The 1st game was great but for me it was mostly because of the narrative and I really dont see how they can top it or even come close to it in a sequel. Theres nothing more interesting to explore in that regard, I dont think. Hopefully Im proven wrong.

In all seriousness, I think this is the direction they're taking the sequel's story: aliens.

I hope it gets a PC release, and that it doesn't take 3 years to be ported like the first one.

Yeah, this is what I meant. The first game gave an unusual amount of backstory and attention to Far Zenith and their Odyssey project. It's only Far Zenith's word that said the Odyssey was destroyed. The big mystery from the first game is who sent the signal that disrupted GAIA; space-faring humans wanting to move back home would have the means and the motivation.

And then in the last trailer for FW, the woman at the end looks straight outta Star Trek.

the 1st one was fun imo. I never go too far in the main story because got sidetracked and did 60 hours of just killing dinos and upgrading equipment.

eventually i had to stop because wanted to wait for the new rtx 3000 cards to come out because the 2080ti doesn't run the game too well at 4k (chugs to mid 40s fps during rain). idk if any updates have improved the performance since then. ofc i couldnt find a rtx 3000 card because all got sold out during launch day. after that i just lost interest in the game.

If you go to the actual HFW board, or outside of this dying website, there is a decent amount of hype. Plus I'm getting a lot of targeted ads for it which means they are trying to promote the game.

I suspect it'll do well, but February is a crowded month. It'll likely get overshadowed by Elden Ring but nevertheless will be well regarded like the first, except for that oddly salty minority that got really triggered at the first game because Aloy wasn't hot enough for them to jerk it too or something silly like that.

And the vast majority of guys complaining about Aloy are virgins, so I find the whole thing hilarious

There's plenty of hype. The IGN preview from a little over a week ago already has 1.1 million views. A trailer released two days ago on the PlayStation YouTube account is close to 500,000 views already. Hell, one trailer for the game is close to 10 million views. People are very hyped for this game. You're just not going to hear as much about it on some places of the internet due to Elden Ring hype.

GameFaqs doesn't have an active userbase that really plays games that much as it used to. CE is filled with those types so you won't see much discussion on here.

I for one am hyped and can't wait since the first game was fantastic.

I'm more hyped for this game than Elden and Dying Light 2. Made me pushes both of those games to Holiday 2022 sales. I also preordered the Regalla Edition back in September.

Hecc i'm currently playing Zero Dawn again but this time on my PC. 4K, ultra max settings on a 4K OLED, HDR, this game truly looks amazing!

But yes... it's going to be overshadowed by Elden. I wouldn't even mind a delay at this point if they need it.

Because the first game is just a painfully average open world Ubisoft game with great combat.

The story is meh, the dialouge is flat out bad at times, the characters are bland, Aloy is a Mary Sue and is about as interesting as watching paint dry, the world isn't that compelling, etc.

It just isn't that great. Sony fanboys just like to scream about how great it is because it was a console exclusive for years, despite it not being anywhere near the quality of games like Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, or Ratchet and Clank.

I just finished the 1st one a few weeks back the game was alright. The worst of ubisoft openwork combined with a decent story but forgettable characters and was a drag to finish because of the quest design.

Solid 7/10 I'm not hyped for the sequel at all but I'll pick it up.
