    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horizon Forbidden West: Left Behind shows the direction the franchise is deteriorating in. After the initial release 14 months ago, Sony lifted a huge middle finger to all PS4 owners. The game is not better in gameplay by any means, however, it is much better in number of exploding particles. Expand

    Eventhough the graphics are good, the story is poorly developed and with a sudden change in the main character that negated all theat have been built up in the first and second games, the story has been ruined for me and I lost interest in it. There is no enjoyment in the game play anymore.

Нужно уничтожить ещё одного зенитовца. Потому что он решил улететь на другие планеты. А двигатель корабля отравляет всё живое. А ещё главный злодей дурит женщинам голову, и вообще он их всячески унижает и хочет забрать с собой. Чтобы ему поклонялись. Прям как кинорежиссер Ванштейн. Просто Лондра плохой пермонаж, просто потому что. Диалоги в игре просто никакие. Словно их на коленке написал пятиклассник. Все отношения между Элой и Эрендом, а просто забудьте. Элой теперь по девочкам. Графика в игре отличная, геймплей тоже. Но сюжет, диалоги и повестка ради повестки, это уже слишком. Крайне разачарован этим DLC( Expand

    Let's be real, no one likes it when DLCs force a political agenda down our throats. It can seriously harm the quality of the game and leave players feeling disconnected. I mean, c'mon, when we pay for a DLC, we expect it to improve our gaming experience, not push someone's political viewpoint! W.O.K.E

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Like Assassins Creed, this use to be one of my favorite franchises. Now it’s middle of the line for me. I love the gameplay and the boss battle is the better than the main game. I’ve read the other reviews and agree with the relationship was thrown in there and the player not given a choice. If you are going to put a relationship in for Aloy make it a choice and have it in the main game. I’m not against her being gay or bisexual. If players forget she had a love interest in Zero Dawn. Also podcasts and other professional reviews and meta critic itself. Don’t judge all the reviews thinking it’s about being gay. Its about how it was presented and that there was an agenda. Again I’m not gay bashing, so please stop thinking it’s about that. But clearly they were appeasing to the “woke” here. I want my choices to matter and I want to choose the relationships Aloy is going to have and what they are going to be. The main boss was funny and good choice. Exactly like certain billionaires these days lol Expand

For goodness sake, why do game journalists continue to praise this story DLC business model? Enough already. They are only encouraging these developers to be greedy and lazy. Just imagine if this greedy practice was a trend before the 360/PS3 era. Then we would have to theoretically pay an additional $20 for GTA San Andreas to get the desert and Las Vegas inspired city, alongside the missions and content like the jetpack.

    Just to be clear, I didn't buy this DLC. But that doesn't mean I can't have an opinion on this trash. I did spent $60 on Horizon Bug-ridden West, so I do believe I am entitled to have an opinion on this poor excuse of a DLC. I shouldn't have to pay an additional $20 to get content that should've been in the game in the beginning. It's not like this DLC has a big improvement on physics or anything. I bet it's just another stupid map full of plants, trees, rocks and water with a few LA landmarks. I have nothing against the LGBT community or whatever extra letters and symbols these SJWs add. But I am not going to sit here and pretend these developers don't have a political agenda. They make it so obvious. To anyone calling this game woke, that is literally every AAA game. Every AAA game studio has made it clear they've gone woke in 2020. If that's not clear enough, just wait until 2024.

    If only this DLC had multiplayer, then it might've been worth purchasing. When I pay full price for a game, I expect the complete singleplayer game. Look at RDR2, that's a complete game for $60. While TLOU2 is still an incomplete game, I can at least appreciate that Naughty Dog gave us the complete singleplayer experience without resorting to DLC, even if I hated that game. Even if ND and Rockstar do have story DLC for those games in the future, It's already been multiple years after release. My problem is having story DLC within a 1 year timeframe. You mean to tell me these greedy developers couldn't wait 1 year to release the complete game for $60? Oh that's right, then the greedy developers wouldn't get that extra $20. I don't ever want to see this garbage trend again Sony, or from any game studio for that matter. If these money hungry developers are going to have story DLC, they better wait at least 20 months before releasing it. I don't recommend this DLC at all.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Burning shores is just "a DLC" for Horizon Zero Dawn.

    while the original game has beautifully captured the desperation and the lonelyness of a dying world collapsing in a dessater where everyone WILL die for the unfathomable small idea of having a genetical "ark" that carries on the legacy of humans on the planet they destroyed, in the last resting place of Elisabeth Sobek, and was intruiging with the slow story unfolding , the forbidden west left that trail and made two mistakes already from the start : leaving the one lonely person narrative and teaming Aloy (who, even in burning shores, is still acting beautifully that odd on eout character of Aloy) with way too many chartacters.. and on top to make it worse, some very annoying ones, too. While in Zero Dawn we just had some few "allies" that helped us with the final boss battle (which was good and great) in Forbiodden West we already had those obnoxious Utaruh who were just badly unrealisticly written, but you had just ONE side character, the diviner Alva the Quen, who was obnoxious and nerving but bearable.-

    in Burning shores you get the nuissance directly bolted to your back. Seyka is a pain the the A$$ and the ears .. constantly moaning, annoying and complaining and stopping the game from progressing by just not moving and hindering the progression when the game needs her to lead the way..
    In the End Aloy is somehow, out of some non obvious reasons, expected to somehow care for Seyka and even enter a romantic relationship with har while having had absoplutely no chemistry, common "things" or not even aligned goals because Aloy sees the larger pciture while Seyka is selfish to the end and only sees her objective, resuing her sister and nothing more while permanently belitteling Aloy and questioning her abilites and motives. (aka. "definitely not the chick i would fall in love with" )
    If thats not painfull enough, the game breaks logic every second. One moment Seyka is scared to even climb the flying mount, the next occasion she is left alone on the mount she doesnt even control and performs world class evasive aerial maneuver against a giant horus, second later she doesnt know how to land that thing. Aloy singlehandedly defeats a Horus (at this time i zoned out, just wanting to finish the last bit of game.. somehow.. ) while millions of trained world class soldiers with weaponry far outclassing her scrap-metal bow could not bring down a single one of it during the collapse while Aloy effortlessly shreds another dozen of light reapers with her bow alone.. All while in the past, reapers could pluck tanks clean and then somehow stopped on top of them to pose for a picture .. we can find many tanks where some reapers just sit on top of them, not moving as if frozen in their last movement.. while accoring to lore noone was able to stop them, so they must have just stopped there from alone? .. somehow.?.

    Aloy also acts stupid as per Script, she meets "the other half" of the Quen expedition , meets the head-honcho Admiral and perfectly forgets to tell them that their other half is still alive.. and that the whole CEO thing was a mistake and the cause of the Quen "Expedition" was already found and blew up.. (which she still doesnt tell after the end..)
    The only character that is somehow still ok, is Sylens.. but since Lance died, we will probably not see anymore from him.
    Less annyoing but still visible is the timeperiod of which Burning Shore is the brainchild 2020.. the main villain is a cookie cutter white corporate evil man, who wants to destroy everything in 1000 mile radius because he uses outdated rocket technology while there is a perfectly fine spaceship in the Zenith base that is ready to liftoff and waits for him.. while the "do better" slogan is painted in broad strokes all over the map. But to the rescue they were able to dial it back a bit. you still go and rescue the flamboyant boyfriend of a Quen guy who did not want to be rescued but at least you dont have to deal with them bickering .

    this could have been such a great DLC.,. finding the last zenith, talking to him , maybe having to gain his trust, and then working towards their goals with mistrust and genuine obstacles would have made a good plot. Not the generic "Giant industry magnat who is a dork will enslave followers with "mind manipilation and hypnosis" to live forever as a god".. - Boooring- it would have been really "subverting expectations" to have made him "the good guy" in this episode.

    one final coup de grace was when Seyka suddenly out of nowhere confesses her burning love to Aloy and Aloy could at least give the "i dont have time for this" answer.. that was genuinly a great moment. where the player had a good look into the mind and psyche of a war torn 19 year old who only knew killing or being killed. That was a very rare but precious and great moment.

    the Rest ? was painfully mediocre..

    Horizon Forbidden West is a highly anticipated sequel to the popular action-adventure game, Horizon Zero Dawn. While the game features stunning visuals, engaging gameplay, and an exciting storyline, it is not without its flaws. One of the main areas where the game falls short is in its inconsistent character development.

    Throughout the game, players are introduced to a variety of interesting and complex characters, each with their own unique motivations and backstories. However, the game often fails to adequately explore these characters and their relationships, leaving players feeling disconnected from the story and its cast of characters.

    In some cases, characters are introduced and then quickly forgotten, while in other cases, their motivations and actions seem to be at odds with their established personalities. This inconsistency in character development can be frustrating for players, as it can make it difficult to understand and empathize with the characters and their choices.

    Furthermore, the game's dialogue and writing can be clunky at times, further exacerbating the issues with character development. While there are certainly standout moments and well-written scenes, the overall writing can be uneven and choppy, hindering the game's ability to fully explore and develop its characters.

    Overall, while Horizon Forbidden West is a solid addition to the Horizon series, its inconsistent character development is a noticeable flaw that prevents it from reaching its full potential.

    Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores is visually the best game I have ever played, and in terms of gameplay, it is enjoyable for me, although it may not be for everyone. But the story is the biggest weakness of the game, and I don’t think the story will be great in Someone’s opinion and it may just be the difference between those who say it’s mid and those who say it’s bad. But in different ways, this game completely shows off the power of the 9th generation console.

    Burning Shores is definitely worth a visit. The story builds nicely, the side quests have nice depth, and Aloy and Seyka may end up forming something more than just a friendship. The question is whether a little more content could have been added. After all, it's all stuff we've seen before. [Issue#327]

    Seyka is a welcome addition to Aloy’s allies. However the DLC shows no intention of escaping the science fantasy nonsense the base game mired itself in. [Issue#28, p.88]
