Ghost of Tsushima is one of the finest open world games I've played, one of the best Samurai games ever made and the perfect swan song for the PS4. Do yourself a favor and play this game.

I want to order one but they don’t ship to Germany (yet) :(
I posted review a week before no one trusts a small reviewer 😭😭😭😭😭✌️😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Every big one gives Ghost of Tsushima a 9, Gamespot again a 7/10. They really really hate Sony. Now it’s more than clear. And the problem is, they are one of the big ones on Metacritic which will cause a big damage on the score overall. -.-
I always always love your recommendations on games. You are my go to reviewer for any game that is coming out as I find your opinion honest and unbiased.
I have a question which I am sure a lot of other people would have too. Japanese or English Audio??
ill play it too, if i got it for free
"Don't just add more HP to the target, make them fight smarter and better"
"No level gating."
"makes you feel like a samurai"
"their traversal challenge"
"No cluttered map"
is this really the Assassin's Creed game I've been waiting for?
It’s the assassins creed everyone’s been waiting for and I haven’t even played assassins creed like ever
No, this is better
Thank god for point #1. One of the biggest disappointments with modern AC games are level/gear gating. The “gear power rating” is eventually gonna turn the game into Diablo/Destiny/WoW where it’s just bigger and bigger numbers in a STEALTH ACTION GAME. Assassinations should be all about skills and techniques, and not about grinding for gears.
I'm glad there is no level gating. I don't want to have to grind for hours and hours leveling up my character and weapons. This open world also has this calming look to it that makes you want to explore it.
I wish this was the direction the Assassin's Creed franchise went.
20:44 "Combat doesn't become harder because enemies become more spongy, it becomes harder because they fight better, they are better combatants against you" That's all I needed to hear.
Iain Steele Because they all play on easy mode lol, you need to see someone playing it on hard mode, that’s were the AI gets tough and smarter. Also, supposedly there’s a 8 gb update on the day of release so they will probably fix whatever bug or problem the AI has
Same. Im so glad they dont become spongy and take 10 thousand cuts to kill.
@Iain Steele there's gonna be an 8 GB patch on day one which will probably smoove out a lot of the technical issues.
Wow, difficulty progression that is actually progressive? Not being sarcastic, unironically, that is incredibly impressive
Indeed
It's almost poetry that Sucker Punch created one of the first and one of the last games for the PS4.
What was.the first, infamous?
@@Sx-xy2zi Yes , not exactly the first but definitely very early in it's life cycle. it's a very underrated game imo
That's a cool thing to think about now that you mentioned it.
@@Sx-xy2zi LOL
@@Sx-xy2zi Is it just me or did that game evaporate from people's mind? Like I remember thinking it was pretty cool and then I forgot about it for years.
A little detail some people may have missed about the wind. When jins father is getting buried someone’s says...”your father is the wind behind your back and your mother the birds”. The wind guided you and so does the yellow bird
So cool
I just started playing yesterday and I noticed that detail immediately. This game is beautiful so far.
Nice
Its impossible to miss it when it invests you almost instantly. Wonderful story telling.
Another detail is if you talk to some of the NPCs Jin mentions that right before he was born his mother saw foxes outside, thus her telling Jin that the Inari fox spirit was his guardian protector. Which now ties up why we have the fox shrines
"This game is too beautiful for grayscale mode"
Suckerpunch: suffering from success
I really wish it was a black white and red mode tbh
@@Jakeyisdead no
@@Jakeyisdead yes
What's suckerpunch
@@justuraveragecunt9005 The Studio that made this game
The grass looks so good it triggers my allergies.
Underrated
That's why we play it in video games rather than going to the scary place that is outside
Nice 👍🏽
@@synthiandrakonwe have to be strong Samurai!
@@philiphundegger9335 I'll be strong later
Sucker punch also said they didn’t inflate HP on higher difficulties in order to preserve the feeling of how strong the katana is.
Such a smart decision.
Yes the katana the ultimate sword that could cut through solid slabs of steel in one strike, even the european full plate armor stand no chance against this weapon of perfection.
I’ve been playing on Hard for a few hours and the AI just seem more aggressive which is far more challenging than inflated HP, but also feels more rewarding and makes you feel like a demon
Renz Manzano try actually reading about historical warfare and how cardboard / cloth armor and katanas actually stacks up.
but by all means continue the fap over all things japan in the meantime.
Renz Manzano no
Katanas aren’t very strong swords
I understand the critique of Jin being flat but I feel like that might have been intentional because of the samurai controlling/suppressing emotion
Also I really enjoyed his bro moments with Ryuzo because of that because it semed like he could show more of himself in those moments when it was just the two of them joking around and teasing each other.
yeah i agree... i feel he is suposed to be like this but there are moments, specially with Yuna and his uncle where it just seems a bit forced
I don’t think it’s a fault of the writing or characters as much as it is the voice acting. I’m doing a second play through currently in Japanese, and the characters are much more emotive.
@@rekunta i played in japanese too and its ok. There are a few moments that are a bit forced imo but its solid
i feel like jin jas so much subtle emotion ans in the end of the game with his final choice it is really exemplified just how much he can feel and show. he is an amazing character
"No level gating."
Assassin's Creed has left the chat.
LEVEL GATING SUCKS
@@omarsabir1210 it sucks so much. I'm pretty much done with it now.
Level gating returns in November lol
What is it exactly? I'm not familiar with the term.
@@AyushMalviya It's forcing a player to reach a certain level before they are allowed to progress in the game. For example, an area can have a level requirement that you need to reach before entering that area.
Sucker Punch began the Generation with Infamous Second Son and they have ended it in phenomenal fashion with Ghost Of Tsushima. Doesn't even feel like its been 7yrs since PS4 came out. The best console generation yet imo.
Feels like yesterday I was playing second son and now I can’t wait to play ghost of Tsushima!
Sucker Punch knows how to begin and end an era
Second son was the first ps4 game I played. It came as a bundle.
Well technically Guerrilla did with Killzone
I love infamous i hope they make a new one
Gotta say this game shows how much small things can make a difference. Like the ability to play a flute with different tunes to change the games weather, being able to sheathe your sword, being able to bow and pay respect to random AI in villages and to enemies you have killed that put up a good fight. Also the unique side activities are a breath of fresh air; when I first saw that making haikus would be a part of the game I was a bit worried if that would be a good idea, but they really showed me it’s a very relaxing and unique game, 10/10.
Wait, it changes the weather?
Wind waker style ?
I should track down those crickets lol
*Jin played the Song of Storms*
And not a single mention of petting da fox.... You must be a Mongol!
@@conservativestrawman9837 yea its fun but after u done it once i couldnt care less about it
Tbh i never used the flute nor did i bow. I just love the world and combat.
I disagree about Jin, I think he's a good character.
I agree with you, they kept him as real as possible.
Jin is great
I love the way they show his transformation. There have been so many scenes that got me right in the Feelz.
ZetarOmicron a couple laughs would have made the game better. 30+ hours of seriousness was a little too much. Still a great game though.
I really like him but he's no Arthur Morgan of Samurai's
"One of the best open world games" "The best Samurai game ever made" "You have to play Ghost of Tsushima"
All in the opening minute of the review. Well that's good enough for me, when Ralph/Skill Up says things like this... SOLD!
@Toxicity that word was used WAYYY too loosely with tlou2. This game however, I can get behind
Lol ACG reviews couldn't even finish his whole sentence on how he grade the game he just said buy it.
@@treemane0 yeah with this review I already know its better and more fun than tlou2 so im sold too
I posted review a week before no one trusts a small reviewer 😭😭😭😭😭✌️😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Is skill up your daddy
I wish the Assassin’s Creed series had gone is this direction, instead of being RPG focused.
Exactly, they should've just started another franchise with the rpg stuff and said they're stopping production on assassins creed for now.
Edit: but, they wanna cash in with the title sooo
I think Origins introduced some really good elements to the AC franchise, though it certainly had it's faults. Faults that were the focus of Odyssey...which really brought the quality of that game down. Hopefully they scaled back for Valhalla. I was against the leveling system the moment I learned about it.
you´re so damn right... I loved Origins, but I somehow hoped it would be kind of an one-off RPG AC. Man, I don´t want to farm for on-level weapons in AC just to sell them after an hour bc I leveled up.
@@alexubel
they just copy pasted it into valhalla. same animation and shit.

I just got it for my birthday haven’t opened it yet still playing Red dead Redemption 2 on PC
I've been playing the game casually for about a week. Came back to say Ralph is dead wrong about Jin. His characterization is subtle, but thorough. He struggles with adjusting his fighting methods, not because of lack of ability, but not betraying his families code of honor. He is otherwise a pillar for his people, as he was trained to be, and recognized as such by the people.
Someone gets it 🔥
Yeah the part of him being bland was I think intentional you know Jin is a samurai he even mentioned that he has to suppress his emotions so I think that was that
The women love his pillar
@@socratese5 LMAOO
I just encountered a cutscene where if you assassinate someone Jin actually interacts with that and his conflicts with his code
The moment i saw him riding a horse and than letting his hand brush against the fields - bought!
Without a prompt for a quicktime event...
same thought for me too. only, for me, i was like..."i have never preordered a game before, but i guess there is a first time for everything.
Gladiator all over again, nothing wrong with that may I add 😉
@@Panda165RUclips lol. nice one sir.
The same thing happens in Assassins Creed Origins
I’m so used to swiping up for the wind to lead me, and immersing myself in the game without ever looking at a map on the bottom left or right hand side, that I really can’t play another game that has a minimap the same way again.
I wouldn't be surprised is Ubisoft copies this design and incorporates it into the next Assassin's Creed game. Actually I'm not surprised, I know it's going to happen.
@@steve833333 i swear-
@@steve833333 I mean it is only fair, pretty much every open world game this gen have taken cues from Ubisoft formula lol.
Seriously it's just awe inspiringly beautiful how you can just let the wind take you and you end up on the whole other side of the map with the help of birds and foxes and spirits like woah 🤣👏🏽🤯🥰
I love the fact that you dont even have to swipe up. Just watch the tassels on your bow, or the direction of your cape in the breeze. The UI in this game really does stay out of your way as much as possible, and it really pays off in terms of immersion. 10/10

A game with a story vs one that’s complete bullshit. Not a hard choice

I honestly like Jin and his personality shinning through as the game progress. You can also see his personality on the little animations you have with your horse after you clear a enemy camp, the conversations he has with the side characters making jokes and spoiler I guess (the armor you get if you clear all onsen baths).
What armour is this?

Ubisoft: -stealing all the good ideas- *furiously taking notes*
They will never be able to do what sucker punch did. This was a master piece and I would highly recommend.
@@emcdermott875 of course they won't haha! I have been a (regrettably) loyal fan of AC but they never fail to let me down each release
It's the other way around buddy
The fact that they haven't done one in Japan yet makes me think that they're probably shooting each other in the conference room as we speak, wondering why the fuck they didn't do this first.
@@Battlebox0 nah buddy I don't think Ubisoft will ever be able to achieve what sucker punch did. But hey, at least they have you 🐑 to buy their "AC games* . This must've been a sucker punch for Ubisoft...enjoy Valhalla!👍
I actually really like the writing. The pacing is slow for the first half but it kicks into high gear during the second half. I absolutely adore Lord Shimura and Jin’s relationship in this game. This conflict of old tradition versus new unconventional methods, and what must be done for the greater good is poetic. The finale and ending is one of the most poignant I’ve ever seen. That being said I agree with everything else. This is the most beautiful game ever, the combat is addicting and challenging, and it’s a game crafted out of passion. This game has saved the sendoff to the PS4.
4:34 Why the emphasis on Wind in this game? Because it was the the *Kamikaze storms (Japanese for divine wind)* were two storm winds that are said to have saved Japan from two Mongol fleets under Kublai Khan.
Huh, thinking about it.. The concept gets even more interesting. You're right.
Kublai Khan is a great fucking band
well actually probably because they don't want to ruin immersion with a bland waypoint
Royce Pu they could’ve done anything to not break immersion. They used wind cuz of the history
@@BoHugh not everything just happen to be coincidental. Designing things if done professionally isn't only about. "Mike, waypoints suuucc put sumthin, idk, wind? It looks sooo rad". They might have a lot of ideas of what is fittings to take over the waypoints place. They might think about what if smoke, what if bird leading you, what if camera pan, and probably someone comes up with the wind idea and they back it up with that concept. To design something isn't only about looks but more about the concept / idea behind it.
you can hear in the sound of his voice how deep he fell in love with this game.
Just like his monster hunter world review right, hahaha
@@robertjif6337 it was a good game
And that's important. You can tell it's not for the sake of getting likes or whatever. Dude actually played it and loved it. Buying the PS5 when it drops just so i can play this game!
It comes out Friday on ps4
I have to disagee with you about the writing. I feel that it really fit the era and characters well. I use to watch movies when I was a kid that basically was just like this and its refreshing to see a new take on that.
Also, I feel Jin was a ok protagonist. He wasn't cringy, ( I hate using that word,) or even uninteresting. I found him to be ok, right there in the middle.
I have to disagree with you about the era. The game is an amazing homage to Kurosawa movies etc. but that doesn't mean it fits the era. The setting of this game is during the Kamakura period (1185-1333), but the way bushido is portrayed in this game is an invention of the edo period (1603-1868). The edo period was a time of relative peace so they had time to invest in things like strict social order, but this strict social order and code of honor is what people associate with samurai. In wartime, no samurai would have cared how they killed their enemies. Take for example, Hattori Hanzo, the most famous historical ninja. He was first and foremost a samurai and was highly valued by his lord, Tokugawa Ieyasu.
I feel like they took much more of a risk in the writing. Its not the typical samurai movie but its also not every MCU movie. Its a good in between. Just like Jin. Jin was a character that a lot of us didnt like because of his decisions but we played it anyway, just like TLOU2. But this game manages it a lot lot better in terms of making a character you dont like but still empathizing with them and developing them throughout the story. Jin grows from a cult following samurai to a dishonorable ghost. I think we gotta respect Sucker Punch for doing this type of character development in these type of settings
@@dojetunes you didnt like Jin? Wtf? I understand why people get the idea hes "boring" but hes not. As a character we see him struggle with rejecting the ways of the samurai. It's even explained that the samurai way is not right throughout the game, because it's easy to predict... jin sacrifices a piece of himself to do what was necessary. He adopts the title of the ghost to adapt fear as a weapon. I think the biggest real issue is that this is seen as dishonourable, but samurai wore masks to do exactly that. Not to mention the few remarks he made which were actually quite funny like early on in the lady masako quest line. Hes a very different character but done with almost precision. Hes not wisecracking, or honour bound. He struggles with blame, sacrifice, exile, and loss. The fact you can bow to honour fallen samurai and civilians, and the connection to your horse, and characters within the plot, having people judge him for fighting in a style that is pivotal to destroy the mongols and people mention it. Theres so many finite details that show the incredible details of the game, and its character writing. Its definitely not perfect, but at least there is reason to each subtle detail
@@James-f97 thats what i was trying to say sorry if it wasnt clear. But yeah you made it a lot more understandable and thats a good point. A man who had ti change his life for the sake of thousands of lives isnt gonna follow the same old code if he wants to save everyone. Thats the whole premise of Act 3. "This is not our way... -your way cant save our people"
@@P3wP3wPanda But in this game they just spoke about ”samurai code” not literally the Bushido.
This game is amazing. Ive got ADD so means I spend hours wandering the world, getting lost and finding stuff. I forget there's a story I probably should be following- but too busy doing side quests which I enjoy - and chasing birds around. actually the world is so sweet Im just hanging out listening to nature.
i'm so immersed that i'm literally walking on foot and with the horse to all my destination enjoying the beautiful environment. The only time i run is when i'm in combat and looking for collectibles in a specific area.

@John Locke Because it's based solely on old samurai movies. And he's showing lower enemies, go check out Yong Yea, they rush him intensely.
Crazy that someone beat Ubi to the imperial Japanese assassins creed.
The Asian-american ''journalist " are criticising this game meanwhile the real Asian journalist absolutely love this game.
gomex 69 Chad Asian Journalists
Why are Asian Americans criticizing it?
@@trentimus5700 It's not politically correct enough and they think that a western company shouldn't make a game based on a foreign history, culture and story because it's racist as well as setting uncomfortable precedence in stealing culture or some crap like that.
Also, they said that Asian opinion on this shouldn't matter, only American Asian.
It's dumb, in short,.
Is this an actual trend or are you jumping on the fake outrage? All the articles I've found are praising how the game got Japan right.
@@trentimus5700 because Americans love to complain about white people making anything about non white people
The grass and leaves animations cured my depression forever
I love how the camera doesn’t always stay centered on the main character during combat. You’ll see in the video that he’ll kill an enemy, then as he’s rushing towards another one, the camera sort of lingers, almost like it’s being pulled back, and it gives this sense of forward momentum as your blow connects with the next enemy and it snaps back to you. And this isn’t just exclusive to those moments. It does it on a regular basis, providing this breathtaking cinematic scope of the fight, showing all the enemies you’re fighting against, then focusing on you in those moments in combat when you’re in the enemy’s face, almost like the camera is a measurement of the main character’s sense of awareness of his surroundings.
@@GarenDJ completely agree.
It reminds of those samurai movies where you only see there shadows and main hero is just roasting the guys coming at him. Its excellent
Is it not the lock on just lagging behind the enemy death?
@@paulwade4058 there is no enemy lock on in this game
Paul Wade The video specifically said there is no lock on. If there was, the animation wouldn’t have been nearly as smooth as it is in the final product.
I’m very happy to hear two things:
•the wind: great to have a navigation system organically integrated into the game instead of placing a waypoint on the map to have a direction marker placed on the screen. To suggest direction and not explicitly signify it. This encourages exploration past a straight line.
•swiping right to sheathe the blade: I hate when games automatically holster/sheathe weapons after a few seconds (TLoU II being a recent example). This is a small detail but hugely important. Let me walk around with my blade out for as long as I want.
You need to place waypoint on the map
did he really say that? who in their right mind would bear a weapon all day long? and why is this hugely important? what is this BS?
Swiping to sheathe is amazing.
If you've ever played a game with melee weapons, they look cool when held out. It's like when the camera centers automatically, it's annoying.
Reminds of of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It had a button to unsheathe your claws.
Lmao I'm just thinking that if Ubisoft wants to make an AC game in Japan, they'll have to stack up to this now
Must be kicking themselves in the shins now. All that material about ninjas and shinobis they could have exploited 🤣
They waited too long and SP snatched the perfect setting foe an AC game in Japan.
A samurai who would join the Brotherhood, being conflicted with his own code? A great ac character arc to build.
But too late, GoT did it lol
GUESS WHAT
I never agree with this notion that jin is a boring character, its almost like marvel movies have brainwashed people into thinking if a hero doesn't quip and make jokes every 5 seconds that they are somehow boring and have no personality or character arc
When you’re just as excited for Skill Up’s review as the game release
Ditto...
Right?!
Exactly
Nowadays I'm more excited for his review than the games themselves. This and Cyberpunk are exceptions of course
Yep, totally.
"I'm sure you can pick apart each of it's features and find fault with them"
Gamespot: you can't slice through bamboo. 7/10.
You can...Just in a mini-game tho
no that's IGN that would do that
IGN: too much cherry blossoms 5/10
Meanwhile Gamespot and IGN: Last of us 2 10/10, perfect story telling. Candidate for GOTY
Lmao
Glad you liked it man,
But in Jin's defense, its his stoicism, code of honor and emotional restraint , led to why he seemed "flat" but to me i saw Jin's internal conflict as an honor bound samurai to the duty bound ghost that wants to save his people no matter what, its what made him this dynamic character for me he feels more than he lets on, and we see this tip during one of the story encounters (no spoiler). The shade of dark and light with in him wether to be an honorable samurai, or a vigilante Ghost.
as for the story, i have to disagree too, The plot was the invasion, but the central arch of the story is Jin's principles and his relationship with his closest allies and particularly his uncle, there were definitely moments of awe and spine chilling sequences during the story that drove it to its highs and lows. The pacing was perfect it never rushed nor was filled with unnecessary filler and it really drove it home for me,
Im glad alot of people are loving this game as they should it is indeed a beautiful swansong for the PS4
Wonderful review man keep up the good work :-)
Honestly idk why people even complain about Jin, what he does is justified imo, he’s a really great protagonist!
This truly is the Samurai game we've been waiting for.
I wouldn’t have a personality if I lost my whole clan either.
Was going to say haha Jin has watched his fellow samurai butchered at the start of the game, his homeland is currently being raped by mongols with advanced warfare tactics and weapons and is having an existential crisis about betraying his strict samurai moral code, I’d be pretty fucking sad/angry/annoyed as well
It's kind of like Connor Kenway - watching his village being destroyed, his people being driven away from their land, his mother burned to a crisp and then at the end of it all, finding that his work and efforts may not even amount to anything.
Nah, people just wanted another Ezio.
@@reece42069 well you did just list 3 emotions. Pretty sure skillup meant Jin displays no emotion. He's a brick wall. You'd think someone who loves his country this much watching it get razed would at least be outwardly upset
Exactly. He grew up raised by his uncle, obviously he’s gonna be a quite, rule abiding samurai in training who’s in perfect control of his emotion. I prefer it that way for this. Makes it to where when he does write the poetry or play the flute, those are the moments where his heart is open

kurosawa has had such an unreal reach and influence across the world and i love that he's continuing to get every bit of warranted recognition/homage
(also, great review)
@psykosonikwarrior he really is. ive been going back through his works and the quality of everything from story layout to the length of single camera shots is astounding, directors these days really need to go back and see what originally made great films
I wonder what Kurosawa would’ve thought about this game. I think we owe a lot to him, and who would’ve thought his influence would eventually turn into a great video game?!

I've been here since your Nier: Automata review and havent looked back. You say it's good then I'm getting the game...hasn't failed me yet.
Yeah same, it was his Nier Automata review that got me on skill up and very much listening to his reviews. Cause Nier fucking changed me. An I might not have gotten it if I hadn't watched he's review. I got mad props for the guy. I sometimes disagree, but the games I do purchase, I normally love in one way or another.
Except for FF7 remake and TLOU2.

When I first heard about this game, I was curious.
When I first saw the trailer, I was interested.
When I first saw the gameplay reveal, I was enraptured.
And now when I hear Skill Up saying that it was the most beautiful open world game he had ever played, I was sold.
Literally could not have put it any better myself. Sucker Punch just sucker punched the potential for this out of the park. I’m so fucking excited for this game.
I hope other game developers learn from this
Man can't wait for this game preordered it yesterday
and when i got the game, i jerked off seeing the box art
God the gameplay looked so Bland
I've played this for the last few days and find the story to be perfectly fine, the side tales are quite enjoyable, got about 12 hours in and still in chapter 1, best game I've played this year so far.
I didn't hear about this game until around a month before it was going to come out, i saw a small information trailer on instagram and became Immediately hyped i even pre-ordered it and played it as soon as possible, now over a week later i've finished it to 100% compilation. No game has made me feel the way this game has with the level of care put in to it
"This game make you feel like a samurai", fun fact if you play the game in japanese, the voice actor of the protagonist is the same as Zoro from One Piece, that help for the immersion
Edit: In Samurai Champloo, there are two samurai characters, one named Jin (very traditional) and one named Mugen (more freestyle) the voice actor of Mugen is Kazuya Nakai (same as Zoro), and here is the curious thing, the name of the protagonist of this game is also Jin...
YO seriously??? I'm so glad I preorder this.
I was wondering if that was Zoro when he played the Haiku part but it seems it really is the same actor.
All the more reason to play this in Japanese
My name is Jinro and I am going to be the best Samurai in Japan!
Well, now I’m definitely playing this in Japanese (first).
I imagine Kurosawa mode being great for someone who already completed the game, and wanted to try it out in a different way.
I honestly think that’s what it’s meant for because I’m certain you’d want to take in the beauty of this world at first.
Or someone who is colorblind
That was pretty much what I said to myself. I want to play in English and in color on my first play through, then go black and white with Japanese dub the second time.
It's probably best used for specific fights/scenes rather than just leaving it on persistently.
You’re dead wrong on the writing. I found the Tales, especially the character tales to be very compelling and emotional. They clearly put a lot of work in making more interesting side quests over fetch quests. Jin is boring, but the stories and people you help, like Lady Masako, Yuna, and Norio are engaging and tragic in a lot of ways. I’m dumbfounded how all these reviewers weren’t moved by these stories. It’s like they were expecting the same gamey stuff and Sucker Punch gave us more, but we’ve unfortunately been taught to not even notice it and gloss over it because we’re not mature enough to care.
I wouldn’t say dead wrong since most or all opinions are subjective
Wrong because you disagree?
First time seeing this guy and he's giving me Gordon Ramsey vibes. As for the game I don't think I've ever seen game this smooth and this beautiful. The UI is not crowded and even though you don't see much on UI you still have everything you need. It's like Japanese simplicity, you only have what you actually need.
Absolutely perfect for OLED users.

Here we are, and I can't explain how stoked I am to finally play this. Feel like a gamer again.

C'lo 20 Yeah fr and all the microtransactions man. I mean I get they are cosmetic(usually)but still, if I pay 70€ to get half of the game it doesnt spark any joy. Im glad there are still a few good developers in gaming industry that delivers
I cleared the ENTIRE island, and at the end got all those artefacts and graveyard crickets and banners and stuff.

This combat looks soooo good
I actually loved how they wrote Jin as a character. He was raised and trained to be a Samurai which they were taught to be composed, taught to hold back emotions which you saw Jin in a flash back was told to control his emotions when an assassin came to kill Uncle Shinura, samurai are also very stoic. And you do see him tackle those emotions slowly throughout the story. This game is one of my top 3 games of all time. It was a much needed game in 2020 and an absolute gem to experience
I mean… look at samurai Jack.. he’s composed. Yet he has a lot of character to him.
The intro music and the way the title drops riding through a beautiful open landscape saturated in such vibrant colour and detail always gives me goosebumps.
You won't even be able to hear the game over the PS4 reciting the JFK airport musical.

Put you console near an open window. When you play at night, when it's colder, it really helps a lot. I discovered it myself with my PS4 PRO when I was tired with jet engine sound while playing FFVIIR

@Chris Johansen I do love good writing in my video games,but as long as it's not Disney star wars bad then it doesn't ruin the experience,so even if the writing is meh,it's ok,everything else seems great.

@@ianmcneely2446 Agreed. One of the most "alive" open worlds I've played, with tons to explore. And I love the whole system of unlocking music tracks via finding them ingame and downloading it via the phone. And the diff points of interests and taking selfies/pics of them. And the drone gameplay is awesome. I need to replay it sometime soon.
Irrapture x Yeah, the ability to listen in to other people’s phone and text conversations really added to the immersion, like each person really had a life.
One thing that really caught my eye during a recent preview - and I'm so, so glad that it lands in the final release and resonated with you - was the use of diegetic elements like wind and animals to guide the player throughout the world instead of slapping a big fat Go Here icon on-screen at distances, actually using your eyes to interface with the game world. It's nice to see Breath of the Wild finally make an influence on modern, mainstream open-world design.
Between that influence coming through and games like Death Stranding trying to make simple movement mechanics interesting, I'm really interested to see where games go in the next five or ten years. We've spent years making talented artists and world designers create beautiful open worlds and then pairing them with gameplay that regularly means the player just ignores them, staring at the Go Here Icon.
Skill Up: "I took so many screen shots"

This game is truly the BEST open-world title to come out since New Vegas or the OG release of Skyrim back in 2011! Most definitely what was needed within the open-world action genre.... that shit was most definitely getting old. Assassins what?? Creed?! Weren't they some early 00s Christian Rock band?? Ya that's what's gonna be happening now that Ghost of Tsushima is out
Youlo King where as I haven’t played BotW (although I’ve played all the other LoZ games), RDR2 , & the Witcher 3 were nothing overly special to me. Great fucking games, don’t get me wrong, they were class acts all the way, but honestly they didn’t have anything I hadn’t done before, it was just done BETTER than the others. I meant Ghost was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise perfected & overly reproduced genre.
Skill Up & ACG are the ones that restored my faith in reviews. Thank you man for your professionalism and integrity 👍🏻. I'm gonna be enjoying this masterpiece checking every inch of the map till Cyberpunk drops
They do a very good job sure. Buttt I always have my question marks with reviewers who get an early copy. In the game of youtube reviews the early you are the better of course. Who wants a review 2-3 weeks after release ? Nobody except dedicated fans. So reviewers who get an early code might be a bit more lenient towards a game. If you shit on it you will be black listed and never get an early review code of their company again...Thus never an early review. Seeing what I'm going with this ? Best case scenario no early copies FOR NOBODY.
I doubt they would let this fact influence their judgement much as both were still fairly critical in aspects. Still it's a great game for sure.
Pretty much the only two I watch - their combined opinion is the only meta you need. F U metacritic!
@@davevd9944 It's a real problem for sure but in my opinion you can only counter that by following a reviewer longer term and check if they are true to their word. But even then, you will disagree with every reviewer at some point.
@@hkr667 Owh they're one of the best and most honest out there for sure. I just always stay cautious. Especially Karak doesn't get it.

I think Jin’s character being flat is reflective of his samurai training to block out emotion
With how they made this game to stick their Japanese heritage, having a cool badass character would have clashed with that
I like how his actions speak louder than any charismatic words
The combat is so awesome in this game. The point you made about “enemies waiting their turn” is something I actually didn’t experience. I set the game to hard at the start and they don’t give a shit. Multiple spear men will go after you at the same time so positioning and rolling becomes essential especially due to the extra damage. Enemy types is also great. I especially liked the straw hat ronin. They fight you w katanas and have very different movement styles to the Mongolians.

I remember getting my PS4 for Christmas in 2014. I got a PS4 which included destiny with it, and I had asked for infamous second son as well. I opened it on Christmas Day and was excited to play both.
Except the PSN servers got hacked Christmas Day by lizard squad meaning I couldn’t play destiny, so I spent two days straight playing infamous. Finished the story twice, both good and evil, got all the upgrades and overall had a fantastic time. It was a great game with a lot of care put into it and ultimately just was a lot of fun to play. If this game is just as good or even better than infamous, then I’m in for a treat.
The inFamous Second Son gameplay was so much fun. I liked the variety of powers we got compared to previous inFamous games. Especially given that smoke and light powers felt unique compared to what we have in the mainstream superhero genre. Sucker Punch is just great at designing fun gameplay and they proved themselves again with Ghost.
You weren't missing a thing by not being able to play Destiny. That game was garbage, not hot garbage like TLOU2 but still.
EXACT same thing happened to me. Screw you Lizard Squad😭😭
I've played through Second Son 4 times. Such a good game. I'm sure this game will be good fun too.
The "Generic" story I am much looking forward to. I'd hate for them to try to be unique to the point of misunderstanding the classic samurai story.
It will definitely be better than infamous 2nd son and could arguably in the top10 ps exclusives
