Graphics: 5/5, stunning
Soundtrack: 5/5, subtle, but gave me chills
Combat: 5/5, If you time things just right, you are the coolest guy on the planet. If not you stumble around and scream while dogs eat your face. Looking cool is a great incentive to do well imo.
Storyline: 5/5, I expected a lot of what happened, but I have never seen most of the tropes that come from bushido cinema played out in a game before. The story was told with few words and lots of dramatic stings that immersed me. I cheered and I cried and I felt connected to Jin Sakai’s tale.
Fun: 4/5, it could get samey at times with such an open-world, but I was always discovering something. It was more tragic than fun, but still majorly exciting. Getting mauled by a bear really helps ease the tension.
