Ghost of Tsushimasomehow managed to doAssassin’s Creedin Japan beforeAssassin’s Creed Shadowscame out.
Perhapsthe biggest wayAssassin’s Creed ShadowsbeatsGhost of Tsushimais in its stealth mechanics.
I wasn’t particularly fond ofGhost of Tsushima’ssurprisingly and rather ironically limited stealth sandbox.
Of course, it comes with a slight caveat.
It isn’t just stealth whereShadowssucceeds.
It is so good, that it’s the main reason why I’mexcited forGhost of Yotei.
By contrast,Assassin’s Creed Shadows’competent combat model feels significantly inferior.
That isn’t to say thatAC Shadows’combat is bad, as that is far from the truth.
I rather enjoy barreling through ashigaru as Yasuke or desperately attempting to hold my own as Naoe.
WhereAssassin’s Creed Shadowsreally struggles with combat is its difficulty.
However,whereAssassin’s Creed Shadowsreally struggles with combat is its difficulty.
This really shouldn’t be the case, and absolutely isn’t inGhost of Tsushima.

Even the game’s Expert difficulty implies that Yasuke shouldn’t have too much trouble with combat.
At leastShadowslets you do that.
