    After 20 hours in the game I can say for sure that game story and gameplay is so boring. Yes it has good graphics, but not enough for me. I shouldnt buy it day 1 and be victim of the hype. I really dont undestand why they praising this game.

    The game and the scale just feels very very bloated and this completely breaks the pacing with the story when you decide to take a bit of a break, this break can lead to hours of pointless stuff which disconnects you further from the main story.

    I feel they turned the dial up to 20 in this game, but not in a good way.    … Expand

There are quite a few cut scenes but the game makes up for it in the sheer size and scale of the open world, especially with the newly implemented climbing system which makes everywhere easier to traverse. The dialogue is similar to the first game and to he fair, I really liked the first games dialogue because hanky though it was it really gave the game a good amount of charm and character. The team have definitely added to the game rather than changed the whole system which I appreciate, and there's so many new systems to learn and master. I'm currently around 15 hours in and I cannot wait to finish the game and then play it all over again.… Expand

    10 in my opinion! Let us be real for a second. There is no game that is perfect! But, there are games that comes close to it. Horizon Forbidden West is one of those games. Great story line with Aloy, Awesome Graphics, and gameplay fun and exciting!!! This sequel is just a great as the first one!!! Keep up the great developing Guerrilla Games.

    The review bombing here by trolls is pathetic. Many of them claim that they have played the game but have not actually played a minute of it. If you didn't like the game, a 6/10 would have been adequate. But giving it a 0-4 out of 10 clearly shows their motivation.

    Bad : Shut up Aloy, Weird disconnect with the combat/hitboxes, niggling bugs not ironed-out, soulless npcs nobody cares about.

    Overall : Visual style over gameplay substance but still worth playing (at least until Elden Ring comes out).

    It's more of the same style over substance with HFW. The cast of characters all look like castoffs from the 90s show Tribe and the different tribes are all barely-distinguishable hippies in dayglo facepaint. The story is godawful and you will find yourself skipping through it because you just do not care about facepainted npc #9002. The world is stunningly beautiful to look at but poorly-designed (think AC Odyssey). A lot of it is irrelevant wilderness. An open world game can feel vast even if it doesnt have hundreds of miles of world. HFW feels like a lot of copypasted textures and areas. The combat sorely needs a lock on. Whether owing to bugs or poor design you will often find yourself getting one-shot by things not appearing on screen/appearing too late or too early. The hitboxes are all over the place. The biggest stumbling block and the worst offender is Aloy (chubby face aside). Where once she was endearing now she is a nagging tutorial bore. She is constantly, constantly, constantly, constantly quipping. You will audibly tell her to shut up and you will do it into the double digits. There are times where you are not even afforded the chance to solve a basic Zelda 'shoot-the-glowy-thing' puzzle without Aloy straight up telling you what to do. This game treats you like a dribbling moron. And this is with the accessibility options turned off. You cannot take in the beauty of this game without wishing its protagonist would shut up. If you pick up a rock she quips. If you pick up a plant she quips. If you take longer than 5seconds to solve a puzzle she quips and tells you what to do. This makes the game a tour. And it sucks. Because it could be a GOTY contender if Aloy were quieter and made to fit into the games world more. There is an odd disconnect at times and she will clip through things. This game is another case of 'look at the pretty graphics! never mind the glitchy gameplay!'.    … Expand

    A massively open world game that often requires a lot of travel on foot/mount is normally fine, but far too often I will try to attempt a side mission without realizing I need some kind of ability/equipment from the main story. The game needs to do a better job of letting you know not to waste your time with these things just yet. The sheer amount of side events can be intimidating and (after a certain point) a bit useless.

    Some strange bugs encountered already. Dead machines twitching around infinitely and dead humans still standing upright. NEEDS NG+ but I assume this will be added later just like in HZD.

    It's a very similar game from its predecessor, so if you enjoyed that, you will probably like this. Altogether a very solid sequel, it just needs a bit more polish in some minor areas.    … Expand

    At initial launch the game is definitely buggy, but I haven’t experienced anything atrocious. Aside from that the world is beautiful, the combat is awesome with tons of variety, the story is much improved and expanded on compared to the first game, the under water traversal is great, and Sony’s first party studio Guerrilla Games knocked it our of the park with this one!

    My rating is based off the PS5 version. In summary, the world is incredibly dense. The combat has been slightly improved to make it a bit more interesting. The climbing is vastly improved which is much welcome, doesn’t feel as cumbersome. The story has improved to become more interesting from the beginning and not mid way like the prior.

Incredible graphics, however my only reason for not giving it a 10 is within the graphics and modes. The resolution is fantastic but the 30fps is a bit hard to play on since let’s face it it’s not 60, but if that doesn’t but you then it’s the best mode. The performance mode has too much anti aliasing issues ex. the trees and foliage have a shimmer due to the checkboard rendering. Normally I like to play 60 on every title, but it’s too distracting for me. Therefore the 30 is stunning in looks, again, it’s not 60 so it has a down side for me. Overall worth the full price for an amazing experience similar to when I played the last of us or uncharted for the first time.… Expand

A historia se mostra muito boa e envolvente, te prende e você sempre fica duvida se vai continuar ou explorar algo novo que acabou de descobri no seu vasto mundo. Existem tantos tipos de atividades para se fazer, desde explorar caldeirões, ruinas antigas, campos de caça, arena de maquinas, campos rebeldes, jogo de tabuleiro, entre outra.

    Contras - O jogo apresenta alguns bugs e glitchs visuais que como a perna da Aloy tremer ao ficar parada e agachada em cima daquelas vigas de estreitas, as pernas delas entram dentro das superfícies rochosas ao caminhar ou pular sobre elas, o salto de um lugar distante para outro é muito fake não apresentando aquela fluidez como visto em Uncharted 4, ao pular em uma escada fixa o corpo dela se balança e atravessa a estrutura da escada.

    Minha nota pelo game é 9,5 devido a possuir bugs visuais, mas que não comprometem sua gameplay. E um jogo simplesmente incrível que vale os 299 reais, quem estava na duvida em comprar o jogo não vai se arrepender.    … Expand

    One of the greatest sequels just like Uncharted 2, Gameplay is amazing with new weapons and travelling methods, Aloy looks great and the graphics are like melting butter and was always in awe.

    Game is really good, people who ask for perfection are unrealistic. Yeah there are games out there that outperform Horizon in performance but that's okay. Story is something you never heard before. Combat is as fun as you make it, crank up the difficulty and you'll have fun. It's funny how people rate it 0/10 for the smallest of things. Grow up

    One of the best open world games you can play. Gorgeous, GORGEOUS environments, gameplay as smooth as butter, and a story to keep you engaged. You can lose yourself in this world completely. It’s a overall exciting, QUALITY game which is a must play.

    Wow! The graphics are amazing. They really took advantage of the next Gen specs on the PS5 when they made this game. Very well done. Controls are even better than HZD, and with the dualsense the immersion is cranked up. I love it. They have improved every aspect of the original in this sequel..

Like it upsets me that some people dont like it. But whatever. Go play your race cars and shooters. Yall dawgs with the negative reviews probably smoke mids and do xans

    The Performance mode is broken. Horrific aliasing at 60 fps. The 30 fps mode is a stuttery mess. I've honestly never been so disappointed in a Sony Game on day 1. This game has major issues. I'm sure there is a good game under the hood but its hard to care with the graphics hurt my eyes.

    The developers spoiled the appearance of the character, making it absolutely unattractive and even disgusting. Because there is no way to edit the character's face in the game - I won't play it in principle. Such spitting and mockery of the players - stop putting up with this propaganda.

    In my opinion Horizon is a great game. But why?
    1. Interesting and still captivating take on AI, humanity, our common mistakes and so on
    2. Great music - check the choir in the Utaru location
    3. Vibrant graphics - models, the level of details during dialogue, in cauldrons and so on And many more..

    This game does not deserve all the people on here review bombing. Must be x box fanboys.

    I bought the game on day 1. I did not notice anything like what some of these people are saying.

The game looks very impressive visually, especially at night time. it's a 10/10 on the graphics. I am playing the game on hard and it is fun. It takes a lot of damage to take down some machines but I like a challenge. The only con I found was I felt underpowered at times until I progressed in the story some and completed more side quests. Still not a bad thing. The story literally picks up right at the end of Zero Dawn. You find that there is not a set bad guy or faction. You face many different baddies throughout. I have not beat the game yet but I wanted to go ahead and give my two cents. Overall the game is solid. For this to be a cross gen game the graphics surprise me. I wonder how amazing it would look if Guerilla could pump everything into the PS5. Solid 9/10    … Expand

    El juego no esta completamente roto, tiene bugs y exceso de niebla además que aparecen cosas de la nada y las texturas tardan en cargar. Considero que perfeccionó casi todo los del primer juego pero eso no quita que deje de ser repetitivo y un juego de supuesto mundo abierto rígido y a medias.

I loved the first game and this one is just better in every way. Guerrilla kept everything that worked in the first game whilst advancing combat and traversal in meaningful ways to create a spectacular entry in the series. I can't wait to see what they do next.

    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.
