Product Description
Join Aloy as she braves the Forbidden West - a majestic but dangerous frontier that conceals mysterious new threats. Explore distant lands, fight bigger and more awe-inspiring machines, and encounter astonishing new tribes as you return to the far-future, post-apocalyptic world of Horizon. The land is dying. Vicious storms and an unstoppable blight ravage the scattered remnants of humanity, while fearsome new machines prowl their borders. Life on Earth is hurtling towards another extinction, and no one knows why. It's up to Aloy to uncover the secrets behind these threats and restore order and balance to the world. Along the way, she must reunite with old friends, forge alliances with warring new factions and unravel the legacy of the ancient past - all the while trying to stay one step ahead of a seemingly undefeatable new enemy.

First the bad: from day 1, lots of quests are bugged. Instruction says ‘talk to xyz’ and the prompt to engage in conversation never shows up. Or you complete the quests before the specific challenge is issued, and the game is stuck. Most of the time, you can ‘unstuck’ the game by finding the nearing fire camp, saving your game, and immediately reloading the save game. Some of those though, are really far away from fire camps, and you end up having to fight the same machines again… it’s a little frustrating.
Another thing that has change is the introduction to a lot more combos for fighting. Valor, special combo based on weapons are hard to handle, and the timing of those combo is very tight. It takes a while to get used to. And the ‘skill tree’ is now super complicated. I can see how it would appeal to certain types of gamers, but I found it off putting.
And finally the ending was not quite as epic as I expected (still good, but I was expecting a grandiose finale)
Now the good: plenty of side quests that are interesting at building the story. Lots of dialog you can follow to get into the story. And Guerrilla is working hard to fix those bugs (almost weekly patches - takes a while to install on ps5, probably similar on ps4)
The game is visually beautiful (the only real glitch is when you have the ability to move fast across the plane and see far at the same time — no spoilers — when a lot of the environment pops).
The game is fun, forces you into new strategies based on the skills you have and the environmental conditions. My favorite part was sneaking into rebel camps and taking enemies silently and/or sniping them from above/below…
Overall, it’s an almost great game. It is almost as good as the first one. For those of you trying to get 100%, there will be a lot of running around back and forth across the map… but don’t rush to play it, as the bugs are quite frustrating… I hope they’ll fix more and more as time goes on… and make it into the great game it can be!
I know quality when I see it. The dev’s put their heart and souls into creating these beautiful landscapes and story.
**********************UPDATE***********************
After putting in some 10 hours now. The TL:DR is if you enjoyed the first game. You’ll love this. Many quality of life changes. Buy it.
More machines to figure out to hunt. More wild life to hunt. 6 different skill Trees. Warrior for spear, trapper for your deploying traps and casters, Hunter for my personal favorite the Bows. Survivor for health, infiltrator if you’re a sneaky type of person, and machine master for upgrading how long overrides last and what machines you’re capable of overriding.
Each of these skill trees have special active skills you can use to bolster many of Aloys powers, so the versatility in what you can with this new skill tree is a definite step up from the first.
I find myself getting lost and following where the game takes me, it takes me hours to actually get to the quest I have active at the time.
Can’t say 10/10 yet because I can’t seem to actually get to the main quest because the side quest and other things you can do are so engaging.
Oh, the climbing can be a bit janky, but it’s tolerable. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Must have for any Open World RPG lover. Or any PS5 owner at that.
The game is just as good as the original, and even better with additional moves and features and incredibly fast loading times on the PS5. And the graphics are incredible. There are some glitchy spots but only a few and very minor. Nothing that has gotten in the way of my playing the game.
Aloy, the female protagonist, is one of my favorite characters that I've played over the past 40 years. And the characters that you interact with are most great characters. A few might be annoying, but essential to character and story development.
The weapons and defensive elements in the game are well designed, and so are the level up mechanics. Defeating enemies takes some strategy this time because if you aren't careful, some machine parts can't be picked up as they will be destroyed.
I can just sit and play for hours on end, and just get drawn into this world, or I can play for 30 minutes to complete a level up quest or whatever.
The game can be overwhelming if this is your first open world game. But remember to do the quests and level up your gear, and learn the moves in the melee pits and the hunting grounds. And have fun!
