    Ghost of Tsushima has one flaw and that’s console exclusivity.

    The story length is perfect. Side quests don’t drag for too long or get done before you realize. Getting 100% was satisfying but not grueling.

    After 100 hours of gameplay I’ve never faced a game-breaking bug. Only a couple that I laughed off.

    I legit forgot my cousin was sleeping on his bed behind me on multiple occasions and woke him up with my reactions. Also forgot I am a human in need of food and sleep after several hours of nonstop gameplay.

    Loosely based on a real story; including an invasion force that decimated the Island’s legendary protectors, family in danger, conflict with self and conflict with tradition, losing one’s identity for the good of one’s people, unlikely allies and believable character progression.

    Incredibly satisfying combat. Good enemy variety not only with how many different types of enemies there are but also how different each and every one feels to fight. Satisfying but not overly difficult boss fights. Rewarding quests. Good RPG elements that don’t take over the game. Incredible voice acting. I could go all night listing everything this game does right and only need an hour to explain everything it does wrong. Almost everything in the game feels like it has a purpose. And nothing in the game feels incomplete.

    You can take a screenshot at any point in the game and it would make a beautiful wallpaper. The visuals strike, animations flow and sceneries make you stop to admire them.






  • Forager did it for me. No prior knowledge needed. No hardcore focus. No nothing really. Perfect after coming home all burnt-out, booting up while emptying your pockets, starting to play without much thought and realizing you’ve been at it for 5 hours straight and it’s midnight now, and you haven’t even changed clothes or had dinner.

    At least that’s how my experience went. It just flew so nicely.
