Topic: Horizon Forbidden West

@KilloWertz @MightyDemon82 I grew an attachment to one of the Fire Bristlebacks that I overrode, so much so that I ended up naming it Brian. I must have spent a hell of a lot of shards fixing him as he was a pretty angry guy. It was my fault for making him aggressive but he just spent a lot of time smashing up and thing that moved 😂

@render 😂 That's brilliant, perhaps something they can patch into the game engraving a name on your beloved mounts!

70 hours in and still really enjoying it. I have been avoiding the main quest line so hard because I don't want it to end.

@MightyDemon82 I was getting annoyed having my mounts get killed if there were too many machines around, or if I had to keep going through the Barren Light over and over to travel anywhere earlier on in the game since there was no way around it. So I try to "park" my mount away from where I'm going to end up fighting (unless it's just one machine) since even two machines seem to be able to take down a Fire Bristleback somehow.

@render Was your's green? Did Aloy yell out "Hulk Smash" anytime you were entering a battle? Or maybe it was orange and you yelled out "It's Clobbering Time!"?

@Splat Same here, although I do end up doing one here and there if it's something that's way under my current level. That way I know there will still be plenty left, but I still get to experience bits of it every so often.

@Splat same here 75 hours in and loving every second. Was just exploring tonight and was ambushed by 3 ravagers. So that was fun, met a new lady to help her with Scavenge contracts. But best of all I did something for Kotallo, please tell me all the people who rushed through the game at least did this one
Very excited to see the results later in the game 😃

@KilloWertz it would be cool if you could power them down or put them in standby. That way you could safely leave it hidden somewhere and not worry about it being damaged/destroyed in battle.

@KilloWertz 😂 perhaps I should have called him Bruce!

Great to hear you guys are all enjoying it still. It’s a great game and an amazing world Guerrilla have built. I’ll be interested to hear what you all think of the story once you finish but no rush 😉

@MightyDemon82 Yeah, not a bad idea. Ironically enough, I lost my mount earlier tonight after I posted that. I guess I was too far away from it for too long while doing a quest and I can't call it anymore. It was nice knowing you, Bruce.

@render Since you didn't call your's Bruce, I'll call mine Bruce. Well, I suppose Bruce II since I lost Bruce earlier. I guess he got bored waiting on me. Actually, on second thought, he doesn't deserve the name Bruce, so the next one will just be Bruce instead.

@MightyDemon82 I love how a random combat encounter can end up being one hell of a fight.

@KilloWertz You proved not worthy Bruce, therefore in death you will be nameless and that honour will be bestowed on another 😆

@render Lol, if there was a like feature on here like there is in the comments section, I would have just hit it. There is not, so good one.

I finally finished the game last night and despite initially really enjoying it, I thought it all ended a bit flat. I'm a little disappointed in it to be honest. The story, despite a couple of interesting moments, never really gripped me and I thought all of the main antagonists were very forgettable. And I must say, I grew a little tired of Aloy in the end, never thought I'd ever say that.
Alva, Kotallo and Morlund were pretty cool, though.

@ApostateMage The story really does seem to have split people. I personally thought it as great, and as a follow up couldn't have asked for more. Some of the new characters worked well and added some personality to things and it also felt like it had got a good flow to it even though I'd taken a lot of time out between furthering the story to do side quests. I can appreciate that not everyone will feel the same way though but hopefully you got something out of playing the game.

@LN78 Huh?

@LN78 @KilloWertz I can also vouch for this, although not seen this specific video yet.

I've enjoyed Yahtzee's reviews off and on over the years (since I was a teen, jfc), but this one just came off as lazy. Complaining about not getting a review code. Admitting he rushed through the main story as quickly as possible and ignored side content because he only had a week to play it. Some vaguely misogynistic sniping about Aloy, as if you don't play as a lone wolf sort of hero in the majority of games to begin with, because they're usually structured around the exploits of a single character.

Managed to get stuck in a spot five minutes after downloading the patch that was supposed to fix the frequency of getting stuck in places lol.

@LN78 Well, that makes sense now.

I don't think I've ever watched any of their reviews, but I'll try to remember to check them out the next time I'm on YouTube. Never can have too much legitimately funny stuff to watch.

@velio84 I think it's more likely that your memory sucks. Getting too old already...

@Octane I don't mean to poke fun at your problems with the game, but given how often it seems that you encounter a glitch in a game that isn't full of ones that happen very often (I think I can still count how many I've encountered on one hand), maybe it's you and not the game.

@KilloWertz I wish I was kidding. I'm literally stuck again. This time I fast traveled and I got spawned inside a rock. I wasn't even playing the game much between my last post and now, I took an hour break. That's like twice in an hour.

I only meant to play for an hour tonight but ended up doing 3 and a half, Met up with Talanah after finishing up some salvage contracts. Now on my way to do the Faro's tomb main quest. Superb game!

@Octane That's crazy. Once again, I know you're not making stuff up of course, but I've never had anything like that ever happen. It's so weird that you are having way more trouble with the game than most are.
