    Very good game, the environment is beautiful, pushes this generation to the max in terms of visuals while also delivering some breath taking dialogue, loved it ever since it's original reveal, the open world adds so much to it.

Плюсы можете посмотреть у продажных блогеров. Игра очень скучная и монотонная. У вас есть основной квест. И он не как не зависит от стиля вашей игры. Разработчики построили простую сюжетную, линейную игру. К примеру, вы можете быть самураем, у которого честь при выше всего. Но сюжет вертел этот ваш отыгрыш и желания. Всю будет точно по сценарию. Или, например вы будете играть за скрытого шиноби. И сражаясь из тени. Это не как не повлияет на сюжет. Ну разве что вы увидите пару воспоминаний. И в 2020 этот подход выглядит очень тупо и скучно. Но это не худшее. Проблемы есть и в кветсах. Все, начиная от побочных заканчивая сюжетными сводиться к убийству монгол. И от этого начинает тошнить уже к середине игры. Они сделаны на столько монотонно и однообразно. Что под час вы просто стараетесь их избежать что бы не затягивать игру. Вы скажете, но квесты то хоть интересные? Нет. Они еще хуже. Они линейны и могут проходиться почти в любом порядке. Из-за этого рушится восприятие. Например, средний квест состоит из 9 миссий. В первой части карты 4 и во второй 3, и 2 в третьей части карты. Допустим в первой вы все проигнорировали начали выполнять во второй карет. И там выполнили все квесты потом вернулись в первую карту и начали с начала выполнять с 1 по 4. И в четвертом задание вы получаете координаты 5 который вы уже выполнили. Бредово звучит да? Но это так. В игре даже открытый мир тупо сделан. Вы можете найти сюжетную крепость, при приближении к которой вас тут же будут убивать 7-8 стрел из неоткуда. То есть, по сути, исследовать лучше уже когда все сюжетные квесты закончены. Тогда у вас не будет возникать вопросы почему из неоткуда в вас летят стрелы. Так же в игре нельзя пропустить не одной сцены. Вы зачистили лагерь монголов. Их тут много. Вам показывают один из трех роликов: «главный герой спит рядом с лошадью, стоит и смотрит на поселение или выжженый монгольский лагерь, показывают природу в конце вас». Это длится где-то минуту. Пропустить нельзя. Вот вам это будет нравиться, когда вы это увидите в 30 раз? И мне нет. А просто надпись что вы подняли уровень у святилища в 10 раз? В одной пробочке вам надо победить 4 абсолютно одинаковых генерала, при этом перед победой вы должны сжечь 4 лагеря. Перед тем как их сжечь их надо зачистить. Причем все это будет проходить по одному сценарию. Который повторялся уже 30 раз до этого. Если вы, конечно, внимательно играете. К сожалению метакритик имеет ограничения и не дает больше расписать про игру.… Expand

    It's a great game with fantastic graphics, that said it gets a bit repetitive and there's not much to find through exploring other than cosmetics, if it had a little more weight in its RPG mechanics and more rewarding exploration it would have been a 10.

Ghost of Tsushima is the best of this genre I have played in the last 15 years. I hate games that hold your hand and have 200 icons on the screen, this game uses the wind to tell you where to go, a simple yet clever mechanic. The combat is not hard and not easy it is balanced perfectly while being fun.

    I am only into the 2nd act of 3, and I am not bored. The story is good, the side quests are better than the norm and the environment is very detailed and doesn't feel like it has been copy pasted. I believe there are over 40 biomes, and the way they blend/transition into one another is very well done. The game also lets you play how you want to, you can be sneaky or full on kamikaze mode.

    If you have been bored with Assassins Creed games, but like open world style, give this a go.    … Expand

    This is the pinnacle of open world design. Armor, vanity items, music, haiku, and even the fox den are incredible. Better story than most. Better combat than most. Good enough sleath. So many choices. I hope Ubi, and Guerilla look at this games and study everything that work which was basically everything.

    -Initially fun gameplay: The game is very fun to play for the first third of the game
    -Innovative guidance for missions: Using the wind to guide the player, birds to follow, and foxes to follow to shrines is truly innovative Cons
    -Weak story: The main plot could have been great, but ultimately doesn't leave a lasting impression.Had this been a 25 to 30 hour game, the story may have had more impact -Repetitive gameplay at the 25 hour mark: While fun at first, the gameplay gets old about halfway through the game and you will find yourself avoiding enemies when possible
    -Weak side missions: Any side mission not involving a main side character is truly forgettable -Length of the game: Hate to hammer this home, but this game would be better served if it were shorter
    -Very Dumb AI, even on hardest difficulty: Enemies will stare at the wall, get stuck on things, shoot each other, and are easy to defeat. Even the generals don't pose much of a challenge.

    Do not let all of the reviews mentioning how much better the game is than TLOU2 impact you as the game will not live up to the hype if you do (this is what happened to me). If you expect a good but not great game, then you will be satisfied with Ghost of Tsushima.    … Expand

    So what about GoT? It's a really great game in first act and part of 2nd, but then it rams into a typical open world game "wall" - the point where it gets really repetitive and boring. You're just clearing those places on a map like bamboo cuts, duels, haikus and other collectible **** So by the 3rd act you're really bored with it + snowy setting ain't helping with adding even minimal variety. You're just running from one mongol camp to another (there's even chain of side quests involving this - to give you some motivation lol). Sooo..

The plot is very interesting as you meet different characters who are being affected by the war between the Japanese and the Mongols. If we were just basing the game on those two factors, this would be a 10. However there is a huge problem underneath its beautiful façade.

    The biggest problem with this game is its camera system and its combat system. Trust me when I say that you cannot sneak through this game forever, you will eventually have to fight a group of enemies and that turns to a huge pain when you are playing at Normal or above difficulty.

    The camera is a big hinderance when you are surrounded by large group of enemies, when you dodge the camera will not auto focus and you will often lose track of enemies, so you have to readjust often and you cannot auto lock onto an enemy. if only Sucker Punch would have implemented something like Batman Arkham City, where you can lock on to one enemy and then move onto the next one after you defeated the previous enemy, then I would not have any gripe about this game.

    Occasionally I will also notice that items and location will glitch out as well, but that's to be expected for a huge open world game. Games like The Witcher 3 and GTA V have their glitches as well. Overall, a beautiful game with quite a few things to do with a good plot, however its combat and camera leave a lot to desire.    … Expand

Visual presentation is phenomenal for an open world game, with richly detailed environments peppered with things to do and enemies to fight. Not too much, but not tool little. The world feels lived in and realistic, driven by outstanding visuals, excellent performances, tight polished combat and a focused, well written story.

    Combat mechanics and encounters are literal perfection allowing the player to alternate between Assassins Creed style stealth or open combat initiated in a "Samurai standoff". 4 separate, easy to switch between stances for each enemy type can be earned and in combination with dodge and parry mechanics allow the player to effortlessly engage anything (and any number of enemies) the game throws at you.

    Upgrades are integrated into the world via hot springs, bamboo "strikes" and several others lending to the immersion and are intuitive and easy to understand. The map is regularly updated with waypoints and points of interest (ie, the game respects your time)

    Armor sets, sword sets, dyes, upgrade trees for weapons, armor and all skills round out one of the most feature complete and polished games ever made. Modern and polished, fast paced and tight, rewarding combat. You will absolutely immerse into the world and feel like an unstoppable samurai by the end of the game.

The whole affair is seriously lacking in charm and personality. Everything is lifted from previous successful AAA games, the detective sections from Witcher 3, the enemy camps from Assassin’s Creed, the climbing sections from Uncharted, etc... and none of these feel like a design decision that really fits the game, rather the logical conclusion of a faceless think tank. The game is polished and looks great, but in a very homogenous, uncanny valley way. Just like the Infamous series, Sucker Punch delivers a game that looked promising but is ultimately frustrating and uninspired. And that is without going into the cultural appropriation of a Western team making a game that is about Japanese as The Last Samurai.… Expand

Upgradesystem is very free to choose what you want to play like.

    Control is flawless. Then you die it is because of you. Thus things does not feel unfair, and I love that. Negatives? Well, few things. Like forces long stealthmissions. Don't like those. Otherwise the game have alot of variation and stuff to do. And that is great. Best game from the studio so far!    … Expand

    -Great Swordplay really holds everything together. The combat is fun throughout.

    -Nice tech tree branch will useful new powers to unlock. Really does a good job of making you feel like you are becoming a bigger samurai baddass as you move through the game.

    -Some fun side activities like Haikus and Bamboo slicing. These are fun but fleeting.
    -Story is solid.

    -Boss duels are great with an epic standoff before each bout.

    -Decent immersion for exploration with the guiding wind, but it gets old eventually. Nice touch though.

    -Can also forget stealth and call out enemies for a standoff, which is pretty cool. I like how the game gives me the choice with how to deal with a particular situation. Go stealthy or march right up to the gate and call out the fiercest warrior of the group for a one on one showdown. Very epic.

    -Exploration is also fairly solid. The game does not hold your hand as much as other open world games and there are some nice environments to discover.

    And although there many little great details that add to overall enjoyment of this game, like lots of outfit customizing, in the end the game suffers from much of the same faults that the open world rpg genre is known for.

    -Not enough variety in missions and side missions are basically all the same variation of one mission.
    -
    Tailing missions are here. Tail an enemy to a location without being seen. Boring and dumb. Overall the structure of the missions are very similar to Ubisoft open world titles with some small exceptions. Ie., go to location and free outpost, save hostages, etc, etc,. Unique missions are quite low in number.

    -Enemies are very low on variety and it's gets to the point were you are just bored. You will see guys with swords, Swords and Shields, bows, and spear type weapons. Eventually bomb throwers appear too but they are basically archers. For each type, there is also a Brute variant, which is basically a big version of the aforementioned types. And that's it. It gets old fighting these same old guys non stop.

    -Craftable loot has made into this game as well. Gather up tons of stuff to upgrade gear. It's tedious now and forever. Also, tons of collectibles lying around that are absolutely pointless like in any other open world game.

    -Platforming is very basic and gimicky. Nothing new here.

    -Stealth is very by the numbers. If you've played AC series you know what to expect. Hid in tall grass or on a rooftop and then stab guys in the back. Unlock more powers like stab two people at once, LOL. Then unlock option to stab THREE people in the back. More LOLs. The one cool thing is you can stab guys through bamboo doors. It never gets old. But the rest is just blah. AI is dumb as a rock. It's more fun to approach openly and duel and skip the stealth part.

    -Oh yeah, there are forced stealth sections, LOL.

    There are a few other minuses but honestly, the immersion, story, and swordplay really make the game shine, and it's polished. I have not seen any bugs. Not one so far. It's very solid Samurai epic with a lot of style, so I can definitely recommend a buy here. I just really wish one these companies would figure out a way to overhaul the mission structure in these open world games. The genre really needs to move forward. Zelda:BOTW and RDR2 did it better, but this is still a very solid game.    … Expand

    Side quests are really good and meaningful, most of them involving going deeper into the storyline of the prominent NPCs you will meet along in your journey.

    Gameplay is pretty good. Swordplay looks (and SOUNDS) really great. Playing on Hard difficulty is a decent challenge, especially early on before you get a few important skills and equipment upgrades. Controls are responsive but took some getting used to because the muscle memory I had from other games doesn't work here (trying to sneak in a perfect parry in the middle of an enemy combo usually ends in pain, whereas in a game like Sekiro you can weave parries almost any time).

    My only real big gameplay complaint is that the camera is often pretty bad, where it will move in locations where you can't see your character or be in such a close proximity where you will get hit by enemies off screen.

    I really hope we see more like this from Sucker Punch in the future!    … Expand

The 9.2 score among almost 18000 reviews from User score reflects perfectly how players feel about this game. GoT is fantastic, an amazing achievement from start to finish. It's one of the best games I have ever played and is only the 4th game I have ever platinumed in my life (2 others are also Sucker Punch games, shows you how much I appreciate this company). The critic focuses on the fact that this game is another sandbox game that is being tossed out to us every few months, etc... But this is not true. Sucker Punch has perfected the formulae and not one moment in my 100 hrs playthrough have I ever felt bored or wanted to stop. I always had this urge of wanting to know what's coming next.
    The combat is excellent and the more you play the more you will perfect your moves and technics. You have a large arsenal of Ghost weapons at your disposal and I felt the need of using them all during my encounters with the Mongols. They are all useful and needed in different situations. The stealth sections are very well implemented and fun, not tedious at all, and the different equipment you find throughout your journey (mainly armors) are needed for different playstyle. You'll have to use them all. The Skill tree is varied and assigning the right point to the right skill will make a lot of difference.

    The world, Oh man the world. What a wonderful island Tsushima is. The Graphics on the PS4 which is a 7 years old hardware are the best you'll ever find on last gen console. It is unbelievable that the PS4 can still achieve this level of details in 2020. You'll have to see it to believe it, provided you play on a 4k UHD TV, and on the PS4 Pro (my settings).

    The Story:
    The story is great and engrossing from start to finish. It tells the tale of a young Samurai who has to struggle when his island is being invaded by ruthless Mongols (I think in the 11th or 12th century) and their merciless leader Khotun Khan. Naturally, the story has a lot of twists and heart breaking moments that I won't spoil. However, it is very well written, well acted and captivating until the end. There are a lot of side missions that aim to show you the torment of the people of Tsushima during the invasion and they are all interesting. The game has hundreds of collectibles in the form of Fox Den to be found, Banners scattered around the world to collect, lighthouses to be lit, and dozens more. All of them reward you with different equipment/perks/skills etc.. They are interesting and equally important to find.

    The loading time is the fastest you'll ever find on a game of this scale on the PS4. In a matter of seconds you load from the start screen to the game. And during the game it is even faster to reload if you die or want to fast-travel. it feels like a next gen game. I don't know how Sucker Punch were able to achieve that. But this is also an indication of how much the game is polished and runs well. Bugs are almost inexistent and the game had never crashed once during my playthrough.

    tl;dr
    I highly recommend GoT. It is a highly polished, well written, well made game with fantastic graphics and an amazing world to explore. If you like open world games where you will sink dozens of hours of your life, do not hesitate and buy GoT.    … Expand

    It looks beautiful, the combat is solid and varied with different stances for the different enemy types, the world has plenty to see and to do when you get exploring without being overly large like AC Odyssey. Speaking of AC that’s what GoT will often get compared to and for good reason from a gameplay perspective with the stealth and movement feeling familiar (which makes the “the stealth is the worst” reviews nonsensical as there’s not a lot of difference aside from a variety of new skills). Whilst it does retread ground in that regard it isn’t really a clone of AC more just “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” with them building on things like combat which plays as one might expect in a samurai game and is executed better than the loose combat controls of recent AC games.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the story, interesting characters with their own personalities and goals with good performances from the scanned cast who lend their faces and voices to the roles. I think most people knew what to expect from the story and it delivers on that front. Unfortunately we do have TLOU 2 fans leaving negative reviews who are just bitter that their game dropped the story ball compared to the first, pay those reviews no attention as they probably didn’t even play it. The critics and fans score this game highly which suggests it’s more a negative reaction of spite than a sincere opinion. Ghost is what it is, it isn’t “defining new boundaries of storytelling” (which TLOU2 really isn’t, if anything in 2020’s social climate it’s very expected and predictable) Ghost takes a narrative of old, a tried and tested formula and still manages to deliver an enjoyable experience.

    It’s an easy ten for me, definitely one of the games I’ve enjoyed the most this year and will be one I keep going back to with runs on higher difficulty and using the Kurosawa mode which locks in the Japanese dialogue and olde film screen effects. Look forward to seeing what Sucker Punch have for us on the next gen.    … Expand

    This is essentially what Ghost of Tsushima is minus the templars, here instead you have the moungols
    That being said, these are the types of games im the hardest on as theyre my most favorite.
    Here you play as jin, a samuri that sets ojt to stop the mongols, but your entire journey is an internal struggle of honor the samari way, or in the shadows the ezio way… ghost of tsushi,a does not mask that it sets out to marry the wither 3 and the desmond saga of assassins creed, and this is what it does… the open world here is absolutely stunning, its beautiful, second only to the witcher 3.. however while great to look at, it doesn’t ever really feel alive, its not enticing or full of intrigue, its just something really pretty to look at while youre riding from mission to mission, however there is some incentive to explore as this is a map cleaner, not an overwhelming map cleaner like recent ac games have become, but just the right balance of do I wanna ignore the store and find some collecabtles or do some side missions to level up my character or gear? Which brings me to the skill tree and progression in this game.. its alright… I feel a skill tree should make the game youre playing more enjoyable, and ghosts of tsushimas does to an extent, but again not anything drastic here, I eenjoyed initially hunting won materials, caliming mongol territories as my own so that I would upgrade my sword and armour, but after I got to a point wher I felt comfortable existing in this would, there was not much I cared to save up for which in turn lead me to ignoring the side activities and going right through this 18 hour long story after I got bored of its world… really showing why exactly ubisoft has stayed away from this setting.. theres not much you can do in a forest setting outside of the fantasy genre… when it comes to stealth and combat, this is an aspect where ghost of tsushima feels a bit dated and janky, neither of the two options are any fun, I find shield clashing in combat to be highly unsatisfying, and this is how ghost of tsushima feels from start to finish, I like that batman arkham feel when youre just beating up a bunch of grunts, I hate hwoever when the riot shield guys come in to break up my flow… this is literally every eveny in ghost of tsushima, the spam hold the block button like your little sister playing a fighting game with you, I get that this game has different stances to deal with each weapon type, but still.. its annoying and made me dread combat… I would use the stand off option every chance I got so id have the opportunity to take out as many enemies out before battle starts as possible just to not deal with them… this is not a good sign in a game so combat focused and heavy… and onto the mission structure and story.. its boring, no memorable missions, tons of missions that have that good ole, don’t get detected or you automatically fail stipulation of assassins creed fame, and its again just annoying.. you don’t really feel you have the tools necessary at your disposal to make stealth missions like this enjoyable like they can be in an assassins creed game.. and constant return to the story area countdowns really making me feel like im in the animus.. that being said, ghost of tsushima is a great game… hard to believe with all of the ranting I just did, but I loved it… it took a good 10 hours until I was bored of its open world, and again this world Is gorgeous, it’s a great experience alone just to be able to live in this world, to chase down its legendary moves, obviously certain missions are necessary to unlocking different abilities, but ghost of tsushima would almost be a better game without a campaign, just a world to go explore and breathe in.
    And you have no idea how happy I am that we no longer have to hear assassins creed fans cry about feaudal japan .

И уж точно лучше чем "Одни из нас 2", в которой влито конечно же тонны денег, но сюжетно все очень плохо из-за провала Нила Дракмана как сценариста и гейм-директора в первую очередь. Призрак Цусимы, несмотря на то что бюджет был не самым большим, получился при этом гораздо лучше. И видно что разработчики вложили в игру душу и потратили каждый цент. Самое главное что Призрак Цусимы вызывает большой эмоциональный отклик у игрока. Сюжет простой, но при этом он выстроен очень лаконично и игрок эмоционально проникается к героям и событиям. Получилась очень красивая, драматичная и чувственная история.
    Игру нельзя назвать идеальной. Да, где-то может хромать техническая составляющая (в первую очередь лицевая анимация в кат. сценах), но при этом нам дарят просто невероятные по своей красоте виды древних земель Японии. Откровений в геймплее и исследовании тоже нет, но все сделано так как должно быть и все эти элементы работают правильно и в нужных местах. Призрак Цусимы, по моему мнению отсылает нас к старой школе, когда выходили самые знаковые игры которые были не без изъянов. Однако они были настолько хорошо сделаны, настолько имели свое уникальное лицо и шарм, что игроки легко списывали некоторые недоточеты и просто наслаждались добротной игрой. Призрак Цусимы это одно из самых впечатляющих и самых красивых приключений с пронзительной историей в этом году.

But is the game a masterpiece? No, but it's way better and more organic than Sekiro Shadows Die Twice in terms of 60+ hours of content and a good decent story that will lock you in. Ghost of Tsushima will delight everyone in terms of graphical fidelity and hours of content to enjoy and there's no doubt that SP delivered something truly reminiscent and vivid from what Sly Cooper had when it first came out.… Expand

    It's been a long since I've played a game for hours on end. And it has been years since I've played a game in which when I'm not playing the game, I'm thinking about playing the game. That's what Ghosts of Tsushima is: a game that penetrated my jaded heart and reinvigorated my enjoyment of the hobby.

That's what Ghosts of Tsushima is: a game that penetrated my jaded heart and reinvigorated my enjoyment of the hobby.

    Now to be clear, there is nothing groundbreaking here. Structurally, it's an entry in well-worn "Assassin's Creed" open-world style games. But the execution is excellent and even people who've burned out on it can enjoy it. The load times are short, so you are back in action quickly after fast-travelling, dying or failing a mission. This keeps great pacing. On hard difficulty you get combat that is challenging, engaging, and fun. I found myself seeking out combat rather than avoiding it like in Sekiro. Speaking of which, Sekiro unfortunately always felt like a Dark Souls game with a Japanese skin. Ghosts by contrast does an excellent job of evoking classic samurai stories and film.

    Frankly, Ghosts restored my hope in the Playstation console. I didn't buy Last of Us 2 because I knew what it was: a game made to spite, humiliate, and demoralize normal, well-adjusted people. The oozing contempt Naughty Dog displayed for gamers had me actually considering jumping to the Xbox for the upcoming generation. Ghost of Tsushima shows that excellent games can still be made and be succesful if you just ignore the social-media weirdos.    … Expand

    The game is really great. It looks to me that SP were inspired by RDR2 and Uncharted 4 by some scenes, animations, camera angles. I still like it a lot for the focus on the story more than on the hours to spend in the game. They also did their homework by getting all the details on samurai culture, fight techniques, mongol weapons and so on.

    This is without a doubt the most beautiful game ever made, the HDR pops magnificently on my oled tv. Between moments of chaos during exhilarating battles and the satisfaction of upgrading and customizing weapon and armour (nothing cut out and locked behind a microtransaction paywall) are moments of complete serenity.

    The combat is incredibly fun,addicting and empowering. The game has held my attention all day every day since i bought it far exceeding by expectations. The developer suckerpunch has gone above and beyond when creating this and it shows in every inch of this game.

    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.
