Ghost of Tsushima is like most of your modern open-world action games. It suffers from content bloat in a largely lifeless world. It features repetitive gameplay and a story about as deep and winding as a straight line drawn in the sand. Despite all this, the best way I could describe this game is: "comfy." The combat was exhilarating during each and every encounter. The story executed all the necessary beats and was presented beautifully. And clearing the checklist of pointless side activities was a priority of mine because it meant I could keep experiencing this stunningly serene world. I didn't binge this game, but I enjoyed it every time I picked it back up. Ghost of Tsushima proves that it isn't the formula that makes a game good, it's the execution.
