    Be careful with the dynamic HUD setting, don't set that before you learn the game. You know, if you hide something you never used and don't know what it is then you might miss it forever. E.g. I saw beginner players not using and crafting or buying any potions because they hid it right in the beginning, when they didn't even know about them.

    One thing that I discovered a while ago is if you are low on metalshards or overall want more shards, be sure to complete all of the bandit camps. All of the camps have a kind of treasure room with multiple boxes with stuff you can sell plus a lot of shards. Bandit camps may seem like annoying but they are fairly easy if you are patient. My protip is to take down every guy on the edges of the camp area all around and then go towards the middle one bandit at the time.

    I'd direct players straight towards the Tearblaster in the Hunters lodge questline. The other weapons you can get in the lodge are just slightly better versions of regular weapons that require a lot of effort to get but the tearblaster is available much sooner and is much more unique in function. It is so much fun to use as a close range stripping canon that can even stop charging machines dead.

    Great video and good level of detail for anyone who is just picking this game up now. It became free for PlayStation plus members so a lot of these tips are relevant the PS4 players too. I guess having completing all the main missions my tips would be these: Resource satchel upgrade, light all campfires as this will help in fast travelling to side quests and other missions later on or gaining the collectibles and the last thing I would say is don’t rush the game, enjoy the story line and explore the open world. I hope in Horizon Forbidden West they address the clunky climbing and melee combat mechanics. Apart from that this game is amazing with a good story line. I hope Forbidden West can continue to build upon this.

    1 thing i do early game is set game difficulty to story mode then spam farming thunder jaw. Very useful if youre low on metal shards and/or need mods. Also sell the mods you pick up from them for extra profit. Strategy: 1. Use Tearblast arrow on their guns. 2. Use Thunderjaw gun against them. 3. Teleport pretty far away. (So they respawn) 4. Teleport back. 5. Rinse and repeat. 6. Profit You'll get a few thousand metal shards, a lot of resources by doing this for a few minutes. I did this for 30 mins and got around 20k metal shards. Never needed to farm metal shards ever again after that hahaha

    @@lucagain. Yes, technically there are different difficulties but the easiest difficulty in Horizon Zero Dawn is like most other games hard or insane difficulty settings. I played (fought against, really) this game for months when it first came out but it eventually ended up being so difficult and frustrating that I had to throw in the towel. I'd completed everything in the available areas (except some broken quests) but venturing into any new areas meant instant one hit death. This game works against the player more than any other game I've ever played. I'm only telling you this because if you are someone, like me, who thinks about difficulty settings in a game, and I assume you do because you asked, then this game, as beautiful and intriguing as it may be, is just going to be a frustrating slog. One caveat, it has been a very long time since I've played this game, so it's possible that the designers realized that average gamers couldn't finish their game and changed the shittier parts of it with an update. I've checked back often to see if there have been any announcements related to making the game more playable, but I haven't seen any, so I assume they haven't. Of course, that doesn't mean they haven't, they just might not have announced it that way, or I could have missed it. This is also why I won't be playing any subsequent games in the series, which is too bad because it really is beautiful and incredibly inventive in its design, etc. Good luck.

    Increasing the FOV decreases your fps. So anyone who desires high fps or notices there fps isn't as high as it was, but their graphics settings is the same, lower the FOV and watch your fps go back up. Depending on your settings and GPU it can have a huge impact. I have a 6950xt and 5800x3D and with everything on ultra @1440p UW I average about 125 fps in the open world on 70 FOV, but on 100 FOV my FPS drops to about 100. I imagine that this FPS hit could be even more on lesser GPUs.

  • @w0mblemania

    No, don't just increase the FOV. FOV is there for a reason. You need an FOV that suits your viewing *distance* relative to your screen size. If you're playing on a PC, but with a TV 3 meters away, you need a very different FOV than if you're huddled up against a monitor.
