    Apenas 10h de gameplay mas já preciso dizer o quanto esse jogo está sendo maravilhoso. Estou ansioso para acompanhar o desenrolar dessa história e explorar esse mundo incrivel que criaram pra sequência.

    Ive been playing fot a bit after work everyday this week so far and im loving every minute of it it feals and like horizon zero dawn on steroids and i love that. The combat is smooth and flows perfectly (Imo) wether your fighting one enemy or several at once. The story so far both main and all tge side stuff keeps my attention. It looks beautiful and the cutscens are wonderfully done

    Great sequel! The game takes the best from the first one and still improved the gameplay. The open world is really cool to explore and the sidequests are a nice way to spend some time playing.

    This game is the like an upgraded version from the first, it got all the improvement from the first. Eg the conversation from the first is like a doll and robot, this one is like a movie scene. I never skip any new conversation. The skill and the new battle visual is stunning! Like a battle from GOW.

    There’s even a mini chess like game, but,, kinda hate it but for a Horizon style it still great.

    A must have if you like RPG style of game, exploring, hunting ducks rats and bird!, upgrading, battling with challenging robot. And... finding that weak spot to ease the battle. Thanks for this game, i payed full and worth every single penny of my wallet.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Guerrilla Games did something that isn't common, made a sequel that far outpaces its predecessor by miles. Horizon Zero Dawn was already a vastly interesting game with very charismatic characters and a backstory you were dying to learn everything about. Horizon Forbidden West kept me coming back time and time again reading every little data point to learn more about this fleshed-out world.

    The side characters felt unique not only in their appearance, most of the time, but in their personality. While I can only remember a hand full of names of those characters cause I suck at names, their missions will stick with me for a long time. The new companions Aloy brings in, with a couple of them being just old friends, brought a new side to the game that felt fresh providing them with their own side missions to complete to make their relationship with you stronger. However, I do wish this was expanded upon a bit more adding more weight to completing their missions than just individual character growth through cutscenes. While done beautifully I feel their missions were last-minute additions with no real set goal in mind for them aside from just doing them.

    When it comes to the map of Horizon Zero Dawn it was massive but never felt undoable at any given time and the sections of each tribe's border were obvious without being just slated on there like in Saint Row. In Horizon Forbidden West the map's size felt very daunting, especially with how much there was to do in the tiny section of Chainscrape. While moving through the story and doing many side missions, including collectibles, I was able to open up many of the spots but it never felt doable to complete everything until the near end when you are able to fly around, allowing the opening up the remainder of the map a lot easier and safer.

    The story in Horizon Zero Dawn started out as your typical chosen one-style story but quickly turned that on its head by having a legitimate reason this outcast is the only one who can save the world, or in that game's case tribe. In Horizon Forbidden West it starts out with what the stakes are in the game early on as it throws you back into the world with just a quick explanation that these red vines are growing all over the place and killing everything they come in contact with, plants and animals alike. Going forward the stakes stay the same of the world being at risk but with the enemy changing multiple times. First Sylens and his mysterious agenda, to Regalia and her rebels getting in your way to the real bad guys Far Zenith and their near-impossible invulnerability. But just like before they were able to weave all of these characters together in some way that fit the whole story being told and felt natural.

    The machines in Horizon Zero Dawn always felt tough when fighting but you knew you could just power through with slight strategy and come out the victor, you will use quite a few potions but you would win no matter what. In Horizon Forbidden West they make sure to beat that strategy out of you, you will NEED to utilize every type of trap and weapon in order to take down the bigger enemies or you will end up running away after using all your potions and health items and still not completely taken down the enemy. The newer machines introduced were awesome to see and very fun to figure out and fight but sometimes felt a bit unfair if you get caught up in fighting two of them at once and they just put you into a hit cycle that prevents you from healing.

    Overall Horizon Forbidden West was a fantastic game that I plan on spending even MORE hours into just to get everything else done and give the game my highest compliment of acquiring the Platinum Trophy. There are issues the game does have that cause it to suffer quite a bit like random visual buts like texture popping mostly but that only lasts a few seconds and while taking you out for a bit doesn't happen enough to really matter much. The other issue I had was with the character Beta feeling very annoying, I hated this character and cringed every time I had to interact with her. The story also felt like there was some padding at points like when going to get the Aether and you end up getting roped into a civil war within the Tennakuh, while this provides you with an additional ally it felt like it dragged a bit at times.    … Expand

    For me everything works in this game minus the 30 fps on ps4pro. I recommend it.

    Edit: Played a lot more and still very good game. What I really dislike is the camera, while concentrating it zooms in and sometimes vegetation, walls and other stuff blocks your view. Then riding on the mount could be smoother (stops sprinting instantly) when you run over rocky terrain or past objects like trees.    … Expand

    Horizon Forbidden West builds on its predecessor in every way. From the more natural facial animations to the meaningful side-quests. The story was satisfying and it sets up a third game perfectly. There were a fair amount of glitches & bugs, so I think that Guerilla should have worked on those before releasing the game to the public, but it’s nothing game-breaking thankfully.

    The bad or less good is the story which is much worse than the first bare bones one without the amazing audio tape stories and suprise twist. The characters are better than the first forgettable ones but still awful. Elements of the new gameplay ate fussy and overly complicated or grindy at times. There are few new dinosaurs and instead lots of issues especially the older ps4. The cost of the game as many paid more for less. Possibly some of the ingame politics and the gross Sony tree planting scheme whicb admirable is a joke compared to their overall c02 output as a company. Lack of any innovation or risks or new ideas of note.

    It might look like there is more complaints but in the grand scheme of things they only stop a good game being great again. If you liked the original it's more of the same. But if you have a choice or just played the original then I recommend you start with that and the excellent dlc.

    This game is a pure mixture of Assassin and Rise of the Tomb Raider ....

    Stupid dialogues and a plot on the verge of insanity.
    Grind.
    Permanent cutscenes.
    Moans, oohs and aahs, of the main character.
    And a lot of grindage and gathering.

    Only Lara has hunting, corridors and caves, and here the hunt for robots, corridors and the Assassin constantly wakes up with his grind in the open world and the stupidest plot dialogues and history in the open worlds of ubisoft.
    With all the titanic work done with models and animations = a terrible boring, dull and stupid game with absurd dialogues and just stupid dialogues.

    All open-world games have turned into gum for idiots.
    Not one new idea or something, so that after half an hour it doesn't get boring. Modern AAA games are wasted time.
    And only Indies are sometimes surprised, but they lack elaboration of details and quality.

    All the screenwriters are extinct, like dinosaurs.
    There were only "effective managers" and "character designers" or "clothing designers" - I don't know.
    But definitely not game designers. They didn't even touch this game, didn't even see it, and didn't even pass by to give the developers a slap on the head.
    Play ENSLAVED Odyssey to the West or Genshin Impact instead.

    But not in this **** which is not even 10% the level of Sony and PS.

    There is no limit to my indignation. With all the typical beauty
    of "HORIZON FORBIDDEN WEST", the eyes get used to it after 10 minutes and the game does not even try to surprise.

    Absolutely everything in it is done on the dump, probably except for the model of the main character and animation. Only Ubisoft can do worse.

    So a new fashion has also gone, when the games are completely different for the first 2 hours and after 2 hours. The first 2 hours of the game may even be interesting, but not later. All so that you can't get the money back.
    This game shows right away how lame it is and you realize that 100 hours of repetitions are waiting for you.

    Oh, yes, all over the world of the game, everyone knows who the heroine is and what she did in the last part. Are they sure they don't have SMS there?

    And I'll add 1 point for the fact that this game runs on PS4 at all.    … Expand

    This is basically the same thing as the first game, repetitive combat, low quality side quests, underwater combat was a lie, characters with bad design, armor with outdated artistic concept, characters with bad narrative. This game is just a bad copy of Monster Hunter.

    The graphics are outstanding in this game. The combat is fine just like the first game. Repetitive quests, too many cutscenes, and the story are kinda bland. You need to grind in this game which isn't a problem if you're doing different activities to earn but in this game, you keep doing the same thing.

    This game is awful compared to the first. Gameplay is worse across the board, movement and combat are flawed and frustrating. Tons of bugs and balance issues, and the story is *terrible*. Hard to believe this was made by the same company. Will definitely skip future games.

    - The graphics on PS4 are downright incredible. Probably one of the prettiest, if not the prettiest, games for this platform. In addition, it works stably, and any drops in FPS, if any, are not noticeable
    - The world has a lot of side activities but doesn't take up time like other open world games. The side-quests are very extensive and you won't find the primitive 'go to A, bring B, come back' out of a deeper context.
    Cons:
    - COMBAT. Combat is just awful in this game. It's not satisfying, just annoying. You don't feel the character skill progress because if any type of opponent was a challenge at the beginning of the game, he will remain a challenge until the end. The opponents still have a huge advantage over Aloy. It's very easy to get surrounded and then the Machines just throw you over the rocks and you can't do anything - running or dodging won't help you, because you are constantly shooting at you, often stunning Aloy. The only way is to spam the button to use medicinal plants. Second thing: aiming. The fact that a game designed with a pad in mind requires precise aiming and does not have any aim assist system is just one big mistake. I play on the console, but the gamepad will never replace the precision of a mouse. And the game requires aiming precision on the level of using the mouse. Summary: Almost every fight is frustrating and significantly lowers the overall gameplay experience.    … Expand

    The game is pretty average. Technologically, the game is of a high level, however, like all PS games. The gameplay of the game is again typical for all PS games of the last 5-10 years. The plot is also lacking stars from the sky. Compared to books, Horizon is a light read that you buy to kill time on a long drive.

    There’s nothing wrong with learning from your competitors, but what’s the point of copying stuff that’s mocked even by Ubisoft fans? Hopefully, next time Guerrilla will focus more on Horizon’s own strengths: unique world and mechosaurs that are so fun to take apart. [Issue#259, p.72]

    Horizon Forbidden West embraces everything about its predecessor and makes strides in producing an even more compelling world to explore, with intense combat and story moments, and shiny new robo-dinosaurs to punch in the face. I cannot wait to see where Aloy and her companions’ story goes next.
