REVIEW : Ghost of Tsushima (PS4)
At the beginning of the current generation of PlayStation, Sucker Punch Studio brought us Infamous: Second Son, a fun superhero game in the open world. Now, towards the end of the period, just before we move to PlayStation 5, the studio chose to take us back to the island in Japan during the Mongol invasion with Ghost of Tsushima, in the first game of this span that takes place in ancient Japan which incorporates A huge and accurate open world. But does that mean it’s interesting and fun to play? Keep reading and find out.
The game begins with an epic fight on the banks of Kedma between the samurai armies and the Mongol invasion as you play the hero of the game Gin Sakai. After a tough fight that sees the decline of the samurai and the capture of your aunt, the leader of the island, you wake up and are treated by a fighter named Jonah. You make a failed effort to save your uncle once again from the Mongol leader, one of the descendants of Genghis Khan named Cotton Khan, and you now open up to the wonderful land of Tsushima as you attempt to gather and strengthen aids to save your uncle from slavery and put End the Mongol attack before you cover his entire island and call your home
The main focus of the story and the most interesting part of it is Jin and his relationship with the rest of the characters, especially with his uncle and villains.
The game is an open-world game that includes main missions, where you help your friends to gain allies, and side missions, where you help people during the occupation like a women’s village abused by a farmer in the costume of a samurai or a man whose daughter was seized on one of the Mongols’ ships. The map also covers special missions that centre on a legend from Tsushima Island that lead to difficult boss battles that gain your new skill. Also, the map is full of Horizon: Zero Dawn -style Mongolian forts, offenders and Mongols at crossroads holding captives who, if rescued, will give you artefacts or event information on the map, and ventures that will grow Gin’s combat abilities.
Everywhere you go on your horse, which you picked at the start of the game and gave it its name. You can modify the look of your horse seat along with the look of gin, by finding words in various areas of the island, accumulating tribal flags and exchanging them for a new saddle, gathering wildflowers around the island and selling them in new colours in one of my villages.
All the movements are displayed on the huge map of the game and there are many. Only the first portion of the game had a huge amount of activities and they were all fun, and to assist you to swallow into the game world, the developers attempted to narrow down the UI view, and instead of marking with a map on the screen every moment, the wind leads you to your target, mechanics maybe Will bother some players.
Ghost of Tsushima’s battle mode is quite manageable but very distinct and fun. Your main weaponry is the sword, with which you fight for a normal, strong blow and block against various types of Mongols – there are archery Mongols, soldiers with 2 swords, with spears, with slugs and shields, and the more Mongolian leaders you destroy in the game, the more warfare techniques you will learn.
Besides a sword, Jin is equipped with a dagger with which he secretly kills enemies, an archery sniper on enemies with very realistic and accurate physics, even when you achieve the larger arc that allows you to shoot fire arrows, and as Jin’s legend continues to grow, He learns to use additional combat accessories that help him eliminate the enemy like Kunai, smoke bombs, diversion bells and grenades, your use of these tools you can, of course, improve along with all the other abilities of Gin through the upgrade points you get from completing missions and increasing G’s legend Yin Bai.
Ghost of Tsushima not only respects the true history of the island, but also the general history of the samurai media, whether it’s the shooting angles, English and Japanese dubbing for the figures, and concentrating on one samurai versus slim chances, evocative of the samurai films of yesteryear A display mode inspired by fabulous director Akira Kurosawa, who transforms the entire game show into black and white with a dirty effect, is excellent for old movie buffs among us
But even if you do choose to keep the game’s regular graphics, this is one of the most impressive games of this generation. The light, feel and reflection effects are true to life some of the most stunning scenes Ever seen so far on the PlayStation 4, even more so than most of the views in Horizon: Zero Dawn. Combine with all this great animation of the characters, both in body and face, precise and heartfelt dubbing, and a breathtaking soundtrack, and this is without a dilemma one last exclusive game for Sony’s successful console
