Horizon Forbidden West™ Complete Edition

Nel complesso, un ottimo titolo. I punti di forza sono ovviamente il comparto tecnico (come sempre il Decima engine produce risultati fuori scala) ed il mondo di gioco, di una bellezza disarmante e sempre stimolante dal punto di vista dell'esplorazione. Il sistema di combattimento è estremamente godibile, al pari del primo titolo, viscerale e soddisfacente. Il punto debole, nonostante la narrazione si basi su una trama di fondo assolutamente brillante, è lo storytelling. Aloy è un personaggio positivo, incarna bene la tipica eroina sempre disposta ad aiutare, ma manca di profondità e di sfaccettature. Mai un guizzo, un cedimento, un spunto verso l'alto o verso il basso. Al pari di Aloy ogni altro personaggio secondario, nessuno mai degno di nota. I dialoghi sono il punto peggiore del gioco, banali, scritti male e sempre tendenti al bambinesco (la vetta si raggiunge nel DLC, dove il cringe è dietro l'angolo e si tende a skippare in toto le interazioni fra i personaggi). Detto ciò, il mio parere resta molto positivo, se si cerca un'esperienza sempre divertente, immersa in un open world straordinariamente ispirato, dove si possono investire diverse decine di ore. Comparto audio e soundtrack altrettanto degni di nota.

Horizon Forbidden West is a perfect example of a game made for casual players who just play through the main story on easy and don't care about anything else. The game looks absolutely gorgeous; the cutscenes and facial rendering, in particular, are flawless. However, the most important part of any game—the gameplay—is trash. The combat system is frustrating. Fighting multiple machines is total chaos. You spend most of your time stunned on the ground, running away, and frantically crafting ammo mid-dodge. This goes hand in hand with overcomplicated mechanics. The game overwhelms you with a massive pile of weapons, elements, and coils. The result is just annoying menu management that completely kills the flow. If you do side activities, you will completely overlevel. I got to a point where the main quest required level 30, but I was already level 50—and that was me trying to balance my progress with side content. Along with that comes a ton of skill points with nothing to spend them on. Most abilities are active and you can't use them all at once, which brings me back to constantly swapping things in the menu. All side quests are exactly the same: go there, turn on Focus, follow the tracks, kill the machines. Furthermore, the game gives you a false illusion of freedom. Everything has only one specific solution designed by the authors. This applies to finding collectibles as well (e.g., find that one interactive object in a massive complex just to move one step forward, and repeat). Aloy behaves completely differently than in the first game. She is arrogant, refuses any help, etc. Even though I understand her character development throughout the game, you spend most of your time playing as an unlikable protagonist. And the main storyline involving Far Zenith feels like an absurd sci-fi. It would have felt much more natural if the story had stayed grounded (literally).

J'ai acheté le jeu en réduction pendant les soldes d'été car j'avais fais le premier opus à sa sortie à l'époque sur ma console et j'ai voulu faire la suite maintenant que j'ai un pc. Alors de mon côté comme mon pc n'est pas une machine de guerre, je galère à avoir des fps stable et de beaux graphismes MAIS je ne le prendrais donc pas en compte dans mon évaluation ^^ Actuellement je n'ai absolument pas fini l'histoire mais je voulais partager mon premier avis en cours de découverte de cet opus (cet avis sera modifié quand j'aurais fini le jeu), j'adore on y retrouve toute les mécaniques et ambiance du 1 mais en mieux avec des rajouts, rien qu'au niveau de l'histoire ou je suis il y a déjà de la tension, des découvertes et des plot twist sur des choses que l'on pensait savoir depuis longtemps sur l'univers du jeu. Sur le côté RPG on est pas en reste, des arbres de compétences très complet malgré une légère frustration de mon côté sur les "technique de bravoure" mais après rien à dire, et la map est colossale je prends un énorme plaisir à tout visiter et découvrir xD En bref pour son prix actuel si vous avez fait le 1, foncez sur celui-ci !!!

best game

Элоида Ивановна нормально выглядит, чё вы хейтите

Игра конечно хорошая атмосфера вообще бомба, просто меня расстроило то что действие происходит на западе я думал что все будет происходить на одном и том же месте, разочаровало то что не показали Теда Фаро хотя очень хотелось. А так игра бомба

Brilliant sequel that ups the quality in almost every way over the first game. A rich story with interesting characters and well expanded upon combat and exploration, particularly the enemy designs. I wouldn't skip the first game though since this picks up right where that left off, and the story here too sets up a sequel. I hope the eventual 3rd game comes to PC one day, but I can wait.
