Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut PC cross-play and system requirements revealed
PlayStation overlay, cross-play, and Trophy support!
Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is the first PlayStation title on PC that uses a new PlayStation overlay, which includes your Friends list, Trophies, Settings, and your Profile. This feature is available on Windows PCs and will be accessible from the in-game menu or, for keyboard players, by pressing the “SHIFT +F1” shortcut on your keyboard.
I’m envious of anyone getting to play this for the first time. This game was amazing.
28I'll accept your jealousy with grace and aplomb, because I've wanted to play this since release but haven't owned a PlayStation since the PS2.
If someone was playing the first Dark Souls for the first time and wanted advice, I'd say something like
To time your parry, watch the enemy's hand when they swing to attack; when their hand starts to come down, parry
Can I ask for any tips like that you might care to impart? 😊
12That souls tip helps too but watch their feet instead of their hands

I've waited all this time for it to release on PC. Looking forward to it!
5The game was great. Definitely not perfect, as a lot of the open world stuff was samey, but the combat was so good I almost didn't give a shit.

Do we really need overlays like this? I'd be fine with just playing the game.
18I don't know how many different overlays I could have. Like at least 3 or 4. But I couldn't tell you how to activate most of them besides Steam and Nvidia.
10Yeah, I use Steam. I don't care about PS trophies.

Doesn't the Steam overlay already do this?
6It does, but Sony didn't go through the crash and burn phase on PC yet so they need to add their own fancy overlay before killing it in a few years.
8It sounds like you can access your actual PS network friends and earn PS trophies. I hope that is in addition to achievements on Steam itself and not a replacement. I would imagine many people getting the PC version don't have a PlayStation in the first place.

I think this has to be in the contention for most overrated game of all time.
Before you grab your pitchfork, I'm not saying it's a bad game. It's fine. The combat is solid, the boss fights are fun and it's very pretty. Was very well optimised too, ran like a dream on an old, fat first gen PS4.
It's not the greatest game of all time though, or anything close to it. The open world is your garden variety UbiSoft style, the tone and the writing is all in a stoic monotone with only crumbs of Kenji to break it up, and the quest design is uninspiring at best and awful at worst. On top of it all the game is way too long considering those flaws.
I know it's been hyped up, but I still recommend waiting for a sale.
1What in the hell equivalent on modern system requirements would a 1660 Super be? The thing is still getting me good performance in most things, even new things, but the requirement lists have all moved on to RTX models for nVidia's side of things. I can guess from this I might still get 60fps at 1080p on Medium settings; but maybe not if that all depends on DLSS being employed which my card doesn't have.
