    Ghosts of Tsushima is the best assassins creed game, no contest.

If you wanna go frontal assault or sneak around stabbing mongols, tou can do it. Frontal assault is viable if you’re good with melee combat. Further, the stances add a lot of variety to the game, having you change depending on the enemy type you’re facing. The weapons and customization options are massive! You get your money’s worth in he game. For the first time in a decade plus, I am going to do every side quest and get the platinum trophy. While missions can get repetitive, the world combat and story make me want to play all of it. This is the best open world assassins creed game ever, no contest. My favorite part about this game is the story and setting. This is a beautiful game, dealing with complex issues like war crimes, honor, and politics. The characters are very believable, with Sensek ishimawa having the most interesting story arc. This is a game we needed in 2020. Well done Sucker punch.… Expand

I honestly can not think of a single person grievance I had with the game. the game is challenging on medium and hard, story is well paced, voice acting is top notch, the animations are crisp and beautiful, I am currently on my second play through with only one bug, I got launched 50 feet in one direction when an enemy hit me and I clip on a wall, I was unable to replicate the bug so I guess it was one in a million. This is an amazing game (IN MY OPINION) that I would recommend to any one who appreciates quality games.… Expand

    No puedo ponerle un diez a este juego Aunque me parezca maravilloso. Para empezar, mi primera razón, es sin duda la cámara durante el combate. Esta se desplaza sin estar anclada detrás del l personaje, lo que hace que pierdas el objetivo en los diversos quiebros que realizas. Muchos de tus ataques irán al aire o en dirección contraria de donde querrías que fueran.

Muchos de tus ataques irán al aire o en dirección contraria de donde querrías que fueran.
    Otro problema, y este va unido al anterior, es la selección de objetivo. En muchas ocasiones cuando te atacan varios enemigos a la vez , te ves obligado a salir corriendo, en primera instancia, para poder encarar a un objetivo, ya que el sistema de auto Target, no es capaz de realizar su trabajo. Esto unido a la cámara, es un adversario mas a batir en los combates. ya que conseguirán dejarte acorralado en muchísimas ocasiones, provocando que mueras injustamente.
    La verticalidad del personaje esta toscamente implementada, siendo buena la escalada a los tejados, pero tosco el descenso. Teniendo que dar saltos exagerados para bajar un simple escalón o descender de un tejado, cuando vas en modo sigilo.
    El ciclo día noche me parece una autentica locura, Siendo el crepúsculo, la tónica de este. Se echa en falta una duración mas real del ciclo. Y los cambios pueden llegar a ser demasiado bruscos, afeando un poco su belleza
    Estas son mis razones para no ponerle un nueve como un sol de grande.
    Al juego le faltan algunas horillas de puesta a punto y testeo. Nada que no se pueda resolver con un buen parche.

    Going to be honest from start: i only have a few hours in it, so some opinions are liable to change in time, but:

    Voice acting is by far my favorite part of the game. It feels like they used actual japanese people speaking english, and I love it. Each phrase, each word, feels like it was used with the needed power in it.
    The story seems interesting so far, in it's old fashioned samurai way. Must play much more before I can give a proper story opinion. A bit repetitive, but enjoyable

    A beautiful looking game, that could have been a 10 for me. For that, it needed a story that was just a little bit stronger. And the pacing of the game could have been somewhat better, as at times it can feel repetitive and like it drags a bit. I hope they make some kind of sequel to it.

    It's a great new game from Sucker Punch. It's not perfect from technical side (some collision bugs, some kind of npc lags or AI weak sides), but this game still shows us, how great can be game, if you will add different specific and aesthetic details. They're everywhere - from wind that points on the quest target to sword hiding animation.

Средневековая война здесь довольно прилизанная, да и сам герой очень карикатурный, что начинает надоедать ближе к концу.

    Да, игра не идеальна, все механики ассасиновские, но это пример того как по разному можно сделать две игры с одинаковыми механиками (возможно даже и на одном движке). Эта в отличии от ассасинов в разы атмосферней и в нее хочется возвращаться. Но 5 тысяч она не стоит.Да, игра не идеальна, все механики ассасиновские, но это пример того как по разному можно сделать две игры с одинаковыми механиками (возможно даже и на одном движке).

    After I finished Ghost of Tsushima I was left very conflicted .

On the one hand you have a by the numbers open world game that straight up copies and pastes with no exaggeration every single open world game mechanic popularized by Ubisoft that you have played about a million times before and on the other hand you have a game with so much attention to detail , really enjoyable combat , a solid story and zero bad business practices

    To put it simply this is like I mentioned before yet another open world game . Prepare to travel endless amount of barren land with your horse to go from point A to point B which will inevitably butcher your controller , Find collectibles and challenges that litter the map , clear numerous identical bases to liberate Tsushima , earn skills points to spend them on your skill tree etc. Thankfully there aren't any climb tower to reveal the map challenges . Exclusive to Ghost of Tsushima are the bamboo strikes which are fun to do if not a bit annoying to find , the countless Fox Den's that litter the map and are extremely repetitive , the Haiku's where you make poems which ...OK I guess and last but not least the Hot Springs which give you a bit of health . The good thing about all these generic activities is that they are optional and I barely did any of them ...And that's perhaps the biggest plus of Ghost of Tsushima compared to your typical Ubisoft game

    Unlike for example Assassin's Creed Odyssey Ghost of Tsushima is not build with XP packs and microtransactions in mind thus there are no spongy enemies nor level based enemies/quests . If you are skillful and you do the bare minimum of side quests that have consistently good quality you will be more than ready to face everything the game throws at you . I can't stress how delighted I was with this feature . In addition because of the lack of sponge enemies with endless health the combat is incredibly enjoyable as it's based more around good parrying and dodging rather than using overpowered weapons or cheesing the game . In a lot of ways this game from a gameplay perspective reminds me of Assassin's Creed Unity because they share many of the same ideas . Incredibly similar combat , similar progression , identical stealth dodgy AI and all , cool gadgets and armor that gives you different perks depending on how you play . The only big difference would be the fact that Ghost of Tsushima has boss fights that are absolutely awesome and really challenging

    As far as the story and character are concerned they are solid . Nothing spectacular thanks to some poor pacing large in part due to it's open world format but it manages to be memorable nonetheless thanks to some incredible set pieces and of course it's really interesting setting . Historical accuracy isn't something I can comment on but I wouldn't be surprised if some things were toned down to match today's sensibilities ..

    Ghost of Tsushima is the best Ubisoft like game you will find on the market . It's a game made with a lot of passion and it shows unlike the microtransaction filled woke garbage the latter **** out in the market every year . That being said if you are tired of the Ubisoft format the game will undoubtedly tire you at times ....    … Expand

    Ghost of Tsushima is definitely an excellent game with an amazing openworld experience, a nice and fluid gameplay that will make want to play it every day, rememberable characters and a good story. Of course the game has it's flaws and bugs (that at least with me, were not many) but the gane is still a masterpiece.

    Any reviewer that rated this game lower than 80/90 must not be a fan of the genre. At least that is my guess? Besides a few very small technical glitches I don't see how one could not not rate this an 80 at the very lowest.

    The only small negative issue that I have found after playing for about 25hrs is that sometimes in battle the camera ends up behind something that dosent turn invisible like in some other games so you can't see what you're doing, but one quick evasion move solves that & the designers may have chose to make it that way for whatever reason...so I'm not sure that wasn't intended?

    I can't recommend this game enough. If you're a fan of the genre & like samurai/Japanese culture, this game is about as perfect as I could imagine a game being 10/10    … Expand

    An incredible experience can be found in Ghost of Tsushima, that is, if you are willing to disregard its repetitive nature and empty open world. Overall, the game is a fun experience from start to finish that never gets too stale.

    I've platinumed the game and can say with confidence it's one of the best open world games I've experienced. The story is surprisingly emotional, the combat is amazing, and the side content didn't feel so repetitive for me (maybe a little). Incredibly satisfying to liberate the entire island...and a great ending for the PS4's generation.

    TLDR: Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most beautiful visually and enjoyable gameplay-wise open world games that I played in my life. Read firuther for the details.

    Now, I will say right away that for me "10/10" is not a "perfect" game. For me, it means a game that pushes the boundaries of the genre, basically read it as "as good as it gets" score. The reason is - I haven't once in my    TLDR: Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most beautiful visually and enjoyable gameplay-wise open world games that I played in my life. Read firuther for the details.

    Now, I will say right away that for me "10/10" is not a "perfect" game. For me, it means a game that pushes the boundaries of the genre, basically read it as "as good as it gets" score. The reason is - I haven't once in my life played a game that could be called Perfect, and I don't expect to, but that's not a reason to never give a game a 10.

    First, let's adress the least controvercial thing: the graphics. GOT is the most visually stunning game that I EVER saw with my own two eyes. Being a software engineer that works with graphics, I am blown away by how they could achieve that on a PS4 hardware. I have no idea if it's technically the best, but VISUALLY, in terms of art direction and how the engine realizes that - it's THE most beautiful games that I've played EVER. It's a masterpiece.
    I will share one fact to just demonstrate how good it is. This is the first game that I'm actually making screenshots for several times a day. I never felt the need in any game before. Here, these screenshots look like works of art, and you see beautiful scenery on every corner IN GAME.

    Now, onto gameplay. It's good.
    It's a bog-standard open world game, with camps to conquer, collectables to find and climbing puzzles (shrines) to clear. It's nothing special, but don't get me wrong - while it doesn't make any innovation - it is incredibly well-made. It is really enjoyable and not frustrating at all to chase the side activities.
    The combat system makes it all the better. This is again a first for me - I actually find myself stopping for every randomly-spawned bandits on the road to kill them, because I enjoy the combat so much. I will note here, however, that the game is extremely easy, especially if you use ghost tools in combat. It's outright TOO easy. For me, that's not a huge deal, but I could see it being a problem for others. Personally, I simply enjoy it for what it is, but I wish there was a higher difficulty settings and that ghost tools were useful, but not so overpowered.

    Onto the story.
    I read several reviews that criticized the story for several things. One review mentioned that all the characters are very serious and there's no comic reliefs save for one. They feel like the same character, the review said. The other review mentioned that the story is nothing special.
    And it's all very close to truth. But I don't think that it's a detriment here - but that it's actually good.
    The story is your standard "I will destroy enemy forces that invaded my home". It doesn't give you any WOW-moments, and it's not a narration that you will remember for it's engaging plot twists and amazing plot devices. But it is a very solid "serious" story that gives you the goal without any moralizing or cringe moments. I find so often in games that in order to entertain the player they start to make silly jokes and make you do silly things that are fun but unrealistic. Assassin's Creed, for instance, has A TON of cringe moments where you feel like it's made for under-10 kids. In addition, games like virtue-signalling nowadays, and start including "gender equality" or stuff like that, as well as tons of morals about value of friendship and being nice to each other...
    None of that here. You're a samurai, you care for your people. There are mongols that are Bad. Go kill. End of story.
    And really, it's a breath of fresh air. It doesn't need anything more, because the core gameplay is so enjoyable that the story doesn't need to do anything but just give you a direction to go to.

    Onto the Characters. I thought they're good too.
    Again, they're criticized for being too serious. But that's a good thing, because they fit the world extremely well. I don't think they are the same at all, but they ARE indeed all no-nonsence (except one). It makes total sense in a state of war, and it serves to keep the tone of the world consistent.
    Nowadays in games, studios often make each next character very distinct, giving them over-the-top traits, personalities, and carricature appearances. There's nothing wrong with that, but I feel that there's merit in having a realistic story with real-looking people too.

    Finally, I'll address the tone. The world of Tsushima is rather dark, and it doesn't shy away from realities of war. People are tortured, women are kidnapped, peasants are starving, and the roads are littered with corpses lynched by mongols or murdered by bandits. But all of this drama is a backdrop. The hero and the player remain separated from that, and it doesn't make the game feel depressive. Quite on the contrary - everywhere Jin goes, he gets to make everything a bit better for the people, and it feels nice.

    In conclusion, this is a definite MUST-BUY game on PS4.
    For me, this is a GOTY so far. We'll see how Cyberpunk goes.    … Expand

There are very few that hit the mark for me, but this is certainly one of them.

    Let's get the nitpicky negatives out of the way. The game could really use an FoV slider. The camera is generally far too pulled in for my taste. The camera also has a tendency to get in the way during prolonged or close-quarters combat because the game doesn't apply any transparency to objects very close to it. Again on the camera, it would also be nice to get rid of the acceleration effect, although it's fairly minor. An option for lock-on would also be appreciated, since in large encounters, it feels like I'm spending most of my time trying to re-adjust the camera so I can see after every dodge or parry, which is to say every 2-3 seconds.

    Also the game tries to wrench control from you occasionally in combat. There were moments when I was pushing toward a certain enemy to attack them, and as soon as I hit an attack button, Jin would swerve wildly to the side to attack a different enemy. A huge no-no in any action game imo, and far too common in recent generations. This is with aim assist OFF.

    My only other real gripe is that the lip-sync goes completely out the window when you switch the voice acting to Japanese, making it a little jarring during cutscenes.

    Now onto the good. There's a lot, so I'll just bullet point it.

    -The visual style and presentation are absolutely gorgeous
    -The story is gripping, tense and well-written
    -The game's atmosphere is top-notch, from somber lonely moments to epic cinematic highs
    -The sound design is impeccable, with sounds being a massive aid in combat for anyone with a good setup/headphones
    -The soundtrack is beautiful and ranges from haunting, subdued tracks to blood-pumping themes that perfectly fit the mood of war and combat
    -The voice acting is very solid, even in English. No bottom-barrel funimation ****
    -The combat is fluid, intuitive and rewarding.
    -Almost all the upgrades you can choose feel substantive and have real effects on gameplay.
    -Exploration is fun and rewarding, both because there are many things to find and do, and because the world is so incredible to look at.
    -Nearly every encounter can be tackled in a great variety of ways, making every build and upgrade path feel 100% viable.
    -Skill is rewarded, and a skilled player with relatively few upgrades can manage encounters that will bury a lesser player with a far more upgraded character.
    -Animations are fluid and for the most part blend into one another very well, with only minor exceptions.
    -Overall, it feels much more immersive, enjoyable and unique than the vast, vast majority of open-world AAA drivel on the market.

    Also, bonus points for:

    -NO identity politics.
    -NO **** ironic millennial humor.

    There are far more positives, but I think this pretty well sums up the game well enough. Play it. Play this game.    … Expand

    The only downside for me is that some of the side missions feel a little slow and generic and that there is no lock on system in combat. Considering SuckerPunch is adding multiplayer and various other tweaks inspired by fan feedback I wouldn't be surprised if they add a lock on system at some point though.

    P.s. This game received its seal of approval from actual Japanese fans and even historians, so don't pay heed to the white knight western critics who think they know everything and that they're the beacon of hope and light for the downtrodden minorities who clearly can't stand up for themselves or formulate their own thoughts regarding this game.

    Well, after the disaster that was The last of us 2, It is really good that we can play something that worth the money you spend on it.

    Thank you SuckerPunch, to start this review i have to say that i did unlock the Platinum in this game so you know i played it to completion. This game was absolutely amazing, the gameplay is perfect, the swordplay is incredible and the game itself is in my opinion, the most beautiful game that i have played, the colors in some areas are just insane, you could literally just walk around (iThank you SuckerPunch, to start this review i have to say that i did unlock the Platinum in this game so you know i played it to completion. This game was absolutely amazing, the gameplay is perfect, the swordplay is incredible and the game itself is in my opinion, the most beautiful game that i have played, the colors in some areas are just insane, you could literally just walk around (i did) looking at the incredible sights, the falling leaves, the huge terrains with flowers, the shinto shrines, everything is so beautiful and perfect, but at the same time can be dark and depressing depending on the mission which is good.
    The story is very good too, i enjoyed it a lot, it really does make you feel like a samurai and also as the ghost, the story can play with your feelings as you progress it and transform, you can feel the character and his struggle which is just amazing, very very good story. (please release some DLC or a sequel, a sequel would be amazing)
    The music is just incredible, its not boring or playing 24/7 which in this game, is good, being able to explore the island of tsushima while listening to nature sounds is a joy, however that doesn't mean that the times where music does play are bad, its absolutely fantastic, the duels are some of my favorite part of the game, and the music that plays whenever you go face to face against an opponent its just perfect.
    I played the game with the japanese voice track, in my opinion, its really good, it is a shame that the lip sync is only for the english voice track, however for me, it wasn't distracting or bad that i wasn't synced with the japanese voices, what i did find kind of annoying but very minor in reality is the subtitles, i do know a little bit of japanese and knew what they where saying, sometimes the subtitles are off, to give you an example: a character may say: “ ありがとうございます” “arigatou gozaimasu” which would mean thank you in a formal way, sometimes the subtitles were correct with this but sometimes it was completely off, sometimes the subs said “Thank you very much” which could be correct or “Thank you, Lord Sakai” which is off, as its adding words, sometimes the subs would even say something like “My life is saved because of you” which would be incorrect but im assuming that the subs are just ported from the english voice track so it causes errors on the translation, again this is not really a big deal, but it can get annoying sometimes, very minor.
    Other than that, i didn't experience any issues or bugs while playing, which was fantastic.
    I give it a 10/10, amazing, again, thank you sucker punch and sony for making this game possible, please keep making games like this one!.    … Expand

    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.
