself wasn't very long. You can do the main story missions and finish it pretty quick.

    Then finally, the main story is pretty basic and kinda stupid. Your uncle is mad that you're saving everybody just because it isn't the samurai way. It's annoying to hear him complain so much about it while you're out here saving lives.

    A fairly underwhelming game. I hope the sequel has more of a variety of things so that it feels like you're actually progressing. Made me wanna play something better once it was over, TBH.    … Expand

    The game is beautiful to look at. The combat is fine but ultimately is not interesting or complex enough for the length of the game. The story is fine but I was a little underwhelmed. But overall it was an above average game and I don't regret playing it.

For every thing sucker punch has gotten right with their new IP they've completely missed the mark on two others.

    Some examples:

    1) An incredibly complex and well crafted progressive combat system. The problem here is that the game is so painfully easy on even the hardest difficulty that there is almost no need for such a combat system making it a waste of effort on the developers part. The only times i died after the first couple of hours has always been due to the camera issues. Which brings me to the second problem with the combat...the absolutely horrible camera angles. All the enemy types and boss fights can be breezed through with absolutely no effort whatsoever, as long as the camera doesn't decide to screw you over. Indoor fighting? Out of the question. Coming close to any object in the world mid fight? Completely blocks the camera. You dodge an enemy and get behind him? Better hope you can turn the camera fast enough before he counter attacks. And the list goes on and on with the camera issues.

    2) The world is incredibly well crafted both graphically as well as exploration wise. The navigation mechanics are very original, unique and unlike any other game. So what's the issue here? Well if you want to make an aggressive build for you character you get all the best gear that you need in the first 3 hours of the game. Effectively making any exploration for better gear obsolete. This turns the exploration into nothing more than xp farming to get new skills unlocked. Which are all skills that make an already incredibly easy game even easier.

    3) The story is very well written when you look at the dialog and character development. The English voice acting isn't top of the line by any means but is more than adequate and far above the average for most games. But every step of the way when progressing through both the main storyline as well as the side quests, more and more plot holes are added. And worst of all, everything is extremely predictable down to the tiniest details. You will see everything coming from a mile away. Not just simply with the main plot twists, but even within each individual dialog between characters you can predict every single sentence that will be said before they actually say it.

    Overall great potential that completely missed the mark

Enemy AI is laughably dumb, camera can get in the way too much and there isnt much that can be done to remedy this since you fight with the face buttons. Stance switching wasnt very nuanced at all. Just there to stagger enemies and leave them open. Most other attacks you unlock for stances are pretty much useless as they arent anymore viable than your basic moves. Other aspects of the gameplay include doing some pretty great side stories, some of which span the entirety of the game with many twists and turns. Although the endings to them can be hit or miss. This gane never really gets repetitive either. Theres alot of different collectibles to find and mongol territories to do. But since you can tackle then in any order its really your fault if it becomes repetitive. The story was well done with well written characters. Some archs i wouldve liked to see a bit more fleshed out. Overall, this game was good and I welcome a sequel if Sucker Punch chooses to return to Jin Sakai in the future.… Expand

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

    Going back to my first sentence. Growing up my father would tell me stories about the legacy of my family, how if not for our contributions and that of the many other samurai families that still mainly reside in Kyushu, that Japan might not even exist. So to see first hand a depiction of this era was just breathtaking. I actually got to get a glimpse of what it was like for my ancestors saw and felt.

    The game goes an amazing job of making you feel like you are fighting an uphill battle. Even though the island is naturally beautiful, scenes of death permeate the pristine landscape. An amazing duality of the beauty of our world and the macabre horrors of war.

    The combat is very deliberate and very gory. Your strikes feel very impactful, when you slice a person they feel it and it shows. Their comrades react accordingly, reeling in shock at their compatriot being decapitated in front of them and often stagger backward in terror.

    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.

If you love the samurai ninja theme then this game is like a wet dream.

I had zero expectations and went in fresh, but within hours i could already tell this was gonna be my favorite ps4 game so far. This game will take you on a journey through old feudal Japan fighting back at the mongol invaders as ons of the last of your clan. The Island is full of mystique and hidden areas. Hot springs, waterfalls, bamboo forests, hidden caves and settlements its all here, the artistic style with oversaturated colours are really really impressive. The combat is so well done, u need to be quick on your feet and adapt the correct stance for each enemy you face, its a thrill to be dodging weaving and parrying incoming attacks. Im playing on hard and its just so fun and punishing at the same time. The amount of content is amazing. So many skills te evolve and upgrade. Different skill trees for techniques, stances, special moves, ninja weapons like a blow dart with different poisons, short and long bow with a range of different arrows.

    Take my word for it this is a masterpiece and you will enjoy every minute you spend in this game. Sucker punch really put a lot of effort and love into this game and it shows. As of now my favorite ps4 game. Buy this game to support sucker punch because we need more games like this!! Im out    … Expand

    Great game, but nothing up to its hype! Decent graphics (but see God of War, Last of Us 2 for best results), gameplay fairly repetitive and not the best camera (no lock-on feature for enemies and messy close quarter situations). NPCs and secondary characters could use some brushing up too, and don't look the best esthetically.

Storylines and quests seem to be a little stray with timelines as you can do side quests that mention things that have already happened. You will miss out on 50 percent of the story if you don’t play the side quests which I found out 2/3 through the main story. Also stealth in this game is too easy and kind of pointless as AI are dumb as bricks when compared to Last Of Us 2. Wish there was some unique environment interactions too. For the most part this is an amazing game with extremely fun gameplay and upgrades. However I feel there’s some glitches and fixes they could’ve made, maybe some more armor and unique gear, unique encounter, combat interactions. Pacing seems not well thought out and slow at some points, during nearly every quest you’ll find yourself walking 20 ft from a cutscene only to find yourself in another half ass cutscene. I wish they would just use the high level cut scenes and only when needed. There also isn’t any newgame plus which hurts the longevity I’ll play. I play this game solely for the combat and Japanese setting. And that wins me just enough but isn’t blowing me away. This game isn’t necessarily breaking any ground other then being the most beautiful Samurai/ninja game.… Expand

    The graphics and art style are stunning!. I mean who knew PS4 (in my case a pro) could display such astonishing graphics. I found myself wondering around and stopping at locations to just enjoy the soothing visuals. I seldom take photos in games but GOT has almost made me a photo addict helped by the simple process of clicking right to access the photo mode.
    When Sucke Punch announced there will not be waypoints to the objective I got worried but I can say that the natural system of using wind and animals to guide you to where yo need to go works really well.
    I really cannot stress out how enjoyable the game is. It can become a little repetitive and some of the side missions may feel more like a filler but I found myself spending hours playing this game an, often, finding it difficult to stop playing.

I'd have prefered to be able to pick a subtitle that fit the jap voicelines better.

    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.
