#GhostOfTsushima
Game of the year 2020, and again in 2021 with the Director’s Cut on PS5. In fact, the game is absolute perfection and is firmly in my list of best games of all time.
Ps lovw the no hud approach we need morw options to remove huds in games
My top 3 PS4 exclusive are Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, and Horizon Zero Dawn.
This garbage goty😂😂😂😂😂😂😂yall too much
@@Duckman8213 u have no taste leave gaming clown😂😂😂

Final fantasy fan .. lol
I like that it's a love letter to a type of cinema that has come off so sincere that Tsushima made them Official Tourism Ambassadors. You can't get higher praise than that, imho.
Working on platinum for the fourth time. This game is everything I always wanted in a video game. The sights, the soundtrack, the combat, the feel, the graphics, everything about this game is what I expect from every game developer. The love that went into this game was insane. One of the best games of all time, easily!
100% agree. Best game of all time, and I've played most of them. Skyrocketed Sucker Punch into being my most anticipated studio, can't wait to see what they do next. Not long until hopefully
I've been gaming for so many decades so it's hard to pick a fav but this game definitely is in the top 10 games of games I have ever played.
I known this game brough back a rare feeling I use to feel as kid playing a new game. Love this game.
Been playing over 30 years. For me this is THE best game ever made. Easily.
Gaming as come a long way in the last 30+ years I've been playing to the point it's beyond what I dreamed about
Well thn u clearly didnt play more thn 10 games rhis imagine shilling this tech demo cashgrab garbage😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@deathrowslag78 this game made me literally stop and reflect on how far games have come at times, it’s THAT beautiful lol. I started on the nes back in the early 90’s
I’m a simple man. I see PlayStation access upload. I click and like.
Long time fan since 2014.
The access team always brings me so much joy on my days off. Thank you guys for everything you do for your subscribers :D
Agreed. 🙌🙌🙌
Perhaps you should see video before click like. Some are great and some are poor. If you do not agree with Ps access they simply ignore it.
@@Hero_Of_Old ...looks like black screen video posted by Ps access would be enough for some.
I presume different expectations.
@@michaelgromyko tbh ive watched PS Access streams on games I’m not interested in because their personalities still make it interesting.
I have zero interest in CoD but id happily watch Dave & Nath stream it cos their banter is what makes it entertaining.
Clearly some ppl don’t get that.
This vid is just interesting to me, if it’s not to you then that’s your prerogative. 🤷♂️
@Michael the standard bearer for quality - from Ratatouille, it’s easy to be a critic. It’s hard to create something and put yourself out there to have others judge the quality. Cheers
Wish they would do dlc where you play as Yuna before the Tsushima invasion, the last mission of the dlc could be where you have to rescue Jin from the battle field
What an amazing idea!
that'd be cool, thief of tsushima
Nah please no female protagonist
really love this idea. I'm wishing the same. I really love Yuna and it feels not enough, I need to see her more and once again I love the idea for last mission. need to see Lord Sakai in the end.
@@subwaykeks654 L
true masterpiece... don't often pay full price for a game but this game I felt deserved every penny and more...that's why I bought it twice 😶
@@georgechouchlias263 bro what 🤨
@@wksu2184he's based, you are not
Nate Fox has directed some of my favorite games. The inFAMOUS games, & now this. How does this man not have a Wikipedia page yet?!?
Y'know, in retrospect I actually think the standard combat is more impressive visually because most "classic" samurai films do duels and standoffs well but struggle with more straightforward combat. Tsushima doesn't have such a gap between the two.
Amazing timing..replaying this masterpiece on PS5 now
Fantastic game, I loved it so much. The music especially.
So glad the tale of Yuriko got a special mention, it was beautiful.
Top 10 things I'd love to see in the next masterpiece
1. in-depth upgrades using the metals/ores and forging techniques detail to the blade as you upgrade.
2. utulize the home created after the duel with uncle shimura as a home base of operations and or followers of the ghost.
3. one more sword stance and an enxtension of the stances' techniques.
4. More skins
5. more masks
6. more headbands
7. more hats
8. more allies
9. more dynamic dialogue
10. hell mode legends
Literally just got my playstation 5 today and this will be the 1st game I get to play
One of the Best open world games I've ever experienced!
Basically they focused on the actual game instead of multilayer and micro transactions
You'd think it could be sufficient and basically the norm...but they are the exception nowsadays.
And they ended up with the best MP mode I've played in YEARS. Such a great game.
@@carpetfluff35 for free nonetheless
Well its a PS studio game
@@samphyllobates4765 but yhat proves that the exceptions are the pinicle of game creators because their doing it the right way
Not this Planned DLC after release finish the game when we want to bullshit
One of the best games of all time!! Up there with classics like Ocarina of time, Metal Gear Solid, Skyrim
No
@@miloandot yes actually
@@scifigeezer5271 no
@@miloandot absolutely yes and even better
One of the few platinums I have and am now on the directors cut on PS5 going for it again. What a game!! More please!!! (an infamous remake would be very cool too... XD)
I’m in the same boat. I didn’t even really actively go for it either. It was such a rewarding Platinum because it didn’t ask you to 100% it or do any chores
How come all game developers can't have the same kind of approach that Sucker Punch Studios had making this game? Just an incredible piece of work by them. They set the benchmark for open world type games.
My GOTY 2020 and one of my favourite games ever. I waited my whole life for a realistic Feudal Japan samurai game and Sucker Punch delivered. Thank You Sucker Punch for making my dream game.
Same here. I was so happy that they didn’t take the folklore route like Sekiro & Nioh did.
I’d wanted an assassin creed game in Japan for years & im glad sucker punch beat them to it cos I’m sure Ubisoft would’ve found a way to ruin it given the chance.
@@BilCaesar while I do appreciate AC games, Ghost is way more "grounded" in reality (No ancient civilization stuff; just a samurai making his way through) and that's probably what made many people love it. Sure the Templar/Assassin conflict does work for a couple of games but after a while, you'll think: "can't I just live through the historical moment?" As for the Isu.......
@@hdgdjgsgfj1297 to be fair I haven’t really enjoyed AC since Black Flag & once I heard they were edging more toward myths in origins I lost all interest.
It’s why I’ve not even been tempted by Valhalla.
I don’t want to say it’s the most perfect samurai / ninja game cos nothing’s perfect BUT it’s definitely what I needed & I look forward to seeing someone trying to do it better.
@@BilCaesar exactly. And I too am happy for what it is.
@@hdgdjgsgfj1297 as far as open worlds go I’ve never had a game that’s made me spend so much time taking photos.
I felt like a tourist going ‘ooh that’s a nice view’ 🤣
I love the game and really appreciate this behind the scenes look. More of these please
Damn that makes me sad that we almost lost the Yuriko mission but also greatfull that they went ahead and had the actors voice over the scenes to show how amazing that mission actually was, besides the ending with Uncle this was one of the most emotional scenes in the game.
Still love this game so much. One of my favorites ❤️
the first and only game I got a Platinum trophy on
A game so stunning it literally makes me go into photo mode every 5 minutes lmao
🤣🤣
Ps5?
@@pravvinp5740 absolutely
I hope they make a 2nd one
Just an absolutely outstanding game and one of the best that I've ever played!
This game + this video is a true master piece❤️😊
It is indeed a masterpiece
When I started this I was just coming off rdr2 so I was a bit undwhelmed by this although I returned to it today and it’s absolutely amazing and more than earns it’s spot in my favorite games
This game was such a balm during the pandemic lockdown, this was my game that saved 2020. Besides the fact that the ending put me in a crippling depression for like two days straight. This is the Old Yeller of video games.
Coming at ya in 2022 and now we have another samurai game for those who don't have Playstation, Trek to Yomi. It's 2.5D and the combat isn't as complex but it's something. Out now on PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X/Series S and PC!
I’ve had the pleasure of picking this up on steam today. Can confirm, this is one the best video games of all time. To think this studio went from Sly Cooper franchise (the best in that genre) and then to GHOST OF TSUSHIMA ?!?!?! Mind blown
Clare Uchima singing the way of the ghost is amazing.
Currently replaying this on the ps5 from the beginning on lethal to platinum. Before it was god of war on GMGOW. Idk what I’ll platinum next but these games are amazing!
My favorite game. Masterpiece!
They need to patch Jin's comments on Jogaku mountain. Hearing "It's cold. I need warmth. Getting colder" 100 times during that climb gets annoying.
With that said, I absolutely love this game. Played it earlier this year and going through for a platinum on Director's Cut atm. Still loving it.
I love the standoff, that was until running them down with my horse came along, it’s too much fun.
Great video Ash, love these insights into the making of these amazing games
Beautiful, brutal, serene & intense, all elements of a great game.
14:58 Being a Samurai with swagger... Can't argue with that notion...
One of the best games I ever played. Ghosts of Tsushima is truly a masterpiece that I highly recommend people should play if they haven't already.
I never really bothered with photo mode before.
I’d messed about with it but when I played GoT it felt like I was stopping to take photos every few minutes & would go out of my way to get a stunning sunset shot or something.
Haven’t played it with the ps5 upgrade yet but i look forward to it.
This game IS perfection.
Kurosawa mode is a neat feature and all but I just could not bring myself to play this game in black and white. It is way too gorgeous.
They did a good job with this game. Such a wonderful experience. I love it. The music. The tone. The world. Everything about it feels straight out of a samurai movie. It is great. Play it now.
Great sound design too. I crank the volume with the music off.
GoT is one of those memorable games!
It was a wonderful summer.
I might been late to the party just started playing this few days ago and currently on Act: 2 without watching any walkthrough. All I could say is this is probably one of the best games created from this decade. The music, scenery, colours, the cultural immersion of Japan and the brilliant variety of things to do ingame without making it too dragging. Absolute masterpiece! I don't understand why this didn't win GOTY.
imagine shilling this halfbaked garbage
Goty????? Pls leave playing games u dumb bitcu
One of the best games!! I rarely platinum a game but I did with this.
I hope there will be a sequel because this one is a game inspired by real events We hope that there will be a sequel where there is a new character with new enemies, where there was another invasion and a much bigger one where the Chinese also attacked together with the Mongols and other enemies.
I will always love that they hired the voice actor for Mugen from samurai champloo in the Japanese version to voice Jin.
Also it's funny because Jin is the name of Mugen's friend
Absolutely one of the best games ever done. I'm 64 and I am still going through the various islands and areas just to find the banners and other small collectible items. Best game I've ever played in at least the last 50 years.
I'm in love with this game like I so love it!!! And sooooo hope they make a sequel!!!!!!!
Just finished this (for the third time) on PS5. God I love this game. I love this game a lot.
just finished this game tonight and ... it's a masterpiece. I was balling my eyes out, I was angry, I was excited, the costumes, set design, the opening, everything is perfect.
For me it’s great, but not a masterpiece
OMG it's Ash from Whatculture! This is where she ended up 😮
What a great game this is..i finished everything but iki island and i think that is good on itself...need the one last trophy for platium..and this game was free to play on psplus or i would have never played it..
This is my jam!! Especially legends right now until elden ring comes out I'll probably be playing this on the daily
Absolutely amazing game and company.
Would have been nice if we could put Jin in a meditation pose when relaxing to near beautiful soothing spots such as the waterfalls.
It is simply beautiful to looks at.
I just wish Jin was more connected to the world kind of like how Arther is in rdr2. The fact that he never eats or sleeps, sits down makes him seem like an alien or something
Yea, I was waiting to eat 😂
Excellent video, love to hear from the Dev teams on these amazing artistic games. Side note, anyone else notice the Halo 5 poster, framed, on his wall? Haha nothing wrong with that, of course, just kinda funny that a PS Developer didn't think to turn his camera a bit to hide that 😄
It should’ve won game of the year
It was definitely my GOTY for 2020. Don't care what the VGA awards say.
who got the award?
@@razrsliq7623TLOU2..🤮
Incredible game in terms of art direction, world-design, immersive atmosphere, gameplay execution and narrative presentation, but I did have considerable issues with how it romanticses the samurai from an historical perspective and uses Kurosawa as cinematic inspiration without really tackling the same social themes in similar depth. As for the so-called 'Director's Cut', I just don't want to pay another £25 for very minor technical upgrades from the free PS5 update and a relatively small expansion. £10-15 would have been reasonable.
I m really begin to cry when Jin's horse dead ,so imotional ,same happens in the end when his uncle and he fights.
Great video! I’ll watch anything about Ghost of Tsushima now
Me too..obsessed, it feels it was made for me tbh
The only game I ever platinumed, then they released more achievements. But at least the base game is platinumed
Second for me, my first was Days Gone (not including the telltale games) I’m never fussed about added achievements as it adds longevity for completionists but mostly I’m just happy to see the credits.
That’s rare enough for me. 🤣
This game is really impressive. Good job guys!
Absolutely stellar game. Best game I've completed in a long time
This needs more likes and more views...
One game that makes you want to go back and play it over again and again. True masterpiece.
Thanks for making this masterpiece this turned out to be better than infamous series surprisingly
A beautiful masterpiece sucker punch keep up the good work looking forward to new game or new ip😊
I love, love, loooooove that game!
Just finish this game in hard and new game+ in hard+ also. And do all the camp raid in lethal+ freaking amazing. I want ghost of tsuahima 2 with genghis khan as final boss
This game is such a masterpiece, and the multiplayer as well, super enjoyable and no microtransactions whatsoever
Waiting for the price to go down on this one. I know it will be years before I play it 🥲
It's free on Playstation atm
i hope the sequel takes place on the Japanese mainland. Maybe even a prequel on the mainland.
The real game of the year.
Please make a sequel this game was perfect
A great-looking game I've yet to play but will once the price goes down.
You'll enjoy it! Worth every penny!
This along with God of War are the two biggest games that I would say are 100% worth full price.
There is no doubt that Ghost of Tsushima is a masterpiece compared to many PS exclusives. It basically shows the true power of what the soul and identity the Playstation brand has ever become.
Superb
Beautiful game overall. Loved it.
This game is the real game of the year 2020 for me. One of the best games of the whole PS4 generation
Having a really hard time picking which of these PS4 masterpieces was my favourite this game & Horizon Zero Dawn.
Such a Masterpiece.
I always play my flute over the bodies of my vanquished enemies.
This is the best game hands down.
Thanks 🙏 you for show us Masterpieces PlayStation Access👏👏👏👏…….
Who else playing the hell out of Legends mode 👌🏽
best game ever !
They never got to the Ariake bamboo strike :(
Indeed it is
301 Club ! Roll call! Present Professor Rob
Thanks for this. I love the game. The expansion price is rediculous though. Sony has gotten too greedy, too cocky.
It's free on playstation
Masterpiece
Tsushima is definitly the best developed game on PS4! don't miss it! :)
Suckerpunch did a really good job on their first outing just like guerilla but by no means is this a masterpiece when compared to rdr 2 imho.
