Ghost of Tsushima

Platinum’ed it. Missed the bow to secret shrines, backtracking, but not too bad.

So...does it matter which ending one choses besides the rewards? I mean, no real post game besides the legend mode which I’ve skipped for now or? Fantastic game, sat for a while. Ooomfff. GoTY for me for sure.

Each choice gives you a different "home base", a different cosmetic and some slightly different dialogue.

Cool. Is there any new content or point to playing after you get the home base? I went with the honorable ending, forfilled the wish. I mean, I walked around listening to Jin taling about the stuff there. But I completed all quests before this, sans the legend stuff.

Other than NG+ or the Legends, nope.

Been playing on and off for 2 weeks, finally 100%'d island #1 and i think i'm gonna drop off for a while. The game is pretty good but the main character is bland and boring as hell, the story and quests are pretty bland, the mechanics are decent but nothing amazing, and the quest/map is just Ubisoft 2018 playbook.

It is absolutely gorgeous, especially on PS5 at 60 fps. Sitting on a cliffside while the sun sets and leaves are blowing in the wind is fucking art, definitely top 5 most beautiful video games of the past decade. I just really can't get immersed in the setting or story, and its all super predictable and bland. It did kick up an interest in the tv show Marco Polo (Netflix), only lasted 2 seasons but the guy who played Kublai Khan in that plays basically the same character in this game. I only watched a few episodes and then they cancelled the series but I always thought it was a great show, and maybe watching it will spark more interest in this game.

Its too bad they didn't take the side of the Mongols in the game, I honestly would have way preferred to play as a Mongol invader, having to either be brutal or merciful, giving monologues about how humans only get better when they are tested and set with adversity and honor is what you make of it, etc. Right now though as it stands the main character of GoT is up there with Adan Pierce from Watch Dogs 1 as most boring ass video game character ever.

Had the same feeling after Act 1. But it gets better moving on, so glad I pushed on. Some epic fights ahead, some heartbreaking, and several very, very satisfying moments. And they expand on the gear, whole new game experience with...well, you have to see for yourself, spronk

oh thats good to hear, i know a lot of people kept saying just do main story on island #1 and skip all the side stuff so you don't overlevel, but i ignored that and did everything first lol. I can totally see some twist shit going on with the Khan, Lord Shimura but hopefully its not as predictable as the story seems to make it so far.

still i think i'll watch Marco Polo first and get back to GoT after playing Yakuza, need a break from samurai world

1: get some tshirts and business card and shit with you listed as a Vice President at Sucker Punch
2. go to Tsushima Island
3. tell all the hot ladies that you worked on Ghosts and are an ambassador now
4. get laid
5. ??
6. become a yakuza

Pass on listening to rang rangs speak in Wingdings all game

"Tom Cruise is the last samurai and he's gonna run them damn Mongols out of town"


they also announced the game has sold 6.5m copies so far in ~9 months. Horizon Zero Dawn sold 7.5m copies in its first year, not sure about TLOU2

The title of "director" becoming commonplace in videogame credits is what really showed me that this pitiful Hollywood envy among devs was never going away and that "cinematic, narrative-driven" games that do neither story nor play well would be the norm from then on.

Ok, but this is the Ghost of Tsushima thread ... perhaps you were looking for Last of Us 2 instead?

They're all just posts in the same "Poorly Interactive B-Movie" thread.
