    Ghost of Tsushima is one of the best samurai games of all time, a captivating world filled with an exceeding amount of things to do, while implementing an engaging, memorable combat system.

    Довольно нелепый паркур, но великолепная боевая система и восхитительные пейзажи. Играть очень интересно, но до шедевра не дотягивает

    Jim's cut of Ghost of Tsushima is a TERRIFIC addition to PS5's already extremely robust year 1 library of first party titles! The improved visuals and performance, utilization of the DualSense features, Japanese lip sync, Iki Island expansion on disc, and new content added to fantastic multiplayer mode Ghost of Tsushima Legends make this absolutely worth the price to upgrade.

    I are ghost. Spooky. 10/10
    For real though, this looks amazing, the additional PS5 features are very nice. 3D audio with the Pulse headphones is amazing. It's so peaceful.

    The Director's Cut is my first time playing Ghost of Tsushima as I wanted to wait until I could play it on a PS5 and I do not regret it. The Dual Sense controller really does increase the experience of a great game.

    To start, the game is graphically very beautiful. There's lots to see and the landscape is generally quite diverse. It really does show off the graphical capabilities of    The Director's Cut is my first time playing Ghost of Tsushima as I wanted to wait until I could play it on a PS5 and I do not regret it. The Dual Sense controller really does increase the experience of a great game.

    To start, the game is graphically very beautiful. There's lots to see and the landscape is generally quite diverse. It really does show off the graphical capabilities of the PS5 and I do enjoy how realistic most of the textures are. Everything sounds good and the voice acting is very average. The story itself is absolutely fantastic with lots of good lore in both the main missions and side missions with lots of good and important messages contained within.

    With all that said, the game isn't perfect. While combat and gameplay is mostly good, the lack of decent crafting options is a bit disappointing. There's all the makings of what could be a good crafting system that isn't followed through on nearly enough and in fact isn't even ever actually called crafting. It certainly should be crafting, since a lot of the game is collecting crafting materials and there's enough materials in the game for a full crafting system, but a lot of the materials just end up feeling useless.

    While Jin's (your main character) move set is very diverse, it's almost too diverse as there were clearly not enough buttons on the controller for them to do everything with this game that they wanted to, ending up with a lot of switching between weapons and sword forms while in combat. It doesn't always feel super smooth for that reason. However, the different ways you can play the game and either go straight into combat or use stealth or a mixture of both even makes the game feel like there's a lot of variety in how you can approach each mission.

    I think my biggest issue with the game however is that it's simply too long. While this may be to how I decided to play, completing the side missions while also playing through the main story, the game felt like it was going on forever. I enjoyed most of my time with it, but as someone who likes to play a lot of games, I wouldn't have minded if it was just a bit shorter so I can move on to the next game. 25-35 hours including side content should be about the right length and this game is about twice that amount of time.

    While I did enjoy Ghost of Tsushima, I do find it to be a bit overhyped when you hear people talking about it or read other people's reviews. While the game is high quality, there's nothing super innovative here, at least not innovative enough that I would expect other games to try it too. It's a fun game that is very much worth playing for the story and gameplay, but I don't see myself revisiting anytime soon.    … Expand

    Well done update for a great game. Lots of new content is complemented by a ton of new gameplay elements. More content was missing from the basic game, otherwise there was nothing to complain about. And now everything is fine. Reason to buy Playstation 5 if you don't already have one.

    Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut has improved the graphic of the game greatly. The newly added Iki Island brings new stories and challenges, and further extended the story background. For players who have already cleared the game, playing the Director's Cut version is still an unforgettable experience.

    It’s more of a regular DLC paired with some improvements for the PS5 rather than a true director’s cut. However, the developers do deserve praise for how skillfully they inserted the expansion into the narrative of the base game. The story about Jin’s past and the sins of ancestors is great (as opposed to boring side quests), new enemies pose a challenge, and the game as a whole shines on PS5’s more powerful hardware. I wish the visual improvements were more noticeable though. [11/2021, p.31]
