Today’s game is Ghost of Tsushima. I climbed the mountain in the northern province while looking for a quest, and i have to say. This is a beautiful sight, and it really puts game worlds into scale. It’s really fucking cool in a way. I like how i can see the past area too my left, and on the horizon i can see a fuck ton of other things, such as what i think is some burned down woods.
Also something i noticed was that you can see Japan, just on the horizon. Either that or it’s South Korea, i’m pretty sure it’s Japan though due to the location. This also got me on a rabbit hole of just looking at the Island’s Geography and Terrain Map
Of course, the game isn’t just Horizons. On the way to the quest i found this lovely sight at a river. I love the way the sun plays with the water and creates this leading line. It drew my eyes out to sea, which i’m sure everyone can tell by now i’m rather fond of.
Finally, that brings me to the actual mission i’ve been building up towards. I liked this one, i felt like it was a lot more open ended than other missions tend to be. I really liked how it gave me the choice of going stealth or charging the bridge. In a way it’s a good representation of the moral dilemma Jin faces. He could stick to tradition and charge the bridge, which i feel most players wouldn’t pick due to the challenge, or he could sneak around and hijack the Hwacha which would be far easier. Or at least that’s how i saw it. It’s an interesting gameplay choice interpretations aside. It’s weird to think i’m nearing the end. I still have the DLC, but man, it went by fast.

I’ll be honest that first screenshot is not a very flattering representation of the game’s graphics.
