Finally a good game set in Japan

But ..but ghost of Midshima

Ghost of Tsushima is visually stunning, no doubt However, beneath that beauty lies an open world that feels static, empty, and lifeless compared to Assassin’s Creed.

Unlike AC games, where cities and towns feel alive with dynamic NPC interactions, Tsushima’s world feels barren.
There are barely any towns, just small villages that feel more like set pieces than actual living communities. NPCs mostly stand around with little to no interaction, and the world rarely reacts to your actions. There are no bustling markets, no lively streets—just scattered outposts and the occasional traveler on the road.

Few Villages exist, but the people in them are mostly static, repeating the same idle animations with little variety. There are no organic events, no real sense of a living, breathing world—just scattered groups of Mongols waiting to be fought and the occasional fox guiding you to a shrine (lmao)

Even Assassins creed II had a more alive open world than GOT.

P.S- the insecure Sony fanboy army , they are just coming here and trolling on these forums , look it wont make ghost of midshima better than AC shadows so go do something better

Spot on! Like don't get me wrong I don't hate GOT, but most everything you said about it is true, to me atleast. That's not to say AC does it better, but for the most part I agree. However, I much prefer GOT fluid movement and combat over ACs and it is leagues better too. As for the NPC's and the "bustling markets" it's not like there's this great trading system so it's whatever really.

GOT has only 2 thing going for it and its the visuals and the story.

Shadows has both of them and more

I enjoyed Ghost of Tsushima and am enjoying this game.

Not sure why so many people believe that it is an either/or choice, that if you enjoy one that you can't enjoy the other.

Why lie?

Are you sure you played GoT? Why would there be bustling towns when they're in the middle of a Mongolian occupation? It takes place on the island of Tsushima. Most people fled to the other islands. They made that very clear in the story.

AC Shadows on the other hand takes place in central Japan which is where the population is concentrated. Kind of a weird comparison you're making here.
