Horizon has enchanted me again. After a slow start, a graphically beautiful, sophisticated sequel comes, polished in every aspect, and underscored by a great soundtrack on top of that. The sequel was simply a success. Everything that worked before works even slightly better now. [Issue#317]
If you loved Horizon Zero Dawn, you’ll no doubt love Forbidden West as well. It’s a glorious sequel that improves on the foundations laid by the original in pretty much every way, with an unbelievable amount of content to discover and some of the best visuals I’ve ever seen. It’s a must-play for PS5 owners looking to get the most out of their console.
The main conclusion that we have arrived at after spending hours and hours with Horizon Forbidden West is very simple, the new generation of consoles is finally here. No, this is not Playstation's first exclusive worthy of mention, but it's visually imposing, gigantic in content and production values, very well written and interpreted, and has an entertaining gameplay that sometimes touches what we call excellence. Welcome back, my dear Aloy.
As Zero Dawn's natural evolution, Horizon Forbidden West accomplishes what a sequel should achieve: reaching new heights. Guerrilla Games builds a great world, perfecting every aspect of the first episode.
Horizon Forbidden West is a clear step up from the first game. With the addition of new biomes, extra tools, an extremely compelling story, and a ton of content to keep you busy, this is another single-player action-adventure hit for PlayStation. It’s amazingly fun to play, consistently incredible to look at, and even while writing these words, all I’ve wanted to do is jump back into the Forbidden West.
Horizon Forbidden West fails to live up to its predecessor in just about every way. While the world and its many new machines are stunning, the experience is bogged down with confusing design choices and variation for the sake of variation - making Aloy's newest adventure one to forget.
A great sequel but also kind of disappointing. It plays it too safe and the bad guys seem very uninspired and bland. The world is beautiful and the graphics are on another level especially on PS5, but Aloy really should get some emotions and less symbols on the map would help with exploration not feeling like a checklist.
Good gameplay. Taking down machines is fun so it's worth playing for that if you can get it cheap or play it on Extra as I did. Dialogue and characters are dreadful though. Really terrible. Every single white male is either hopeless or evil. They're not even trying to hide the agenda in this game. Surprised there weren't rainbow flags hanging from the various faction encampments. Every data recording you find about when the war was just starting has a female pilot trying to lead her squad. All the faction and camp leaders are non white men aside from one camp early on but naturally he's a total sc**bag and the mission for it ends with him being run out of town. The factions themselves are almost all devoid of any uniqueness. All as you'd expect with the ongoing nonsense polluting current media. The Osaram do at least have some personality about them but the rest could be from any faction as they're all the same. There's no mystery to the story since everything was explained in ZD and the new story isn't very interesting. As I said its worth playing for the gameplay which saves it from being a 4 out of 10 game.
This is a prime example of a misandrist game, it does so much right with theworld building but everything else is just a shtty mess. A lot of the lowlifes are white guys, the better male leaders are POC, normally that would be not a problem but this is such a big thing in this game that it just bothers the 10th time it happens. All big sane scientists are female, all those who were responsible for the death of billions were male, all female KIs are good, all male KIs are bad and try to kill everyone... the good male characters are either lowkey or POC, and even the chief with arms thick as a treestump gets his ass beaten by regalla who is like 2/3rd his size and weights probably 50% less than him. Ok i understand that this is a scifi setting, where all the warriors are female (so prehistoric humans had only female warriors? I think they took strong women a step too far,) and robots roam the world.
The moment i start to enjoy the game i encounter another idiot, narcissist, psychopath, egoist male figure who does just stirr sht up.
I wrote a similar post a few days ago on the subreddit, which had a much lighter criticism,but i still got bashed and insulted by every degenerate there, people who slightly agreed with me got downvoted, at the end mypost got deleted and i got banned and the moderators told me that i should kill myself. However, that did not make this game better or worse but it showed me what kind of degeneracy one has to have to enjoy this game without having a second thought about how antiwhite male this game is.
El juego merece un 9 sobre 10, pero la imposibilidad de completar los fosos de lucha por los bugs en los combos en PS5 ( en PS4 sí puede completarlos ) hace que al dividir la nota del resto del juego 9÷2 merece un 4,5 de valoración, no entiendo que habiendo transcurrido más de 2 años desde su lanzamiento no se hayan subsanado. Recomiendo bajar la versión para PS4 ya que te da menos bugs y puedes completar el recado de la perseverante y jugarlo en una PS4 no en una PS5, pero si decides jugar la versión para PS5 recomiendo ignorar dicho recado y lo fosos de lucha para evitar una experiencia frustrate. Sin los fosos de lucha el juego es magnífico...pero te deja mal sabor no poder completar una misión por unos combo de lucha inútiles e imposibles de conseguir con el mando duslsense de PS5. Es una pena , me encanta el juego pero si horizon 3 mantiene los fosos de lucha no lo compraré, no me gusta las frustraciones cuando juego, juego para disfrutar no para frustrarme.
