Horizon: Forbidden West
Mar. 15th, 2022 08:27 pmI just played this and it was overall pretty good, modulo some issues with gameplay, storytelling, and the ever present Weirdness About Indigenous People. It's very much a sequel to Horizon: Zero Dawn, you'd miss a lot by playing this game first. If you're not familiar with the series, it's about shooting robot dinosaurs with a bow and arrow in a post apocalyptic future, but has engaging plot and characters around that (silly but fun) mechanic.
Here's the trailer.
We played it on a PS4, which worked fine. There was the odd visual glitch but nothing game breaking. Cam encountered one semi-game-breaking bug but that's since been patched.
No major spoilers for either game in this review, but at the end/under the second cut I give some minor spoilers for a section I didn't like.
( No spoilers )
And now for my mildly spoilery rant about the issues in the middle of the game!
