Makes you feel like a badass samurai straight out the door! Combat is very satisfying and you can get to grips with it pretty quick! After all, you are ALREADY a master samurai when you start the game. It’s such a beautiful game and the level of detail is amazing. Villagers bow to you and you can bow back. If you kill a predator, after bowing Jin will say sorry to the animal in a respectful manner! I am quite early on in the game so far, but from what I’ve seen the story seems great with already a few interesting npcs and great side quests, including quite a funny one! Leveling up your kit and Jin himself is Pretty impressive and you can really shape him into the style of Samurai/ninja that you want to play as. I’ve also got to mention the load times! They are so fast. I wanted a quick 25min session this morning, and I was able to switch on my ps4, load up the game, find a shrine, enjoy the view for a bit, find a hot spring, have a quick soak, then battle some Mongols I met on the rd, clear a small camp of moguls, then say hi to a camp of locals!
If you are a fan of the Witcher 3 and Shadow of War/Mordor, then I would highly recommend this. Pick it up you won’t be disappointed!!!! And don’t pay attention to game spots 7/10 🙄
