Among the many things I appreciate about GHOSTS OF TSUSHIMA is that, while it's a spectacularly-rendered open world that thrusts you into a pulp history version of the 1274 Mongol invasion of Tsushima, it's not a spectacularly-rendered open world that thrusts you into a RED DEAD 2 pulp history version (much as I adore RDR2) of the 1274 Mongol invasion of Tsushima that forces you to eat the right amount of carbs and protein and what have you or wear the right outfit in the right weather conditions or feed your horse the right amount of apples and oats to live to slay another Mongol hoard. Nice just to ride with the wind from stand-off to stand-off to heartbreak to heartbreak accompanied by Nobu’s clop-clops and Ilan Eshkeri and Shigeru Umebayashi’s incredible score.
