    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Um jogo que o PS5 conseguiu piorar....algumas partes do jogo parecem ter resolução abaixo de 1080p, muitas falhas gráficas que não se encontram em jogos como Uncharted, God of War, etc. Melhor apressar o lançamento para PC, a fim do usuário final ter uma melhor experiência.… Expand

    Este jogo está repleto de bugs, quedas de framerate, texturas que não carregam, erros com save game. Gostaria de perguntar para a Sony se não existe um setor que testa de jogos antes de ser lançado. Parece que não existe, vocês deveriam ter vergonha de lançar esse jogo nessa situação. Padrão Playstation virou isso?

    Disapointment of the year.
    This game is almost unplayable on PS4 Pro because of enemies warping around or stuttering. And when you "disable" combat by selecting Story mode you are left with some terrible platform and swimming mechanics in order to solve repetitive puzzles.
    After 80 hours of game time and reaching level 50 I am finally giving up on this mess, without having even finished    Disapointment of the year.

    This game is revoltingly racist and sexist. It is poisoned by the “woke” agenda, the dialogue is dull and annoying and Aloy is just this cringe. Don’t indoctrinate your kids and don’t find this sort of thing. Many other better games out there that aren’t trying to reorder the world on extreme left wing ideals.

    Horizon Forbidden West tries really hard to be a good game. But it falls into the same problems as nearly all other games currently. Do the same mundane tasks over and over again. The same boss battles as it's previous games. Same mundane climb towers. It's generally not a good game at all. The biggest disappointment of 2021 by far!

Its beautiful and you can tell a lot of work went into the graphics and cinematics and thats about where it stops. I won't be continuing in the future of most of these games made today, Its sad when you can pull up a twenty yr old game with crap graphics and controls and have a better experience gaming. And I don't really want to get into the game details to much just know it will disappoint a lot of RPG fans out there. I do like the weapon selection a little better this time around and I hope they have to plant a ton of trees.… Expand

    Looks like the incels have shown up to complain because they’ve never been within 10 feet of a woman in their entire lives. For those of you who aren’t a bunch of crybabies, the game is a solid 8/9. Gotta give it a 10 though because Metacritic can’t seem to filter out virgins who will die alone giving it a 0.

    What I Dislike: A lot of pointless cutscenes when NPCs give you items gets annoying after a while. Minor gripe in an amazing game. But to be serious, some weapons and skills are unbalanced and kind of useless.

    How It Stacks Up: This is GOTY contender in a stacked year. I predict that they will delay GOW Ragnarok to 2023 just so there isn't as much competition. This game is that good. Too bad it released so close to Elden Ring. Looking forward to Horizon VR. I was already sold on PSVR2, but this game just cemented my purchase.    … Expand

    И так. Это мой первый и надеюсь последний отзыв тут, на какую либо игру. Простите, но я не смог пройти мимо, откровенного балабольства некоторых мамкиных критиков.
    Давайте по порядку.
    1. Графика - Я действительно очень удивлен, тому что несчастная девятилетняя PS4 способна вытащить такой графоний. Она ревет, кричит, пищит, но все же вывозит и свои 30 кадров отрабатывает как и    И так. Это мой первый и надеюсь последний отзыв тут, на какую либо игру.

    Не хотелось бы такать пальцем в некоторых личностей, но кое кто, в кое каких последних релизах от мелкомягкого фила, графику до релиза под микроскопом разглядывал, которую на релизе так и не завезли... Кто-то там кукарекнул про 2013 год. Это можно смело расценивать как голос диванного критика из разряда "не читал, но осуждаю". Ну или просто зависть человека, которому по какой либо причине тайтл не доступен. Так что 10/10

    2. Открытый мир - Кто сказал что он пустой, можете смело отправляться на пустоши мира фалаут 76, ну или на худой конец любого из творений французов на юбисофте. Там разницы нет, одинаково, тупо, не интересно. Снова 10/10

    3. Сюжет. - Я игру не прошел даже до середины, так что могу судить только по тому что я уже видел. И то что я видел, мне нравится. Бывают финты и получше, а бывают и похуже. А бывает что из пальца сосут "если из пальца", да? Мастер Чиф. Так как не знаю чем закончится и куда заведет пока 5/10

    4, Прошлые грешки. Первую часть ругали за плохую лицевую анимацию и однообразные доп задания. В Запретном западе Анимации и допы возведены в абсолют. Найдите мне более живых второстепенных персонажей, тогда и поговорим, я таких не встречал. 10/10

Humanity has been completely destroyed several times already, but this f*ing white man's privilege still does not give up. But Aloy is here to save us all from it, thank god.

    Story is essentially a big fetch quest. Wasted potential, expect nothing more then soy teenage drama with little boring twist and cliffhanger at the end.

    Gameplaywise it's almost carbon copy of the first game: empty open world, bunch of robots and ... nothing else that i can remember.

    It's not a masterpiece, far from it. And I am grateful to Sony for the fact that I now know exactly which reviewers to trust, and which ones I will never watch again    … Expand

    Bad game it really annoys me how Aloy tells me all the time what to do (or what I can do): "I can climb that wall", "I should scan the enemies to find out their weakness", "I can shoot that thing with an arrow", "I need to get rid of the enemies" etc

    She just always explains everything, even the most obvious stuff. Just let me play that game on my own, I don't need that handholding

    I tried the first game, and was impressed by the visual quality, but the control was clunky so I returned it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are a lot of narrative issues with this game. There are game-play issues with this game. Worst of all, it's just not fun. The stakes are large which makes all the meaningless side quests seem absurdly time wasting. It's very shallow. The tribalism is offensive.

    I will never forgive them over the ending to the Ted Faro quest. They spent a game and a half working up Aloy and the player's disgust for this man who is the reason everything bad is happening, and then they wuss out on showing him or allowing any kind of catharsis in ending him. Aloy would have punched a lot more people.    … Expand

    Assassin creed Odyssey better game than Horizon forbidden west. graphic good. i sleep when hear dialogues, totally not interesting identical side quest with give me 3 ribs in this cave.

    i change score on 6 when release on PC coz on PS5 15-20 fps in 4k or grass is drawn in 10 meters.

    I'd rather go plunge into the world of Assassin creed Odyssey than play this soulless chewing gum for $70

Graphically this game is alright, but have seen much better and expected more, especially in preformance mode. The game's story as well as combat and controls are worthless. Sifu, a more inexpensive game far out performs this game.

    Put simply, this game should not have been released in this state. Everyone's heard of the visual bugs, but that wasn't the deal breaker for me. It's the broken climbing mechanics, the railroaded story missions, the Michael Bay Transformer Pokemon enemies, the silly progression system, the "missing tools needed to get to this area" that are locked behind main missions way down the line.

My friends and I enjoyed HZD for the exploration aspect and the game simply doesn't allow you to explore anything you want to until the story missions are done. This is not what most of us do. We knock out side missions like we have OCD and run around just looking at **** Not to mention the unfinished animations that go beyond some graphical glitches, these common animations with the pullcaster and override that you see constantly aren't even as fleshed out as the original game from half a decade ago. This game feels like work at times. The story is the only thing keeping me going.… Expand

    Its a mediocre game.

    It has to deal with the same problems Ubisoft games have.

    Terrible story Clunky controlls
    100000 map icons
    Graphics are okay nothing mind blowing
    Ubisoft checklist content
    Performance problems
    a lot of bugs

    Its okay but nothing special at all.
    if you into Ubisoft games you can pick it up.

    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.
