the game can be a bit tough early on but then one must remember I am nearly 83 years old but you younger ones should have no difficulty with your sharper reflexes

The game world is absolutely enormous with some of the most beautiful scenery ever created in a AAA game. The main story is epic in scope, and there is so much side content you almost despair of getting it done. It's also mostly quality stuff, with very little fetchit and pizza delivery. The cut scenes are wonderfully produced, with some of the best mocap I've ever seen, and the music is uniformly great. The gameplay is rather different from that of Zero Dawn. The developers seem to want to ensure that Aloy doesn't get overpowered, so she rarely one-shots anything. Instead, the player needs to chip away at a machine's health by hitting weak spots and removing components. Some content creators have made freakish builds that do tremendous damage, but such builds aren't very practical and, in my opinion, go against the spirit of the developers' design ideas. There is a new emphasis on melee fighting which has caused some controversy. I don't care much for it, but I acknowledge that it's one of those things you'll probably enjoy if you get good at it. Upgrading weapons and outfits requires a much bigger commitment than in Zero Dawn. Prepare to spend a long time fighting a lot of big machines to max out a legendary item. On my system (i7 13700k, rtx 4070ti, 32gb ram, 2tb m.2 nvme drive), the game's performance has been excellent. The port to pc has, in my experience, been trouble free with very rare exceptions involving shader compilations. Just be aware that this is a huge game with stellar production values, and this demands relatively serious hardware. Aloy does not look exactly the same way she did in Zero Dawn, but this is because her face is more detailed. No one is conspiring to make her any less pretty than she was. In my opinion, she is still a very attractive video game character. She remains extremely athletic and does not have an excess ounce of fat anywhere on her person, in spite of what people think they're seeing. The game is not perfect, but I have enjoyed it quite a lot.

Okay, if you enjoyed Horizon Zero Dawn and liked the combat, story, etc, then I believe Forbidden West is a great buy and you will have a positive experience with this sequel. FW has pretty much the same exact gameplay experience as ZD but adds some much needed quality of life improvements and some fun new mechanics like flying mounts, underwater diving, and new weapons. However, if you haven't played ZD yet and are curious about the Horizon series, I recommend getting ZD when it's on sale to see if you enjoy the gameplay and story first, then pick this one up if you liked it. However, there are some things I would like to criticize about FW. As you can probably see from some of the other reviews here, a lot of the side quests in this game feel very repetitive. A lot of them start out with Aloy meeting some random NPC(s) who ask her to save their friend, family, squad, etc. Aloy agrees, then when you go to save these people, you usually have to fight a group of machines, save the person, fight another group of machines or miniboss, then you go back to the original quest-giver to finish the quest. It gets very repetitive after awhile and a lot of the side quests just feel like they don't have a lot of weight to them. I would rather have less side quests in the game if that means each quest is more unique and is given a higher standard of quality. I also have a similar complaint to the multitude of copy-paste weapons and outfits in this game. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of weapons and outfits to collect in this game, however you will find that if you compare your earned weapon or outfit models with each other, a lot of them will share the same exact 3D model. All outfits in the game have different stats, but the only visual difference between the ones that share the same 3D model is the color (which is lame because you can dye outfits different colors anyways). This is the same deal with weapons, but there are some that look exactly the same, no difference in color or anything. This ends up meaning that your earned epic/legendary gear can look exactly the same as the rare/common gear you've already acquired. This is lazy game design and is especially frustrating to see when you put in time to get better gear only to have it look exactly the same as the gear you've already earned. To reiterate my last point regarding quests, I want to see quality > quantity in the future.

Pros + Huge improvement in combat from HZD (many more weapons and skills) + Great story + Well written and likeable characters + Exceptional motion capture and voice acting + Lots of fun side content + Satisfying traversal and exploration (flight!) + Absolutely beautiful environment + Highly customisable photo mode + Great soundtrack + Great optimisation Cons - A little too much ragdolling when swarmed and attacked by enemies - Parkour/climbing is kinda stiff - Burning Shores DLC is not as optimised as main game Neutral +/- Melee combat is greatly improved from HZD, but enemy AI is overtuned and their attacks feel very cheap Conclusion I generally have no interest in the repetition of New Game+, but the Horizon games are the only games where I just don't get tired of the gameplay loop. Getting tired of the main story? Go do side quests. Don't want to do side quests? Go to the hunting grounds, melee fighting pits, or take out rebel camps. Don't want to kill anything? Go racing or play board games! Or if you just wanna chill, go explore, enjoy the scenery, and get that perfect shot. IMO, HFW more than deserves to stand amongst the other Open World greats like RDR2 and TW3. I could go on all day about just how many things this game gets right, so I'll just say this: Welcome to gaming perfection.
