More Horizon Forbidden West for me. I've explored pretty much all of the map and have made it to LVL 45, and I haven't even started looking for Poseidon, Aether, etc. Although I just got the diving mask before Poseidon, but now it makes me want to explore any underwater caverns I've passed by previously.
I've been slowly chipping away at Borderlands 4 with my wife since I got my PS5 a few months ago. We played some more last night, and I've come to the conclusion that its my least favorite Borderlands game. It's not bad, but I dont care for the story at all (I barely know whats happening), the map is too big and empty, the soundtrack sucks, and the UI is absolutely terrible (especially in split screen). It's only saving grace is that the gameplay is still generally fun. Shooting and combat feels good and I like the grapple and jet boots addition. But we only get the drive to play it once every few weekends if my daughter stays at her grandparents house for the night or goes to a friend's house for a sleepover. I think its because the game feels too big and daunting, and that we keep forgetting what we're doing. We've been just sticking to main missions for the last few play sessions. We want to wrap it up soon so we can play Absolum and Scott Pilgrim EX when it comes out.
Other than that, I'm hooked on Horizon Forbidden West. I'm enjoying exploring this big environment much more than Borderlands 4. I don't mind being absorbed in this world for the months to come.
More Horizon Forbidden West for me. I'll probably be playing this one for months. I absolutely love it though, so that's fine by me. The game feels a lot more challenging than Zero Dawn, so battles are feeling a lot more risky. I certainly can't rely on explosives as much as I did in the first game since the resources are a lot more scarce right now.
I started Horizon Forbidden West this morning. Just made it to the first campfire, and I'm loving it so far. I finished up the first game on New Year's Day, and I couldnt resist the urge to jump right back into this world. I'm also in the process of playing Ball x Pit, and Borderlands 4 in co op with my wife, but I think that Horizon will be my new obsession for the next month or two.
