Ghost of Tsushima: Legends |OT| Let the Wind Guide Us

I'm really, really trying to hold off playing this until PS5, since my friends want to play it together on the new system, but man, it's hard. So, so hard. I keep thinking, "Maybe I'll just do one co-op match..." That's how it always starts, then later there's running, and -and screaming...
Well, I went with Ronin because dog, but I don't have PS+ and kinda intended to just solo stuff because I don't really like MP, and... yeah. May not have been the wisest of choices. Not having a working ult kinda sucks.
Plus it's throwing me off that there's no in-battle healing? Right? Like, it's been a while since I played the campaign, but the "use a dot to heal yourself" button was Dpad down, which is now the "summon dog" button, right?
So yeah, maybe I'll buy a month of Plus (or see if I qualify for a freebie at this point). But it does seem kinda dumb that it takes so much work to unlock extra classes. Also seems dumb that the Ronin ult doesn't even heal my own HP, so it's literally useless in single player. And presumably of limited utility even in 2p, since anyone can just use R2 to revive someone.
I'm sure for, like, endgame 4P raids having a mass rez is super useful, but... that's a ways away.

Trust me there a lot of streaming once you get up difficulty. Its amazing
Sorry im probably not helping lol
Lol! You're not!! XD XD
I'm probably going to go with Ronin, because in the few MP games I bothered to play, I always preferred support classes. What can I say, I love to buff/heal/revive my teammates. lol
How long does it take to play all the story mission? I wonder if this is something that can become long term gaas game and if people prefer paid expansion route or free2play with microtransaction route.
I just did the first mission with a random player and man, this mode is amazing.
I didn't expect the matchmaking to be so quick. It was near instantaneous. Also they have a fucking ping system in there, thank god for that. How can Sucker Punch get this so right even though it was an extra free mode for a single player game, but CD got it so wrong in Avengers.
Anyway, I really liked the environment design and the little story that they were telling in that chapter as well. Can't wait to play more of this.

You can get an item that heals but it takes up the utility slot where smokebomb goes.
I've played for about 4-5 hours and can't get enough, it's an amazing addition. I'm baffled that this is SP's first attempt at MP.
If you look at the techniques for Ronin you'll see that Ronin gets more heals as you rank up. That revive can also heal you and whole team once you get to rank 5 and pick up that technique.
Seriously.
Also, I'm already liking the unwritten rules/habits that will hopefully grow within the community. After the mission was done me and the other player immediately faced each other and bowed simultaneously lol
That's a great idea. I rarely use discord otherwise i would make a server.
I was gonna ask if there was a server. I can make one and folks can run it.
Here folks go. How do I make it so you have to reply to join?

I played some of the story mode, solo, no matchmaking, no PS+ and it's really cool. Very surprised they allowed that.
I also tried survival but that seems like it might be impossible alone at least with base stats and equipment.
Sucker Punch really going above and beyond with this, and a 60fps PS5 patch to boot. I feel very good about having bought this game!

is there many new enemy types in the game? bosses etc that make the game feel different than the single player mode?
There is a new enemy type, but you fight them like you fight any other enemy. They're like super brutes.

That second story mission has a weird difficulty spike if you aren't playing assassin. Don't love the disciple mechanic.
so no Sekiro-esque creature as boss fight to fight? a bit disappointing, I guess. I thought the art book show some mythical creature that you will fight. maybe in future update
There's a couple of new types that I've seen so far. The bigger thing is modifiers to existing enemies, for instance enemies being linked together so they both need to be killed in a certain time or one will revive, enemies that generate a large healing aura that rapidly heals enemies, and enemies that can only be hurt after enchanting your weapons with a certain element from in level shrines, and that's only the first 3 story missions. So there's a fair amount of twists on the gameplay.
Truly a breath of fresh air after the hot mess I had to deal with Avengers and the subpar Destiny 2 event.
Logged off with both Ronin and Assassin at level 8 - 41 power level, bronze story cleared and I cant wait to wake up tomorrow and clear up survivals in silver!

I leveled Samurai enough to unlock a second class. I went with Assassin for stealth. I've stepped into Silver matches and it's tough but fair. Took about 45 minutes to clear all 20 waves. I thought that was too long and was about to post that as a negative. But, I realized this is only day one and everyone is still gearing up and learning.
I'll give it a solid two weeks before some players are doing Silver in 20 minutes or less and Gold in 30.

My brother and I just played through all the 2 player story levels in a row and it took us like 3 hours. However that's only through the Bronze, basic levels. Stepping up the difficulty really changes things.
fack you guys must be good then. im not too far into the main story but it took me and a buddy 2 hours to get through the first three missions on easy, but we struggled a ton.
just finished a horde mode/whatever its called with randoms, everyone knew what was up and definitely saved my ass a lot.
this extra game mode is insane on top of a goty level game
We definitely treated it like a speed run. One of us Samurai and the other Ronin. Ran in swords blazing the majority of the time haha. This game is seriously remarkable though. I can't believe this is a free mode.
yeah its hilarious, Legends is so better than Avengers, can't believe this is SP's first MP content
So I only played the first story mission. Do other missions have this similar red visual filter?
