you are in general expected to just buy new weapons.
and striking weak points in general is important.
yeah, i got that, but even if i hit their weak point with my regular bow (that doesn't do tear damage), i do like 29 instead of 20 damage.
But thanks, i'm always hesitant to buy gear in games where i feel like the game would hand me upgrades throughout the story.
But i got like 8000 metal shards already, so might as well spend em.

Ok finishing off the platinum didn't end up being as bad as I thought. 61 hrs total playtime. I think it's my first legit platinum not counting Telltale Games stuff.
Extremely polished for open world and first attempt too. I can't think of a single bug I ran into not to mention they were quick to push out patches. My main issue was story delivery was a bit...lets just say I'm not a fan of big info dumps and a lot of the back story was done in that way.
Still 9/10 for me as an overall package. Interested to see what they can do for a sequel now that they have the first game under their belt. GG Guerilla.

it's quite likely, given the theories I have seen, but I hope they are wrong as...
Calfornia has been done to death in media in general, I would rather have some place that is rarely tapped like colorado was for this game. so here's hoping for Oregon
Normally I'd agree with you,
I think California is the most overdone US setting, (when it was announced that GTAV would take place there I was super disappointed, for instance) but you should read the glyph that describes tales from people that have ventured to the Forbidden West. It doesn't sound like California and the surrounding regions remained at all unchanged, some descriptions make it sound barely earth-like. There are mentions of sprawling blue sand dunes, prairies with razor-sharp grasses with shivering black flowers, and an ancient city buried underneath "sour" water. I think I'm ok with them setting it in California if it gets that crazy.

We made it to OT2! And with the best title!
Amazing game. Finished at 3:30 am last night. I hate life at work atm.
Totally worth it though! Guerilla made me feel...feels. Thats gotta be my gaming surprise og the year so far. Great storytelling, characters and gameplay. Hard really was a nice spot for me in terms om enjoyment.
Now give me a better final boss and i'm golden!

well yeah if they do go there I expect them to do it well.
and given the setting there is plenty of flexibility in general to make things drastically different then our current world anyways.
Have 45 hours in this game and 65% finished, I am sad the game is almost finished. Cant believe Guerilla made this game, this is some CD project level shit and in some areas much better. Graphics, gameplay, story all top notch. Small issue is fighting humans, is so boring and has no challenge compared to fighting machines. And would be nice to be able to lock onto a enemy.

Only fitting that I hit level 50 today after slaying our former "friend"
. Honestly everything feels too easy after getting the ancient armor. Taking my time and looking for side quests before pushing on and completing the last few missions.

My eyes hurt just by reading this post.
Just beat the game and that was one of the best game experiences in my life. A fine RPG with a world that is vivid and rich. And a thrilling sci-fi story.
Aloy is undoubtedly one of the best protagonists to ever grace a game. The emotions I'm feeling right now are hard to explain. All I know is that I experienced something beautiful and moving in her quest to understand her place in the world.
Guerilla congratulations and thank you so much for this masterpiece.

No concentration could be fun, but without mods it would probably be insufferable. How many times would you need to hit a canister for it to trigger?

It's funny how this game has people inventing ways to increase its challenge. After I realized Very Hard wasn't hard enough, I imposed a no crafting during combat rule and started playing with Aloy's Proving outfit.
I really hope we get a ng+ with a higher difficulty.
Yeah, going to clean them up with remote play. As usual RP has the worst control scheme possible, L/R2 on the back touch buttons...

Rost would be an easier sell to most I think.
that being said... why not both, and then also a more in depth story dlc about the past fighting the robots
Oh, I'd be fine with both.
I just like the idea of revisiting that particular cast of characters in a different context. lol

This guy holds one of the most interesting sidequests in the game, and it's so easily missed if you don't explore the world.

I'm on the wall of shame! Yuhuuuu! First time for everything. Hahahaha. I'm surprised Sushi_Legend didn't make it.
I wish we get to see him again on a potential DLC.

Freeze bombs.
Ropecaster followed by freezing(to slow it down) followed by rain of attacks on it's two green container on the sides.
if you explode both I'm pretty sure it will die.
An expansion with no further details was officially announced in the first 2 weeks sales press release, so it's not just a rumour.
At the end of the quest he did say that he would
now go to the Forbidden West, which I suspect is going to be the sequel location.

The
blue sand dunes is the Pacific Ocean
Whoever wrote it had never seen the sea.

Holy shit, I'm on my phone and thought that second pic was cosplay. The lighting is crazy there.
