Ghost of Yotei May be one of my best games of the year, as Atsus's violent journey has performed an extremely satisfying battle experience. Between the new list of weapons, brand new environment and improved images, Ghost of Yotei is more than a worthy successor to Ghost of Tsushima; It's an upgrade.
After a massive year for gaming emissions, it was unclear how Ghost of Yotei Would manage to the competition, and although it is unlikely to take home the Game of the Year award, it deserves a solid nomination round. In addition to dividing the breath of Ghost of TsushimaThe Ghost of Yotei Shares some similarities to other heavy finders over the past decade. ATSU's revenge -controlled journey is reminiscent of Ellie's I The last of us part 2While the Western soundtrack sometimes reminds me of Red Dead Redemption 2. In spite of these similarities, Ghost of Yotei Standing on your own, but there is a moment in the game that reminded me of a title that I definitely didn't expect: Hollow Knight: Silksong.
Ghost of Yoteis Takezo The Unmatched Boss Fight gives Hollow Knight: Silksong a run for their money
A side manager who made me think about my life choices
What makes Takezo the unmatched so surprising meeting is that his line of assignment can be started quite early in the game, so it is easy to assume that he would be a fairly easy goal to take down. This is far from the case. Takezo the unsurpassed is meant to be one of the most difficult challenges of the entire game but the road Ghost of Yotei Presents this to you makes it not seem that way. It is a cheeky way for Sucker Punch to keep players on their toes, and it definitely struck my confidence down a stick.
Before taking on Takezo the unmatched, this side -hander requires players to defeat five Ronin who are disciples to the terrible takezo and want to be the ones who take him down. Once these ronin has been defeated, ATSU can finally meet takezo and save with him, which teaches her Dual Katana's Spirit Attack. After that, ATSU has to travel to the top of Mount Yotei, and that's where Takezo takes her for an incredible ride.
Defeat the five Ronin Rewards ATSU with less charm.
Takezo the unmatched show no mercy
If players have not upgraded ATSU properly, the unmatched takezo feels almost impossible. Landing only one strike to ATSU can mean her end. Many of his attacks require players to be completely locked up, as the windows for blockage and parrying are extremely small. It is one of these moments that makes you put down your controller for a second and wonder where you went wrong. It reminded me of when I accidentally met my first Valkyrie in War godAnd Kratos got the battle for a lifetime of seconds.
In terms of similarities with Silk songIt definitely took memories back from meeting the skull Myra for the first time. A little I knew at that time that the Swift Step ability would make this fight a thousand times easier. But even with an upgraded ATSU, Takezo is the unmatched still a solid challenge.
Save takezo the unmatched for the end
When the side assignment is available so early, it is tempting to try to take takezo down, but trust me, patience pays off with this boss. When ATSU becomes a much more skilled fighter and has extra tools at its disposal, Takezo is a struggle that is rewarding without being furious. Ghost of Yotei Have plenty of battle to enjoy, so leaving takezo for one of the latest showdowns is probably the best.
