    Meh, HFW was 100% a step down.

    They added climbing to the engine and somehow made that dumb story even dumber while adding a ton of farming and time fillers.

      Agreed. I couldn’t wait for it to come out as the first one is one of my favourite games of all time. Didn’t finish it because it was so boring. They removed the whistling for some reason, so now sneak kills are almost impossible. Overcomplicated equipment. And they added some stupid chess like mini game, because every open world game has to have its own Gwent now.

        Strongly agree on the overcomplicated equipment and useless chess game. They added a lot thinking that it would be an improvement, but for me it’s only unnecessary bloating

      When aloy threatened to kill an innocent guard just doing his job I wanted her to be arrested but she got away with everything because she’s a special princess and she will never stop reminding everyone of that.

      I liked aloy in the first game. She was inquisitive , sharp, and kind. In the second game she really needed an ego check.
