Today’s game is some more Ghost of Tsushima. I finally got my controller issues resolved! Turns out all I had to do was set the Steam Input to “Default” in the game config. For some reason it seemed to default to disabled there. Now it works perfectly with my trusty PS3 controller.
I wanted to talk about little details in this game. Like how when I was riding through a field Jin leaned down to touch the grass. Really small but cool detail I liked. It also helped to make him feel a little more human because if I was in that situation I’d totally do the same thing and try to grab it.

I also wanted to briefly talk about the photo mode. I’ve been getting into photography recently with a DLSR I bought used, and I have to say this has my second favorite photo mode I think, right after Alan Wake 2.
It does make me wish though for a photo mode with a fake DLSR. I know it’s really niche to want but I’d love to toy with it a little.

To end off the night I wandered off in search of a hat. I didn’t find one, but I found this lovely hot waterfall area with a Haiku. With all Jin had been through in his time frame I thought he deserved a nice break so I sat him there and let him do a Haiku before chilling there until tomorrow. Where I think I might pick it up again now that my controller isn’t giving me issues.


This game runs and looks amazing on the deck. For a while it was given the black “unsupported” mark on the deck because the deck didn’t support the multiplayer mode, so they literally broke off the MP as free dlc. They definitely put work in to make it look and run wonderfully just for the deck though and it shows.
Wasn’t super impressed though past the visuals. Nothing pulls me back to this game. Formula just feels flat.
I just got my deck back after loaning it out, so I might have to give it a try on there out of sheer curiosity
You could do far worse. It’s surprisingly smooth and still looks phenomenal.
I’m with you. I thought it was alright but I never saw what everyone else seemed to see in the game. I do admire it for being both beautiful and immaculately optimised however.
