All ghost hunting shows aside, Sucker Punch's Ghost of Tsushima is a masterclass in postcard visuals, tangent Japanese culture and open spaces in an open-world games. But, can it keep up with the witching big people?
Here's a snippet:
"Having access to a map for direction and situational awareness, in addition to a countdown in metres, diminishes the impact of incorporating the environment and its inhabitants and history into the very core of how it all plays and moves. The same could be said of birds and other animals guiding you towards points of interest – the either-or approach, kind of having a readout but not. The addition of traditional flourishes is at odds with the thematic weight behind the beautiful presentation, and this applies to quite a lot of Ghost of Tsushima when you’re not sticking to its three Act story and various Tales.
This is to say that you can often see the seams, a Shrine to discover for the sake of another Shrine to discover, where the rewards err more on the side of pure static 1 of X collectibles rather than meaningful elements on par with the dramatic tension on hand. The exception here being locations to discover that let Jin and the player compose Haikus, reflecting on emotion through poetry, scenery, and meditation."
TNS: "Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on PC is one of the best ports we've seen in recent years from one of the best action-adventure games ever."
Ghost of Tsushima PC vs PS5, best settings and more in the Digital Foundry tech review.
Playing this at a locked 175 fps on an OLED ultra wide at max settings is truly awe inspiring. A great way to replay this classic.
Sweet! Glad to see it make the jump. Hopefully the PSN requirement doesn’t put too many people off. I think it’s only if you plan to play the Legends mode. It’s bullshit, but at least you can access the main game without making a PSN profile if that bothers you. I know on PC everyone’s sick of everyone trying to push their own launchers and shit.
CG writes: The question we’re asking is, has Sucker Punch’s just released stealth-action game Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on PC earned over £18 million in revenue on release week via the Steam platform alone (also available via the Epic Games Store)?
"also available via the Epic Games Store"
I'm pretty sure Epic Games Store is available in over 190 countries and 30 territories. So anyone that said that this game was not available in them was just lying.
I'm so shocked by games journalists and fauxragers lying. Really shocked. I do pity them though. I can't imagine going through life with such anger... at everything.
Is that pic ingame? If it is then the plot must involve dimensional travel. This game suddenly went to infinity and beyond!
how was this approved? Ghost of Cyberpunk? Cyberpunk of Tsushima?
LOL!! What does that thumbnail pic have to do with GoT?
