    I’m right there with you on your point for Horizon Forbidden West. It’s such a huge pain to upgrade. And the fact that you need to hunt Apex bots and sometimes they don’t spawn and it takes so many resources and fast traveling all over the map. The game is fantastic but the upgrading is a legit grind.

    I'm 15 hours in and just now reached 3rd location. I generally really like it, more and more the further it goes. Story is simple, that's true, but I don't see it as being a bad thing, especially how well and detailed the world building is. There's a ton of lore stuff to find which enriches everything around you and it got me engaged into the events. I do collect everything possible so that my experience may be a bit different than most people's who just do a bit of exploration (which, imo, is second best thing after combat in this game) and mainly the story. I like how NPCs you've done sidequests for remember it when you sometimes meet them in next location, how sidequests generally have small consequences to how the world looks. Never expected it to be a top tier AAA experience so it deffinitely met my expectations :)

It still looks decent though and I'll probably get it on sale or maybe when it hits Game Pass hopefully.

    This reminds me of remnant in the sense that no one really knew about remnant from the ashes if you were lucky enough to find it on day of release you had the feel of finding a diamond in the rough. The story wasn't all that interesting the characters were so scattered you probably didn't even encounter the ones you meet in the sequel and the combat was fun but the game had its buggy moments and for me remnant from the ashes was so great that I lost it when remnant 2 was announced so when I hear so so story kinda buggy great combat I think back on remnant and hope that by giving this a fair shot we might get Atlas fallen 2 the re-rising And it'll be something to look forward to If we show support for a new ip maybe we can start encouraging more creativity and not have to play skyrim the ultra super mega hyper re-released edition for ps7

    @@fdhfghfgrhrrth It's not even that I disagree, but what hurts is that they went through the trouble to involve one of my favorite worldbuilders ever (Todd MacFarlane), and then just shoved a generic fantasy plot into it, and tucked most of the lore away into random disconnected stones you happen across rather than actually building the world around it. Elder Scrolls does the same thing, which I take issue with. Anything interesting about the world is just slapped into books. You'll never see it for yourself, or know about any of it by talking to people, or by exploring and seeing the effects of these events for yourself. You just have to read about it. It's totally disconnected from the world.

    What older games like the classic God of War entries, Devil May Cry games, Dante's Inferno, Darksiders, Prototype (both of 'em), and so much more have that Atlas Fallen, Godfall, Forspoken, and all the other generic titles don't seem to even come close to is a particularly gripping art style and vibe/atmosphere to the point where these older gems even made it a point to apply those ideas into the HUD/UI. A lot of modern games lately, even the newer God of War games, lack that. Unique HUD/UI and the weight of good atmosphere seems to be something almost entirely lost to time at this point with AAA titles.

    Thank you for the review. It was really helpful . I was looking forward to pre-order it, but just like a lot of other games completely different from the trailer. They are of games. I tried them but ended up 😢, for example: Spell Force:Re-enforment. Far Cry 5....I am not a first-person shooter fan, but I have found so of them to be enjoyable. Also, that does not mean because I am a third-person shooter that I like every third-person shooter gamer. I hope we can have the options between first-person and third-person shooters like DRR II or Medieval Dynasty or some other good games out there. Or have games like Witcher III, where players have more than one outcome. One of the games that I will probably never play again is Cyberpunk 77... based on my opinion thoughts, the story is alright. I will call him an antagonist, I got tired with the antagonist, and I guessed they are trying to portray the truth nature of some human beings, never satisfy, and you trust them they take it trashing it. Every action has a reaction, not because they take someone valuable from you, that mean one has to go and causes massive destruction. These people also have people valuable and dearest to them as well. In my opinion, it's the antagonist own fault. By trying to be a hero, he ended up being a super villain. But you are forced to give in to the villain or become a villain yourself and do anything just to survive. How does anyone feel about that? I'm not any of them, but I rather go with the second opinion.
