Ghost of Tsushima Review (PS4)

Ghost of Tsushima is unforgettable; every element from the fun and engaging combat, the sceneries and sounds intricately woven in such a spectacular way and the cast of incredible actors makes for an extremely special game- one would say a game of a lifetime

I really do have great memories from this game. The combat is key. They nailed it and in doing so made the game excellent. If the combat was more like Assassin's Creed the game would have been a crap simplistic button masher. The combat has real depth and enemies never turn into bullet sponges, the just get more skilled as the game progresses.

I might catch a lot of hate for saying this but I bought this game and honestly got really bored. I tried to get hooked but just couldn’t.

lukasmain1585d ago

Well not every single game is for every single person. You deserve no hate at all. The game wasn't for you. That's totally fine

jznrpg1585d ago

I love the game . But I am not you and I like different things . I totally disagree with you and vice versa but that is ok 👌 no game is for everyone

UnSelf1585d ago

If you didn’t like this you might like Sekiro. I go back and forth between both on a daily basis

luidoom1585d ago

I loved Sekiro and that’s why I think i didn’t enjoy this one as much

Elda1585d ago

It is like that with some games. Some games click with an individual & some games don't. Though the games are popular but I didn't like the GTA or the RDR games including TW3. Different strokes for different folks.

I dont like apples, but enjoy eating oranges.

Rhythmattic1585d ago

I don't like apples or oranges.... But I love eating both. ;)

One of my fav games from 2020. I bought it on sale for half price.

BenRC011584d ago

Love the art, its such a labour of love. Got half way through and just lost the urge to carry on though.

darklaw1584d ago

So I bought this based on the hype and the perfect scores it has received. It is a beautiful world and I had to learn how to fight with very little in ways of a tutorial, which I am fine with. I came up with a style that I enjoyed and started to progress as normal. Suddenly I am thrown into a battle where I cannot use any sub items or moves that I was used to up to that point. I had to learn to be a pure samurai in that instance. In another instance I had to learn how to use a bow with no training after I tracked down the legendary armor, and failed multiple times which led to complete frustration as I could not skip the instance.

The game is excellent, but not being able to skip cutscenes and dialog brings it down a few notches in my opinion. It does have its rage inducing moments, like when you have to save a person while being shot with arrows and being attacked from all sides, there is no skip or moving forward if you fail, and you have to keep trying until you get it right.

It was a great game.
All my Japanese friends loved it.
I remember I would visit my friend who owned a bar and we will talk about the game and sometimes other Japanese dude will join in. Pretty dope

That’s great and a little hilarious how when it was revealed western journalists tried to give off the impression that it came off racist with it being made by non Japanese developers.

CrimsonWing6953d ago

I hope western culture knocks this sh*t off. F*cking Parasites Eve took place in New York, does that make Square a bunch of racists?

-Foxtrot53d ago (Edited 53d ago )

Reminds me of Resident Evil

RE4 - Leon killing infected Spanaids...in Spain

Fine

RE5 - Chris killing infected Africans...in Africa

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*** YOU RACIST PRICKS. HOW COULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

MDTunkown53d ago

-Foxtrot
RE5 case it’s not that long ago when foreigners were killing local Africans. Leopold 2, killed millions Africans. So that’s a touchy historical topic. We don’t have any story driven games where you playing as Nazi.

goken53d ago

Somehow the same western journalists said nothing of AC shadows, when some Japanese were so offended they discussed it with their prime minister in the diet (Japanese parliament).

-Foxtrot53d ago

I've never actually thought of this...

They literally got really snarky with Ghost of Tsushima since it's announcement yet with AC Shadows they said absolutely nothing.

Double standards. Was it because it was Ubisoft or what?

Michiel198952d ago

how the f can you say this after literally everyone complains about AC? So you wanna say you checked which outlets did it for ghost "supposedly" and cross referenced them to the AC reviews? very believable

Cacabunga52d ago

western journalism is all about splitting of communities.

Don’t bother with obscured his last 2 brain cells died when he realized ALL NEW XBOX “EXCLUSIVES “ ARE COMING TO PLAYSTATION
It’s so bad he wrote the answer to his IQ leve as a new account, instead of writing iq 6 yeah he wrote YQIA6🤣.
NOW BACK TO THE TOPIC
Everyone knows that Japan lost their relevancy as the source of video games decades ago so it’s no surprise to anyone with 2 brain cells that this would happen now I would like to see any Microsoft exclusive have the courage to say how many units halo sold in Japan or better jet the number of consoles sold in its totality 🤷🏿

senorfartcushion52d ago

?

It's a AAA videogame. Western journalists only like and care about these games. It's Yotei that's lroving controversial, for stupid reasons - but it's journalists who are trying to talk that game up.
