    Great side quests that keep giving and giving, My favorite was Tomoe's storyline betraying her Sensei. Lady Masako's storyline was excellent as well. The visual were absolutely incredible for a open world game. The combat is very good as well. I'm collecting items to finish this 100% for my Platinum trophy,. Thank you Sucker Punch for this amazing experience, this was well worth the wait.

    The graphics of the game are beautiful and breathtaking at times. The gameplay is good though it can get a little repetitive at times especially since you use the same sword the whole game. The story is good, it's not groundbreaking to me and the pacing gets really slow at time.

    Overall - 8.5/10

    +Good graphics, way too much particles though
    +Good story
    +Epik voice acting
    +Best title opening sequence

    •Decent combat

    -Camera not centered properly
    -boring side missions except the mythic tales
    -never cared about bow or stealth

    Overall a good open world game which didnt take any risk to try something new.

    Overall, fantastic story that holds some heavy moments that drive the emotions hard. The voice acting is exceptionally executed, coupled with some of the best written characters ever. However, due to the open world format, the pace does suffer a bit, but not enough to detract away from the adventure.

    The visuals and sound are fantastic, the whole island of Tsushima is stunning and a joy to explore. Even the grind that has been introduced is a lot of fun, but again, suffers from the open world format. It does feel like a bit of a chore to run around and collect items, unlock areas, take down outposts etc. The in game activities do fit nicely with the overall theme, but is a bit immersion breaking when some are obviously 'filler'. With that all in mind, the game excels in the combat department. Don't get me wrong, it's more of the 'counter/attacker' game-play we are used to, but feels satisfying with the multiple stances that can be implemented for strategic value.

    You would be forgiven for saying this is 'Assassin's Creed Japan', however the story and visuals really do make this one stand out. Ghost of Tsushima does everything it is trying to do very well. It would have been nice to see some more realism or a little more innovation rather than sticking with the same open world gaming we are used to.    … Expand

My only complaint is that they have done so much for the game but the lips sync system for Japanese is quite bad.

I am usually the type of person who buys a game, plays it for an hour then never plays it again. This game brought me out of that rut. It has put an end to the recent bland open world games that have been released. Unfortunately I never got around to enjoying Horizon Zero Dawn or other games much because they felt like they were missing something. Ghosts of Tsushima does not feel like it is lacking anything, and it has me absolutely hooked. If you buy one game in your life, please either buy this or Titanfall 2 for the story.

    Ghost of Tsushima is an incredible game. The environment of the game world is absolutely stunning, it amazes me with the level of visuals they can squeeze out of the now dated hardware. The combat is extremely satisfying and the animations are really top notch. It makes every strike of the sword feel weighted and purposeful.

The combat is extremely satisfying and the animations are really top notch. It makes every strike of the sword feel weighted and purposeful. It rewards those who like to explore with items that can be found to further customize Jins armor, the look as well as amazing vistas and scenery. The fact you can play the majority of this game without a HUD just further immerses you into the game world.

    But a good game is nothing without a great and engaging story and this is where Ghost of Tsushima really shines. The story is fantastic and emotionally engaging. It does a great job of emotionally investing you into the main characters stories and Jins challenge with his Samurai honor. I don't want to reveal any spoilers so I will stop there.

    I honestly can't recommend this game enough and it's an experience that will stick with me for a long time. I am just looking for excuses to play it through again, here to hoping for a New Game +.

    In the meantime I eagerly await the newly announced 'Legends' multiplayer add on.

    Sucker Punch, thank you. Your love and hard work are clearly obvious. Well done.    … Expand

    ( Also i wanna state i played the entire game on hard mode never switch HIGH RECOMMEND)
    with that being said the combat makes you feel so good after you learn the new moves to overcome any of the new foes they toss your way.

    parts that feel like drags (Hunting down fox dens, getting all the Hiku's, finding all the hidden shrines)
    but i didn't feel like it was to tasking if you did that as you pressed on with the story as you did the side stuff ( do not leave it all for end game YOU'LL get bored)

    but as i said there's only a few things i didn't like but it wasn't enough to make me stop playing the game. sucker punch did a great job as always.    … Expand

    Think of this game like a lovechild of the classic Tenchu and Assassins Creed, with a touch of The Witcher 3, trust me, while you're playing, you'll get the sense of nostalgic feeling from playing those games.

    I hope this game can be a good contender for 2020's Game of The Year, it really deserves to be one of it.

    Ghost of Tsushima was a lot of fun. Although i found the story predictable and the game play cycle and open world repetitive. I enjoyed my experience. Hopefully with a sequel, the can polish up certain elements of the game. I would recommend playing this though.

    Fantastic game so far. It has beautiful graphics and environments, fun game play, and a decent story. The combat flows very well and is especially fun. The perfect swan song for the PS4. It's worth your money and is actually enjoyable to play. Unlike TLOU2, whose only similarity to GoT is the stunning graphics.

    All I have to say is, thank you, Sucker Punch. What an experience this game was. It combined elements from the usual "open world" dynamic with some perfectly new and unique features that I predict we will start to see a lot more as the next generation rolls in. A few things to note about this masterpiece:

    Graphics: 9.5/10 I cannot stress how much this pains me that it's not a 10/10,    All I have to say is, thank you, Sucker Punch. What an experience this game was. It combined elements from the usual "open world" dynamic with some perfectly new and unique features that I predict we will start to see a lot more as the next generation rolls in. A few things to note about this masterpiece:

    Graphics: 9.5/10
    I cannot stress how much this pains me that it's not a 10/10, but I have to be fair. The graphics are great, but I've noticed a couple clipping issues with certain outfits. Nothing huge, but enough to notice. Other than that, this game is stunningly beautiful from start to finish. You will end up with several background-worthy screenshots by the time you reach 100%, guaranteed.

    Narrative 10/10
    The main storyline is well thought out and creatively woven into Japanese history (much of which I was learning for the first time). The supporting characters get fleshed out beautifully and you end up with some very touching moments along the way.

    Protagonist: 10/10
    By the end, Jin Sakai will be one of your favorite video game characters without a doubt. For me, he's right up there with the Arthur Morgan's, Joel Miller's, and Peter Parker's of the video game world.

    Characters/Interactions: 10/10
    Like i mentioned above, this game is sprinkled with interesting characters throughout each Act. Usually, I hate open world side quests where it's just a cheesy talking-head-style conversation like "Help! I can't find my brother!", "Okay, I will help!" And I understand that this is just the nature of a lot of games, but I think GoT does a few small things that enhance these moments so they carry a little more weight, i.e. cut scene camera angles, multi-step side quests.

    Villain: 10/10
    Khotun Khan provides some of the game's best moments and 100% deserves to be mentioned in this review. The way that he is also fictionally woven into Japanese history is creative and effective. Well done, Sucker Punch!

    Cutscenes/Editing 10/10
    There's A LOT to mention here. Right out of the gate, you are blessed with an intro that is sure to give you goosebumps. Throughout, there's a couple battle scenes that give "Battle of the Bastards" a run for it's money (shout out the other GoT! Except S8). The atmosphere of the game really captures you at the most random moments, for example, the short cut scene and score before you begin a duel *chefs kiss*. I'm leaving out a lot of stuff here, but I'll let you experience these things for yourself!

    Gameplay 10/10
    The combat in this game is so satisfying. I'd put it right up there with God of War and Jedi Fallen Order, which IMO have some of the most fun combat in recent years. I love the fact that you have multiple options when approaching a fight. Most of the time, I took the aggressive approach and then adjusted if I found something else to be more effective. Also, the animations during combat are so f****** cool! There are a lot of little things that this game does well to enhance your experience too. Things like no HUD, petting foxes, impressive platforming dynamic, playing the flute, the haiku feature, etc. I could go on and on!

    Overall I'll give this game a 9.5/10 with my only (VERY minor) gripe being about the graphics and the clipping issue that I kept noticing. This PS generation is definitely going out with a bang with this one, and you will not want to miss it.    … Expand

    The story is good too, albeit quite predictable and bland at some points although it is serviceable. Nevertheless, I thought it did well at presenting the story of a warrior, one of the last of his kind, attempting to unite a resistance against genocidal invaders. Not perfect by any means, but quite good.

    Smaller issues are related to bugs and smoothness. Sometimes the frame rate may drop and some movement controls are stiff such as climbing and traversal. Dropping down from ledges is a nightmare and the horse only has two movement options of a fast walk and a fast gallop. This could easily be fixed in a bug patch or an update. Pretty good job, and I think it could be a strong contender for game of the year. The six years of development paid off very well.    … 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.
