    Haven't wanted to put it down since I started playing. Combat is rewarding and never gets old. The environments are picture perfect everywhere you go. The story is amazing in structure, style, and content.

    En mi opinión el juego es perfecto. La trama es interesante, los personajes son buenísimos y realmente te hace meterte en el papel del prota. Aparte también es, creo yo, un top 3 en mejores mundos abiertos, no es ni muy grande ni muy pequeño y es muy bello además de que hay muchas cosas que hacer.

The star highlight of this game is the one on one duel supplemented by an excellent storyline, cast, stunning visual effects and environmental effects and design. Kudos to the team for trying to pull it off.
    The only drawback to the game that I found was the second act lagged a bit, but otherwise the charecter development and npc quests that you can do, give a deeper understanding of the reason why people are attracted to the main protagonist Jin. All in all I'd recommend it as a must play. I also liked the organic way of way points and the minimal hud. Play the game and feel like a badass samurai on the normal difficulty or the recent update ups the ante with the inclusion of a super difficult mode for seasoned masochists

I personally recommend that everyone should play this game. The game does have some flaws though. But they aren’t major or really effect your experience. My first issue is that their isn’t a new game plus, and my second issue is that the game has a few bugs. But nothing game breaking. In conclusion, Ghost of Tsushima is a game that is worth your time and money. Expand

    Not sure why this game has an 83 its pretty close to a perfect score in my opinion. Thrilling swordplay of sekiro and great map exploration of witcher 3 without all the clutter of the hud. Everyone is free to their opinions but you probably shouldn't hangout with people who don't like this game.

The story is very interesting and the side quests are great too and sometimes it makes me wonder why some of them aren’t main story missions because they’re so detailed and fun to play through. Combat is fantastic until the camera angle interferes but it doesn’t happen too often. Sometimes the difficulty can spike randomly and I was able to retry the area if I died and beat it with different methods of approach, but that could also be fixed by just grinding out the mongol camps and side missions and you should be able to blast through it with no issues. Some of the cutscenes and lip syncing to the dialogue can be a little wonky but that’s a nitpick honestly. And honestly most of these are nitpicks because the rest is so great I was able to look over all of that. So I wouldn’t say it’s perfect but it’s pretty close. Expand

    gameplay is really good but I didn't feel like I relate to any of the characters. the story could have been much better and the side missions seemed repetitive and kinda boring. the only reason I'm giving this an 8 is the gameplay which is one of the best gameplays I've seen in a game.

    Great game that’s has a beautiful opening! I loved almost every second of this beautiful and lush game. Even though the stealth gameplay is very average, the samurai gameplay is satisfying. The story while not very interesting, the side characters have some astonishing traits that kept me playing the game. Can’t wait to see what this studio comes out with next.

You should pick this game up for your PS4. I can't wait to see what other games SuckerPunch will release cause they blew my mind with this game. One gameplay element that I wish was there is a lock on mode for enemies. The camera is pretty bad at tracking you and sometimes you can't even see enemies. But other than that it's a pretty good game i think you should pick up if you have a PS4 or if you're reading this in the future for your PS5. As said previously, this game was one HUGE way to finish off the PS4 game library after the huge disappointment that was the Last of Us 2. JUST GET THIS GAME STOP READING MY REVIEW. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think it's an open world game too much limited, it took me 'bout 20 hours to rescue Shimura, hours that seemed endless clearing Mongolian camps in Izuhara like a Far Cry, the story had excellent potential, but it is poorly told, Everything is going very well, and one mission later everything goes very wrong, I did everything I could without using stealth, I would have liked that the use of stealth or face-to-face combat had consequences in the story and the characters, like Dishonored does, the way how is limited by camps that aren't your level is also very abrupt, with deluges of arrows coming from… non-existent bows? please. I have completed it 100%, and I have felt all this as an rpg player and a lover of Japanese culture, artistically it is amazing, but in terms of playability I don't like it. Expand

    Sucker Punch took that base platform and ran with it, pushing those combat mechanics further than before. But this time, stealth is optional, not preferred. In fact, the blade on blade combat takes the spotlight as we live out a long awaited fantasy in a heavily romanticized location.
    Everything about this game looks and feels great. A perfect send off for the ps4!

    Je met ce jeu au coté de zelda breath of the wild.
    sinon pour les immondes notes de la presse qui suce des jeux de merde comme rdr2 &cie moi je persiste et signe que ce ghost of tsushima est 100 plus intéressant qu'un rdr2 sur tout les points.

Sadly ultra left progressive reviewers bombed this game with 60s and 70s when that is far from the rating it deserves all because it doesn't have thar ultra diverse marginalized cast they always beg for. People need to get off their high horse of virtue signaling and allow people to enjoy games for what they are ENTERTAINMENT NOT POLITICAL STATEMENTS. Expand

    I never review games - I came to review this one.

    Pros:
    - Open world isn't a bunch of filler junk, it all feels meaningful and progressive overall. I HATE open world games! It's always "Please go collect 10 bear pelts whlle my world is burning".
    I LOVE this open world, though. Everything is meaningful and built into the story. Every place has a story or pushes you to a side-quest that feels meaningful and intertwined. It's not just "go hunt some robots for the hunters lodge because this is easy filler to build" - It FEELS meaningful. It feels like a good balance.

    -Combat and leveling is done right - Not just becoming a meat shield or hitting harder... you actually gain new abilities, get stronger, learn new things, and then can take down enemies using those new things. I LOVE how this intertwines with the story - that he needs to learn ways outside the traditional samurai code to defeat the enemies that have studied their ways.

    -Combat is done right. It's a fine balance between assassins creed boringness and not so frustrating as dark souls where you just die sometimes because there was a monster around that corner.

    -Story is well voice acted, I love where it's going, and I love the world building

    -I LOVE the minimalist HUD. Thank you. Finally a game that immerses you. A good HUD is often overlooked! The way they integrate pathfinding into the wind is a great example of getting rid of waypoint silliness.

    -Music and sound is amazing. The intersection between music and gameplay here has given me goosebumps multiple times. The score is top notch, one of the best I've listened to in a long time.

    -This game is THOUGHTFUL. In the story, at one point, his uncle says his father's spirit is in the sword and the winds will guide him. The waypoint system is by flicking up the touch pad and the wind guides you to your next journey. In real life, this story isn't true and the mongols were wiped out by two hurricans - KamiKaze - God's wind. They are having trouble with the Mongols because they know how the Samurai operate - and leveling is based on him learning new skills outside the way of the samurai to defeat his enemies by finding new ways to defeat their enemies. You don't get stronger through stats and weapons necessarily, but a ton of new cool skills that help defeat these specific enemies as you grow and learn about them - you level up by killing AND spying, etc. That is some top notch game design, and I continue to find gems like this as I play.

    Cons
    -They made some odd choices for the sake of the open world. I'm glad it doesn't take 10 years to travel across like breathe of the wild, but it's also odd that a peaceful village is a 4 minute horse ride away from an enemy fort. That DOES fit with the story, but you have to suspend your disbelief a little here for the sake of avoiding a ton of boring travel

    -no matter the language the mouths don’t match the words. They should’ve stuck to Japanese mouth animations and let the others just deal with it. It seems like failing all animation options was a poor design choice.

    -poor choices on where to “store weapons”. Just sling it around my shoulder or something. Whipping a bow out of your butthole seems silly.

    Most complains or cons are pretty minor so I’m not going to knock it down for these items

    Graphics
    10/10. Clearly one of the most visually stunning games we've ever seen.

    Gameplay
    9/10 Wonderful designed weaved in with story, not stupid bullet sponges, and not a bunch of crappy filler.

    Music/Sound
    10/10 - Amazing design and combinations

    Story/Style/Writing
    9/10 - Solid story, great presentation, very well done stylistically and clearly designed to a very deep level

    Every 0/0 review I see is "game is good but I hate waiting 36 hours FU metacrticic" Or "Game is good but it's not RDR2". Are you kidding me userscores? Get rela.

This game is beautifully made and it isnt afraid to show that with its amazing Kurosawa mode, that takes you into a black and white color version of the game to make you feel like youre watching an old cinematic movie. Half the time i didnt want to turn Kurosawa mode because it was like watching an original Samurai movie and it just fit so well. Through playing i couldnt find any negatives, the mechanics can be a little wonky and the rag doll can be silly, but this games positives overwhlem the negatives.

Growing into "The Ghost" was one of the dopest, most exciting things I experienced in a game. As your legend grows, you hear more people whispering tales about you out in the world. Incredible, incredible story arc. The combat makes you feel like that badass wandering Samurai you've seen in all forms of media. Sucker Punch nailed it perfectly. I started as the "Samurai", rushing down all opponents, but eventually decided to play more stealthy as the game progressed and it enhanced my fun even further. Mixing the two styles just feels amazing. Relaxing in the beautiful world Sucker Punch created can legit be it's own form of meditation. The art direction here is insane. The side quests (which are not fetch quests and are very entertaining) kept me pushing for more. So much so, I was afraid I would run out of things to do. After just finishing, there is still so much left. There are some issues, like the camera at times, but it was really nothing compared to everything else. I love it. 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.
