7. Ghost Of Tsushima

There's a quality to Ghost of Tsushima's overall "feel" that's hard to put into words. It comes the first time you take a moment to simply play the flute in between missions, watch the sun set while writing a haiku over a beautifully still lake full of tiger lilies.

It's an entire open-world experienced without checkbox mission lists or intrusive waypoint markers - instead letting the wind itself guide you from one blood-soaked battle to the next.

There's a beauty and a viciousness to everything Jin Sakai does in the name of protecting Tsushima itself, and as the credits are rolling - regardless of which ending you pick - the journey is what really stands out.
