Finally some footage of how the game is MEANT to be played. So many combat videos show people just sprinting from enemy to enemy spamming kunai, sprint attacks, spam rolling all over the place, never using ripostes, never switching stances and just showing no control whatsoever over Jin. So many people just aggressively spam out movements and attacks which is constantly cancelling animations. You take your time in combat and actually let animations finish.
@@loveliestfawn Playing aggressive and using tools can still look cohesive and stylish. I'm talking about people that spam the same exact thing while clumsily sprinting full speed from enemy to enemy never even switching stances.
What a load of BS. This game can be played any way you want. Why did the developer provide so many options? Why the hell is this pinned? Gate keeping assholes.
I can go from perfect parry to perfect parry on nearly every enemy in the game. I can jump the brutes sweeps, spear guy sweeps, stay aggressive w/shieldmen, parry Ronin into oblivion....but that fucking poke from the spear guys. I cannot get the timing of that shit to save my life.
I guess I have the automatic block as long as I'm attacking.. I never get hit with the spear.. I'm still at the beginning of act 2 just been exploring and fighting.. I've gotten extremely skilled in the combat I've mastered switching stances quickly and fluently once I unlock all the abilities this game may be too easy by the end
God the spearman are annoying af in the legends mode 😭 I’ll be parrying and dodging blocks from like 10 enemies just for a spearman to poke me and I’ll die
bruh same, sometimes I get a perfect dodge but most of the times I just Wind Heavy their will to fight into the orbit with the third wind stance upgrade because it's safer
Those cannon dudes are grass A assholes. They'll spam that shit for days and if you get too close they'll knock you in the air and THEN shoot you while you can do nothing. Not even taking into account their team killing as pictured.
I love how not only Jin is progressing throughout the game to become a warrior without realizing you are also progressing to become a warrior also! Game makes you feel so immersed
I was so appalled at my own lack of skill on my first play through I’ve started over immediately, intent on mastering that dodge/parry ripost timing. Am loving it all over again but you’ve set the bar for my third play through.
@@batperson3532 it’s 60 fps swings but i meannnn. still this game is MILESSSSSSSS better than anything Ubisoft could produce. Valhalla’s a good game though.
Duuuude this is some sick shit, truly showcasing the spirit of a Samurai. I bought GoT last night and I’m about to play it. I’ve watched plenty of tips videos and such and hands down this is the best combat I’ve seen, better than trailers or other RUclipsrs. Could watch you for hours man!
I play most of the game with stealth, not raising an alarm and remaining in the shadows but i enjoy going sword to sword and killing enemies slowly. The dodge/parry you have is pretty amazing.
Ik this is 1 year ago comment but I usually do both as of now (did not beat the game yet) Whenever im with some side characters i would mostly go to my ghost side of things (stealth killing and becoming a coward was nessesary for the sake of tsushima) and then whenever im with lord shimura and other samurais i usually hide my ghost side and fight with honor When yuna said to bend my honor, it wasn't that bad Was able to have fun with doing stand-offs and stealth
That is nice. I hate when something clearly is going the other direction and some dumbass tracking mechanic spins tge enemy around in his animation to smack you in the face.
@@SomeUnkindledAsh That happens a lot of with the giant guys you could roll away and unless you stun lock them they they will randomly start tracking you.
This is how I like to play. Controlling the stances and not rushing the combat. It just looks more realistic and baddass. After a year of having this game I am still in my first playthrough. I try not to rush and appreciate the game fully. It´s such a masterpiece. I never use my ghost abilities during combat and just walk into enemy camps. In my opinion it is a more immersive experience.
Great Game and Great Gameplay Video! Serenity, Aggressiveness, and tools for his advantage he used in this gameplay. I started to play this game two days ago, and I’m already hooked to it. I haven’t been this excited to play a game since the First Batman Arkham Asylum.
Im currently playing this game for the first time and so far Im absolutely loving it. I keep finding myself wandering completely out of the way just to find a fight and explore
I appreciate this gameplay as my focus is to master the swordplay as well. You rarely used his special abilities and went with sword vs sword. I don't really use Ghost abilities either and walk into every camp ready for that face to face.
This dude played like he got Marshall art foreal. The point of fighting is efficient, less damage to yourself, create perfect distance, and unpredictable. He's done all that and some. Nice work.
For some reason I never got the hang of the perfect dodging. It never even occurred to me to dodge backwards either. I always went to the sides,then countered. I guess my brain thought if I dodge backwards and then try to strike,the spear will still get me. I was a boss at perfect parry though. Plus it looks dope.
Nice, I’m having a blast just running around with my horse and fighting random groups of enemies, the combat is extremely satisfying to play, the kill animations are so freaking good
I was gonna say.... Everyone makes this game sound more fun than it really is. It gets repetitive and annoying everytime I slash an enemy and his entire body gets doused in blood with a default animation. It's not very realistic or satisfying after a while. Gore should have occurred more naturally but instead you have to spam the same specific moves to dismember people
Can’t wait to continue playing this game on ps5, purposely stopped at the beginning of act 2, on the ps4 i was in awe, on how the game looks so beautiful, but it would be much more beautiful on the ps5
I swear I will invest in a PS5 just because of this game. The fact that you can use different combat styles that you can use interchangeably is freaking awesome! And this game is freaking awesome!!!
This is fairly accurate aside from the backspins and the stabbing. Generally Samurai would cut each other or their enemy’s up until one bleeds out or cannot fight anymore.
I have the series x man😭 I’m telling you I’ve wanted to switch just for this game. It looks just breathtakin.. I love watching the Amazin gameplay tho❤️
Literally all i want now, is a mode where you can simply just oneshot enemies nonmatter what. That would TRULY make me feel like the most powerful Samurai in the Land.
@@iSpeciaIist I thought it was the coolest looking set ruined by a comical 3rd sword that serves no purpose and it doesn't match the hilt to any sword kit other than the Sakai one. Makes no sense.
@@DrummahMike It's a shame because the ghost armour is one of the best in the game, but seeing Jin with 2 samurai blades in cut scenes is slightly annoying
@@k.masteri8749 yeah well they could have had the clan symbol on the cape or something other than having a third sword on your back that you don't use. Its utterly ridiculous.

Kills the mood
That’s why I kill them first
And then you experience rage that Khorne himself would envy.

This is what i call “gameplay”. Awesome timing and used every combat mechanics. Great job!!!
thanks!

Yes! I have never been so content in just enjoying the fighting mechanics of a game
Imagine what The Ghost could do if he was in Mortal Kombat 11.
This has to be done!
He’d get destroyed
Not much
He would be shot dead with projectile spam within seconds after an incredibly cinematic intro
The Ghost vs. The God of War.
Game Of The Year!

Assassin's creed Valhalla's combat looks so bad after playing this game.

Bro. Valhalla combat already looked awful.
@@batperson3532 it’s 60 fps swings but i meannnn. still this game is MILESSSSSSSS better than anything Ubisoft could produce. Valhalla’s a good game though.
They ruined the franchise after Unity
@@shannonantonio2106 bro what? Origins was one of their best games. And Valhalla is a pretty good ass game too. Y’all are tripping fr.

Dont compare this masterpiece to Assassins Creed

Did the exact opposite. I stand-offed every single patrol and every location without using stealth unless I absolutely had to.
Ik this is 1 year ago comment but
I usually do both as of now (did not beat the game yet)

When yuna said to bend my honor, it wasn't that bad
Was able to have fun with doing stand-offs and stealth
The best part about this game's combat is the Attack Commitment. Enemies don't turn midway through their attack and hit you.
What do you mean by that ?
That is nice. I hate when something clearly is going the other direction and some dumbass tracking mechanic spins tge enemy around in his animation to smack you in the face.
Have you ever fought Ryuzo?

Played like a true Assassin. Timing and style
thanks man
you mean with no Honor lol
Scoring Foreign Zuko: That’s rough buddy
Finally another person who switches stances on each type of enemy. I accept you for actually playing the game right
Im currently playing this game for the first time and so far Im absolutely loving it. I keep finding myself wandering completely out of the way just to find a fight and explore
I love using the water stance shield break move as a finisher even though that's not what it's used for. It just looks cool
Excellent job with that gameplay ! I love it ! :)
Never thought I’d see a channel name fit more with the game in the video like this
YOOO tempsss check me out too bro! this guy is great
Abiöla A Dang right he’s great
Just started the game today, this is going to be a hell of a trip.
When that soldier shot his own guy o started laughing so hard
He shot his own chief lol
For some reason this game actually gets me really hype just from sheer combat alone with fire music which most games don't have
I appreciate this gameplay as my focus is to master the swordplay as well. You rarely used his special abilities and went with sword vs sword. I don't really use Ghost abilities either and walk into every camp ready for that face to face.
Checkout my combat vids 👌🏾
@@terrellhagans7687 dude i saw a couple of your videos , they were great
@@Abhishek-tw8fr thanks bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾💯
Before I even started watching the video your name stood out to me man. Really cool Name
I really enjoy your patience while handling the opposition, Creedless good job.
O melhor combate que eu já vi, nada exagerado, sempre fluido
God damn this is so cool I love everything about this play style
Im so getting this game now, it's combat looks insane
Very smooth! I love it.
That was beautiful! I need to practice a lot more with this game tbh
This game is absolutely brilliant... The combat system here is simply on another level, than anything else
This reminds me of the old "pwnage" videos of 2005-06 RUclips. I miss those days...
I really like your fighting style, it looks natural, keep it UP 👍
Absolutely love this game. My GOTY
Finally some video, when someone is actually fighting in a way for what this combat was made for :D nice dude, wp
This dude played like he got Marshall art foreal. The point of fighting is efficient, less damage to yourself, create perfect distance, and unpredictable. He's done all that and some.
Nice work.
Wow! Watching you play is like watching a samurai film! Good Work!
Of course these were flawless. No dogs. I see what you did there…. ;)
Closest I'll ever get to feeling like a Hidden Leaf shinobi.
Mighty fine shredding my good man!!
I believe it was you who taught the Jedi how to deflect blaster bolts.
Damn.. that was pure poetry in motion. Katajikenai 🙏🏽
Seeing this kind of awesome controlled gameplay makes me wish that SP's next game setting would be like Lady Snow Blood
For some reason I never got the hang of the perfect dodging. It never even occurred to me to dodge backwards either. I always went to the sides,then countered. I guess my brain thought if I dodge backwards and then try to strike,the spear will still get me. I was a boss at perfect parry though. Plus it looks dope.
I forgot how damn clean the animations are in this game
Nice, I’m having a blast just running around with my horse and fighting random groups of enemies, the combat is extremely satisfying to play, the kill animations are so freaking good
It gets old I can assure you. 24 hours play was enough for me.
I was gonna say.... Everyone makes this game sound more fun than it really is.
It gets repetitive and annoying everytime I slash an enemy and his entire body gets doused in blood with a default animation. It's not very realistic or satisfying after a while.
Gore should have occurred more naturally but instead you have to spam the same specific moves to dismember people
Damn this is flawless. Have you seen Gbg at this 😂 that’s next level gameplay
I usually charge right at the archers.. do a quick roll towards them and attack swiftly they go down with one or two quick strikes Everytime
This was clean homie
Love the combat in this game.
THIS sells games
Truly, sucker punch really knocked it out of the park
I absolutely love Ghost Of Tsushima. I just beat new game plus, and I cannot wait for the Directors Cut!
Beautiful execution
I know slaying Mongols is fun but battles with Ronins are a lot more fun. It feels like you're recreating an actual Samurai film scene.
You realize this is Miyamoto Musashi level legendary right?
He’s not playing on Lethal+ though.
I hope the industry keeps a trend going with Samurai and Ninja style games, Sekiro, Nioh 1&2, and Ghost of Tsushima are just too good
I love playing games like this jedi survivor feels just as good
''A samurai must always fight with patience.....and disciplnine even when his opponent resorts to trickery''
Definitely the best game I played this year
Can’t wait to continue playing this game on ps5, purposely stopped at the beginning of act 2, on the ps4 i was in awe, on how the game looks so beautiful, but it would be much more beautiful on the ps5
Very clean.
I thought I was pretty alright at the game.. Until I saw this.
Samurai must fight like this.
Can you tell what is the armor you use on the last kill in the video?
Great work by the way 👏👏
Awesome brother. 👍
The ghost's armor is incredible
I swear I will invest in a PS5 just because of this game. The fact that you can use different combat styles that you can use interchangeably is freaking awesome! And this game is freaking awesome!!!
So excited for the pc launch so I can play!!
In love ❤️ with the gameplay
This is fairly accurate aside from the backspins and the stabbing. Generally Samurai would cut each other or their enemy’s up until one bleeds out or cannot fight anymore.
Those things he's throwing remind me of the batarangs from Arkham games.
The graphics I this are amazing
Good job. Now if the Witcher’s 3 combat had been this good with its storyline and characters, then wow.
Man I'm dying to play this game. About time Sony release it on pc. Fingers crossed
can you do more advanced fighting videos. not enough of these videos.
_This isn't your normal everyday fighting, this is ADVANCED fighting_
Flawless kills makes you feel like a fuckin God of Death
How come there are no white lines when you do stand-off or heavenly strike?
Can't wait for new game +
It’s the fact that at 8:19 your helmet is a different colour to your armour and I will hold this grudge for a while
I wonder if there is a way to do the Dance of Wrath WHILE you activate your Ghost Stance?
dude how did you turn off the white lines at 3:47 when you sliced in the stand off?
I have the series x man😭 I’m telling you I’ve wanted to switch just for this game. It looks just breathtakin.. I love watching the Amazin gameplay tho❤️
I always enter each confrontation as if my life depends on it. Lol 😆 I even have my own controller stance for stand off , and it actually works 😆
Nice job 👍
Welp imma go buy it now.

You're playing most perfect play for the most perfect combat system in video games ever, btw which Charms do you use?
