Horizon Forbidden West is one of the best games released in the 9th generation, and the graphics of the game are extremely spectacular and special.
You may often find yourself lost in watching the scenery of the game or using photo mode for a long time Without realizing the passage of time.
the gameplay is fun and very breathtaking. Fighting with machines that are many times bigger than your size and they will attack you with all the power and weapons they have.
Some of them will go into the ground and suddenly attack you, some will jump at you, some will fly and some will shoot you from a distance and when all these machines attack you together they will make it very difficult for you.
While the game’s combat is very fun in my opinion, it may not be the same for everyone, the fights are not easy at all and from the beginning it may be a very difficult and annoying experience for players who have their first experience of the game or for players who are not very fast.
The story of the main game is mid or even bad like its predecessor.
STORY
Now, after a year has passed since the release of the game, a DLC called burning shores has been released, which actually takes place in Los Angeles, which is known as burning shores in the game.
After purchasing the DLC and entering the game, aloy Receives a message from Sylens and goes to visit him.
After talking with Sylens, she flies to burning shores and in the first few minutes when she arrives there, she meets her new friend Seyka. She is from the Quen tribe and the story of the DLC starts from here.
The story of the DLC is actually a continuation of the main story of the game, in terms of the story, we are again facing a mediocre or even bad story, and you are likely to skip a lot of conversations.
GAMEPLAY
In terms of gameplay, there have not been many changes compared to the base game, but the presence of those small changes is well felt and makes the game experience better, such as grappling to downed machines and hitting the final attack at the right time, crystals that are on the walls and you can blow them up by shooting them and hit your enemies hard, and definitely a new weapon that is completely different from the rest of the weapons in the game.
New weapon helps the variety of weapons but adding something that contradicts the core nature of the game’s core weapons that have existed since the first game is not very nice in my opinion.
There are some new machines in DLC, one of them that you can override and ride it, is waterwing that allows you to swim in water and fly and this feature is very interesting and definitely It makes this machine your favorite machine in the game.
FINAL BOSS
Finally, lets talk about the final boss fight of the game.
When the trailer was released and it showed that big machine against aloy, it made all the fans excited and fighting with such a big machine was unbelievable.
I was excited for the final boss fight all the 6 hours I was playing the game. Finally, when I got to the boss fight part, my jaw dropped and I was speechless, how great and glorious, and after it was over, I was just wondering if this is just a 9th gen DLC what to expect from games that are coming out in a few months and are completely 9th gen experience.
CONCLUSION
Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores is visually the best game I have ever played, and in terms of gameplay, it is enjoyable for me, although it may not be for everyone.
but the story is the biggest weakness of the game, and I don’t think the story will be great in Someone’s opinion and it may just be the difference between those who say it’s mid and those who say it’s bad.
But in different ways, this game completely shows off the power of the 9th generation console.
