I hope that, after all that, the game still mantain the solid gameplay for the ranger archetype. I really understand the frustration of the melee combat in HZD, but I realy love the tactical aspect when runting machines. After all, Alloy is a mere human fighting giant metal monsters. Make sense not getting close to those things.
True story. What's a tiny human woman with spear going to do to a two ton machine? Hell, what would 7 foot tall 350lb strong man competitor do to some of these machines?
Couldn't agree more. Loved the hunting/tactical aspects of the game
Yeah thats what I didn't understand with people that were complaining about the melee aspect. I'm like.......I have a bunch of cool bows with specialty arrows. Why in the hell would I use melee against a freaking t-rex sized machine? For like 95% of the game I was as far as I could get from the machines. Getting in close was never on my radar as far as taking down machines was concerned
The character is not fun or believable when fighting alone.
Complete waste of an interesting world and big enemies.
@@darknesswave100 I believe graphic and cinematic story telling is the main selling point in this game, tactical combat is limited, not like as creative as mgs phantom pain or botw, and direct combat isn't as fun as monster hunter or dark souls
Got a PS5 a few months back and this is the game I bought it for. Ghost of Tsushima & Miles Morales kept me solid until now but HFW was the big wait. After that bring on Elden & GOW.
Literally my situation
Bro I still need to finish rachet and clank, final fantasy 7 remake, returnal and the ghost of tsushima dlc ghost of ikki lol too many games to play right now I'm probably gono buy this since I finished the first one and then it will be another game I need to finish
Why use that image as the thumbnail y’all know the game looks great on every image but that one.
Play ghosts again on ps5.
I must be getting old when having a hand glider in a video game is derivative of breath of the wild. really?
Taking every element about the original game and making it better, which is pretty much what any video game sequel should strive for. I’m definitely looking forward to Horizon: Forbidden West.
I’m looking forward for a sale, £70. No way. This isn’t Zelda.
@@lesserspottedmugwump.363 true, zelda is no where near this game right?
@@lesserspottedmugwump.363 No its better
And taking elements from Arkham games, zelda botw, witcher 3 and ac odyssey. Yeah very nice.
@@Sir.YeetusIII lmao. That's what Nintendo hardliners want you to think
I really enjoyed the first game. The story was great and the combat made me have to pause and think about how a kill would go down. It would usually devolve into me screaming and being chased by like 10 machines, but that's just because I get greedy.
The one thing that I do hope is improved in this game is the climbing. I know they showed some new things involved with that, but I really hope it's better and less awkward than in the first game!
Lmao this, i do this every 5mins
That’s what I love about Horizon. It’s the only game I’ve played that makes me access an enemy thoroughly before engaging in a fight. Other games have tried to do the same but haven’t hit the spot and I find myself just jumping right into the fight in those games. Horizon is the only game I’ve played that has nailed that aspect.
Absolutely loved HZD, One of the very very few games I've actually got the platinum, Not a trophy hunter but really wanted that platinum, Even went back and made sure I got the NG+ and DLC trophies after as well 😂
The main story was cool but all the side quest was just all girl boss trash
My first platinum
@@deadnorth8648 here y’all come with this nonsense
NG+ on ultra hard grew hair on my chest
@@Die-Angst Of course, I still love it man, Just havent played in a while but will be starting a new playthrough tonight and re-doing frozen wilds as well 🙌❤
What I love about horizon is the story and the mysterious but rich lore of the world and the gameplay is so much fun,there's a lot variety when it comes to weapons and machines,almost everything in horizon is connected,guerrilla putted a lot details in the game and they even teased multiple times about the red blight and the forbidden west, I highly suggest you watch the complete history of horizon by random side quest!
It’s one of my favorite stories in any video game, and in sci-fi in general. The clues you can find and the order they’re presented to you in let you kinda figure out what’s going on by yourself, but with enough held back so that the major plot points still have a lot of impact. And all the little bits of random info you pick up may actually matter, since they’re the only hints we’re given as to the true origin of the signal that initiated Gaia’s breakdown. I’m hoping a lot of that comes into play in this new story, because I’m really liking some of the theories that are out there.
Zero dawn was a masterpiece. One of my fav all time games. Exploring the world/lore is def the highlight. I really hope they put enough twists in the second story to keep us engaged, as most of the world/lore questions has now been answered.
Meeeh... If you talking about all that crap that you listen gathering "audio" and scanning stuff was not it chief
some people really need to read some books to understand how bad/small are some stories in videogames lore
I like games which when you strike an enemy you see the damage through parts falling down or tearing apart. Not just slashing until the health bar drops.
The melee was not at all weak in HZD... It was extremely efficient at breaking armor parts off enemies! Basically like the sonic arrow, low health damage but very high armor damage.
No it was weak, animations took 2x long as Dark souls and in Dark souls, enemies don’t jump around as much as robots in this game.
It was boring as shit though.
Kinda tricky tho. The amount of times I’ve tried to melee attack only for the animation to swing a completely different direction than intended is too many haha
yep like the arrow... but worse LOL
@@Friendly_Neighborhood_ cause ur playing on a peasant Ps4 lol . On PC its soo fluid and better
I always find it interesting how most people think that BoTW was the first game to use a glider. There have been so many open world games that have used that mechanic way before it even came out
Nintendrone mentality it does not exist unless Nintendo claimed they created it
Fortnite too! Am I right? 😆
Yeah, non Zelda fans playing BotW. But gliding was in Wind Waker.
I mean wind waker did that you know that???
Yeah but that's a common thread with anything really. Go read a YA fantasy series about magic and all the reviews on goodreads and the like are comparing it to Harry Potter. Or how every shounen that comes out nowadays is copying naruto. People tend to think that the most popular example of a trope is the original, and nothing can ever look like it or they're being unoriginal. "Oh a bad guy who was secretly on the good side? They stole that from Harry Potter!" "That character is wielding two swords! They're ripping off Kirito from SAO!"
It seems like that habit will never die off and people are always going to compare common traits to the most popular example.
I'm so impressed with how attentive Guerilla has been towards listening to the community. They really have a badass team of Devs working on this sequel. Zero Dawn ran close to flawlessly for me and I tried many times to push the game to its limits and it rarely faltered.
For me the movement and melee is everything! I love the fluid traversal and melee mechanics. The archery in the first one was already my exact preference. So this just literally my perfect game
I love how Guerrilla made a complete good game for the first one. Polish up AI, provide good UI and feedback, build a perfect open world, good combat and traversal controls, write great characters and stories, design a bunch of unique and interesting enemies, make up a cohesive backstory. All these were achieved in Zero Dawn. In other words, the made the base engine perfect so the next games can build on top of them later. That’s how you make a sequel. I’m super excited for Forbidden West and I can’t wait what new things Aloy will learn and how she’ll deal with them.
I’m hyped for this game. The first one is one of my favorite games to date.
And Lance Reddick as Sylens was the icing. Shame he didn’t get much screen time
I'd say that Sylens actually is very much present in Zero Dawn, we just don't get a lot of info about his backstory. He founded the eclipse and might be a banuk but that's about it.
Though he seems like he will be very much present in HFW which is exciting. Wonder what happened after the post credits scene with him and Hades.
The thing i like about this sequel is that the improvment wasnt only graphicaly but also the gameplay and new machines this game will be awesome
She's a butch girl boss...🤔
@@deadnorth8648 and?
I didn't even notice the graphical improvments, and that's not a bad thing, goes to show how beautiful the first game already was.
we don't know about the graphical improvement yet... don't forget that there is always a downgrade waiting for you in the corner
That grapple is going to a) add some pretty awesome options to exploration and b) probably lead to some pretty hilarious glitches and some solid speed running skips more than likely.
Has anyone else noticed how when you're flying, if your Sunwing's wing hits the water, the water reacts. It's pretty cool.
I hope they enrich the characters as well as they have the lore. I think that was a disappointing facet of Zero Dawn. I don’t care if Aloy herself has a love interest, but her comradery with her allies should exhibit development.
This!
The most disappointing aspect of Zero Dawn were the characters. Even Aloy, she is too dramatic and serious, kind of boring protagonist tbh. If they improve that, this'll definitely be better than the first one.
The lore was definitely a cool idea but they should drop all the girl boss stuff that stemmed from gamer gate
Its clearly not selling games and it pushes all people playing game away even more
@@deadnorth8648 aloy wasn't girl boss in the 1st game.
@@umarb7325 Yeah I don’t know what he was talking about because I didn’t get that from aloy at all. Sure she was pretty serious, and a bit boring in story scenes, she didn’t have the same poor writing choices other characters have due to forced corporate gender change.
@@deadnorth8648 I didn’t think Aloy was “girl boss”. She had her ass handed to her many times and she rose up from pretty much nothing
I can’t wait to play next month , the sequel already looks like huge improvement over the first game!
i hope that they've changed the mount galloping mechanic, instead of constantly having to press X to go full speed, just use the traditional L3 button toggle.
This game can't come soon enough. It looks beautiful.
Would be nice is they allow the machines to follow you around after you take control of them. Would make some combat more fun rather than in the first game you’d have to get lucky for your machine to come back you up.
I'd say the biggest change is that it's being advertised alongside a console that does not exist.
I'm currently replaying Horizon Zero Dawn to get the story fresh on my mind for the sequel, but I can't stress this enough by saying the melee combat and the awkward voice acting are some of the biggest drawbacks from the original. I hope they get it right this time 🤞🏻
for its definatly the sidequests, they suck so much ass in HZD, you run all over the world and collect all that dammed crap, flowers, figures and what have you, and the rewards are nothing special. only one side quest, i really worth doing and thats the one that gives you an upgraded spear, right at the start of the game.
@@ewenyap3018 Those are collectibles that are tied to the lore of the game,the rewards didn't really matter!
@@ewenyap3018 collectibles give you lore and more peaces to the puzzle. If you dont care... dont collect them? Also since when do collectibles count as side quests?
@@hasanitoro7298 i definatly did care, and i am not talking about the logs. but the banuk figures and metal flowers...
@@tossacointoyourwitcherOriginal well EXCUUUUUUUUUUSE me then, side content then, are you happy now?,
My concern is the story.
I loved the first one, it is on my replay list with the ps5 upgrade but for me it is about story and I an concerned that this element won't be as strong.
I am still really looking forward to this game and I hope my concerns are completely unfounded and that they have created a masterpiece
What makes u think it won't be
It will be extremely hard for this game to replicate how engaging the first one's story was, mainly because of the mystery and intrigue it had. The only way I see the story being better is if the characters are improved, which was my main complaint of the first one.
@@maudelhoyo4019 you're high af. The main story sucked balls
@@dread1262 ?? The story was decent not bad, not great like farcry 3.
It had its moment and the start felt really good, later it started to fall off and the end didn't feel great when ik i will be betrayed by that echo dude. It was pretty cut and dry about the plot twist, it was as if they didn't want to make it surprising (i had a hunch that zero dawn is a lie to give people hope, ik that the end will have betrayal arc, what i wasn't expecting was Rost dying in the start, i thought we would go on a journey to find him) . I want better side quests and npc interaction, maybe a romance angle or ability to have some rpg element to enjoy the universe without chasing enemies.
@@dread1262 why?
1. Aloy herself
I hope we get more powerful traps, I cannot deal with robots that can take 15 fully upgraded tripwires
play on easy mode :) (and no, i am not trying to be mean or condecending)
@@ewenyap3018 don't get me wrong, I'm a real casual, and rarely will I ever play games above normal. But just lowering the difficulty of the game as whole does not really help, because the game itself is not really that difficult, lowering the difficulty further would simply trivialize combat. My problem is that traps are currently lacking efficiency. I would need to use about 50 tripcaster shots to get enough resources to make 12 caster ammo. It can't even pay for itself. That would not be a problem if a few traps could contribute meaningfully to combat, but they currently can't. Small game is not worth the resources to trap them, big game is too strong to be taken down by even a full quiver of fully upgraded tripcaster shots. It's like they were put in the game just to sell the idea of stealth gameplay, but no consideration was put towards making it truly viable.
Some of the machines were soooo tanky on the higher difficulty. You would basically have to go scavenge more resources and craft all new ammo afterwards
@@Pimp.My.Forklift Bro you just want to lay traps all over and sit in the corner?
@@umarb7325 sometimes, yeah. The game comes with a whole system for you to highlight pathing, there are multiple types of traps to place for every type of situation, there is an entire stealth skill tree. So it should be reasonable to expect that traps should work as traps instead of as worse arrows. If the game was supposed to be played exclusively as some sort of maniac running head first into every robot you meet, like your bow is some sort of automatic rifle, there would be no need for for such stealth options.
It also has 3D graphics like Breath of the wild, and an open world like Breath of the wild.....
There are other games in existence, for example Assassins Creed had free climb before breath of the wild was even thought of
they said everything is 100% claimable besides inside tribes.
Shadow of colossus had a glider before breath of the wild, BOTW did not inevent a glider in a video game 😑
Its Nintendo mentality, if they didn't do it it did not exist.
There was gliding in Wind Waker. No real Zelda fans are making the claim you are saying, lol
@@Die-Angst if I said has would that make my sentence be grammatically correctly
@@bk6555 I never called out any zleda fans. I just said people need to get out of the mindset that whatever zelda had in the game they did not invest in a video game first. the amount of games that gets compared to it is unreal
@@NoBSSpider you mean like that one
I know it’s an unpopular opinion but I didn’t love HZD. I had way to high expectations from other people. I just could not get into the game like I’ve done with other open world games before. The characters weren’t that interesting, I like Aloy and Rost and the story overall was okay but, I wish the game made a stronger connection between Rost and the player so the player would feel more of what Aloy was feeling when losing Rost. Kinda like tlou made us love The relationship between Ellie and Joel. I loved the visuals of the game and walked around in the game just observing stuff because it was so beautiful. The story just didn’t do it for me. The repetitive side quests didn’t really help either.
I NEVER 100% games. But I did with Zero Dawn. Such an incredible game. Very excited for this!!
Me too. Wasn’t that hard to do
I REALLY hope that there is more incentive to explore. Hopefully the boosted side quests will help with this
This is one of the most impressive looking sequels i've seen recently!
Keyword is looking
@@deadnorth8648 You are a joke..
Lost my data when my PS4 died in 2020 so had to start back over almost from the beginning. I've had more time to play after finishing Ghost of Tsushima, but still haven't gotten that far so I'll be jumping into Forbidden West immediately after finally beating Zero Dawn.
That said, I'm loving how both Guerrilla and Santa Monica have improved traversal for their respective games. Playing Zero Dawn is so painfully slow after having seen it in the gameplay reveal.
@@Die-Angst Worst takes ever
@@Die-Angst you can say any AAA title is overrated thats just as a valid opinion as its cold outside. If you are worried about saves you can move them to a USB stick it takes about 4s to plug it in. You have no one to blame for your saves but yourself 🤷♂️
@@Die-Angst
Ghost is a great game but i will not lose time with your "opinion"
@@Die-Angst You said "if only you had cloud saves etc." You dont need a cloud to protect your saves, so your hate opinion is invalid. You are a troll who cant even put in to words why you dislike something except "ERRR majority wrong i right".
@@Die-Angst thats not a assumption that is a expected and a reasonable conclusion, and its a fact you can not put your opinion in to words.
They absolutely have to do the flying mounts on this game! They have to! A month and five days and Aloy is back!
Totally agree, have the devs stated anything about flying mounts?
@@UPHENOS I think the only thing they did was to acknowledge that they knew that everyone wanted to see them in the new game.
I
A great way to implement such mechanic would be to leave it locked until after the main questline is finished so you don’t there would actually be some challenge when fighting the dinos and not have to resort to flying your way out of danger.
LOL that thumbnail is too funny looking,
This, Dying light and Elden Ring are my most anticipated games. Can't wait to play this games
I love all the improvements! Enjoyed HZD, but i hope that HFW will have a huge open world as HZD.
The basement dwellers are legit obsessed with this thumbnail.
This is going to be one of those sequels that is going to make it hard to go back to the first game.
OK, I know it's been a few years since I played the first game but... I'm pretty sure when you put on the clothing in the game; it gave you some sort of special ability. Like, being able to sneak more quitely. Or, take less hits from "___ element." 😅
I don't particularly like her "new" face. It seems to have lost some feminine traits. They should have kept the one for Zero Dawn which was perfectly fine. We don't need Aloy to look like a supermodel, but they could give her a small dose of estrogen before launch.
I don't care about her being pretty or ugly or w/e, its just that.. she has jowls, despite being a hyper active, 20 year old, incredibly inshape, there is no way she'd have John Goodman jowls like that.
@@keithfilibeck2390 also the new look reminds me of when my dog ate a bee and her face got all puffy
Agreed, it’s fun to have a little crush on the main character. She is like the girl you liked in high school then years after you see she got fugly.
She ate a lot apparently. And cross fit is not enough. It seems like having a normal good looking character is wrong nowadays. I remember playing fighting games or others with a cute character and it felt good. I’ve never thought…. This is a fighting game, she should be uglier
@@keithfilibeck2390 Yeah she looks like she aged 20 years and drank a lot.
The thing i care most about the sequel is its world. Zero dawn world is my second favourite gaming world cause how unique and beautiful it is i hope they make it even better(my first is witcher 3)
I was really hoping to see a cool massive spinosaurus robot this time, guess we don't get that yet
I hope they improve the melee combat. I tried replaying hzd a while ago. But when I try melee combat I could not believe it was that bad.
I loved the first game but the gameplay is so mediocre but that's because Sony fans take graphics over gameplay so they mainly focus on graphics over anything else
@@haunteddreams7856 yea that's not sony fans😭 the game was jus trash
I just picked it up on PC during the winter sale after reading glowing reviews and holy shit it caught me off guard how horrible the combat is. You end up constantly swinging past the enemy since there’s no lock on, the machines move so jarringly and suddenly that hitting crit spots can be near impossible without stunning or roping first, and the enemies will constantly wind up these giant attacks that are near undodgable because the hitbox on the attack is so much bigger than it should be.
I spend most encounters standing in high places where the enemies can’t reach me instead because the health pools are so large and combat is so bad.
My only complaint in HZD is that zooming system when fighting big machines in close combat. I hope they fix that in HFW
@@TheRisingTide89 what?
I’m curious how they’ll continue with Aloy. Her story begun and was wrapped up with the first game. As it stands for now Aloy has no more motivation. She found the information she sought. She saved her tribe. I just hope the motivation isn’t weak.
I would go in expecting the motivation factor to be less exciting that the first game.. I mean it's hard to beat. The father / daughter relationship, learning about the 'tribe' and the land. Definitely excited to explore the setting more, and LOVED the combat of the first so I'm super excited to see that evolve... but I am fully ready for the story to be lesser than the first and hope to be proved wrong.
Bit of a cliff hanger with Sylens though. I'd love to see him make a big return, hes a great character.
She has tons of motivation, there is content to fill in the gaps of what you are missing.
I have no idea how did you miss it, but there is a whole plotline what builds up the theme of future expansions. I don't wanna spoil it for others, so i'll ask this to jug your memory: WHAT made the original swarm go rogue? WHAT attacked and disconnected GAIA?
Her motivation now is to RESTORE Gaia and Apollo. Her motivation is to find all the rogue subordinate functions and bring them back to Gaia.. they are out there doing who knows what.. the biggest thing is to restore Apollo. The tribes deserve that knowledge of the Old Ones. And it would be honoring Saminas last wish.
For someone who has fully upgraded the melee in Horizon, it's a bit overpowered
Depends what difficulty you play at
I really like how they've improved the climbing system. It's not something as free or insane like botw's system, but it still lets you realistically scale around objects like Shadow of Mordor's system.
So they are actually making an already great game even better? I hope they can pull it off, these changes look great!
The first game was a solid foundation for the franchise and every aspect seems to be ratcheted up a notch or two in the sequel. It looks to be a hell of a lot of fun, and it'll be interesting to see how the franchise continues to evolve with each entry.
Milk it like COD 😔
You watch
@victor Charles well cod comes out every year so things get repetitive and not much upgrades will happen. This game took its time to develop. It won’t suffer like cod

@@maudelhoyo4019 I dunno I don't trust it.
IF there is a Horizon 3 that's when you'll know it will be milked
It's hard to believe! how amazing this game could be even if it just lives up to the first one. I'm only mid 30s but can you imagine seeing this when you was like 10 and someone telling you it's would be a reality one day, not long now and it will be
I think im the only person who actually loved taking down bandit camps... it was a lot of fun once you figured out all the short cuts and hidden paths around the camps. And also when you had the perks that let you "strike from above" or "strike from below" idk i really liked bandit camps in the first game!
Got my "PS5 Special Edition pre-ordered already. Can't wait to play this 🙌🏽 . . . Fantastic video "Gameranx 👍🏼
I'm super excited for the new combat. I found myself using the same ammo type for each weapon and actually used a LOT of melee despite it being weak so I'm eager to see how they change things up.
I loved HZD and I'm going nuts waiting for this game! But!!! Seeing as getting a PS5 is next to impossible, I'll have to wait. I love my PS4, but all new games on Sony will be PS5 for me. No point going backwards in my mind and I want to see this game at it's best.
Thanks for the video and cheers all.
Dude PS5 is so awesome 😎
@@Die-Angst he still loves it, he just said was cause the game came out a while ago
@@Die-Angst Good reply and indeed I should say love the game.
Thanks and cheers
PS5 is definitely obtainable if you go through the right channels. Either try to get one directly from Sony or follow certain Twitter accounts that announce when PS5 drops are about to happen. Yes, scalpers are still as active as ever, but if you’re persistent you should be able to land an order within a few days to a week.
@@Bp2181991 Good advice. I have to admit, after seeing the scalper prices on Walmart and Amazon, I just stopped looking. I'll deal with Sony.
Thanks and cheers.
YOUR INTRO SOUND IS THE TRUTH!
2022 is going to be a godsend for good video games
I adored HZD, even with the flawed melee combat. I'm super excited to see where HFB goes with the story after the ending with Sylens
What was the melee flaw? I used melee for a giant chunk of my time with the game
It was very mundane and not very dynamic. Light strike, heavy strike, critical attack and that’s it… I didn’t dwell on it too much, though. It was still solid 💪🏼
Imo the flawed melee combat was a GOOD thing. It emphasized on how your a fucking human, not some avatar of wrath or spider powered abberation, in melee combat these machines can and will anally fuck you. I mean sure on lower difficulties you can get away with melee against bigger creatures but on higher you use it on anything bigger than a scrapper and its nite nite.
Yeah the melee was pretty stale, but it had it's good points. Like after getting some of the later skills, you can pretty much knock down almost any machine. Which helps if they wont get off your ass lol.
How is the glider "from BotW"? Not at all like Zelda invented the glider.
The first thing that came to mind was the parachute from Just Cause.
I am ready for this!
Got me collector's ed in the bag... now it's just a case of waiting some more...
Well done gameranx putting her face front and center for that title. We see and approve.
My excitement for this game is immeasurable.
This and god of war have me so hyped.

@@Phoen1x728 never heard of it though?
The story and combat in the first horizon are pretty original, amazing and engaging . Horizon is not a game that you would say "it's similar to..." or "horizon looks like this game "... nope.
Something that I'd like to be improved is the way you choose potions and traps... Sometimes I spend like 5 seconds trying to find the correct one, while I'm escaping from a bunch of enemies with 2 points of life
I can't get over how great the sand and animations look. I might just be sold on getting this gem.
It’s apparent they really want this to be an RPG with more customisable content that interact with the world.
haha they changed the thumbnail...😁
I always found it interesting, the complaint about not being able to melee a GIANT, LAZER SHOOTING, TREMOR ENDUCING, ARMOR PLATED, TYRANOSAURUS-REX with.... a sharp stick. In what universe would the correct option be to get into melee range with 90% of the enemies in this game. Basic instinct would tell you to keep your distance and attack from a far. It's quit LITERALLY how we hunt anything remotely dangerous now...
Yeah, even in the past, we used spears and bows to hunt lions and mammoths. We rarely got up close to hunt them. And as time passed, we've created more and more cowardly weapons, to fire from further away. Firearms, snipers, cannons, missiles, nuclear warheads. Now we can press a button and a country on the other side of the earth is blown up.
But no, Aloy should be an alpha male and brawl these giant deadly machines, much scarier than any creature or man we fight today, up close and personal. One wrong move and no more Aloy.
Funny thing is, despite the rave reviews and great word of mouth, I avoided Zero Dawn for a long time. My wife picked it up on a recommendation, played through it, said "This is amazing!" and um "Suggested" I give it a go, lol. she regretted that as I could not put it down. A Platinum, DLC, and many hours later I'm clamouring for the sequel. FW looks bloody amazing and I cannot wait to get my hands on it. Also Can't wait to see what a PS5 does with it's world. Why'd they have to release this and ER so close together?
I got into Horizon later than most bit bit quickly fell in love with this series. I am really trying my hardest to not board the hype train & be as fair & unbiased when it's released but damn is it difficult to not be stoked for this to come out
If its even half as good as the first, I think we will have few problems
I think the polish of this game is going to be beyond my expectations!
I really hope they update and refine the inventory system. It was too cluttered in Zero Dawn and also too limiting. Nothing more frustrating than being made to collect literally everything in that game then being told you didn't have enough space to hold it all.
Normally I don’t get too hyped before games release cause I usually can tell about how good they’ll be in the trailers but this one got me hyped af it looks like so much fun and like it’s horizon zero dawn expanded which is exactly what I was wanting
I'm hyped it's one of only two games I've ever pre-ordered. I for one actually liked most of the side quests in HZD, in my opinion it's a solid game great story, great gameplay overall. I'm looking forward to playing the sequel
Same but i hated the sidequests
I agree with Gameranx. Side quests were *fine*. They weren't bad by any means, and the ones that contributed to the lore were much appreciated, but they were generally mediocre. Perhaps if the npcs you interacted with were more engaging. I'm looking forward to the sequel. The combination of better npc interactions and "better" sidequests should prove an interesting and hopefully rewarding experience.
Side note: I don't really need a "reward" to complete sidequests. The adventure alone is usually enough for me to play it. Though it definitely feels a lot better to get some unique item, rather than 50 rusty bolts and a metal wire.
The things I love about this game is the environment, the soundtrack, the graphics and combat
spear in zero dawn was dope, once you had the final spear fully upgraded, close and personal was a nonissue.
Except it was under powered af. Give me four mod slots for my spear and i'm good.
I played HZD on pc but I am so hyped for when HFW is launched on PS5. Never been so hyped for a game that i cant play on launch
We know gorilla can push the graphics more if it built only for the ps5 but they done a amazing job for a crossgen
Originally it was an exclusive to the PS5 only but since there is a chip shortage and scalpers they decided to put it on both platforms
Just got my Ps5 !!! Ready for this one .
Congratulations on the new PS5
Congrats !!! Crazy to get one but here in france impossible so far
No. 11 you don't pull your spear out of your magic pocket for melee atacks anymore, but its persistently dispalyed on your back. A detail, but very nice!
One thing I would like to see is more lore on the design of the machines from the “old ones”. It’s clear that these machines were originally designed as terraforming machines just by watching them and asking myself what is the purpose of say the crabs. I would like to learn some in game lore about the design of them.
Why does Aloy look like Jimmy from Bully
Don't really know why they beefed her face up to be honest
I loved HZD when it came to PC. Surprisingly smooth on my 1660 Ti mobile graphics. It felt like a mix of Far Cry, GTA, AC Odyssey, Witcher 3, Watch Dog and Fallout, in a very satisfying good way. It had everything I liked in a open world action game. I can't say the same about Cyberpunk sadly, which I'm currently playing.
Jesus, that game is still not fixed?! Its been a fing YEAR.
@@Die-Angst I'm not, and you comment so much.
@@Die-Angst well if I put it at the end it will sound like I'm asking Jesus about the game.
"Hit and run tactics" more like GUERILLA warfare
Didn't have a clue about the existence of Strike up until now. Very intrigued!
These graphics are stupid beautiful. Can't believe how ridiculously pretty it all is. And this is cross-gen. Just dumbfounding.
@@Die-Angst And judging by what we've seen, it might be a good hame
I know this already has a lot of hype and anticipation around it, but it almost feels not enough? Like this stuff looks AMAZING like my gawd! They took an already great game that had 10/10 features across the board and just set them to override and surpassed those great features! I don't know man, maybe I've just not enough in game-talking spheres. I just loved this game. Loved the exploration, the sort of survival aspect, and fighting big hunkin dinosaur machines, and overall just messing around in this incredible world. Can't wait for Forbidden West!
There was no free climbing in the first game, but there was jumping. If you had enough patience, you could get to almost every place in a map. (One time I’ve jumped all the way to where initiation had place)
The wait is killing me. Can’t believe we’re only month away. I am going to harass this game. I’ve already filed a missing persons report on myself in advance 5 days after release date. I haven’t been seen since.
I'm so excited for horzion forbidden west it's my most anticipated game of this year I loved horzion zero dawn
Developers need to take a page from the melee combat. it's blends cinematic movement along with player interaction really well
As Someone who experienced this universe for the first time on PC like 2 years after it originally released...it bums me out its once again only coming to play station...I really really dont want to wait another 2 years before I can play this game myself
Is no-one talking about Aloy's face change? I don't care why they change it as long as they give a good explaination in lore, but if they can't then I'm kinda disappointed.
Played 125 hrs of horizon in the last month (had 4 weeks off finally got a PS5 right before and discovered the game for me 😅 so addicted now…) and her face just looks awful compared to zero Dawn. She looks almost as if she’s developing Down syndrome face by the minutes or something. Can’t say exactly which parts are different but it’s awful 🤷🏻♂️
Who cares its a a bunch of pixels of a fictional character
@@emeka490Lol. Nice straw man
@@shootermanplus1812 strawman or not what I said is a fact it is a bunch of pixels of a fictional character imagine getting butthurt over it.
@@emeka490 Sounds good to me. With that logic I can wipe my arse on a canvas and sell it to a big international art gallery. I'll be rich!! Thanks Emeka.
Horizon forbidden west, dying light 2, elden ring! Awesome time to be a gamer.
👍
@@Die-Angst that sounds a lot like an opinion (a uniquely shit one too)
@@Die-Angst no one said anything about censoring anything.. are you feeling okay?

Gimlee - “THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE”
man this game has an overwhelming amount of features, so many weapons, so many movement possibilities, so many ways of killing machines, underwater gameplay, overriding new machines. its very easy to get lost in such a wide freedom of choice. this game has a potential to have the best shooting hybrid combat system ever
I played HZD because steam recommends it after 300 hours in TW3.
I am pretty skeptical at first, but HZD manage to make combat more fun than TW3.
As for side quest and world experience only RD2 can be compared to TW3
TW3?
Yep. Open world emergent gameplay RDR2>TW3, emotional resonance of the story TW3=RDR2; Side quests TW3>RDR2;
The Witcher 3 is my overall favorite game since it’s also in my favorite genre but damn RDR2 is a very close second.
HZD has only one thing better and that’s its combat. The story is fine. Acting and character animations are wooden. The open world is beautiful but boring.
This game looks stunning
A shame I moved to pc last year, although at least I can play god of war on pc and hopefully blood borne soon too ( loved that game )
I'm so grateful to have both a good PC and a PS5, but I really wish all games were accessible to everyone on all platforms.
Pretty sure they will release it on PC as well :) Maybe we'll have to wait a little longer, but they did add the first Horizon Zero Dawn on PC!
@@b3fuddled196 "It would appear that, for now, Horizon Forbidden West will not be coming to PC. Horizon Forbidden West will be a PlayStation exclusive, coming to the PS5 and the PS4, but not to other platforms."
Don't think so sadly.. and even if it did come to PC they would release it atleast a year and a half after the PS release, also you would probably need a pretty good PC as the ported version wouldn't be optimized for PC.
It'll likely come to PC in 2025
how does one -move- from PS4 to PC?
i can’t imagine there was any reason or value in selling a PS4 to try and fund a better than PS5 gaming PC.
The faces. They went all mass effect Andromeda on this
Always nice to see a Dutch game do so well as a Dutchman. We don't get much attendance. So this is always nice to see
I just can't wait for this game
