Masterpiece!

Played on: Playstation 5 Version: Playstation 5 Edition: Standard physical Right off the bat, I think the first game is better. Period. The narrative flows better & the character moments feel more natural & less forced. That being said, the gameplay in THIS is superior. Very smoothe, incredible visuals, & the open world is breathtaking. The additions with gliding & weaponry were a great addition as well. I liked this one a lot but just not at the "love it" stage yet. I beat the main story but I will go back & do all of the side missions, etc. in the future to hopefully get a platinum. Final verdict: Buy it

This game is absolutely amazing. The graphics are phenomenal, the side quests feel important, the main story is also amazing, and the new characters feel more complex and interesting. I can’t wait for the third game!!

Amazing story with amazing gameplay and one of the most realistic graphics and face animation

Such an amazing game. Great story, gorgeous visuals, and awesome world building.

Bit of an MCU equivalent game. Palatable and designed to offend absolutely nobody who is inclined to offense. Characters are there and they are indeed characters. There's also a story. It's not a good one and it's not a bad one, just a story, same as any other. When comparing it to something like God Of War, the narrative is appalling and GOW isn't exactly the best of the best either. The cutscene direction is also really awkward, shots linger too long or seem to have little to no idea of what the subject in frame should be. Coupled with inappropriate facial animation it feels like you're witnessing an amateur budget sci-fi show. Really could use a stronger director for the third game to make events feel more impactful and not embarrassing or comical.

Forbidden West is the (quite) perfect evolution of Zero Dawn, that improves narrative and, of course, gameplay. Finally Aloy grows up as a strong PlayStation icon that will be remember by generations. The only "problem" is that they didn't evolve in a massive (and necessary) way the combat system melee, that it's now better but not so deep as I wanted. By the way, this game is going to be a classic in the open world genere.

I had to put this one down. It's actually super repetitive and the story is very bland. I actually really enjoyed the first game so I'm kind of upset that I was so underwhelmed

This game was visually stunning and I had a lot of fun playing since I loved the first one would recommend anyone who loved zero dawn

God of work

Loved the first one and can't wait to finish this one

It’s not perfect but it deserves a 9. The best game I’ve played in a long time and a huge step forward from the first one!

Didn't finish

Good graphics and story but overall mediocre

Game Play : 9/10 Enemies : 7/10 Areas : 8/10 Difficulty : Easy Play Time : ?? Trophies: %100

good game but missing some excitement

visuals: beautiful, a few glitches soundtrack: stunning 10/10 gameplay: overall, smooth. hand to hand combat was better and more fun, but the mechanics are tough. a few glitches throughout the game story: 7/10 good, ending was anticlimactic. not as good as the first one loved the added climbing, the map was huge and gorgeous, the added weapons and combat was smoother and nicer
