Horizon: Forbidden WestBeat

At its core Forbidden West is a fantastic game, it just has a few things that niggle away at me and stop it becoming a 10/10.
Visually it is stunning, it’s still the best looking game I’ve ever played with ridiculously high fidelity characters and environments, gorgeous lighting, complex weather etc.
The story is solid but not as strong as its predecessor Zero Dawn. The first games story blew my mind but still felt reasonably believable, whereas this story felt like it was veering into superhero film territory. That feeling is exacerbated by the main cast of characters, especially Aloy’s allies, who grated on me over time and who I felt didn’t react believably to the events going on around them.
Combat is once again fantastic and is a real challenge, especially on harder difficulties, and progresssion felt rewarding, although in the inevitable next installment I hope they find a better way to streamline the inventory system/upgrades.
Puzzles can be irritating in this game too, or at least they were for me, especially when Aloy repeatedly narrates everything you’re doing.
My last niggle is a very personal one. While the world is incredible to look at and hear, I wish the game didn’t constantly have music playing at all times. I like when games feature minimal music as the ambient sound of an environment can be incredibly immersive (Red Dead 2, Ico) and I felt the constant music distracting.
What keeps this game at a 9 considering these criticisms, is the visual package overall and the combat. I recommend this game for those fantastic highlights.
