Ghost of Tsushima (Original release)

This was one of those rare games which I saw the trailer for and knew I had to buy. It’s a truly beautiful game and an engaging feudal Japan. Little is more satisfying than getting the buttons in order to slice your way through five opponents without them having a chance to fight back.

Jin, the main character in the game, was said by many to be emotionless. I never felt that. He was restrained, but the emotion was there all the way through.

Completed play through of base content on 22 August 2020 on the PlayStation 4.

Ghost of Tsushima (Director’s Cut)

The Iki Island content provided a PlayStation 5 version of Ghost of Tsushima with a story of Mongols staging Iki Island as an origin point for incursion into Tsushima.

I was immediately awarded another Platinum Trophy because that’s just the way it happens when you upgrade a game to the latest platform. I don’t count that in my total of platinums earned.

I completed the main storyline in a few days.

I did attempt to play with Japanese language and subtitles. Couldn’t read and play at the same time.
