    Because of unwanted content present in DLC expansion, which was expected by many, but unfortunately, both the player and the developer lost, many players lost a good time because it was banned in many areas, and I am among those who support this, and the developer lost money and trust for many players, unfortunately.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story, the scenery, the design of it all is just so well thought out and executed. The gameplay is so much fun, I've put at least 100hrs into this game and it still hasn't gotten boring. I think it helps that the load times are practically non existent. You can be across the map in quite literally a matter of 2 seconds. Aloy is a grand protagonist. She's compassionate, funny, sassy, and there's nothing I don't love about her. I guess the spoilers would be that in the latest DLC they confirmed her sexuality and I was able to relate to her that much more. Her "OG" self, Liz, was gay so I mean it wasn't a shocker if im honest. She had hella chemistry with Petra in the first game and I will admit I was a bit disappointed with the lack of interaction and chemistry in this game. They held it back. But I guess they made it up with Seyka. Anyways the DLC adds more machines, allows you to level up past 50, which means there's new skills available. There's also a new weapon! So anyways I highly recommend this game, if you love open world and story driven games with fun gameplay mechanics this is for you! Expand

Novas mecânicas e customizações da personagem criam novas e mais eficientes formas de enfrentar os inimigos do jogo. As batalhas corpo a corpo, ganharam mais qualidade. Falando da qualidade gráfica, o jogo está simplesmente lindo e imersivo. Atividades secundárias são interessantes e prendem a atenção do jogador, além de proporcionar desafios interessantes, como a Arena, onde batalhas cronometradas com todos os tipos de máquina geram recompensas. O segundo jogo como o primeiro, continua com uma narrativa interessante e com várias reviravoltas surpreendentes. Expand

    A worthy successor to Zero Dawn. The story is a little more sprawling, they indulged in a bit of over-padding, and upgrading weapons sufficiently to survive the Ultra Hard NG+ mode is a bit of a grind. But considering I'd rate H:ZD as the best open-world game produced, bar-none, being "pretty good, even compared to that" rates a 10.

    Guerrilla managed to spoil a wonderful game. Virtually all men are portrayed as stupid, arrogant, corrupt, or self-centered; women are exaggeratedly placed as leaders, including a side quest where you have to depose a foreman to give Petra a place in command and another where you have to choose between fighting the head of a tribe or one of her soldiers for a difference of opinions; inGuerrilla managed to spoil a wonderful game.

    The only complaint is that when I got to the aftergame the game was more chonky than at the beginning. Is it something that has happened to me in many games, too much data for the power of the console?

    Summary: Overall, it was fun to play to a point where the good gameplay cannot hide the fact that this ultra woke story is not does not fit into that post apocalyptical setting. When this breaks and u still are mid, game the other half is more like a burden. If you compare it to Zero Dawn this is a poor sequel.

The open world is filled with new events, trials and puzzles which will keep you busy even after completing it's 25+ hour campaign. Side quests have always been an issue with the Horizon franchise as most of the time you are tasked with finding a lost individual and rescuing them from the evils found in the vast open environment which can be quite repetitive. However I found myself enjoying the side quests a bit more than the previous installment thanks to being introduced to a variety of different tribes and characters which make these additional stories and encounters more fun and unique. Main storyline reveals new secrets / enemies and we get a better understanding of the downfall of society and the rise of the machines. Boss fights and enemy encounters are more cinematic and enjoyable thanks to the new tools, weapons and combat mechanics. Overall a great experience and a true definition of next gen gaming, I believe HFW is a great example of how to deliver a proper sequel. Expand

    História: Uma história dividida em 3 atos: O primeiro ato dá-se a conhecer o desenrolar da história e aquela que será a missão de Aloy ao longo de um vasto mundo. O segundo ato dá-se as missões de maratonas de 50 kms em busca do Aether, Demeter e Poseidon. No terceiro e último ato, aquele em que tendo os 3 conhecimentos, tenta reativar Gaia. Apenas o primeiro ato é bom, depois disso a história prolonga-se por muito tempo, tornando-a aborrecido devido ao vai e vem no mapa e os labirintos das zonas. A sequela de Zero Dawn, onde foi derrotado Hades, procura um backup a Gaia, juntamente com os restantes companions. Como é de um RPG, não recebes nada se não deres nada em troca. Mais tarde descobre que não é o único clone, na qual era refém de um grupo de ricos vindos de outro planeta como refúgio. A história acaba com o plot de que tudo isto não passa de uma história de amor e sem ter nenhuma palavra, acontece o boss final, dando ênfase ao terceiro jogo que certamente será ou noutro planeta ou com armas mais futuristas para combater a plague que está a cair do espaço.

    Gameplay: Jogabilidade excelente, bastante fluída e flexível. Vários equipamentos e armas que se pode jogar com adaptações e upgrades. E ainda se pode usar um visual sem esse estar equipado. A nota apenas não é perfeita por ser flexível demais em certos momentos, se não se colocar bem o posicionamento do botão. A nova adição de se poder voar também é excelente e é pena se receber, apenas, na penúltima missão do jogo. Teria facilitado bastante a exploração do mapa sem se tornar um aborrecimento. Tornaria o jogo mais fast paced e apesar de se demorar um pouco mais a ser passado, havia muito mais imersão no jogo. Contudo, tendo essa máquina disponível para voar, tudo o que ficou por fazer, explorar e o DLC, deixou vontade de ser jogado futuramente.

    Música: Banda Sonora de raiz e efeitos sonoros bons.

    Gráficos: É um dos, se não o jogo com melhores gráficos alguma vez criado. Desde paisagens, a sombras, reflexos e subaquáticos.

    I have always been a fan of science fiction, but Horizon is one of the most imaginative and engaging stories I have ever encountered. The world of Horizon is so rich and detailed, and the characters are so well-developed. I love that Aloy is a strong and independent woman who is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in. She is an inspiration to me, and I am so grateful that I have been able to follow her journey.

    I am looking forward to continuing Aloy's story in Horizon Forbidden West. I know that it will be another amazing adventure, and I cannot wait to see what challenges she faces and how she overcomes them.

    Thanks to Guerrilla Games for creating such a wonderful game. It has truly helped me through a difficult time in my life.

    As for the technical aspects of the game:

    -The graphics and animation are absolutely breathtaking. The motion capture animation direction is perfect. Each cutscene feels like it took a lot of work with its direction. It brings proper life to the characters and makes you care for even the most minor side quest characters.
    -The music and environmental sounds are inspiring
    (There is only one particular minor character whose voice recording had a bit of an echo, but given everything else, this is definitely forgivable)
    -The Combat is intricate, fun, and engaging. HFW now includes in-depth combo mechanics that make each encounter different and highly engaging.

    ai tempi di horizon zero dawn il mio giudizio era particolarmente discordante con quello che si leggeva, sentendo spesso delle critiche che personalmente a me non hanno per nulla pesato.
    quindi quando leggevo di horizon 2 forbidden west pareri generalmente positivi dove si parlava di un seguito che migliorava pressoché ogni aspetto le mie aspettative erano parecchio alte.
    ma ancora una volta mi devo trovare in disaccordo, trovando si questo seguito migliorato sotto alcuni aspetti, ma che ne ha peggiorati molti altri.
    le critiche principali del primo capitolo erano tutte incentrate su tre fattori.
    -combattimenti con umani non bellissimi, e concordo che qui sono migliori.
    -dialoghi con personaggi poco vivi, e concordo che è stato migliorato tantissimo.
    -parte centrale noiosa, cosa che non ho mai concordato.
    il primo horizon l'ho sempre trovato speciale per il mondo che era riuscito a creare, e tornare in questa nuova avventura si sente che l'effetto novità è stato meno impattante, dato che è un seguito di qualcosa di già noto, e per riuscire a risplendere avrebbe dovuto osare molto di più.
    ma i problemi non sono solo per il mancato effetto novità.
    partendo già dal suo prologo potrà essere lampante che qualcosa è andato storto, con un prologo decisamente più sottotono rispetto al bellissimo inizio del primo horizon.
    ma anche una volta terminata quella parte il titolo non riuscirà quasi mai a raggiungere il livello del primo capitolo.
    con una sorta di caccia al tesoro dove dovremo esplorare in lungo e in largo la mappa di gioco, e questi tre obiettivi che dovremo raggiungere mi hanno lasciato decisamente meno, ad eccezione della parte desertica dove sembrano concentrate tutte le belle idee del titolo, rendendo le altre quasi come una specie di riempitivo.
    non ho anche apprezzato alcune idee di trama tipo il nuovo nemico o altre cose molto fantasiose che sembrano apparse semplicemente dal nulla senza una giustificazione.
    ma fortunatamente la parte narrativa si salva grazie al grande passo avanti fatto nella qualità dei dialoghi, e con una grande approfondimento di alcuni compagni con la quale potremo parlare nella nostra base.
    anche la semplice esplorazione del mondo di gioco ha dei grossi problemi, dato che la mappa sarà disseminata da punti di domanda, che molto spesso una volta raggiunti ci verrà detto che per proseguire in questa zona ti serve oggetto x che si sblocca più avanti.
    alla decima volta che ti accade la voglia di esplorare è scesa pressoché a zero, facendomi concentrare di più sulla narrativa.
    anche le nuove macchine aggiunte non sono sempre il massimo da affrontare, puntando molto di più su creature che ci combatteranno in due modi.il primo le macchine aggressive che si lanceranno contro di noi, facendo anche spesso impazzire la telecamera.
    mentre il secondo tipo di attacchi saranno proiettili esplosivi giganteschi che faranno una grossa zona di danno, dove spesso e volentieri ti colpiranno anche dietro delle coperture.
    fortunatamente il combattimento generale è stato migliorato, ma appunto non sempre saremo invogliati ad affrontare le macchine più resistenti.
    il gioco inoltre ha aggiunto sia in combattimento sia nelle parti esplorative un rampino, e una sorta di paravela tipo quella di zelda per planare liberamente.
    il gioco ha aggiunto anche tante nuove armi e vestiti, ma in particolare questi ultimi si distingueranno di meno rispetto il primo capitolo, rendendo quasi inutili cambiarli.
    per non parlare dell'albero delle abilità, dove sembra quasi ininfluente ottenere nuove abilità, ritrovandomi spesso con decine di punti da usare, che una volta usati non mi hanno cambiato di nulla quello che posso fare.
    se però può sembrarvi che sia un parere solo critico in realtà non lo è affatto.il gioco continua ad avere le basi di horizon zero dawn che è un titolo che ho amato, ma proprio per tutte queste motivazioni mi aspettavo molto di più da questo seguito, che a conti fatti me lo ricorderò come un capitolo di mezzo che scorre via senza eccellere e senza deludere, ma che lascia davvero ben poco rispetto a quello che poteva e anzi doveva fare.

    I have spent over 150 hours in this game and still find enjoyment. The world is absolutely beautiful and such a joy to explore. Newgame+ is as good as they come and burning shores was a fun add on, even if short. I will continue to come back to this game. OH and what an incredible showcase of whT the ps5 is capable of from a graphical standpoint the new locked 60fps mode is top notch.

    Horizon Forbidden West is, without any hyperbole, an absolute masterpiece, and it sets a new benchmark for graphical quality across all platforms, including PC.

    In Forbidden West, the developers have outdone themselves, surpassing the already impressive foundations set by its predecessor, Horizon Zero Dawn. The intricate details present in the expansive open-world, the elaborate design of the robotic foes, and the breathtaking sequences all speak to the game's significant advancement in graphical fidelity. The stunning visuals and intricate detailing make it feel as if you are exploring a real, living world. The landscape, from the forbidding wilderness to the remnants of past civilizations like the Golden Gate Bridge, is gorgeously rendered, making each moment of exploration a true joy​​.

    The characters, too, are exceptionally well-realized, both in terms of graphics and the performances of the actors. Every individual you encounter, whether they're central to the story or just passing by, is meticulously crafted. This dedication to detail enhances the believability of the world, allowing the player to become fully immersed in the narrative​1.

    The game's narrative itself is engaging and full of twists and turns, keeping players guessing right until the end. The character-centric drama is well-balanced with world-building, making for a more coherent and compelling story than its predecessor. The personal dramas and political conflicts create a tense backdrop for Aloy's journey, and the side quests are equally captivating, adding depth to the world and its inhabitants​.

    However, what sets Horizon Forbidden West apart from other games is not just its extraordinary graphics, but also the scale and ambition of its design. The game's world is vast and filled with variety, from the "Witcher-like" settlements to the variety of missions and side quests. All of this contributes to a genuine sense of exploration and adventure​1​.

    In summary, Horizon Forbidden West is a groundbreaking achievement in gaming. It's not just a visual spectacle, but a riveting, well-constructed narrative set in a beautifully realized world. This game is truly a graphical masterpiece, setting a new high standard for future games across all platforms. A must-play for any gaming enthusiast.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just finished the game yesterday on PS5 on normal difficulty. Many positives but a specific overwhelming negative.

    The Amazing: Visuals and Audio are among the best ever for any game created. There is literally a way to enjoy the game where it's just Aloy flying on her Sun Wing and enjoying the beauty of the rendered environment across different times of the day while listening to beautiful and touching soundtracks. For example 'In the Flood' main theme song should be in the running for some award of best video gaming song

    The Good: Fighting and Weapons. Such a big arsenal of weapons to choose from that allow many diverse fighting styles and weapon combos. I like the plasma mechanic a lot although it take a while to get used to. Some weapons like spears can feel a bit overpowered and some kinds of superflous like the short bow or the wierd elemental rope shooter but overall weapons are fun. Machines are also very intricate in all their animations, textures, and behaviors. A joy to engage with. Humans are o.k enemies but hardly a challenge.

    The Bad: Main gripe with weapons is the very tedious, boring upgrade requirements. I got all legendary weapons maxed out and one of the few times I needed to dial down the difficult is to gather resources for their upgrades. Its like each upgrade level requires killing and precision striping of parts from 5-6 big machines and it quickly became a massive chore instead of a fun activity. Strike was attempted as a Gwent (from Witcher series) like side activity but is just a bad conceptual game. Hard to remember all the machine and land requirements so I completely skipped it. Likewise, Vista point and Ancient Ruin quests we quite boring and their development resources better spent else where. Their rewards were also very pedestrian so are not in any way needed to get stronger in the game.

    The unforgivingly catastrophically terrible: Writing.. Its such a drop-off from the rest of the game to the degree that I think they hired top-world talent for the environment and graphics and got some interns to do the writing. In all my years of playing games, I have never seen such a gap in quality between gameplay and story. Even compared to the original game which was much more intriguing and suspenseful. I will give a few examples.

    SPOILERS BELOW:

    The whole premise of HFW falls flat on its face in the last 5 minutes when its uncovered that the Zeniths are not after trying to extinguish life on earth after all and just wanted to stop there, rest and, and get a GAIA copy while running away from nemisis. So that makes zero sense, a group of advanced alien humans, who conquered death, can't fix the simple problem of software backup (cause yes GAIA is just a super advanced ChatGPT not some digital deity, and was backed up before) Couldn't they have just cooperated with Aloy to get a copy ? Makes no sense and completely empties the meaning of the main story.

    Aloy sending her friends over to suicide missions over and over again. Most glaring is Varl. She just tells him to 'protect Alva' when Zeniths arrive in the couldren mission. Like how is he supposed to do that ? She knows how advanced they are and he only has a primitive spear and predictably lasts for a grand total of 10 seconds before getting run through by Eric and then no remorse whatsoever from Aloy as if this was always the plan ?

    The complete bungling of Tilda's character. As complex as they come as a former lover of Elisabet's, art enthusiast, and a 'good' Zenith. She is just converted to a town idiot in her last scene where thinks she could just kidnap Aloy. Earlier she had reviewed Aloy's focus and must know she is capable of bringing down Apex Thunderjaws as a stretching exercise. And how ? by jumping into a gundam like specter suit ? Which ended up being one of the easiest and most pathetic end boss battles ever devised.

    Feels like the narrative team just run out of ideas, changed personnel in the middle of development, or had some character death, plot 'twists', and cheesy scene quota they needed to fill and proceeded to do that without any sort of basic story QA.

    Any sci-fi or fantasy work requires a certain level of suspension of belief but HFW requires an activation of stupidity to overcome the poor story structure. To say the writing is amateur hour would be an insult to amateurs many of which could have done a dramatically better job. For a normal third person shoot-em up game, this would not matter, but the HZ franchise is not Serious Sam, its an advanced Sci-Fi movie being played as a game. Aloy and the rest of the Guerrilla technical team deserve much much better than what their narrative team is delivering at the moment and hopefully they get that for HZ3 or I will happily skip to preserve how I remember this great world and character.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is strange to me. The developers chose to make a game centred around the forbidden lands and how we must work together to save the world, yet these forbidden lands are less hostile than the Nora are to Aloy. The storyline chooses to follow aliens wanting a new home rather then following the set up from the previous game of a world ending threat waking up the machines which originally destroyed this planet and were only stopped by intentionally destroying humanity. This combined with a story centred around the most generic characters I've seen in gaming alongside an unchanging world which is supposed to be dying, just left me underwhelmed. The game is mechanically fine and looks gorgeous, but just follows tropes and pre done lore rather than give me a reason to play this instead of Elden ring, Horizon Zero Dawn, or any one of the other games which have released in the last few years.

    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.
