so i finally beat the game and now im doing new game plus. overall, i really do like this game, though it has it's flaws, andi hope that if there is a second game, it fixes those flaws
 
This game was amazing! I didn't really get any SJW vibes from the game at all; the main character just happens to be a woman, and she's not a Mary Sue. The game can also really beat your ass if you aren't properly prepared to fight. I do wish there were less "Gotta track this guy" missions.

I'm currently grinding to level 50 to beat the expansion and then go on to do New Game +. I'm also trying to figure out if either this, Spider-Man, or God of War would be my all time favorite PS4 game.

I hope they fix Aloy's face.

Her physique was actually distracting because of how awkward it was. The model without the armor on looked like it was missing muscle groups and that she had some horrible cripple disease.
 
Will most likely buy the sequel. I thought the end boss battle was a bit rushed but I overall really enjoyed playing this while coming in with no expectations. Haven't played the frozen wilds, though.

Play The Frozen Wilds. It’s challenging, well-written, adds nicely to the base story and has some really unique missions and challenges.

plus the weapons you get are nice. literally one shot some robot deer with one of the bows and there's the armor that heals you
 
This was just released on Steam. Getting mixed reviews because it's an apparently shitty port.
 
Why does kid Aloy look like a man?

OP aged like fine wine, because i'm sorry to say that this game is not good.
More like "first impressions" since i don't really want to keep playing this...
First the good:
Shooting robots with a bow feels pretty nice,
Now the bad:
MC cant walk straight, and the camera shifts like crazy, this might have worked on consoles but not here.
The story and lore is pretty bland, i have most of it spoiled so it won't get better as the game goes on. Side missions are straight up insulting.
Crafting/healing relying on picking up trash from the ground is pretty grading, crafting items on enemies are somehow not guaranteed which is doubly tedious.
Combat falls apart when you realize that if you're low on health you can just run a few meters back and enemies wont be able to follow you
The game is very visually noisy and doesn't look very good overall. Foliage looks nice but surfaces generally do not. I like the obnoxious visual effects but i'd imagine not everybody will.
This is not really a point but every face except maybe the MC is unbearably ugly for some reason.
The game is very handholdy and overall idiot-proof, characters will repeat what you have to do over and over in case you have short attention spawn i guess, everybody praises the MC for basic shit, every climbable object is marked, so on. Playing it makes me feel like i'm in special ed or something.

Outside the story stuff this is spot on. The game looks like it could be a lot better but it just feels like it's missing too much.
