    As expected the game delivers playstation studios magic. The game looks stunning from the beginning. I would have rated it 10 if I hadn't had few minor issues like anchor points stay for long time on screen after focus. I think it should be like death stranding only appear when using focus also performance mode should be improved for sharpness.

    satisfying battle mechanics. Good improvements to the UI. Tops the first game in many ways, especially cinematics.
    Aloy is sweet and endearing. Great model too. Extremely life like. This game is generation defining for PS5 gamers. Highly recommended!

Only things holding it back from 10/10 in addition to the minor bugs would be some of the exploration-oriented stuff feels “heavy” and not as graceful or smooth as would be expected such as the glider (mostly good but weird to hold down square to trigger), climbing, and the grappling hook. Otherwise it is an excellent game and I am looking forward to continuing on this journey!… Expand

    There's a lot of positives to take from it, with some slight negatives.

    In terms of negatives, there's really only one main one, if you play for a good length of time in a row, you will start to encounter the odd glitch here or there, I've personally had traps falling through the floor and still remaining until a fast travel and spinning enemies once defeated. However a restart of the game does fix those I've found. Seen several others mention various glitches online after decent length playtimes, but can't confirm nor deny those claims.

    In terms of positives, there's plenty. While I would have to imagine that everyone who picks up Forbidden West, will have played Zero Dawn, it does a good job at giving a quick recap of the first game for those who either haven't played Zero Dawn or have had a long time away.

    The new enemies, the revamped resource collection and the stash are massive, massive positives for the general gamer. Even though personally I have over 3000 ridgewood in my stash and around a thousand healing berries that will never get used, but it's a good feature to have for sure.

    It's a game that serves the story well, not only that but it delivers on what the people who loved the first one liked, and then some. Some underwater parts are a bit annoying, but much less annoying than other games that feature underwater sections.

    Overall, it's a fantastic game, really showing off the power of the PlayStation 5 specs. Shows that the ninth generation of video game consoles can really do amazing. A lot more to come from both sides of the consoles for sure.    … Expand

Of course, not everything is so perfect... I would put the voice acting 6/10, as in the first part. The voice acting has become better, but sometimes unpleasant noises are heard, often the voice acting is very quiet and therefore it is difficult to play without subtitles. It would be nice to add a 1080p 60 fps graphics mode with higher graphics settings, although it's not bad. The "Skills" section has become too overloaded and Eloy studied many skills in the first part and therefore it is stupid to study them again. There is no normal comparison of the current equipment with the sold one, and since there is an improvement system, it is impossible to understand what characteristics the equipment will have after the improvement.

    This feels like a defining moment for the new generation of consoles. Almost everything in the first game has been improved upon. Gameplay, environments, character models, and a narrative that is often far deeper, far more compelling than the simple quest for identity storyline of the first game.

I thought Aloy would have her own Zenith. Many people write that Aloy was prettier in the first part. This is not true! In the forbidden west, Aloy is just as good as the first.

But the sequel is almost perfect, yes, there are plot drawdowns, yes, there are side quests in the spirit of Ubisoft, but I repeat at the moment this is the best game in this direction!

    Absolutely amazing video game. Graphics, gameplay for disabled gamers in terms of accessibility settings, is simply out of this world, for those with disabilities concern. Can easily be adjusted to tailor the needs of disables gamer. Worth its wait in gold, everything about this game simply surpasses a game befitting such a fine title. Top marks and then some.

    I am so tired of those review bombings of well made games! This whole culture is fcked.
    I would give this game a 9/10, since there are some things that would need improvement like the close combat and less clutter in inventory.

    The story is great and engaging. The side quests are polished, but not on the same level like in Ghost of Tsushima for example.

    Definitely a must-buy game for the PS5.

    The game looks great. It runs almost smooth in PS4, imagine a 9 yr old console running the next gen games. It just proves that they took their time to finish this game. The story is nice also. The only problem with this game is, it has so many bugs, but most of them they don't break the game. Overall, this is another great game from Sony. I hope they release patches to fix the bugs.

Während der Kampagne und besonders zu beginn dieser, fühlte ich mich stark an Navi aus Ocarina of Time erinnert, denn Aloy hört nicht auf, dem Spieler das offensichtliche am laufenden Band vorzukauen. Besonders in den ersten paar Stunden des Spiels hört man "Ich könnte hier meinen Fokus verwenden" so oft, dass es schon unangenehm wird und man die Sound einfach ausschalten möchte. Was besonders schade ist, denn die Umgebungsgeräusche im Spiel sind sehr gut und fügen dem ganzen Erlebnis, gerade mit dem Pulse 3D, das gewisse etwas hinzu. Besonders am Anfang ist Aloy nervig, hauptsächlich wegen ihrer "Ich muss das alles allein machen" Einstellung. Diese Stellen im Spiel machen Aloy für mich ziemlich unsympathisch, allerdings ändert sich diese Sichtweise im Spielverlauf, zum Glück. Konkrete Bugs, die ich auf Social Media vermehrt sehe, sind mir im Spiel nicht begegnet. Vom Pop-in war ich gänzlich verschont. Lediglich der Loot wurde mir teilweise in Steinen oder anderen unerreichbaren Orten angezeigt. Da es aber generell mehr als genug Loot im Spiel gibt, ist das weniger ein Problem, als das leider weniger guten Weltdesign an gewissen Stellen.
    Ich bin häufig auf Orte getroffen, in denen unsichtbare Wände an der Tagesordnung stehen. So gibt es zum Beispiel in der Nähe zweier Hauptmissionen Gebäude, deren Fenster mehr als groß genug sein sollten, um geradewegs durchzuspringen. Das man dann aber nicht dort durchhüpfen kann, obwohl das Fenster doppelt so groß ist wie Aloy, bricht die Immersion und sorgt darüber hinaus auch noch für unnötige Laufwege. Auch das Kampfsystem bleibt nicht ganz verschont. Präzise Schüsse durch Lücken in der gegnerischen Verteidigung sind leider selten Möglich, da sich der Bogen furchtbar ungenau anfühlt und die Pfeile selbst ohne Hilfseinstellungen Magnetisch zu sein scheinen.

    Auch das Klettern ist leider nur als zweckdienlich zu bezeichnen. Zugegeben, hier bin ich voreingenommen, da ich direkt davor noch Dying Light 2 gespielt habe, das klettern fühlt sich aber einfach furchtbar sperrig und langsam an. Es funktioniert zwar, Aloy fühlt sich aber sehr unbeholfen und "Clunky" an.

    Ich habe das gesamte Spiel im Performance Modus durchgespielt, da mir die 30 FPS mittlerweile wie eine etwas schnellere Diashow vorkommen. Im Performance Modus ist mir allerdings aufgefallen, dass gewisse Cutscenes scheinbar mit einer Auflösung unter 1080p gerendert werden, was natürlich durch den Detailreichtum der Welt nochmal schlechter aussieht. Während dem tatsächlichen Gameplay allerdings, schienen Auflösung und Bildrate sehr stabil zu sein.

    Das Gameplay an sich ist trotz der ganzen Negativpunkte sehr solide und macht an sich auch recht lange spaß. Persönlich könnte ich mir nicht vorstellen, 100 Stunden in das Spiel zu stecken, ich sehe aber das Potential, welches es für viele Spieler hat. von einem optischen Standpunkt aus, weiß das Spiel durchaus zu beeindrucken. Man wird regelmäßig vor wirklich tolle Kulissen gestellt, die besonders bei richtigen Beleuchtung (für meinen Geschmack ist es meist in einer klaren Nacht) super aussehen. Die Story dürfte besonders für Sci-Fi Freunde interessant sein, allerdings will ich hier nicht Spoilern. Wer hier allerdings ein Storytelling ala Mass Effect erwartet, wird sicherlich enttäuscht.

    Aber nun zur Wertung.
    Ich würde dem Spiel gerne eine 9 geben und ich sehe auch das Potential dafür, allerdings müssten meiner Meinung nach einige Dinge angepasst werden. Zu einen, müsste es eine Option geben, dass Aloy einfach mal ruhig ist und nicht versucht mir alles zu erklären. Ich weiß, dass das Spiel ab 12 und somit auch für Kinder geeignet ist, allerdings ist das einfach übertrieben. "Wenn ich einen Stein da hin werfe und mich von hinten anschleiche, kann ich die Maschine unbemerkt erledigen". Ach was, wäre ich jetzt nicht drauf gekommen.
    Zum anderen sollten Spielmechaniken wie das Klettern offener und entschlackter sein.
    Ich verstehe auch nicht, wieso ich Dialogoptionen nach Stimmung habe, wenn diese keinen wirklichen Unterschied machen. So ist es an einigen Stellen im Spiel möglich, Logisch, Emotional oder Bestimmt zu antworten. Da es aber nur ein Ende und keine wirkliche Gefährtenmechanik gibt, erscheint mir das sehr unnötig.

    Wer also Lust auf eine optisch anregende Open World mit Robo-Dinos und einer Sci-Fi Story hat und sich nicht von den oben genannten Punkten abschrecken lässt, kann also guten Gewissens zugreifen. Wer allerdings Wert auf Immersion legt, sollte sich das ganze nochmal überlegen und vielleicht ein paar Updates abwarten.    … Expand

    Forbidden West is a very good game, the world has become bigger, more diverse and more interesting. Side quests have become more elaborate and they are really exciting.

    Of the minuses of the game, I will note the overload in the number of abilities, crafting, and the like. It looks like I won't even use half of them.

I’ve spent 7 hours on the starting location before moving on with the main story because all the bandit camps and side quests are parts of different storylines with either new well-made characters/settlements, or develop the unfinished story arcs from the past game. That is just great. Haven’t seen such an approach in an open world game for a while. The facial animations are off-the-charts great. The gameplay is basically the same, but with major improvements in progression, combat mechanics, additional skills etc. Quality of life improvements are present and make the game overall better. The graphics is amazing. The game looks incredible in both modes (60 fps and 4K), I just love it. The environments and settlements are way more detailed and lifelike. Overall - a great game, a perfect sequel. Basically the same base with a ton of improvements. If you liked the first game - you’ll love this one. If you didn’t - you won’t like this one. Simple as that. Great job, Guerilla. Love you. P.S. Haptic feedback is also incredible on the dualsense, it really adds to the immersion.… Expand

    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]

    Horizon Forbidden West is Guerrilla's best game to date, taking Aloy to new heights with a blockbuster release that meets the high standards set by PlayStation in recent years. While it's totally worth fans jumping in on day one, it's perhaps better to wait a few weeks until all the bugs are ironed out.

    Horizon Forbidden West is exactly what everyone thought it would be: an amazing game. It has an open world with plenty of things to do and places to explore, fights against some really well-developed machines and stunning visuals. The feeling is that the second game of the series improves on what was already great, and it feels rewarding and fun to play. It is another single-player masterpiece from Sony.
