“It’s basically Assassins Creed, but better, in Japan, and without any of the bullshit micro transactions”
Man I felt that
Nah
Assassin’s Creed lost it’s way a while ago.
Assassins Creed has lost the Assassin part long ago.
Ubisoft took the "Assassin" out of Assassin's Creed.
Michael Figueroa Yeah Lol. Parkour and climb mechanics definitely need work. But overall it’s better.
OJ doesn’t get enough credit for being the most versatile actor ever
Versatile doesn't equate to good, but I agree
Agreed I loved his work in Dying Light & Alien Isolation 💯
Smokey 1419 why even bother commenting THAT? Lmfao
OJ is the unsung genius of these skits.
Give that man an Oscar
"Send your weakest warrior! That guy was too good! He beat the shit out of me!"
I LOL'ed so hard.
same LOOOL
Other Joe, the heart and soul of AJS
I replay that part multiple times I laugh so hard
sameeeee i fucking dieeeed
Kept getting smacked by enemies in this. Slip ups on my part.
Starts with Infamous
Ends with Ghost of Tsushima
Thank you Sucker Punch.
@Sam as in with the ps4 era.
Both home runs, eh?
@@livingminimumwage6359 Eeeeeh Second Son was more of an in field double rather than a home run.
A good game, dont get me wrong, but didn't quite live up to the 2 previous games.
@@dillonpanarello5242 sly cooper as well since sucker punch made the games
@@patrickkaranjeet5063 Oh hell yeah. I've been riding with SP since those games.
It’s kinda crazy how Sucker Punch helped start the PS4’s life cycle with Infamous Second Son & ends it with Ghost of Tsushima.
It’s almost poetic in a way.
Infamous second son....
Havent heard of that masterpiece in a long time
Even though I’m only 18 years old, I feel old just reading that comment.
Poetic? So kinda like the game itself
second sun still holds up too
@@hatsunemikufanboy absolutely! I played it again the other day for the first time in like 6 years, and it made me realize that it was truly ahead of its time.
"Send your strongest warrior" get kill.
"Send your weakest warrior, that guy was too good".
LMAO.
i fucking lost it when OJ said that
I died lol
To funny I laugh so hard 🤣
08:10 for that interaction.

im here for a PC review.. anybody?
Same lol
Who gives a fuk
@@MrIceman3200 the same thing applies to the pc as it does here... why would he do an entire new review? dumb
Yup ✌️
8.5/10
Ubisoft: "AsSAssInS cReEd wOn'T WoRK iN A sAMuRaI SeTtINg!!"
Jhin: Hold my sake!
The hillarious thing is the past two assassin's creed games weren't actually assassins. Odyssey and Valhalla aren't Assassin Creed games, at least not in the sense of you being a true assassin. Sure they make some attempt to try and tie it together but it's just not the same. And Japan has ninja, which are assassins and saboteurs by definition. So there's no reason for Assassins Creed to avoid Japan. Though now they'd need to make the game better than Ghost of Tsushima or at least on par with it, and I am very doubtful they could.
@@darkrite9000 They could do non assassin stuff just fine but the combat needs to be more realistic no more of these tanky as hell enemies for a samurai setting to feel right you and your enemies attacks need to be deadly only a few hits should kill them and you should be killed quickly from too many mistakes
I'm pretty sure Ubisoft never said that

Quidz comedian much?
KNIGHTMARESPAWN if that makes you feel better
Surprised he didn’t mention that the load times in this game are damn near nonexistent
Idk how they did it but it's crazy how fast it is fast traveling is something you're not scared to do.
Compressing and optimizing is how they did it
Yeah, it wasn't even took 5 second
Never got to properly read any of the loading tips/story tidbits because of it.
You know you have good load times when no one even remembers to think about the loading screens.
One of the most, if not the most, COMPLETE games released this year. Well done Sucker Punch!
It's incredible to me that we have to praise developers for finishing their game... That says a lot about the current state of the industry.
@@blairalexander3009Bad take
@@Ronin---- you saying that's a bad take is a bad take. Boom Roasted.

@@gonzalez6073 It beats the story not every thing, Tlou2 has better graphics
@@10yearsinthejoint363 that's all that's better tho.
Did joe just give a badass seal of approval, but miss out on saying “This game earned my badass seal of approval” 😭
lol, he's to busy praising this game
I think he praised it so much he made up for not saying it lol.
It looks like they rushed the whole review a little bit, i'm guessing due to them moving.
He did give the seal he just didn’t say it
Ronin 90 yeah that’s what he’s saying
That moment when you “slaughter” a leader and completely decapitate them only to have their headless body start crawling away and “end suffering” appears... “Hey Joe, wanna play a zombie game?!”
Hmm a GoT zombie add on/separate game would be cool. Similar to Red Dead undead nightmare.
@@yourarchnemesis8453 that would be legndary dlc like blood and wine level
@Super JLK lol yea happened to me. His head was rolling away and there he was crawling away in the opposite direction
YYYYYES... I was thinking yokai, but that'd be dope af too
This just happened in my game.
This game definitely has the fastest loading screens I’ve ever seen. They’re practically non-existent at points.
You're not kidding. I have a base PS4 with its original hard drive. I can barely finish reading the tips in English, and flat out cannot get halfway through it in Japanese (I'm moderately literate lol)
@Von_D imagine a ps5 is instantaneously
@@inyourgranmaass3605 I fast traveled on one side of the map to the other. Less than 5 seconds
Just finished the game, and for me it's a 10/10, no doubt the best game of ps4 era.
And not just the game itself the narrative is pure art.
The most impressive part is that it's a complete/finished game and no micro bullsht.
Games like this give me hope that after all this industry isn't all about money.
What makes this game better than most these days is it released finished.
The rest is just a really really really really big bonus.
Wish more studios would follow the path these sony developers seem to be good at going down. Which is delivering good, finished games.
That's pretty high praise! It's better than the Witcher 3?
@@ty_-je8wf I mean that depends on what you’re into more as these are drastically different games. My personal opinion, I’d say this is better hands down.
Even the Dlcs were complete this game is great
@@ty_-je8wf I'd def say its better than witcher 3, the only game that can compete with got is rdr2 witcher 3 had the most boring and dull protagonist ever and the combat mechanics were clunky asf that the fighting was a chore for me but in got I wanna keep doing combat because of the smooth mechanics.
Joe loves this game so much that he’s willing to get copyrighted
I'm barely starting the video.
Can you explain?
@@chingatu6644 The Ghost of Tsushima theme plays in the background
Nah this time he didn't talk bad about TLOU2 while high praising Ghost of Tsushima, both title games of Sony Entertainment. They might let it slide. 😂
@Goddess Of Sin but do you really think youtube and the copysriking companys care about that?
@@xBox360BENUTZER the companies that make the games do, they want people to stream their games and make reviews about it, they know that sells copies.

Send in the werewolf!
I absolutely love this game. It's like SP actually listened to the top five complaints of every gamer and fixed them. This game just works, it's fun as hell and I've spent hours just wandering around the map. I have no desire to rush trough it or make it to the next objective.
10:38 is the best insult I've ever heard.
That was so unexpected
Or is it a compliment? lol

@@jw7268 that reply was retarded
@@vagabond4576 Still got 9 likes. I'm high on potenuse. Did you just create 2 accounts to shit on me? lmao.
Ghost of tsushima reminds me of the old days when you would buy a game and get the full game not half of it cause you need a season pass or dlc or whatever bull they add for money. I miss the old days when i would only have to spend $60 for an entire game n not also pay 100 more for better gear etc.
Well to be honest a lot of Single player games have been released in the last decade with full content: God of War, Red Dead Redemption, Horizon Zero Dawn, Last of Us 1&2, Jedi Fallen Order, Shadow of the COlossus, The last guardian, Batman Arkham series, Tomb Raider, AC Odissey, Skyrim, GTA, Bloodborne. Some of them had DLC that actually expanded the game. In the case of AC Odyssey people actually complained that it was too big... Obviously if you look only at Multiplayer games that actually depend on constant money grabbing, then you are looking at the horrible part of gaming. But for me, that I only play SP games, PS4 is fucking heaven.
@Jonny B Oh shit lol, I forgot Spiderman and Ghost of tsushima. Also, The witcher and the Souls series. The DLC in every one of those games actually expand the game. Each Witcher DLC could be a single game on their own. People begged for DLC for God of war and Fallen Order. The bad fame of the DLC came with all MP games (Fighting, Shooters, Sports, and Battle Royale).
@@charlyrob7334 agreed. Are you listening EA
I fucking love the witcher 3 expansion you even get your own fucking manor and the b&w soundtrack was amazing.
Well said
Game of the year in my opinion!👍
definitely
It should’ve been 😭
Award for best samurai game of the year goes to Last of Us 2
Also in Joe's opinion
@@joju5849 best racing game, The Last of Us Part 2
I've never actually looked forward to a NG+ until Ghost of Tsushima.
OJ - “Send your weakest warrior!” Had me in stitches 😂😂
Minute?
camello321 go from 8:10!mate
Same XD
Brilliant
That guy was too good lol
OJ’s whole “Send your weakest warrior, that guy was TOO good...beat the shit outta me!” thing is the reason I’m leaving a like. Lmao!!
I was just about to write this exact same comment, that was hilarious!
We all had the same mindset man!!! 😂😂😂... Was laughing so hard my stomach started hurting when he said that 🤣😎. Classic reviews, love angry Joe show
Swear I was finna say the same thing!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Subscribed and liked because of this xD i can't stop laughing.
It’s funny: around the same time this got its PC port released, Ubisoft announced Assassins Creed Shadows. Now I’m genuinely interested to see how Ubisoft will royally fuck to what Sucker Punch damn near perfected.
Facts, AC Shadows is totally fckd after pc port
Yeah it will be pretty embarrassing that this game would outpace ACS
I returned to this game on my PS5, as I abandoned it previously mid-2nd act, with Director's cut updrade and it blew me away. It is absolutely 10 out of 10 game in its final form. Lots of issues mentioned in the original review were fixed and next gen upgrade makes it amazing experience. I still believe it was 10 out of 10 game even at release but now it is one of best games ever made.
Agreed, it’s amazing on ps5. Absolute must buy if you own a ps5. I tried to play this initially on my ps4 but couldn’t get into it, gave directors cut a chance after getting a ps5 and now it’s one of my favorite games
The Assassin’s Creed setting we wanted but never got.
Honestly, i don't think it would have been this good if we had.
@@tek87 Yeah, i agree with you
Forced AC narrative with hidden blade? Yeah no thank you lol. AC series should've ended a long time ago.
The AC series was all about being a ninja in places that didn't have ninjas. If they had a Japanese setting it would have just been a ninja game.
Assassins Creed has been shit since origins sadly
Game Journos: *Noooo! You can't make a samurai game if you're not Japanese!*
Sucker Punch: Yes.
Japanese: Yes.
Noooooo!!! You can't voice a Japanese person, if you're not Japanese!!!
Only real gripe with the game is bad syncing when in Japanese dub. But other than that its perfect
Did ppl legit try to raise something over that?
@@wargrizzero5158 In this day and age? It is highly believable.
@@wargrizzero5158 they genuinely did and they were compering it to TLOU2 claiming that was a much better game 🤣
Just picked this game up on a black friday sale. 20 bucks and I got the directors cut. I made my new game on lethal difficulty and jumped in blind. This is the most fun I've had with a video game in a long time :D
Same i pick up this on black friday too. But i already platinum it when Ghost first release on my other account and sold it cause i bought wrong region.
Now i just platinum amazing Gow Ragnarok for 50hrs, im gonna platinum Ghost of Tsushima Director cut edition 😇
@@farihinhajimohdlisa9017 true that. Sony has been releasing masterpieces for every year now. From Ghost Of Tsushima , and TLOU(depending on your view) of 2020 to God Of War Ragnarok, and Horizon of which three of them i have already platinumed, only TLOU remains.
I just got it as well and have been drawn in. After three days last week of staying up until 2am with work the next morning I had to start limiting myself. What a phenomenal game.
lmaoooo same
i also got it on black friday
i was eyeing the game for awhile
i just finished it today, still have the expansions left
loved it so much
hell yeah man!
A little late to the party but I picked up a PS5 about a month ago, started playing this as my first game and was just blown away by the story, character development, and of course the art, absolutely beautiful. The combat, attention to detail were incredible. Seeing Jin clean his sword before re-sheathing it was incredible, also seeing him run this hands through the flowers as I rode on my trustee companion, seems like something I'd do. Just a piece of art work. The story had me tearing up at parts and I had to remind myself it's just a game LOL.
If you haven’t already, please play Director’s cut. its just as good as Tsushima
8:18 - "Send me your best warrior !"...... Dead
8:28 - "Send me your weakest warrior! That guy is too OP !"
That had me rolling 🤣
I laughed so hard when other Joe said this! 😂
It remains me the scene from Kung-fu Hustle movie
SEND YOUR WEAKEST WARRIOR!
This had me choking on laughter
Its typical OJ, the dude its the funniest on the show hand down. I want that quote on a shirt or something!
That earned my like, I was dying. "That guy was too good"
FRizy x “beat the shit outta me”
Funniest shit ever 😂😂😂
The moment Khan confronts the uncle about his nephew actions. I thought he was going to say “ we found my men stab in the butt” 😂
If it was me doing what I really wanted to do it would be: "My spearmen have found their brothers' spears shoved in their ass"
I hate the spearmen xD
Just beat the game, got emotional at the end, one of the most beautiful games I have played, Music was beyond epic and emotional, Story was Fantastic. this game was by far Game of the Year.
Sony: we must preserve our honor. (Japanese accent)
Sucker punch studios: i gotcha homie
Then, Sony a couple of weeks after the release: let's burn all the good will we got from the people with the Spidey exclusivity.
@@En7my was the other spider man game not also exclusive?
@@Ewan661 yeah I don't see how that's burning goodwill when it was exclusive in the first place
Am I the only that still the “I gotcha homie” in the Japanese accent?
@my father left me How’s that burn all the good will? Another Xbox fanboys throw exclusives = bad campaign.
Joe forgot to mention the loading screens in this game. They only take like 2 seconds!
Wait.... There's loading screens ??
@@daveo.1702 Yes but it not bad it take 2 seconds
@@daveo.1702 when you fast travel.
Fast travel is actually fast.
The director even said they made the loading screens longer so you could see the tips at all😂
I’ve literally just finished the game, and I’m binge-watching the reviews for the game. I’m truly astonished how this game didn’t get the game of the year from the “critics” it’s literally perfect it’s good in some places but that doesn’t take from the fact that it deserved it.
It truly deserves it, but it doesn't need it. So many people love this game and it was players choice, which means the players not critics know how good this game is. GOTY doesn't mean anything to me anymore since several games who wasn't nominated for GOTY has a game of the year addition to them 😂
Critics are morons....last of us 2 was their game of the year, many of them protested this game for cultural appropriation lol...bunch of clowns
Game critics,journs and Movie critics are all far left clowns, their opinions mean nothing.
literally what I’m doing right now, just finished the game bout to start iki island dlc but I need to take a moment after that ending😭😭
@@90daytrial75 Iki Island is fucking MEAN
This was one of the most addictive games I've ever played. It's been out for a year and I've completed everything on the map four times.
The gameplay loop was just perfect. Combat is a masterpiece. The loading is almost non-existent on ps5.
It's very poetic and beautiful how Sucker Punch was the one to kickoff the PS4's launch and send it off.
So true. Glad it wasn’t the last of us 2.
jakedizzle there was never a last of us 2!
Prob didn’t even play LOU2 or judged it before like joe and them
Except that infamous was barely a start for ps4 let alone a kickoff
I main on xbox but I loved ghost of Tsushima its one of the playstation exclusive that I wish xbox had aswell along with God of war.
8:25
OJ: "You tell 'em next time, 'SEND YOUR WEAKEST WARRIOR'. That guy was too good! He beat the shit out of me!'"
LMAO
LOL
angry joe looks so old now vs 7 years ago and so fat around his face
3RG LeafWigger bruh he’s hitting 40 and plays games all damn day he looks great for his age
Send in the werewolf!
Playing this game in Lethal Mode (especially from the start) has made the combat look and feel completely different (sword spongey) than when reviewers played it. That difficulty is now essential for making GoT one of the most immersive open world-melee combat games to ever release.
I completely agree, me and my buddy played the game at the same time and when we first saw Lethal, we jokingly told each other to start on the hardest difficulty and we'll tone it down. But when we found out that the mode wasn't bullshit, but completely fair and the problem was only how bad we were, we fell in love with Lethal mode and never turned it down even on the final boss. I wish more games would do this and incentivize learning the mechanics
Just playing the Iki Island expansion was a refreshing wakeup call for me with the more versatile enemies. I might have to check out that harder difficulty.
That intro skit was hilarious. Joe’s face at 2:34 was meme worthy
"A perfect end-cap to the ps4 era", these words sadden me just as they did for the ps3 era. Boys, were getting old.

Fun fact: if you walk slowly through the tall grass, he reaches his hand out and just glides it through the blades like on horseback. Phenomenal attention to detail.

Gladiator copy cat. Love that beginning of Gladiator where the Maximus travel to Elysium.
@@JoseMolina-jz9hh was about to say this. Both these games have so many little details
I'm having fun but idk about phenomenal attention to detail. U can walk and stand inside corpses. If u fall off a cliff not on ur horse from a high distance u die and respawn, if u fall from the same distance on ur horse then no damage at all. And the archers, when they're alone they should use a different verbal que than when they have all their friends and are yelling them to duck or whatever. " Doja DOJA!!!" Even when it's just me standing infront of his face lol
Yeah I noticed that too. I thought that was a nice touch
“send your weakest warrior, that guy was TOO good” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
8:30
Played through the whole game with my friend back when it came out and man it was the best gaming experience I've had in ages. And still can't believe how well it ran and looked on a base PS4
"Send your best warrior"

"Okay, maybe next time send your weakest warrior"
"That last guy was too good.."

*avoid the standoff, throw kunai
I laughed at that too
With Assassin's Creed Shadows now announced. I'm definitely going to compare it to this.
*Got the directors cut version on PS5 and holly shit I'm having a fucking blast.*
I really like Jin as a character. He says early on that, as a samurai, he was taught to control and suppress his emotions. That is why he's so stoic for most of the game.
However, if you pay attention, he does let some of his personality slip out every once in a while. I enjoy the moments where he gets relaxed enough to joke and banter with other characters.
Edit: typo
I found that to be such a well written subtle detail and but too easy to be lost on people rushing through the game and not taking it all in
It's charming in a weird, but sincere way. For example, when travelling back to the Trapper's House with "Matsu", Jin casually drops a dad joke about sharing a horse when "Matsu" tells him to stay close.
Yeah I agree Jin is great. I want a sequel but I'd be sad to no longer be playing as him.
my problem was just a glitch where my player moves sometimes by itlself idk could be my controller
I was all giddy when Jin and Yuna were drinking.
When they pulled out the leaf blower I lost it 😂
Same
😂😂😂
Ele Bee Stealth 💯
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Replaying this game at the moment, it’s got to be one of my all time favourites. Hoping that SP can give us a sequel or a new infamous title.
A “ghost of” series could potentially replace assassins creed for me.
I found Jin interesting...at least to me, i mean bro lost his friends, people, his home, his uncle was kidnapped and was worried something might happen, his old friend betrayed him and had to kill him. He has a good heart, cares about his people and does what he thinks is right even if it means fighting dirty at times and the fact that he embraces that he's the Ghost of Tsushima was a moment for me because at first he thought it was silly and some kind of myth now that the Mongols fear him, he just accepts it and embraces it because to him it's a sign of hope and his people are on his side no matter what. So far I'm loving the game.
I love how joe still puts in chessy skits. This is one of the last channels that still gives me early golden years TH-cam vibes
Bad friends podcast or red letter media would probably be up your alley, friend
you mean, back when Angry Video Game Nerd, Nostalgia Critic, Handsome Tom, 8-bit Mickey, Spoony, Linkara, Todd in the Shadows, iRate Gamer, Benzaie, Bennet the Sage, Marzgurl, the game Heroes, JewWario, JonTron and the Rest of Blistered Thumbs / Channel Awesome / TheGuyWithTheGlasses were a thing?

I can’t believe he didn’t talk about the fast travel. You click a destination, a load screen with a tip pops up, with a press X for next tip below it. I’ve never been able to see the next tip, barely enough time to read the tip that’s up there and your at your destination.
This game is so good in so many areas.
Lol right, the loads are so quick. I try to snack during loading screens and barely have any time in this game haha
@@steppin-razor I remember when I died, I was Instantly put back (I plat the game while playing lethal) to the checkpoint and was surprised by how fast everything loaded in the world.
Now I started playing AC:Odyssey for the first time yesterday on Nightmare and when I die I'm staring at the loading screen for 50 seconds.
It's amazing how certain developers understand how to build their game for the console platforms and others just dont even bother
Plus co op coming soon! I'll be right back
Right?! The load times for fast travelling are actually... Well. Fast!
The scariest glitch I found was cutting off a Mongol's head, only for his decapitated body to start crawling around
Very epic glitch, encountered that too haha
BRO, I SAW THAT! That was terrifying!
Bro, that also happened to me!
That happened to my friend
Yep, happened to me twice.
I love the dramatic music as the camera pans to display the samurai who was slain by the windy debris. It’s truly an Oscar-worthy performance, along with OJ’s versatile acting chops.
I’m happy to be a millennial and grow up in this ps4 generation. Im sad to see the ps4 generation end and sad to see this game end after I beat it but I am damn glad I got to experience this for myself. I played halo back on the 360 with my dad back in the day and when the ps4 came out we got it and hoped for the best and Sony freaking delivered. These past years have got to go down as the best years of video game history and some of the most fun, interesting, and inspiring years of my life. Thank you Sony, thank you Ghost of Tsushima, and thank you Sucker Punch for a perfect end of a phenomenal era🙏
Amen
Whatever their next game is on PS5, it will be great

Need help, how do you climb rocks? I know it says use the left analog but it doesn’t work when going upwards. It does work going downwards.
Tsushima, a land that would kill anyone with seasonal allergies in minutes.
Amazed the game didn’t end like War of the Worlds with the mongols succumbing to their lack of natural immunity to allergies.
Probably didn't stay long enough to get allergies.
Historically it was the storms that defeated the Mongols or the Japanese literally seeing it as divine intervention.
you got that line from honest games trailer
Dramachine oh absolutely, it’s one of the few lines they’ve written that had me dying.
I was thinking that also. What an embarrassing death too. Killed by pampas pollen. Even worse, Benadryl is a few centuries away.
Lord Shimura: War....war never changes
Jin: About dat...
Funny thing is that Shimura's Japanese VA is the same guy who voiced Solid Snake/Big Boss in MGS series.
Jin: War has changed.
I didn't wanna watch this until I finished the game. I love this game SO MUCH! I didn't play until much later than release date because I was finishing other games. But holy fuck this is my personal game of the year (2020)!! So amazing, story deep, and heart-felt. You can tell they gave a lot of care when making this game.
I'm so happy, as a PC player, to be playing this game. I've invested time studying japanese culture through my martial arts training, and the game really shows that dichotomy of fighting the honorable way and the dirty way (by standards of the time). Being a Rönin was a horrible punishment, it meant your lord disowned you and people saw you as the lowest possible human being.
Amazing game so far, I agree with the 9/10 with a massive badass seal of approval.
"End of an era", dam, it's hard to believe the ps4 era is almost over.
and a new beginning is imminent
IKR? I just bought mine last year lol
@@cantloop9589 ?? Such as? There's been tons of amazing exclusives. With some ass ones for sure but with this and God of war and others... Come on.
Ikr i was like 13 in grade 8 now im 20 fresh outta college like shit this generation rlly flew by
I'm so in love with the games that the PS4 had on it this gen that I'm not going to be selling my system...like ever!
I fell in love with the game the moment i went raging into battle. I can't remember the last time i got this HOOKED on a game. Just addicted to the story and the combat and exploring the map. Great game.
But not last of us 2?
@@bitethebook7650 obviously not
When Shimura shouted no mercy and it nicely transitioned into gameplay at the beginning i immediately got the feeling this was gonna be good.
@@bitethebook7650 why even ask?
I remember when Taka dies a heroes death. I was legit pissed at the fucker that when I ended up against him at the end I killed him straight off not allowing a single hit. I was soo focused on that shit.
How can Ghost of Tsushima be made even better, by coming to the PC.
Only took Sony 4 years to make it happen but now finally at long last I can enjoy this master piece.
The only issue I had with this game is I didn’t know there was different endings. So I avoided stealth entirely thinking I’d get a different ending. But tbh it just gives me a reason to go back and replay this beautiful master piece

@@rapha4386 Thankss
Whoever came up with the wind feature deserves a raise. That shit is a revelation.
I agree 100%. It makes the game more beautiful
@@goalazo93 and more.. Cooler
Am I the only one who sees the potential of a Star Wars Jedi game copying this format? Samurai versus Ghost = Light versus Dark Side. The wind guiding you = The force.
There's a discussion with the creative director about alot of topics into the making of the game. Very revealing about the creative and iterative process. He does talk about how they came up with the wind. It's on youtube somewhere.
@jimpoppin nice troll comment.
This should've been game of the year.
27:02 honestly I think glitches like that add to the experience instead of taking way from it
This game is how Assassin's Creed games should've been. And, the best of them all, you can get "blue" for free. ;)
Eh, AC was it's own genre. I kind of miss those boring and tedious elements from the previous games, because that's what being an assassin was like.
@@Dakayto unity was peak assassin's creed
More like "This game is what Ubisoft should've made if they just stopped milking the AC franchise"

Why the hell would they ?? Both are ps exclusives ...
@@waled7rocky sony exclusive doesn't matter, they are pea brain woke ladyboys who only now like tlou2 and no other game
Well, love them both. GoT, TloU2 and Doom Eternal are my GOTYs.
They hate us cause they ain't us!
We better than them!
It’s genuinely surprising how little this man has aged. He only gained some weight.
Well he's Puerto Rican.....
@@Ryuksgelus they don't age.....Just get fat
Anger fuels his life force to maintain his youth, unlike with normal mortals where anger just gives us stress and we die faster.
well he just turned 36 in June he is still relatively young but I do get what you are saying ;)
He's essentially grown out his beard and hair more from his videos a decade ago
_"It's like Assassin's Creed. But better. In Japan. And without the microtransactions."_
Sorry Ubisoft, you missed out on this cash cow because you're umm... well... incompetent?
I don't know I feel kinda bad using that word. But yeah. Incompetent.
true but i still hope Ubi make AC Japan and set location not only on island but also in big cities like kyoto or tokyo
Yep they completely are, they completely stripped their best franchise out of its identity and replaced it with a generic action rpg system,GoT is the AC game we always wanted but never get(at least from ubi)
Japan itself isn't a cash cow lol. If they made an AC Japan it would still sell crazily
The only way Ubisoft can top this is if they make a microtransaction free Prehistoric Assassin's Creed that Other Joe has been asking for.
It has too much spoilers
Joe I gotta say, this is one of my favourite reviews you guys have done ever and you’re genuinely the only person I watch before I buy the games
Bravo sir’s 👏🤟😊
I played this in the Japanese language with English subtitles. it was awesome, am fairly sure if Akira Kurosowa was still alive he would of wept with joy.
Beautiful, stunning, huge nods to Kurosowa. Loved it.
I wonder if Joe noticed that when you walk through Pampas grass at walking speed with your sword put away Jin will reach out to run his hand through the grass
Which is probably my favorite detail
I know I am a bit late to the party but when you run full speed with your horse through the tall grass, Jin leans over the side and runs his hand through the grass as well. Amazing little details!
That's so cool
It's the only game I feel bad to can't play it becouse I play things in pc
Hopefully one day i found a cheap ps4 now that 5 came out
@@LuxZoltan I hope so, it really is a game that's worth playing. I just wish Sony would get over themselves with this exclusivity crap.
@@isaac13d - Same. I'm on X Box One and I really want to play this.
@@freddybeer funny thing is that Ubisoft has tried the same thing in AC Valhalla, but because the grass doesn't react to your presence it's hard to notice

The moment I heard those words, open season on all Mongols butts
I've seen that video too lol
Son this is not the Samurai way. Even though the game is named "Ghost".
because theyre Bandits and more if Samurai wouldnt defend his Life against an ambush je definately will kill the ambushers :)
Even the mongals fall into this level. Their pillaging invaders with no honor
And yet TLOU2 won game of the year over this
We live in a society…..
And no ones gotten what they fucking deserve

Lol
Dude i lost it lmaoooooo
i hate this game.
@7:00 "merciless Khotun Khan"... No not exactly... he was merciful... he clearly said he would set people free if they bent the knee.
My mom walk in one day in my room while I was playing and she thought I was watching a movie 🙂
That's how good the game looks if you ask me
I had thst once too back when the witchter 3 came out. I turned of my hud and it just looked like a movie.
Same, when I was in a field of white flowers 😂
Same
Every time i played red dead 2

Sony just dominated this generation, even ended the last year of this gen with a game of the year exclusive once again
This was not the game of the year

@@resilientproductions3893 what is game of the year in your opinion? FF7 Remake?
@@resilientproductions3893 i think it should be. it's like a samurai assassin's creed but with that sony triple a touch. I think any ps4 owner should just play this game once. hope for a remastered on the ps5 ir upgrade
@@fourclawrider yeah if that game turns out good. it'll probably win it. would also be happy if ghost got nominated
It's really good, Ghost of Tsushima came in my PS5 bundle, so did the GT7 insult and SpiderSomething, I didn't make much of it. I got the PS5 to play Red Dead Redemption 2, literally, but I played Ghost first because it came in the box already. Let me tell you, it was so good I postponed RDR2 until I fully liberated Tsushima. New game with lethal plus difficulty, broken armour and cursed charms, and on-line new content, it keeps the game fresh. I fell in love with this game too, I mean, how can you not?! And you're able to turn some things off, even simplifying further more the HUD, or lack of thereof. And the wind always blowing ... during the Mongol invasion by sea, the Japanese were helped by a great and sudden storm, the "divine wind", the "kami kaze" that sank most of the invading fleet, giving a hope for the resisting samurai clans. You can even name your horse Kaze. It's all so grounded and historically accurate, even the flaming sword, Jinn learns about it from a samurai guarding a "special stone", that sparked when striking the sword, igniting and burning the soaking oil on the blade. The story is so compelling and immersive, you'll remember pretty much every mission and side quest by the time you replay it, it's masterfully done. I just feel bad that it's a Sony exclusive, it's a masterpiece, should be enjoyed by all gamers.
