i wish you guys talked about "Ghost of Yarikawa" level. from it's build up till it's ending and it's music, all were iconic. Ghost of Tsushima's Opening + Ghost of Yarikawa level + Ending are all iconic moments of Ghost. what a team SuckerPunch is. this is what happens when a team goes on making what they are passionate about
Also all the end of act 2: from the "Fate of Tsushima" siege of castle Shimura to Jin finally accepting his ghost identity to end with the horse death in the devastated land and the intro of act 3. Honestly is the best part of the game for me.
I've never had a video game make me tear up and cry until Ghost of Tsushima, and there's a few moments in the game that provoke deep emotion. Thank you Sucker Punch.
The title card sequence is possibly the most beautiful intro to a game ever. The incredible score mixed w/ the scenery gave (& still gives) me chills. The best part is that you've already been playing for around 30 min to an hour at this point, and thinking that you're already into the game a bit. But then you're like: "That's was the intro!?!??"
@@MichaelDoesLife I'm kinda impressed for how long you have kept your shtick up. Are you always like that or do u put on a character for ur vids? Either way it's impressive... in a sad way.
@@MichaelDoesLife And that's false. I would just get an Xbox if they had games like Ghost of Tsushima. If the roles were reversed, and XBOX had all the exclusives of PS and visa versa.... you'd probably be on the Playstation side hating on all the xbox exclusives. That's just what you live for.
This game is art and game . We have played this game gameplay wise before . But there are tweaks to it . But the characters are so good. You just don't stop playing
One of the many reasons why this game was so successful... the developers listened to the public. "Can we have multiplayer?" "Yes." "... That was easy"
I love this game. Knowing that all this work went into the title card sequence makes me love it even more. But my favorite moment is when Jin saves Yarikawa and has that badass speech. It made me wanna jump in the screen and join him in the war against the mongols.
Gorgeous mini-documentary. I hold IGN to low standards these days, but this content is superb quality. I hope they focus more on this, and possibly create their own channel dedicated to these videos
I've been playing games since the 70s , this is the most impactful title sequence I've ever experienced !!! I can't remember any intro having that much weight in any movie never mind a game !!!
I'm an indie dev working a VR horseback girly riding game (I swear the post is still related) and this opening and how they handed control over to the player at that moment was the most inspiring thing I've seen as an indie that I wish I could buy these guys a lot of beers. I had a scene in my demo where you rode through a field of purple flowers. Serious devs didn't think I was making anything special until they viewed that demo scene. One of the triple A guys said "this is it. This is what people are going to want. You got something here". This scene put me back in the validating moment. I love you all for it
Just picked up Ghost recently, within the past couple weeks. I had seen that intro title card before, multiple times, but it didn’t hit nearly as hard until I played the game and saw it. The phenomenal score, superb scenery with Jin speeding through the field, leaning down from his horse to touch the grass, it gave me chills that very few things do. Between this, the Sly Cooper series, and what I’ve played of Infamous, Sucker Punch is honestly my favorite Sony dev
Bro it was freaking 4AM playing this game and I GOT THE BIGGEST GOOSEBUMPS from the title card and was so amazed. Definitely one of the best if not the best intro to a game.
The rush of euphoria that came over me as I got on that horse and flew into the grasslands with the music and Jin reaching out and touching the grass was epic!! One of the best cinematic scenes in any game I’ve ever played. Thank u sucker punch u guys rock!!
I toke break from videos games skipping the whole PS4 era recently just bought a PS5 and this was the first game I played it was the perfect game to bring me back to gaming. 10/10
Great job on this to everyone involved. It was great to hear more about this sequence and how it came to be. Thanks for the peek behind the curtain on one of my favorite games.
When you get a ad for Ghost of Tsushima on a Ghost of Tsushima video!! Literally though, the intro to this game is the best and the music is so amazing.
@@alextownley9388 bruh everyone has their "favourite game of all time" in their heart, irrespective of how old a particular person is in gaming. I have been playing video games since i was 12 from (ps2 to ps4 and going to buy PS5) but this game literally have a special place in my heart or in other words "favourite game of all time".
@@alextownley9388 that's your personal opinion which I respect that. But i am saying that in everyone's gaming life there's one particular game which makes them feel like to say "this is my favorite game of all time" Which the Ghost did, maybe in your life there's a game which makes you feel like this way or maybe in future you'll feel like this.
I’ve completed only 3 play throughs of this game, but started over I can’t even say how many times. After awhile I realized it was because the first hour or two of the game are my favorite by far.
Watching that scene unfold in a dark room with surround sound man what a moment. Its why playstation has the best movie type games. People say shit about these movie games but fuck living for these moments are worth it. Ill never forget how the aspect ratio just goes to 16:9 the moment the beat drops in the music and the moment jin comes out of the forest into the beautiful fields. And top notch camera placement as well when riding the horse
Got the game 3 weeks ago.. that info was insane for me.. what an amazing game what a story and gameplay this is what u call a true game for anyone who enjoys single player games!!
This is currently my favorite game of all time. In my opinion the best mesh of story and gameplay. I was disappointed though that NG+ skips the amazing intro. I get that they probably did it because it would be immersion breaking to have a max level Jin get stomped by Khotun, but I wish they had a work around.
Agreed. No staring at the mini map or just following an arrow. It really was a sense of exploration without too much fluff. Not even Witcher 3’s world lives up to this in my opinion. Also the way the story ramps up was perfect where most open world games get lost in the sauce.
Hands down one of the best title opening scene, music I've ever seen and felt strongly emotional since original FF7 😢😢 Dat moment whn the music swells up into a crescendo then unleashes players into magnificent Tsushima, sooo awesome & made me tear up.
At 1:26 , the controllers on the wall. Is that a Yellow one? And below is that the blue see through one? Man's got the Death Stranding and 500 million limited controller. Hell yeah, love those. Barely or didn't even use them myself. Too good for that
That game intro combines with the musical score and the timing was amazing! I’ve never been so into a game intro to the point where I screamed “FOR TSUSHIMA!!!!”
Ghost of Tsushima is easily in my top 5 PS4 games. The Assassin Creed that Ubisoft never bothered to make. And yes, that intro opening is amazing. I also like how there was a whole sequence dedicated to stealth and its meaning in this universe. This game really impressed me. It was a new kind of openworld. The world isn't as deep or detailed as RDR2, but the dynamic wind conditions and graphics created a definite surreal image on screen. I was actually shocked this was done on the PS4 because I didn't think a game could have this many effects on screen. Kind of like how I felt about Horizon Zero Dawn when it released.
Easily one of the best ever made! The cinematography and visuals are just another level… The intro!? Man, chefs kiss! This is how you do a AAA title in this day and age.
I still get chills no matter how many times I replay the game or watch it on RUclips. Sucker Punch takes my #1 spot on best gane devs ever. I've never witnessed such an amazing opening
This game is the most amazing game of the generation and current on any platform, the gameplay, the visuals, the story, the characters, the developers are true gamers, and know what us as players really want in our games. This was such a good video, thanks for sharing it with us.
This is indeed one of the most cinematic title sequences I've ever experienced as a gamer. It gives me goosebumps, not unlike an amazing scene in an epic movie. Props to everyone at Sucker Punch and PlayStation who contributed to this. Thank you IGN for diving into these little but very interesting stories of game development.
They confirmed a Ghost of Tsushima 2 after the absolute insane success of the first game obviously. What I want in the next game is just more insane and fun side things to do because the world is so open and vibrant and expansion on the combat which is already insane. Allow people to shoot arrows in the air, maybe finishing blows, maybe sleep blow darts. There’s so many things they can do already, I’m just excited
This game is definitely one to remember,...the game play, characters, scenery etc are amazing...I just recently accomplished my 1st platinum trophy with this game on my ps5....👉💯👈
Nice!!! It def felt like we were watching the birth of a new mega franchise while plying Tsushima. An experience you only get a few times in a gaming career. Absolutely amazing game
@@Tekeysix played about 30hrs so far. Im on act 3 coz the story got me hooked but now im just exploring and upgrading my gears. Going to iki soon. This game is just great. Worth every penny
I got goosebumps during that opening sequence, I appreciate that it was different than most title sequences. I also greatly appreciated the timing of the creshendo when Jin burst out into the field. It was something that I noticed immediately and was thankful that it was perfectly timed. Felt right. To me and many other gamers Ghosts was GOTY 2020.
It was very striking that this game was able to deliver the beauty and graphical levels it did while also telling a fantastic story on hardware it, at least to me at the time, had no business looking this good on. The PS5 version from footage ive seen so far im very happy with and I will be buying in for sure. Its truly amazing how something that someone says can change something for the better and this video is a great example of that. Thanks for showing us this.
The moment I knew this game was for me was the early part where you have to cross a bridge and enemies are picking you off with arrows. I remember running and jumping off the bridge and assassin killed the enemy…. one of my favourite gaming moments of all time
This is my favourite game. I wasn't bored once, and I played through it 4 times in a row. I was just completely sucked in - my entire summer/autumn 2020 consisted almost exclusively of Ghost of Tsushima, and I'm not one bit sad about it. I don't get hooked on a game but this one was something else. Just hearing the music now gives me goosebumps!
I still get chills for this opening. By far the best opening I've ever seen. The timing of the music with the breaking of the treeline is just beautiful. I can't imagine a more perfect way to start such an amazing game. This game is the best game I've played ever. The fact that the developers decided to add a multiplayer mode for free with no paid skins and stuff, just icing on the cake.
This is what I like about SP - they don't view criticisms or suggestions as something negative. They listen and roll it around and if it has merit, they go with it. A colaboration of ideas that make it better.
Did anybody notice when the very first time you use swordplay after the flashback, how da strings hit when that light gleam off your blade over your eyes 👀..........ooowee
First play through I used a headset for audio but my second I decided to use a sound bar and OMG having the soundtrack kick in almost made it feel like an orchestra
The first time I burst out into the field , my character didn’t touch the grass , I ran back and started it again just cause I was upset it didn’t happen for me lol
Best intro to anything I’ve ever watched. This game was really something special, Last time I was so into a story was with chrono cross. This game is just awesome.🔥🔥🔥

I’ll never forget when I first saw the intro when I played it I got that knot in my throat man. This shits a masterpiece.
The first time I burst out into the field , my character didn’t touch the grass , I ran back and started it again just cause I was upset it didn’t happen for me lol
Best intro to anything I’ve ever watched. This game was really something special, Last time I was so into a story was with chrono cross. This game is just awesome.🔥🔥🔥
