    Hey thanks for the response! Glad to hear it :) definitely agree about the puzzles being spoiled by Aloy, really weird how they implemented that without even an option to turn it off. I also thought it was strange how she gladly risks her life with the amount of stuff she’s trying to handle already, but it does make for a more interesting game I think. Overall the side quests are a bit more interesting and fleshed out than in zero dawn. Also the stash is a really welcome addition compared to the first one.

    I think we play in a similar way, at least on a first playthrough I play like that. I also play the game without fast travel but that’s not for everyone :) hope you make it to the end! It definitely has me excited for Horizon 3.

    I got the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster last week as well, it’s really well done for a remaster and I’m enjoying a full new playthrough. On the way to Meridian now.

    Well said! And now on PS5 it plays so great at a smooth 60 fps, amazing stuff. I frequently start the game just to wander around and fight the machines. At ultra hard it can still be quite challenging even after all these hours.

    The remaster seems to be really well done as well according to early reviews, so looking forward to putting even more hours into it :-) hope they made the inventory management better as that is basically my only issue with the original.

    I do agree the first has the better vibe and story but I think you’d still enjoy finishing Forbidden West and the Burning Shores DLC. The ending was interesting and if you stopped halfway through you might not even have seen some of the new enemies yet! How far did you get?
