The original Horizon Zero Dawn's side-missions felt slightly lacking for me. The culmination of this particular portion is exceptional, and one of the most memorable in the entire experience. Without weapons accessible underwater, it offers a lot of tension as Snapmaws (crocodiles) ever circle. The only exception to this is during a lengthy segment where you plummet the depths of a ruined casino, forcing Aloy to drain the building in order to progress.
The depths radiate a beautiful crystal but I'd be lying if I didn't want to get back to land as soon as possible. What I can say is that it's bearable and doesn't take up that much of the campaign. Video games still struggle to convey fun when it comes to swimming Horizon is no different, no matter the number of submerged machines there are to discover. Movement actually feels quite similar to Uncharted, making you wonder if Guerrilla spoke with fellow PlayStation studio Naughty Dog for some tips. More often than not there are now markers brought on by using Aloy's Focus – an augmented reality device that allows the character to scan the environment - which make scaling the bulk of the land possible. They feel fantastic too adding to the cinematic feel of it all, allowing Aloy to throw herself off a cliff's edge without the fear of falling to a grizzly death.Ĭlimbing has received a noticeable enhancement too. The latter can also pull down structures. The Pullcastor (grapple hook) and Shieldwing (paraglider) are the biggest upgrades that have been introduced to help exploration reach new heights.
Combat is designed around taking down the machines via bow and arrow, spear and an arsenal of other prehistoric weapons. Horizon Forbidden West is an action RPG that plays pretty identically to the first game, think linear levels found within a massive open world.
