"Intentionally interweaving innumerable instances of interesting incidents into its intrepid intricicies".
That's the most pretentious string of words I've ever heard, formed into one sentence.
I'm so glad they beat Ubisoft to the fuedal Japan setting.
Ubisoft did make a Japanese assassin's creed and its not that good
@@mrhater2284 did they ?
@@shaunarthur5111 No, he probably confused it with the chinese one (assassin's Creed chronicles: China) which I personally liked a lot
@@mrhater2284 No they didn't.
Now ubisoft can do imperial japan with trans bipocs
Why this game is good:
10% Story, Characters, Gameplay etc.
90% Wind
100% Horse
Ghost of Tsushima was my first Platinum and I got it on ACCIDENT didn’t even realize. That’s how fun this game is. 10/10 must play
dude things kinda happen to me too, when i was done all i had to do was pray at the shrine and i got a plat. thats how good this game is to get you interested to do its side stuff. i love it and i want more
You wore the Sly Cooper outfit on accident?
by accident, not on. ffs
Bullshit lmao.
There are some very specific trophies. No way did you do them by accident.
@@KraljHD prolly saw some articles on how to get specific cosmetics without the intention of getting the trophies
That happened to me with Far Cry 5. When I got the game I just stopped playing after a couple sessions. However, a year and a half later, I upgraded my rig and played through the game with much higher fidelity and crushed it.
I wasn’t sure if it was because it looked better or maybe I was just excited about my new rig? I’m not sure.
Not sure why, but the subtle music of fc5 is still stuck in my head. Literally no idea why tho.
@@thefrozendrink those guitar melodys and cult songs were insanely well made
@@petermaguire4825 they were bangers for no reason. I randomly get the urge to throw shovels and hear that mission complete riff.
What are you doing here Harley?
Well if you asked me. It's cuz far cry is a half poopy diaper of a series. But that's just my opinion. And I'm just a guy who likes to eat goose feathers.
I just wanna add: Ghost of Tsushima had one of the best endings, I've played in a loooong time!
Bioshock better
The two endings simply blew my mind away and it’s such a phenomenal game and it definitely was my game of the year 2020!!! 🔥😁
@@kozukitonio740 Who cares?
@@tadaokou4919 me
@@kozukitonio740 Okay, have fun in your bubble.
Ghost of Tsushima was the first game I completely played through doing as much side content as I could since I obsessively played all of the Ezio games years ago. Such a good game. 💕
Nice
Same, i was just so thirsty for more excuses to play this game.
Right there: those two games you guy's are talking about, I played like 6 Times all of Uncharted's (including the psVita One 😂) And GoT Im on the 3rd time already. Now Im on my Level 1 Katana only Journey. You know they are Masterpieces when you want to keep playing after beat it 💯.
Ghost is straight up the most beautiful game I've ever played. I would routinely stop to use the photo mode, which is something I'd never done in any other game. It's worth it alone just for some of the visually stunning moments you come across regularly.
It's a good looking game for witcher 3 is the most beautiful
@@BlackDevilGamer138 Nah man completely false lmao you're being 100% bias
@@BlackDevilGamer138what universe is witcher 3 better looking then ghost of tsushima?
Bought the Witcher in 2016 kept attempting to play until 2019 starting and and restating every time I went back to it. Until it finally clicked in 2020 and I’ve finished it twice since then! 😅
Twice? Thats impossible
@@jinchuriki7022 not really. I beat it on pc them i bought it on my ps4 a few months back and beat the base game and all dlc on death march difficulty
Me too! I preordered TW3 and then bounced off of it 4 or 5 times. Finally it clicked! It is now my favorite game ever.
I have both ghosts of tsushima and the witcher 3, haven't played the witcher although owning the game for over 5 years now 🤣 and ghosts have I only played for a few minutes because of how many other games I had to play/finish.. it's a bit sad, turning on a game for me it's very hard, especially new ones😔 I just don't know why or what the problem is.. games in the past I sunk hundreds of hours into is fallout 4, skyrim on ps4, dying light, a little less hours for far cry 5 and new dawn and days gone
@@profezzorBALTAZAR youre an old man
I'm not big platinum player but Ghost of Tsushima was my first ever Platinum! Amazing game!
If it weren’t for nostalgia with past games, this would easily be my favourite game of all time.
Couldn’t have said it better.
I'm replaying Ghost of Tsushima right now for the 4th time. Absolutely excellent.
Just saying, the game was 60 FPS well before the Director’s Cut.
Yeah on ps5
@@ggboygg2606 i thought mostly all games were 60fps on ps4 or has my whole life been a lie
@@kozukitonio740 depends on what games you tend to play really. Big single player games are mostly 30 but multiplayer games like fortnite, rocket league and r6s are 60
@@ggboygg2606 hmm I didn’t know that thx
This is the game that got me back into gaming after years out of it. This is the game that got me through one of the worst years of my life (looking at you 2020). This is the game that made me love open-world rpg's. Also, it's way better than LOU2 and actually got the ending right...
wrong
The whole reason why I got a PS4 pro in the first place purely was to play Ghost during the shit show of a year that was. Was it worth it? Yes. Absolutely. Remains my only platinum to this day.
I really enjoyed ghost but the story just follows the usual hero trope that is in almost every single game.
@@justwait9822 Perhaps but that ain't a bad thing if its done right
You know Luke, this made me think of something....
So currently, I am in a master program for psychology. As students/prospective counselors, silence is something we often address as an important tool rather than an obstacle. Through our reflections after practice sessions, we notice how many of us have this innate desire to fill the silence between questions; we often jump straight into the content or solving the problem for clients instead of giving time/space to explore the feeling or emotion in their story. It's uncomfortable at first and might feel unnatural but eventually, those little moments without our input can allow for incredible moments of client insight or vulnerability. I can attest to the wisdom in the phrase "sometimes less is more."
This is where Ghost of Tsushima comes in. Instead of filling every single little moment with blaring stimulants to keep players obsessively engaged, they both made definitive space for silence and gently encouraged their players to pause for a moment. As you addressed, the minimalist hud and unintrusive wind "waypoint" are great examples of this mindset. Oh and one other moment, there are times when players have to climb these large mountains or heights. Upon reaching the top and if the player walks to the edge, the camera will instinctively pan back and up to give a wider view of the panorama! Notice how it's not a cutscene and you just quickly turn around going on your merry way. It's like the game is exploring the scenery itself and gently telling you "Whoaaaa....look."
Always appreciate your insight and work. Your own reflections/videos give me space to reflect as well. Love the content.
I love this comment
😅 just wow
You’re right by the end of the game I was saying, “for Tsushima!”
I had this EXACT feeling with Star wars: Jedi fallen order.
On Next Gen consoles it became the game others had hyped it up to be!
I gotta give that one another try….I’ve tried to play that game twice and just never got hooked. I haven’t tried it on ps5 yet though, and it’s one of those games i really want to love, so I guess I’m gonna give it another shot! 😊
@@fritschxf try changing the controls because they let you map them and I know for me the way they set it up bothered me, personally I moved the combat buttons to the triggers similar to god of war and that helped me fall in love with the game
very true. That game was my "transitioning game" from the PS4 to PS5 and the difference in the combat was massive, I went from thinking it was "kinda bad" to "amazing"
It's one of the best games I've ever played. I had to stop myself from playing it.
I often experience not liking the game as much as other people, it's always something that frustrates me.
Just a hint: If you haven't played it with Japanese audio, I strongly suggest you do it.
Looking forward to playing a game means so much more than mere 'fun' will ever do.
Wow so deep
I bought this on PS4 only a few months back and pretty much fell in love. The world is just seamless, you're always collecting something like flowers or materials whilst enjoying the views between quests or areas.
Only game I have ever cared to Platinum, same goes for the DLC.
Too many Fox Dens though, even with spacing them all out :)
honestly, putting the game on realistic difficulty is what really managed to get me hooked
I promised myself I wouldn't go there ... I lied.
Lethal difficulty is the way. That's when you get the true inmersion
TL;DR: Ghost of Tsushima is an incredible game that I see myself playing over and over for a long time.
When this game was announced, I wasn't too keen on playing it. I've never been attracted to Japanese armors and fighting and storytelling as much as I was to European knights and tales. The closer it got to the release date, the more I heard about it and the more I was interested, but I didn't have a PS4 to play it on, so I gave up on it and left it there. Christmas came around and my wonderful girlfriend surprised me with the game to play on her system, and for the next couple days I couldn't put it down. GoT pulls me in and entertains me in such a way like no other game has before. The combat is addicting, the armors and cosmetics are gorgeous and scratch that samurai/ninja fantasy itch perfectly. It's a game that I am so glad to have experienced and I will play it for years down the road.
Ghost of Tsushima is here to prove that you can make a good Assassins Creed
This comment 👌 👏 🤣
Soooo true!
@@KalenTomlinson no It doesn’t
@@JoJo-qz6jo no it doesn't what?
Fell in love with the game soon as I started it. Literally the only game where clearing bandit camps is fun.
I’m in the middle of my second Play through and I’m loving every second of it!!!
GoT is the only game I’ve actually wanted to 100%. It’s immersive and addicting, and most of the characters are interesting. I know Jin isn’t as engaging (especially in the beginning), but I view him as a more subtle character. I really enjoyed the hot springs that gave these small windows into his thoughts and feelings.
Glad to see you loving it. While it wasn't my GOTY last year, but FFVIIR was (and I'm being biased here not going to lie), Ghost of Tsushima was one of the best experiences I've had in years. And, I've had the pleasure to go through it all three times (last one with the DLC included on the PS5), and managed to get my platinum for it.
Can't wait for your critique on it.
Ghost of tsushima is my favourite game of all time hands down. Simply because my dream game idea has always been about some sort of fallen samurai fighting to save a feudal japan.. So Ghost of Tsushima pretty much. The directors cut is just even better, iki island is incredible.
Iki Island is something else... the level of immersion is intense and so gratifying
Same thing has happened to me a few times. I feel like we just need to be in the right headspace to enjoy some of these games. It happened with RDR2 for me, I can't tell you how many times I tried playing that game but as soon as I stopped overthinking it and just started to enjoy it for what it is. I couldn't stop playing.
Ghost of Tsushima is the game I think of when I needed a distraction from my old, shitty job. I remember getting so lost in the world and feeling so motivated to get through the work day just to come home and play it. Every mission felt like it was expanding the world and every character felt like they were there to affect Jin and allow us to understand his character development without it having to be explicitly told to us. I think the game reignited some love for gaming as I felt I was getting a little tired of it. Its definitely in one of my top personal favorite games
I feel the same about this game. Maybe I'll revist. I had the same thing happen with Horizon Zero Dawn for 2 damn years before it clicked, but when it finally did I could not put it down and became one of my all time favorite games.
I’ve had this happen to me with Red dead redemption 2 and by extension, the online mode. I’m not sure what prompted me to start playing it and going all in but I just had this feeling like I *really* wanted to play the Online mode for red dead and then eventually I picked up the single played and spent the majority of my summer playing through that
My first playthrough felt amazing and refreshing. A Year later I played my second NG+ playthrough and it felt like a chore.
This game is undoubtedly one of the best last gen to next gen games ever.
Yes, it came out on PS4 but it feels and lools like a PS5 game too.
Sucker punch did an awesome job with this game and yeah, I think an assassin's creed game set in the Azuchi-momoyama period would've been quite expected as it is set right in the middle of the Sengoku-jidai.
I think they did something quite different here and it'll be appreciated for many years to come with people having fond memories of it.
I felt the same distance from the witcher 3. Eventually went back. Played it for 60 hours twice in 2 months.
I played it on the ps4 when it came out. Loved it. GOTY for me. Then i finally got a ps5 and bought the ps5 version of the game with directors cut and iki island. Loved it even more. For some reason this game hooked me just like how the Witcher 3 hooked me. I love open world games and never got tired of it so i played alot of open world games but only a few open world game actually made me feel like this. Witcher 3 and Ghost. Cant wait for your deep conversation about this game.
This exact thing happened to me with Ghost of Tsushima, bounced off of it when it first came out, but absolutely loved it when it came to PS5 and basically 100%-ed it over a couple months. I think a big part for me was switching to lethal difficulty with no HUD and using the ability to save charms to specific outfits, which forced me to engage with the game's different playstyles/systems and facilitated that experimentation respectively.
Despite being someone who loved TLOU2 (having very little issue with stories that don't go my way), Ghost of Tsushima was still my GOTY purely because it was a more enjoyable experience overall. Very well designed. I loved the minimalism in the UI and the organic methods of guidance. Combat was good and presented just enough challenge. Story was very simple but compelling. World and art direction was fantastic - anywhere you stop could be a painting. Also, barely any bloat and not an overwhelming amount of collectibles. Excellent game.
Majority of people who didn't like TLOU2 don't mind stories going their way. But stories can have bad writing and execution. If you liked it, great. But there were real problems with the way the story was written and executed
@@ybyby3rdday Very much disagree that there were objectively bad things about the writing.
That’s why Sly Cooper was so fun, the fluidity of gameplay.
took me years and about 7 tries to get into skyrim. I put a mod on to remove encumbrance and then I absolutely loved playing it with hundreds of hours put in.
Lmao black hole pockets
@@nix98zlcy exactly just a simple mod can change the whole game sometimes. Love Skyrim now, just did another run theough on my steamdeck it’s fantastic!
It took me THREE different tries to get into three Witcher 3. I heard it was great, and I already bought it years ago, but after the tutorial map, I could never sit down and experience it. Each time I got just a little further, but could never see the appeal. It wasn't until the Netflix series was out that a gave it another shot. On the One X, it came with a performance mode, and I couldn't put it down. Something about seeing the environments in smooth 60fps made me instantly immersed. I dived into everything I could, to the point where I didn't want to touch anything else. So i get it when you give something another chance with higher fidelity. So when that bloodborne PC port finally comes out, I look forward to jumping in for the first time.
Either way great vid
This is exactly how i felt with this game, this game is perfect for me, everything this game did it was done succesfully. 10/10
I remember I wasn’t excited for this game, but I played the tutorial mission on a Friday night, and put 3 hours in immediately, and followed that with a 9 hour spree the next day, and it was the most lost in a game I think I’ve ever been
just finished all the side quests yesterday, gotta say one of the most addictive open world games i've played, to me it's all I ever wanted from assassins creed after ac3
3:03 here’s something i don’t do, i don’t care how much i payed for a game, if i don’t enjoy it, i won’t force myself in to play it. Money i can replace, but not my wasted time. Happened with RDR2,, Death Stranding, TW3 and WatchDogs.
Hey luke, that feeling you said you got when you first played ghost of Tsushima is the same one i got when i first tried out Witcher 3. I remember all the hype for the witcher 3 and when i tried it i thought to myself “Do people really consider this game one of the greatest games of all time?”. After the complete edition came out i tried out the game again and now its one of my favorite games of all time lol.
I feels like this is what happening to me with Horizon Zerodawn, saw many praise this game but I couldnt play it for over 30mn. Im thinking maybe becuz I got used to clean HUD (Ghost, GOW, Spiderman) and HZD screen is too busy. But I will try to get back to it again to see what the fuzz is all about.
GOT is the game Ubisoft wishes it could make. Not only is the title a masterpiece in its own right, I found the game highly recommendable to friends and family looking for the perfect escape.
I owned this game since last year and took me until 3 months ago to play through it. Wow. What a masterpiece. It even got me interested in Japans history and culture.
When I watch these videos of “Just Wow” they remind me of one of my favorite basketball TH-camrs JXmyHighroller. I would recommend watching even just one of his videos. So dope video my friend, and can’t wait for the next one!
This video has such good timing for me personally. I ordered the directors cut last week and literally as I was watching this video I got the notification that my package had arrived. So excited to play this one
yeah i got burned out on video games a long time ago. Then for whatever reason I played Resident Evil 4 Remake last year, and it was like being a kid again. I had forgotten how much fun games can be. Loved that game. After finishing it, I failed to find anything else that was fun. I bought a lot of AAA games, none of them did it for me, until Ghost of Tsushima Directors Cut. I actually like this game even more than RE4R. Same thing as the narrator I played this game until way too late at night, only going to sleep because I have work in the morning, and played it as soon as I grabbed free time after coming home. It was just fun, for many, many days on end.
Can't wait for the full critique : )
One of the best games I've ever played.
Got it two months ago, finished it twice, and I'm clearly not done replaying it.
The combat alone blows most entire open world games out of the water, to say nothing of the amazing story, atmosphere, soundtrack, etc.
Played it directly on PS5, though, so never had to deal with the low framerate version.
I don't believe in needing better performance to appreciate a game but I agree that playing a game at a different time in the year or in your life can drastically change your perception and appreciation of a game. The other way around could work too. My example is TLOU when the game came out I was in a bad place and the game tone gave me anxiety playing it and I hated it. YEARS later I replayed it coming in with a different perception of life and so on the game and loved it.
Nah it happens, especially when a game receives a remaster or framerate boost. Ghost is my favorite game of all time now. That title was previously held by Zelda: Ocarina of Time. If I strip away the nostalgia, Ghost easily takes that title. I put way too many hours(over 500, Legends included) into Ghost and have finally moved on. I'm enjoying AC Valhalla and Odyssey right now. It's doing a decent job of filling my Ghost of Tsushima void. But man, because of Ghost, the AC games' downfalls are on full display, particularly the responsiveness of combat. Ghost just nailed the feel of melee combat. Love it!
I had this exact experience with Shadow of the Colossus I played it on the PS2 and I just did not like it and then years later I saw the remake and I thought "ah I might as well give it another go" and I absolutely fell in love with the remake
One of the most boring and disappointing games I've ever played
I'm not a completionist but GoT was one I Platinumed and had a blast doing it
The same way that Red Dead has barely any competitors in the western genre, samurai genre has next to no videogames. SP didn't have to go all out in order to make assloads of money, but they did. Kino combat system and a great story to boot
When Ibbought this game I had no idea what I was really getting. However, quickly I feel in love with it. Absolutely, amazing game!
You struggled with it initially because you enjoy being a contrarian and you didn’t like all they hype it was getting . Then after the hype died down you were able to actually OBJECTIVELY analyze it so you liked it more. The problem was with who you are as a person
You hit the nail right on the head
This happened with me with Ghost of tsusuima and Mass effect legendary edition
awesome video. and yes it is the best overall put together intuitive game I have ever played. also allows player too adjust difficulty too very easy too very VERY hard. especially using the cursed charms to enhance difficulty.
I had a lot of hesitation coming in into this game, at first I didn’t like it all that much, but I gotta say that the story is gripping, the combat once you learn it is whole and satisfactory and the Environment is perhaps of the most immersive
I've always liked you for some reason:), but it was made evidently clear today when you gave your thoughts on Middle Earth....
Your thoughts on Valhalla, Far Cry 6 and others have been taking the words right out of my mouth. "DAMN YOUR GOOD."(Ace Ventura Voice)
"I'm you, no I'm you...Were twins 😭" (Eddie Murphy/Owen Wilson I Spy)
For me this happened with the first souls game I ever played which was demon souls, I personally think this was more of a difficulty issue I had with the game and not understanding that armour weighed down your rolls but I dropped the game after not being able to defeat a boss,I knew I would eventually defeat it,but I wasn't having fun. I took a break from the game,played it again later, learnt how to defeat the boss and I was hooked on the game after that. I then finished the game. Sometimes a game doesn't connect with you the first time you play it I guess😂
I personally prefer playing games not more than 2 hours so i can focus more on the story and enjoy the game at a slower pace. But for GOT is was so linear and attractive to just roaming around and discover that couldn't stop. i was literally saying to myself please stop and Tomorrow continue to play the game. GOT is the only game on PS4 that i couldn't stop. That feeling you had, i have it for days gone, at first i wasn't into it, then I feel connected as soon as deacon hit the road and was so desperate to look for his wife. GOT, days gone and death stranding. i love those lone ranger characters.
It's a good game imo but not great. A higher end 7/10. Most side quests were a chore and the main story was good. The physics often looked bad. Beautiful world tho lacking in fun and innovative things to do. Basically, it suffers from the exact same things that other open world games do.
I honestly love this game so much, granted this was the time period I always wanted from assassins creed… to me, they did it better than Ubisoft will ever if they ever.
Had that with red dead 2. Everything there checked all my boxes as something I should love but I really do think it could be the frame rate
This game seemed very average to me. It did everything OK, but nothing especially great.
I think the artistic design was the only aspect of the game that was truly great.
im a total frame rate snob, i find anything under 30fps just looks choppy to me
This game still hasn't clicked with me. Technically its good but it just feels too repetitive. I think its just that open world fatigue. Hoping eldin ring can break that
All these content creators sayi g the game initially sucked.... um hate to break to ya. So do you as a contentent creator bub. The only difference is you cant come out with a directors cut 😅
Well this is going to be an unpopular opinion but this game is a 7/10. People are overhyping this game too much.
My opinion I don't want to get attacked pls
I would love a full Critique of Ghost Of Tsushima this was the first game I played on PS5 and may very be my favourite game of all time as of todays date!
Definitely loved this game. Got the platinum. I haven't play the expansion yet,but I will.
We're there any texture rendering improvements in the PS5 version?
Not gonna lie I felt zero attachment to the island itself at any point. More so the characters. I am still going through Iki island, great video and perspective my dood. Excellent food for thought.
One of the rare few games I got the platinum for like Bloodborne. Can't wait til some of the big first party games start dropping on PS5
I had the same thing happen with Witcher 3. I really hated it when I first played it, gave it another chance a year later, and now it's my favorite game of the generation
I had the opposite phenomenon. I tried playing the witcher 3 on PC, but never got into it. I eventually got it on the switch and put nearly 200hrs into it
Yes right as I’m about to go into my long store I can sit back and listen to your video
Enjoyed It 1st play through, LOVED it 2nd and 3rd time.
Yes! Great timing, I just started my third play through pretty much straight after my last play through. Trying Lethal+ this time 😅 Just a wonderful game, there’s something so special about it.
I pray that one day, my grandchildren won’t know of a world in which console exclusives exist.
This is the 2nd best game that released on ps4 behind RDR 2. If you are a gamer and haven’t played this game idk what you are doing
After 2 hours with a game i just get tired the only game where I could almost go forever was witcher 3.
I remember dropping Ghost of Tsushima after a few hours out of boredom and being burned out from having so much free time to play in 2020.
I even called it overrated, just being ignorant.
Then I picked it back up again during the holidays and completed its story mode & side content entirely before the year ran out, such a great game.
Man same, i couldnt bring myself to continue at first. But damn wasnt i brought to near tears by the finale came upon me
The game was great for me as well but I do think the game is a little tad overhyped. A few repetitive content on the game design and the story was good just not as great compare to other games. Overall though I'm glad a studio challenge to bring in an open world Samurai game with a historical context and solid characters. We can all agree had this been Ubisoft this game wouldn't great as it was and have many bug issues. :D
My Opinion about it still hasn't changed, I still think it's Overrated only thing good about the game is the Navigation system.
@Pedro Viana I don't know, look I think it's a great game but I honestly think as someone who has put a ton of hours on Witcher 3 it really has put me into higher standards but I wouldn't say Ghost is a Ubisoft open world game. Like it's def 3x better then any current AC game. I tried both Japanese Dialogue and English Dialogue and it actually sounds better in Japanese Dialogue. I accepted you can't play Ghost 100% Stealth. The game is catered to stealth and combat gamers who want to play it in a Samuraii run through
@Pedro Viana Or maybe, just maybe, YOU just don't like it. I guarantee there are games you love that others hate. Enjoying a game you don't doesn't mean people have low standards. 🙄
My experience with horizon zero dawn was very similar to yours here! Once the game got a 60 FPS patch I was able to enjoy it so much more when I came back to it. we’ve reached a point where anything less than 60 is just unplayable to me it’s sad lmaoo
30 fps without motion blur is RUFF
This game was demanding. Not like 'I can't beat a boss demanding'. Rather like 'I don't really want to play it, but when I start, I sink into this world, however tedious this may seem'. In the end I feel I've invested my time properly. While playing it I have been in awe. I have been infuriated. Somteimes it felt I was bored but looking back I see what a complex experience that game was 👍
Glad to see this game finally connected with you. I remember you calling it “a half-assed Assassin’s Creed” (I think that was on Press Start) and I just couldn’t wrap my head around it considering how much I enjoyed this game.
I can relate to enjoying this game more at a higher fidelity, though. I originally played it on a base PS4 and was disappointed in some respects regarding its frame rate and audio issues with that version. But when playing it on PS5 when it was patched to allow for 60FPS on the “Quality” mode (before the Director’s Cut) it played like a dream and greatly enhanced my enjoyment with the game. Now with the Director’s Cut that enjoyment has only been enhanced even further. And when you throw the Legends MP mode into the mix, it’s been a blast of a game that I keep finding myself being drawn back to nearly 1.5 years after its release.
Played ghost of tsushima directors cut on Playstation 5 as first go at it. It's a masterpiece
This game is literally what assassins creed should of become smh
I played GoT and loved the first couple hours but got bored and took a month off came back and beat act 1. Ngl it took me multiple times to slog through act 2’s first half but the second half was brilliant and I devoured it. act 3 was also really good and I beat it super quickly. When I was into the game I played it non stop but some sections were just boring.
Overall I ranked it third for game of the year behind hades and doom eternal for 1st
i liked the game, but it was hard finishing this. And that seems to be the case for many. On a personnel level, i think i felt let down by the exploration. It was heavily implied before it came out that this was gonna be a game where exploration is central to the experience but the more i would do it, the less involved i became in the game. there was simply not enough surprises or rewards for doing so and ultimately i got very bored with it all half way to the end. focusing on the story alone, i finally managed to finish it.
The DLC Has much better exploration That was my issue as well.
Just bought the game yesterday! Excited to play 👍
Just an unpopular opinion here 😅 i think this game was very overrated. Combat and art style aside, this game was very repetitive. Same kind missions and side quests. Go clear out a village from Mongolians over and over.. Find another fox den, another shrine and another haiku.. I liked the traversal but open world games like rdr2 and the witcher 3 are the epitome of grand open worlds personally
Tbh GoT is one of my favourite games of all time and I can't really disagree with that critique.
