    Um dos melhores exclusivos do PlayStation e dessa geração. Excelente game feito pela SP! Mundo aberto vivo, lindo, dinâmico e cheio de vida!
    A jornada do herói de Jin é incrível, totalmente convidativa a explorar esse belíssimo universo retratando o Japão, sendo fiel a cultura japonesa em todos os aspectos. Ghost Of Tsushima é uma carta de amor Japão!

    The game is gorgeous. The scenery is lush and the lighting is amazing. There are going to be a good number of people who are going to spend hours in photo more. The sword play is good and learning new stances allows for some variability. It's certainly worth a play. It feels like a proper send off for the PS4.

    Okay, I thought The Last of Us 2 had the best graphics on the PS4, Well I was totally wrong. Ghost of Tsushima is an amazing game that has such a great visual fidelity that I am baffled that a game can look this good on such an old console.

Ghost of Tsushima is an amazing game that has such a great visual fidelity that I am baffled that a game can look this good on such an old console.

    The gameplay is enjoyable but I have some gripes, such as weird npc actions that is typical in this type of open world. Combat is fun enough but not my favorite. Some of the abilites that you can unlock feels like moves you should have unlocked from the start but overall gameplay keeps you engaged.

    The story is a bit traditional with average characters. Probably the weakest point at the moment, and from how much I played hasn't changed yet.

    The sound design is top notch. The sound of thunder and the wind blowing around you is very spot on. Voice actors are well acted in both Japanese and English. No real negatives in this category.

    Graphically, this game is quite amazing. There was only a few times where I looked at a scene in gaming and was excited, Final Fantasy Remake when you enter Sector 7 slums, Dark Souls 3 after you leave the catacombs, and then the majority of time in this game. Granted I did put The Last of Us 2 as the pinnacle of graphic on the ps4, but nothing about its graphics really screams at me to be in awe, as The Last of Us 2 is portrayed to be realistic, but if I wanted realistic I would just walk outside. Ghost of Tsushima is a game that blends realism with professional photography together. There is a reason why professional photography looks as good as it does, because they understand how to fix the lighting and color to be satisfying for the human eye. Ghost of Tsushima does that for basically the whole game. The graphics do have some faults however. Some animation such as weird lip syncs especially in Japanese and animation bugs pulls you out of it but the game pulls you back in with everything else once again.

    Overall this game is quite the achievement. If you love samurais and amazing graphics this is for you. The game is held back by average story and some some gameplay and graphic problems but As one of the last 1 party games on the ps4 I think this worth playing.    … Expand

    Seems beautiful and very easy to get into the open world element in the stylish sword play may make the world seem to much like the worst part of assassin's creed, but the twist of the japanise Ronin like adventure seems very innovative as it was only experimented with the star wars croma.

    Amazing game, I so lucky to have this and currently still playing it. Superb Graphics and visual art direction, both day and night looks breathtaking. Combat is satisfying and requires skill the further you go. Great amount of enemy variants, and you can enter a battle with many tactical/strategic ways. Many unlockables such as weapon cosmetics and armors.

The developers made good use of the touch pad which we haven’t seen much of with the PS4 and I congratulate them for their creativity. At times the combat was kinda clunky but nothing really it flowed really well. Sometimes in enemy bases it was unclear where to go and the little wind icon would’ve been very handy to help navigate your way around. I’m keeping this short as there isn’t really anything bad to say. The game looks amazing and is amazing from start to finish, it’s kind of like a modern day Skyrim but in its own way. Overall really good I enjoyed every second and would recommend to anyone. 9.5/10

    At first, the game caused only one yawn and indignation from what he saw. But, nevertheless, after playing it for several tens of hours, you will really be imbued with the history of the protagonist and the spirit of that ancient Japan. The only drawbacks are the first act and the rather awkward camera controls. All in all, SP has a pretty passable game trhat closes the PS4 exclusive lineup.

    Beautiful environments, fluid combat system, historically accurate content. Ghost of Tsushima delivers a much needed update to the genre. The stealth system does need a little work and the graphics could be a bit more polished. However the promise of making you feel like a Samurai checks every box. All in all this is a great game that many lovers of Japanese lore and this time period will enjoy.

There's a few too many mongol patrols on the roads, to the point that I don't have fun exploring b/c there's yet another group of 4-8 enemies to kill. Another let down is in the basic side quests, where it becomes nothing but go to an area and kill the camp of mongols.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I would have to say that this game is just a beautiful in story telling, character development, and just the sheer beauty of this open world. I think that the main thing I appreciated the most though was the environment and the graphics for a console that has been out for a long time. I also enjoyed the whole combat scene. Although I'm not a big fan of the whole parry combat thing, i must say it is hard at first but eventually you’ll get the hanged of it and becomes a little boring/repetitive but its fine. The reason why it is fine is due to the story and the sheer amount of side missions/quests. Another thing that I really loved was the character development in the story. Jin in my opinion was my favorite character because you get to see him grow into this boy into a lord but sadly losing it and being a outlaw. Another thing about all the characters, is that all the characters were unique in there own way and not one character that was in the game felt like a boring character and wasn’t just a burden if that makes any sense. I also liked how you can enter into a base and choose how you want to handle this base like being stealthy or going all in. I found myself just riding around and taking my time with the game and never felt like I wasted my time. I also liked how you can learn new techniques as your legend continues to grow. However, one thing that I disliked is the camera. The camera for me was kinda janky if that makes sense and there was some bugs here and there but it is a VERY VERY small issue and isn’t that big of a deal. The message of the story was I guess you can say Revenge because Jin is trying to kill the mongols that took his land and killed his people but i’m just guessing and have no idea what the message in the story is. The ending in my opinion was very good and I like how the game gives you a option on to kill your uncle or let him live to which gives you some replay ability. Another thing I appreciate is how there isn’t any agenda like some other game that people like to compare this game to. Now i don’t have a problem with any SJW or anything of that sort but it just doesn’t belong in video games, and i think people forget what video games are suppose to be. A fun game where you can take your mind off of real world issues and just enjoy yourself. I hate how people like to compare this to The Last Of Us 2 to which I understand if you wanna compare the 2 games in the stories/characters and the characters development but other than that, its just unnecessary or immature. This is however a great game and is a great final exclusive for this console generation and is a great game for 2020 because MAN....did we need something fun and enjoyable this year of video games especially after The Last Of Us 2 came out.… Expand

    Ghost Of Tsushima is the most beautiful game I've ever played. In the runnings for favorite game of all time. GOTY hands down.

    I'm a pretty critical individual and don't review games too often - Ultimately, I would say 9.5/10, but the execution and extent of what they've accomplished with this title is deserving of perfect marks.

    Graphics/aesthetic - Often times I found myself traveling through the open-world in astonishment of its sheer beauty. No 2 places look the same, and there is a massive dynamic to the geography of the land of Tsushima.
    This game was able to take me away to a kind of "happy place" w/o causing analysis paralysis. Incredible.

    Audio - I'm a big sound guy and the soundtrack wasn't anything too memorable to me, but it was still killer. I really enjoyed how Sakai's flute was incorporated into the game, albeit seldomly. The score definitely helped "get me" at the end when transitioning into the credits. Beautiful.

    Story - Was incredible. A couple of parts made me go "hmm plot convenience/hole?" but those were few and far between.
    The game is true to a samurai's tale, which was a huge deal to me.

    Characters - Great development from beginning to end.

    Gameplay - My favorite game mechanics to date (for the most part). I love not having to wait for stupid animations when doing menial tasks like collecting bamboo or picking up linen. This is something that bothered me with titles like RedDead2 and Farcry5... like... why do I have to watch the character pick leaves or skin an animal every time? I have things to do. Please don't waste my time.
    However, just like in RD2, this game allows you to approach most situations however you like (stealth/aggressive) BUT sometimes makes you handle certain tales specific ways, which can confuse gamers... Especially if they are stoned... ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    Combat - is killer and makes you feel like a legit samurai. Super smooth and graceful. The way you level feel clean and gradual as well. The only gripe here is a lock-on system would have been beneficial. Especially for indoor combat. But ultimately I found it so fun that I can't even start to complain about that.
    Standoffs and the last stance you acquire are so pimpin when used in succession*

    Conclusion:
    Bravo Sucker Punch. Bravo. This game is truly phenomenal.
    Can't wait to see what's in store from you guys next!

    Critics giving this game an 8.3/10 discredits their ability to analyze a game from a player's non-bias perspective.
    Ghosts better beat "tlou2" (which got a 9.4 meta) for GOTY or we'll know there's some shady stuff going on behind the scenes - That game was a burning dumpster fire. This game is a timeless treasure.    … Expand

    One of the best games I have ever played. One of the few open world games, which makes me want to explore and do the side missions. The combat is really deep and the enemies get tougher as you progress. Graphics, gameplay, music - top notch! Only tip - Play the game in ‘Hard’ difficult mode.

There's also no lock-on system which I feel the game might have benefited a lot from it if implemented. there are times in the game where you're fighting and the camera stays in a position where it's very awkward for you to see the enemies behind you or next to you making you decide between pressing the right button at the right time or to get hit to move the camera to a better position

    If you're looking for an action adventure game with mind blowing new features, then this game like most, offer the common tropes. Gather collectibles, liberate Outposts that show you more of the map , investigate areas, and defeat all enemies. All of this so that you may increase your characters level in one way or another. If you come to play the game and enjoy some samurai style action and enjoy a visually and engaging game then this game is for you. But if you expect to see mind-blowing new features in an action adventure game then you'll quickly realize that it's like most action adventure games.    … Expand

    I can happily say good bye to my ps4 and welcome the ps5 after playing this game!! It was amazing!! Astoundingly beautiful! And it removed the bad taste in my mouth from the last of us 2 and restored my faith in good enjoyable games! (probably never gonna restore my faith in naughty dog though, never buying one of their games again) While the game did some things PERFECTLY! It did do som other things at a mediocre level and I totally get it!! A game that beautiful, that good, that fun and enjoyable on such old hardware is bound to have some sacrifices The combat was superb! At the beginning i thought it may benefit from a lockon on different characters but after finishing the game I understand why they didn't The samurai combat is fluid and strong and you frequently one shot enemys and need the ability to move around more

    One thing i did find kind of hilarious is that the AI for enemys Isent that great but it gets better later on! I played the game on the hard difficulty and even then it felt really easy (this is probably because i do all the side quests first) The armour is also beautiful! Such nice designs and progression and dyes!
    This game could benefit from a more in-depth merchant-customer interaction other than upgrading your swords and bows - simmilar to the witcher 3 but not as big and indepth! The side quests felt like main missions on their own and i loved them!
    The main story was also AMAZING with a fantastic ending!! BUT! They could of definitely made it better! Alot better! Just little things!
    The flash backs with your uncle were such a nice touch and if those were implemented with other characters like ryuzo or your father it would of been great! A little more in touch with the story If the main story had built up a little more suspense it would of been fantastic!


    Honestly this game and how it was handled is a 10/10 for me, right up there with horizon zero dawn and god of war and sekiro and red dead redemption Its worth the price tag (this is one of the only games i say that about) Do not hesitate in buying it because you will love it, play it on hard difficulty for more enjoyment A few minority have said the game is racist This game is not racist and does not force any racist or political agendas (like the last of us 2) The Japanese people absolutely love this game (sold out there), the western people love this game, its depiction is respectful and does justice to japans beauty and history This is humanities history and having an interest in humanities history gives you the right to delve in and make the past a reality through a video game

    Do not make up problems when there aren't any.

    Great work sucker punch! You're at the top of my list! Creating a sequel on the ps5 would be incredible though (im already excited for horizon zero dawn! Lets hope they dont butcher it like the last of us 2) Im not sure how you'd structure a story after that ending but i'd love to see your try! Maybe going to the mainland? On shogun territory itself?
    Or maybe the game dosent need a sequel at all!    … Expand

    Ghost Of Tsuhima has a beautifully cinematic story and some very enjoyable combat encounters, with deep progression underpinning these aspects.
    However, at times the stealth aspects of the game can be very flat and almost clunky. This part of the game feels a tad bit underdeveloped compared to the high standard of polish on every other aspect.

    Finally finished this gem. This game takes a known open world formula and makes it fresh again. The story is great. It resembles assassin's Creed in some ways but it executes at such a high level that comparing it to ac should be an insult. This is a game of the year contender for sure.

    A superb game, a game that is a slow burner as it unravels you learn about your abilities as a samurai and as a ninja taking the fight in either of these styles open and head on or covert in the shadows like tenchu.

The massive open world offers many beautiful locations to take full advantage of its photo mode, as well as set the tone for the epic battles that take place in them. The story being the next downside as its pretty bland and predictable, however the many side quests (Tales of Tsushima and Mythic Tales) offer a deeper look into the lore of the world we find ourselves in. sure not all the side quests offer such, but the companions you set out to recruit offer up some nice "Tales" to get to know them better and develop their character further.

    Overall the game offers up enough for the player to really want to explore every inch of the massive map. whether it be the vanity pieces (cosmetic items) or the many collectibles and artifacts. you will always have something to do as in most open world AAA's. Combat is where this game really shines, bringing the cinematic dramatization of Samurai epics into play each fight feels rewarding and satisfying. While the minor enemies may not offer up much of a challenge in the later hours, some of the mini bosses and bosses can be tricky. Amazing solid game from Sucker Punch!    … 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.
