I'll be honest, I have not been that excited for Ghost of Yotei. Everything I have seen from it so far gives off the vibe of a flashy theme park ride taking place in a distorted setting. I could of course be very wrong and the game could turn out to be spectacular. Yet just as my own opinions on Ghost of Tsushima have continued to go down over the years (overhype, better systems in other games, historical inaccuracies and clichés) I'm left with little interest for what is coming in Ghost of Yotei.
Still, with that being said, I have made the decision that I will be reviewing the game when it comes out soon. Yet the review will likely be different from my normal reviews. With my busy schedule between my Master's program and teaching, I don't want to have to force myself through long hours of gameplay in order to get a review out quickly. Instead, I plan to really get my opinions together once I feel I have gotten a good sense from the game after maybe 10-20+ hours of playing. With this, I will then put out a shorter review of my impressions. I know many of you were likely hoping for a longer review/analysis, but I just don't have the time or energy for that in this case. Either way, I do want to put out something for the game and I hope you will enjoy what is to come!
