Topic: Horizon Forbidden West

@zupertramp For me it wasn't that there wasn't magic with the game. I actually ended up loving the game and liked it better than Zero Dawn, but a big part of it was that it was a bigger/longer game, so I kind of wanted to move on and play something else after 120 hours. That and several of the trophies for side stuff only requires you to do a portion of a lot of the stuff, so some incentive was taken away by that. I get why they did it, but it still helped to keep me from 100% completing the game.

@BearsEatBeets I did the opposite and killed her because it isn't something that had major consequences one way or the other, so it came down to wanting the bow for me. I don't think I really used it much, but that's beside the point. lol

Anyways, I think you're right. I didn't notice anything that should have been different.

@KilloWertz yeah, some of it could be that. I have 133 hours in HFW so definitely invested plenty of time into it. Still I was just surprised I didn't want to stay in this new area of the world a little longer after the story was over.

@RogerRoger It's a random little spot you can find on a island between the far west island and the mainland. I spotted it from above and checked it out.

I know this is about ten years after everyone else, but I finally finished HFW and got the platinum!

What a brilliant game. I've loved being immersed in it, and I'm sad now that it's over.

@JigsawPieces Yeah, I was gutted when I finished it too. Hopefully they will release a big piece of DLC again. Until they announce something, it's Horizon Call of the Mountain on PSVR2 up next.

Side note, built my Lego Tallneck the other day. Beautiful piece.

@JigsawPieces Awesome work on getting the platinum. I really missed HFW after I finished too. I went straight into Elden Ring and even though I enjoyed that it wasn't quite the same. Looking forward to some additional content.

@RogerRoger I used to love Lego when I was a kid, but I haven't been tempted to buy anything since then. I just saw it and thought, why not. It looks beautiful though. The colours and style make it pop.

I've placed it on the side between two big plants and it looks great.

If you like Horizon, I definitely recommend it.

@RogerRoger Easily solved. Sell and kidney and throw away anything taking up space like books, clothes, food etc. Haha.

But yeah, the price of some Lego sets is insane. I would've probably bought other stuff over the years if it wasn't so expensive.

@JigsawPieces Congrats on finally finishing it and getting the platinum.

While by the time I finished it (roughly 115-120 hours I think) I was kind of ready to start another game, I still do miss playing the game if I look back on it like I am now.

It's clear that it lived up to very high expectations for several of us, so that's obviously a very good thing even though the game is over for us.

@KilloWertz Thanks - and well said about it living up to our expectations, too.

More generally, it's good to hear I'm not the only one sad about finishing it! I'll keep my fingers crossed for a decent chunk of dlc landing as an expansion, sometime!

@JigsawPieces You're welcome.

There should be no reason why they don't do some DLC like The Frozen Wilds for Forbidden West. The game definitely deserves it, and it's not like they'd be too busy to do it. It'd be a different team making the PSVR2 game since that was already well in development. It's become even more obvious of late that Sony wants more and more money too. I'm not sure what the DLC would be off the top of my head, but that's Guerrilla's job.

@RogerRoger yeah that blasted Tall Neck. I've been working so hard to keep from ordering that thing. Figured it would be sold out or unavailable if I waited long enough. But I'll be darned if @SoulChimera isn't really selling it here.

@zupertramp Do it, do it, do it, do it. Haha.

@RogerRoger @SoulChimera lol both of you are no help. Much of the problem is my kids have grown out of Legos and I'm not sure if I'm ready to become that adult who buys Legos for themselves. Not out of embarrassment but more I'm worried once I indulge once that's it, the restraints have come completely loose.

Then again maybe I just buy this one right lol.

@zupertramp I’ve avoided it too. Mostly because of the cost. But this isn’t badly priced. It does look really good in real life.

@RogerRoger much better yes.

So uh, how do I start a New Game+? Anyone done this yet?

@zupertramp go to new game and it will give you all your difficulty levels to choose from. New Game+ is in there!

Still haven't finished this game, hope they don't release DLC lol.

@Octane I would love DLC but they can take their time. Plenty things to do, but a return to the world of Horizon would be a welcome one!
