Title: Ghosts of Tsushima
Post by: BojackHorsefella on May 15, 2020, 08:40:18 PM
Usually I don't get "hyped" for new releases, but this looks insanely fun and good:

Really hope it lives up to these early impressions.

I genuinely may break my rule for this. I'll take the Samurai Red Dead/Shadows of Mordor looking game IMMEDIATELY, please.

Yeah, this one's been on my radar since the first previews came out last year. I can't wait. Just hoping the game doesn't take up a billion GB lol

Finally got around to watching that 18 minute gameplay video and yep: it's a confirmed first day purchase for me. Samurai cinema mode? Can play in Japanese with (I'm assuming) subtitles? I can't wait. PS4 (more than likely) going out in a blaze of glory here.

Opening sequence was great, and the graphics are as amazing as advertised. Didn't make it much further because I fell asleep lol. I should be able to take a deeper dive into it today though haha

Combat is definitely fun, and can't wait to upgrade Jin further to add more stealth elements to his arsenal.

Photo mode in this game is really deep and addicting.

looks like I may have to break down and buy this one.  LOU2 was my last big PS4 game I thought, maybe not.

Really like the Ishikawa guy in the early part of the story, the one with the bow...seems like my kind of smartass.

Spoiler
Ishikawa: "How's the bow feel?"
Jin: "Like it was made for me."
Ishikawa: "It wasn't."

So I finally snagged my USB drive and hooked it up to the PS4 to grab some of the pics I've taken so far. The RDR2 and Spider-Man threads will also be getting some additions at some point today lol.

About a month in and I finally got to Act II  :o

Loving this game so far and the twists that have come with it. This is easily one of the most beautiful games I've played so far on the PS4.

One thing that would make this game even more amazing: outfit loadouts. You acquire a lot of different types of armor and charms throughout the game and it'd be so much easier if you could assign outfits for the different scenarios you'll run into as you move further along.

Big update dropping October 16, including New Game+ mode and loadouts (which is long overdue).

Finished this game a couple weeks ago, might need to go back through it again. :)
