*No. [shaking head frantically about underwater combat engagements ideas against possible megalodons, mosasaurs, and piranhas being inspired Gaia machines!]*
A trilogy is not bad 2 games is decent but I feel like there's so much to this game that it can't possibly fit in just 3 games Idk so many possibilities for how the story can go
I just rolled credits on the first game for the first time ever, and MAN I hated Ted Faro. I hated him more than Helis, Dervahl, Sylens, Olin, and HADES put together. How could he have still been such a pompous ass after literally destroying the entire planet?
@@TheGoodMorty95 Yeah, and for an encore, he deleted all of human knowledge and culture to protect the future from it, then murdered all the Alphas. Clearly, he learned the wrong lesson.
@@AretaicGames The way he sounded in audio logs when he came up with the idea that the information is dangerous for future people, it sounded a looooooot like he's grasping for rationalization, looking for excuse to yeet the module. Made me think either someone ordered him (the Far Zenith conspiracy) or he really don't want the future to know that he Tedded up.
@@AretaicGames Nah he just wanted to make sure those who came after didn't know he was the one responsible for ending the world. Also, obligatory r/FuckTedFaro
Still seems strange that she doesn’t have the shield weaver armor or maybe some new outfit that incorporates the shield breaker outfit into her Nora Brave outfit.
The reason why we never saw more than one tallneck together was because originally they were in herds and aloy could hunt and kill them but the devs decided that they looked too docile and it wouldn't be in her character to kill such machines. They then reworked them.
@@piratetv1 I'm pretty sure the idea to use them as cell towers came from the rework. It's in the no clip documentary which if you haven't watched it you should it's very interesting. ruclips.net/video/h9tLcD1r-6w/видео.html
Bro, that scene in the seaweed...I swear that was actual game-play and not a cut-scene. If so, holy shite those graphics. Reason I think it's not a cut-scene is because when she moves the seaweed aside, it clips through her armor and body. That wouldn't happen in a cut-scene or pre-rendered w/e. Omfg. EDIT: Horizon New Dawn is actually a nice name. But yeah, Forbidden West was the obvious choice. They alluded to it enough times
In the cutscene with Sylens, the people appear to be removing residual corruption from a corrupted machine. When the man sticks his spear into the machine's head, the wires on its neck flash bright red (like it's eyes) before going dark. I think Sylens is trying to figure how to remove corruption from machines.
Playstation did a commentary video on the trailer, you can easily find it. He said that a new tribe has figured out too how to take over machines. So not about corruption
It looked to me as if they were overriding corrupted machines. Remember, they're stronger than their non-corrupted analogs. If Sylens is building an army, he might believe they will come in handy.
In the ingame Forbidden West, there's talk of a giant lake with a submerged ancient city. Sounds like something we would get to explore with the new underwater gear.
OMG! Futuristic lord of the rings!!!!! why didnt we think of that!!!??? Guerilla get jotting on your notes!!! we need a super powerful wise friendly wizard type character!! also a samwise!!! a loveable robot companion who may turn against us at any time, aloy may have to throw said companion into a huge volcano and it will rip us all apart
I didn't even notice that Aloy doesn't have a spear in the video. I'm assuming she still has it since she is seen riding an overridden charger. Also in the game the spear just disappears when she draws her bow (I think).
It does disappear but could be due to modeling limits. See how most games that have multiple weapon choices tend to only show one, maybe two at any given point
There are other AI'S. Plant life is Demeters area. Water is Poseidon's. Aloy is gonna need to catch them eventually. I think that's how this game will go. Sylens and aloy trying to catch the sub functions for their own use.
I’m so glad that I finished Zero Dawn yesterday, such a great bloody game that I still want to play all hours of the day just so I can beat it again. I wonder if Sylens is going to be the antagonist, or just a trouble maker. Finishing the game however was a mistake, because now I’m contemplating spending $500+ to buy a new console lol
It's a nice little reference in the logo design, for sure, but all official Guerrilla and Playstation accounts are referring to it - universally and without exception - as "Horizon Forbidden West". No colon, no number.
Little sad and pissed they didn't say anything about that this is not a real representation of what the game will look like. because the game won't look this good which is false advertisement..
@@kennethdavy4051 If you have the game then you should try it, it's really beautiful from above. For the instruction, there is a JorRaptor video about it.
I’m thinking HFW will release early to mid 2021, A lot of the assets have already been developed for the first, so subsequent developments will be far easier and quicker to develop.
Typical Gaming yeah for sure, Sony wouldn’t want to blow their load immediately, give some breathing room between these first party releases. It makes the jump into next gen far more interesting and more of a long term experience.
Cheers for the mention man, love it! Can't wait for your coverage on this one to properly kick off during pre-launch. Btw the Utaru in ZD were described as peaceful plainswalkers and during the Red raids tried to appease the mad sun King with gifts and didn't fight back when attacked, so I feel it's unlikely that they are the faction we see in the trailer. But they could be a splinter group like the Shadow Carja where?
Thanks for your input as always! Yeah great point, on the other hand the people we see earlier in the trailer could be that right? As they don't seem aggressive to me.
I realize this video is old and I haven't really been keeping up so perhaps this has already been answered but wouldn't the aggressive tribe in the video most likely be the Tenakth, like one of the escaped convicts from Sunstone Rock in ZD, Ullia?
In the announcement trailer of Horizon forbidden west, at 1:55 you can see a Chinese writing and right behind the writing there are playing cards, which indicates that it was once a casino or the Chinese writing says “playground”
Things I hope to see in Horizon II: Forbidden West 1. Dialogue and choices that effect the story and characters 2. Larger customisable options for Aloy’s outfits, weapons and face paint 3. The ability to romance certain characters 4. The spear is cool but I’d love to see Aloy wield a sword 5. Side missions that have super secret special unlockables 6.

3:19 I doubt that this was an ancient war machine. The structures looks pretty organic, almost like corals. And there is only one plausible explanation for this purple glow: Hepheastus. We saw similar phenomena in the Frozen wilds DLC, like the Daemonic machines that were also covered in some sort of purple wiring. These coral shapes could also hint that some of gaias subfunctions are fusing with each other, like hepheastus and poseidon. Just look at the huge robotic snapping turtle, it is an amphibious animal that can both life in the water and outside of it. If the subfunctions fuse, then this could mean that they become more advanced and sentient but maybe also a bit chaotic.
I started watching you way back when the original released in early 2017, I'm not too into AC but over the years I've watched your God of War, Spiderman, Jedi: Fallen Order, Ghost of Tsushima, and Avengers videos. It's crazy that we're now approaching HZD2 ,and that The Last of Us 2 releases in just a few days. Time really flies. Thank you for making such fun videos, guides, and tips and tricks. Can't wait for these games and all your future vids on them. :)
I really can't wait for this game. I only got this game (Zero Dawn) because I wanted a new game with bow mechanics, and I've known it had really good graphics and I'm a sucker for good looking games. But I fell in love with the aesthetic, and the story of Aloy and the people she meets while uncovering who she really is, so much so I've played this game more than once just to re experience the story. I can't wait to return to this series
As much as I love this 10/10 game, I do wish for more customizations on weapons and armor. Perhaps maybe color shaders which can be made or gathered and apply it too a shader socket on a gear piece.
I can't believe the time is running so fast. I remember playing Horizon for the first time and later that week watching your tips and tricks videos on the game. I have watched your channel grow from 20 k subs to almost 500k and i am proud to be here since that time. Keep up the good work jordan.
If you explore some ruins and find the sound clips and stuff you find out that in order to help with project enduring victory, they set the pacific trash island on fire to help slow down the hoard and it eventually washed up on the shore of the west coast so I really can't wait to see the remnants of that.
HZD is what brought me to your channel and I am so glad that it did. You are my favorite youtuber and we appreciate all that you do, my friend. I am so excited that we are talking about actual sequel content!!!
Idk... the Tenakth were literal cannibals and were likely the most primitive of all the other tribes. I dont think they would've taken too kindly to him. To me, they look like Carja. There is also a slick possibility they could be Banuk, but there is no telling.
@@papajawn Why would they be either of those tribes, if they were any tribe from HZD most likely they would be Shadow Carja. Though wasting the opportunity to make a new tribe would probably suck, so I'm guessing it's an entirely new tribe.
Og subscriber here, i followed you since HZD got released. I was looking for awesome tips and lore about HZD after I'd platinum it. Still cant believe how far you have reached, I used to watch your video during midnight before sleep trying to decipher meanings behind all these hidden lore within the game. Anyway, proud of you, man.
Could be like God of War 2, where Kratos loses his armor after the battle with the Colossus of Rhodes. Maybe Aloy's armor gets destroyed/damaged in a battle with a new machine that came from the forbidden west and that might be why she set out towards F.W to find out more about them. Or maybe it isn't compatible with the weather of F.W. Or perhaps the devs thought having S.W from the beginning would make her too OP.
@@liberalistbat6352 Yeah. Or it could be the spear Sylens gave Aloy wasn't his real spear, just a copy. Like he made a copy spear with a built-in program that when Aloy stabs HADES, allowed/forced HADES to return to Sylens using his original spear as a homing device. I always wondered why it returned to Sylens at the end of HZD. Could be HADES voluntarily returned or could be it was forced to.
iirc, the Nora Brave outfit is just the default major cutscene outfit, since during the cutscene that plays just before the final fight with HADES and I believe during the final scene as shes riding to Elisabet's grave, she wears that outfit no matter what you have equipped
2:20 also Transamerica pyramid @ 1 O'clock. Fun fact: it was initially going to be much taller to rival east coast's ESB in New York, but due to public outcry it never got it's original height along with a glory.
I would like to see the climbing everywhere feature but implemented in the right way where instead of limiting where the player can travel by texturing walls different depending on whether you can climb or not they make everything a natural texture that blends in with unclimbable walls but it will just make you move on one path like with the current set handholds but just a little more freely so that you don’t run into areas where you get stuck or go to where an objective isn’t.
It’s her signature outfit. I believe they may show is more outfits in later trailers, like how the trailers for HZD showed off the Nora Protector outfit
Not really that weird, there's only three major outfits that you can get in the story I'm pretty sure, and that's the ancient armor which is just her base nora armor you start with, covered in the advanced armor. Her Base suit you start with, which is what was shown. And the Banuk Chieftain armor. It makes sense that they would just go with the most basic.
The red weed from the War of the Worlds. The turtle from the Neverending story (Moya in the swamps of sadness). The mammoths from the LOTR. So many fibes from the trailer and all are awesome.
Of course a new armor would make sense to us but in "reality" Aloy never changed it. You can see that in many cutscenes for example in the ending cutscene where Aloy visits Elizabeth's "grave". So it's only natural that she still wears it.
Thanks a lot for this. It's good to know there is a place on RUclips where I can got to get all the Horizon stories. :-) One thing that I found interesting and that you don't seem to have touched upon: there is a disease spreading throughout the world. I would assume that this is the reason that Aloy goes west - to try andstop the disease. That tribes person who dug out that root surely was sad because of the decay all around. The red plants/vines seem to be causing it. Also, it was so touching to see Aloy feel sorry for that dying fox.
The game isn't just the San Francisco area. As we can see in the climbing sequence it shows what looks like el capitan and half dome in yosemite national Park. As well as the solar panals in a later desert scene. I think this is the state of navada near to Las Vegas.
I think the location goes between nevada and California, nevada as the desert part of the video and obviously california as we see san Francisco but we also get to see the Yosemite Valley in the part where alloy is climbing
I remember when I first started playing Horizon Zero Dawn in 2018 I would always come to this channel to watch some videos about it. Can't wait til the sequel will come out.
It's interesting that you mention the climbing dynamics of the game appearing to be enhanced. It makes sense. HZD was the first game in a projected trilogy, so Sony understandably wasn't going to invest a whole ton of money into a game they had no idea would perform both in terms of play and in sales. It's not like BotW because Nintendo knows their Zelda games will always be hits, so there's so much money put into those games. Now that Sony knows the Horizon franchise is incredibly viable, of course Guerrilla got more funding for it.
At 4:15, I think they still attack underwater but hiding in the seaweed gives some form of stealth. Storywise, how crazy would it be if those 3 meteors are actually "old ones" that fled to space a thousand years ago returning to Earth
One think about the "overridden" machine with yellow eyes. In the game yellow just means it's suspicious, red means it's hostile. So the video doesn't mean Sylens actually overrided that boar. Just like how hostile machines go to yellow when you disappear from their sight.
@@GhostInPajamas not an archer myself, but if you look at professional archers, they always aim from the cheek, since you align your sight with the arrow's direction. Moreover, in the first game, Aloy actually does aim correctly. This makes the last scene look strange in the trailer
As always, thank you, JorRaptor for the wonderful news. I'm always hyped to watch ur news about Horizon and can't wait for the game to come! So looking forward to it. Keep it going, buddy :). Ur the best!
@JorRaptor - Well done for guessing the title "Forbidden West" 2 years ago based on clues in the game, I subscribed just because of that - that's some serious detective work!!
Just played through HZD for the first time. There's a conversation at the very end of the Frozen Wilds expansion that seems to connect to this trailer, especially to that strange red plant growing everywhere. Aloy says something like: "An AI that makes flowers instead of machines. Sounds nice!" So, she may be running into Demeter in HFW. Also (spoilers here), I suspect Sylens added a little something to the master override when he copied it to a new focus for Aloy, something that would allow some reduced version of Hades to survive and force it to transfer itself into Sylens' control.
As i mentioned in a comment on the trailer, i hope that we get to see actual small arms like pre-collapse assault rifles, pistols, shotguns and more in forbidden west that you're able to craft ammo for and aren't just disposable, drop-when-dry (dry=out of ammo) heavy weapons. As i said over there, it would be delusional if aloy didn't gain thee knowledge of at least some pre-collapse firearms after having so many interactions with pre-collapse electronics and the data they contain.
I wonder why nobody noticed the El Capitan in the background when Aloy was climbing that mountain. So this obviously takes place in a large area of California and, like in the Frozen Wilds the Yellowstone Park was to be discovered, here it is Yosemite. I believe that we will get activities similar to the ones in Frozen Wilds, based on this national park.
The first one ended perfectly and didn't think they'd be a sequel. I was hoping for one. As soon I heard the soundtrack in the reveal I was fangirling with so much hype.
I glad it isnt called Horizon Zero Dawn 2 for two reasons. 1) that's be kinda redundant but more importantly 2) Horizon is the series name whole Zero Dawn was the tagline. Think of it like Horizon: Zero Dawn & Horizon 2: Forbidden West
I was waiting for you to make this video. I'm so excited to see this game and play it, but I'm casually replaying the trailer to make up for the hype! ^^
Fun fact:most machines in this game will be inspired of the comic The footage captured in the trailer is actually already developed cutscences In the game and I am pretty sure the tribe we will be focusing on this game is the Utalru it's pretty cool I just hope we get more variety in quests especially side quests not that they were bad in the 1st game

That would give me major Avatar vibes.

Bro under water exploring am sold take my money sony
I have to say I love how in media, it's generally assumed that the main character can always see in perfect clarity with their eyes open underwater.
I didn't even notice that Aloy doesn't have a spear in the video. I'm assuming she still has it since she is seen riding an overridden charger. Also in the game the spear just disappears when she draws her bow (I think).
It does disappear but could be due to modeling limits. See how most games that have multiple weapon choices tend to only show one, maybe two at any given point
Spoiler warning. Remember that Gia said that the teraforming systems will last for a while before braking down,that must be what's happening.
or maybe HADES is now using a new way to eradicate all life?
@@kaypeezee So maybe the story is Aloy trying to fix it.

3:19 I doubt that this was an ancient war machine. The structures looks pretty organic, almost like corals. And there is only one plausible explanation for this purple glow: Hepheastus. We saw similar phenomena in the Frozen wilds DLC, like the Daemonic machines that were also covered in some sort of purple wiring. These coral shapes could also hint that some of gaias subfunctions are fusing with each other, like hepheastus and poseidon. Just look at the huge robotic snapping turtle, it is an amphibious animal that can both life in the water and outside of it. If the subfunctions fuse, then this could mean that they become more advanced and sentient but maybe also a bit chaotic.
I started watching you way back when the original released in early 2017, I'm not too into AC but over the years I've watched your God of War, Spiderman, Jedi: Fallen Order, Ghost of Tsushima, and Avengers videos. It's crazy that we're now approaching HZD2 ,and that The Last of Us 2 releases in just a few days. Time really flies. Thank you for making such fun videos, guides, and tips and tricks. Can't wait for these games and all your future vids on them. :)
Been waiting for more than 3 years. Finally! I'm so excited!!
Me tooooooo
I really can't wait for this game. I only got this game (Zero Dawn) because I wanted a new game with bow mechanics, and I've known it had really good graphics and I'm a sucker for good looking games.
But I fell in love with the aesthetic, and the story of Aloy and the people she meets while uncovering who she really is, so much so I've played this game more than once just to re experience the story. I can't wait to return to this series
As much as I love this 10/10 game, I do wish for more customizations on weapons and armor. Perhaps maybe color shaders which can be made or gathered and apply it too a shader socket on a gear piece.
I can't believe the time is running so fast. I remember playing Horizon for the first time and later that week watching your tips and tricks videos on the game. I have watched your channel grow from 20 k subs to almost 500k and i am proud to be here since that time. Keep up the good work jordan.
If you explore some ruins and find the sound clips and stuff you find out that in order to help with project enduring victory, they set the pacific trash island on fire to help slow down the hoard and it eventually washed up on the shore of the west coast so I really can't wait to see the remnants of that.
HZD is what brought me to your channel and I am so glad that it did. You are my favorite youtuber and we appreciate all that you do, my friend.
I am so excited that we are talking about actual sequel content!!!
HZD 1 got me back into story based game and I excited for HZD 2
horizon zero dawn isn’t really a story based game, it’s more focused on the open world and combat
This is how I found your channel! From the very first a few years ago. Can’t wait for the future🙌🙏
I honestly think he really started building his channel around HZD, good content.
0:10 how intentional was that, i need to know!?!? 😂😱
It was 🤭
- The video's editor (Joyce)
I can’t believe you predicted the name 2 years before the name was revealed.
Found your channel back in 2017 looking for Horizon content. Its great to see Horizon back on the channel. Keep up the great content!!!
Awesome as always Jor!! ✌🏻🏹🌞
Maybe those people with Sylens are part of the Tenakth tribe.
Idk... the Tenakth were literal cannibals and were likely the most primitive of all the other tribes. I dont think they would've taken too kindly to him. To me, they look like Carja. There is also a slick possibility they could be Banuk, but there is no telling.
Colour scheme is off. The Tenakth are blue and red. These guys look different.
Shadow utaru
@@papajawn Why would they be either of those tribes, if they were any tribe from HZD most likely they would be Shadow Carja. Though wasting the opportunity to make a new tribe would probably suck, so I'm guessing it's an entirely new tribe.
I thought It was said they were from 'the south'
Og subscriber here, i followed you since HZD got released. I was looking for awesome tips and lore about HZD after I'd platinum it. Still cant believe how far you have reached, I used to watch your video during midnight before sleep trying to decipher meanings behind all these hidden lore within the game.
Anyway, proud of you, man.
Thanks a lot Hansel, hope you are along for the ride with Forbidden West too!
Your intro always puts a smile on my face 😁
I remember the good old days when jorraptor had a couple of thousands subs and now he’s almost at 500k
Could be like God of War 2, where Kratos loses his armor after the battle with the Colossus of Rhodes. Maybe Aloy's armor gets destroyed/damaged in a battle with a new machine that came from the forbidden west and that might be why she set out towards F.W to find out more about them. Or maybe it isn't compatible with the weather of F.W. Or perhaps the devs thought having S.W from the beginning would make her too OP.
Or sylens steals everything. If he took his spear back, he could have taken other stuff
@@liberalistbat6352 Yeah. Or it could be the spear Sylens gave Aloy wasn't his real spear, just a copy. Like he made a copy spear with a built-in program that when Aloy stabs HADES, allowed/forced HADES to return to Sylens using his original spear as a homing device. I always wondered why it returned to Sylens at the end of HZD. Could be HADES voluntarily returned or could be it was forced to.
@@d3mystic93 yeah if u see random side quest the Lance was made to send Hades back he tricked aloy
iirc, the Nora Brave outfit is just the default major cutscene outfit, since during the cutscene that plays just before the final fight with HADES and I believe during the final scene as shes riding to Elisabet's grave, she wears that outfit no matter what you have equipped
That sphere has the Master override that was used to defeat HADES right. So Sylens can override any mechine.
The override was for people with alpha logins. Even after using it, Aloy has to login to hades to issue a shut down. Sylens doesn't have that
2:20 also Transamerica pyramid @ 1 O'clock.
Fun fact: it was initially going to be much taller to rival east coast's ESB in New York, but due to public outcry it never got it's original height along with a glory.
I would like to see the climbing everywhere feature but implemented in the right way where instead of limiting where the player can travel by texturing walls different depending on whether you can climb or not they make everything a natural texture that blends in with unclimbable walls but it will just make you move on one path like with the current set handholds but just a little more freely so that you don’t run into areas where you get stuck or go to where an objective isn’t.
Great video as always Joraptor!
0:10 i appreciate the little wordplay here
I noticed the fact that the mammals had houses on top of them which could mean new mounts for horizon two
I thought that "house" looked like bandit huts. so mobile bandit camps?!!!!!
I completely agree with regards to her outfit. Was hoping to see a slightly updated design in the sequel. Weird they kept her design the exact same
Robert Phillips a trailer which depicts here design which is what we’re discussing. What’s your point?
It’s her signature outfit. I believe they may show is more outfits in later trailers, like how the trailers for HZD showed off the Nora Protector outfit
Not really that weird, there's only three major outfits that you can get in the story I'm pretty sure, and that's the ancient armor which is just her base nora armor you start with, covered in the advanced armor. Her Base suit you start with, which is what was shown. And the Banuk Chieftain armor. It makes sense that they would just go with the most basic.
The red weed from the War of the Worlds.
The turtle from the Neverending story (Moya in the swamps of sadness).
The mammoths from the LOTR.
So many fibes from the trailer and all are awesome.
Of course a new armor would make sense to us but in "reality" Aloy never changed it. You can see that in many cutscenes for example in the ending cutscene where Aloy visits Elizabeth's "grave". So it's only natural that she still wears it.
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Though it would still be cool to maybe see some small pauldrons made of scrap metal, or just some tiny bits of extra armor to better protect Aloy...
@@dragonbornexpress5650 yeah I agree. It would be cool to see little upgrades in that outfit.
But hey at least they changed the bow. It was annoying to see Aloy use different bow you didn't have in that form in cutscenes.
Haha good timing on the dive deep phrase as the character dives in the water lol spot on lad
1:03 Oh, I was expecting it to come along with the PS5...
Thanks a lot for this. It's good to know there is a place on RUclips where I can got to get all the Horizon stories. :-) One thing that I found interesting and that you don't seem to have touched upon: there is a disease spreading throughout the world. I would assume that this is the reason that Aloy goes west - to try andstop the disease. That tribes person who dug out that root surely was sad because of the decay all around. The red plants/vines seem to be causing it. Also, it was so touching to see Aloy feel sorry for that dying fox.
The game isn't just the San Francisco area. As we can see in the climbing sequence it shows what looks like el capitan and half dome in yosemite national Park. As well as the solar panals in a later desert scene. I think this is the state of navada near to Las Vegas.
The amount of excitement in your voice is what makes you different
lets go, happy you're gonna be doing more horizon content
Enjoyed your video dude, thanks for the insight. Look forward to this release!
I think the location goes between nevada and California, nevada as the desert part of the video and obviously california as we see san Francisco but we also get to see the Yosemite Valley in the part where alloy is climbing
So cool details man I highly enjoyed this 👌
Horizon Zero Dawn is what got me watching your channel. Can't wait for the second one and your videos about it.
I remember when I first started playing Horizon Zero Dawn in 2018 I would always come to this channel to watch some videos about it. Can't wait til the sequel will come out.
It's interesting that you mention the climbing dynamics of the game appearing to be enhanced. It makes sense. HZD was the first game in a projected trilogy, so Sony understandably wasn't going to invest a whole ton of money into a game they had no idea would perform both in terms of play and in sales. It's not like BotW because Nintendo knows their Zelda games will always be hits, so there's so much money put into those games. Now that Sony knows the Horizon franchise is incredibly viable, of course Guerrilla got more funding for it.
That "Gravios" is actually a Basarios I'll have you know.
"dive deep into the trailer" while the clip immediately shows aloy diving underwater.
I see what you did there...
Agreed, well timed and appreciated!
At 4:15, I think they still attack underwater but hiding in the seaweed gives some form of stealth. Storywise, how crazy would it be if those 3 meteors are actually "old ones" that fled to space a thousand years ago returning to Earth
One think about the "overridden" machine with yellow eyes. In the game yellow just means it's suspicious, red means it's hostile. So the video doesn't mean Sylens actually overrided that boar. Just like how hostile machines go to yellow when you disappear from their sight.
Did not mention the crops and the red plants.
7:30 , to me it feels weird that Aloy would aim the bow from the chest instead of the cheek
Good point. I don’t know much about archery but maybe there are some circumstances where shooting from the chest has advantages
@@GhostInPajamas not an archer myself, but if you look at professional archers, they always aim from the cheek, since you align your sight with the arrow's direction. Moreover, in the first game, Aloy actually does aim correctly. This makes the last scene look strange in the trailer
I'm guessing it's just if you press shoot without ads. So basically just a quick shot not a precision shot. Still strange tho.
My last playthrough was December 2017. Just beat the frozen wilds last night and can't wait for the new game!
As always, thank you, JorRaptor for the wonderful news. I'm always hyped to watch ur news about Horizon and can't wait for the game to come! So looking forward to it. Keep it going, buddy :). Ur the best!
There is no possible way of measuring the amount of excitement i felt under the stream when i realized it was a Horizon trailer
@JorRaptor - Well done for guessing the title "Forbidden West" 2 years ago based on clues in the game, I subscribed just because of that - that's some serious detective work!!
Just played through HZD for the first time. There's a conversation at the very end of the Frozen Wilds expansion that seems to connect to this trailer, especially to that strange red plant growing everywhere. Aloy says something like: "An AI that makes flowers instead of machines. Sounds nice!"
So, she may be running into Demeter in HFW.
Also (spoilers here), I suspect Sylens added a little something to the master override when he copied it to a new focus for Aloy, something that would allow some reduced version of Hades to survive and force it to transfer itself into Sylens' control.
As i mentioned in a comment on the trailer, i hope that we get to see actual small arms like pre-collapse assault rifles, pistols, shotguns and more in forbidden west that you're able to craft ammo for and aren't just disposable, drop-when-dry (dry=out of ammo) heavy weapons. As i said over there, it would be delusional if aloy didn't gain thee knowledge of at least some pre-collapse firearms after having so many interactions with pre-collapse electronics and the data they contain.
we need a visual customization for amour just like the one in assassin creed that would be perfect
True
I wonder why nobody noticed the El Capitan in the background when Aloy was climbing that mountain. So this obviously takes place in a large area of California and, like in the Frozen Wilds the Yellowstone Park was to be discovered, here it is Yosemite. I believe that we will get activities similar to the ones in Frozen Wilds, based on this national park.
I've been waiting for you to upload a video for Horizon Forbidden West because I know that it's one of your favorite game franchise!!!
This game looks absolutely amazing, day one buy for sure!!!
I hope guerilla games include alcatraz as a location! That would be awesome to see in the game!
The first one ended perfectly and didn't think they'd be a sequel. I was hoping for one. As soon I heard the soundtrack in the reveal I was fangirling with so much hype.
That Sylens guy is suspicious AF...
If I played the first for sure
U*
You nailed it bro , well done.
Looking forward to this one, hope Aloy has a golf club.
I glad it isnt called Horizon Zero Dawn 2 for two reasons. 1) that's be kinda redundant but more importantly 2) Horizon is the series name whole Zero Dawn was the tagline. Think of it like Horizon: Zero Dawn & Horizon 2: Forbidden West
I was waiting for you to make this video. I'm so excited to see this game and play it, but I'm casually replaying the trailer to make up for the hype! ^^
Fun fact:most machines in this game will be inspired of the comic The footage captured in the trailer is actually already developed cutscences In the game and I am pretty sure the tribe we will be focusing on this game is the Utalru it's pretty cool I just hope we get more variety in quests especially side quests not that they were bad in the 1st game
In zero dawn I don't actually use the shield weaver armour. I use the bank chieftain armour as it regenerates health after a short time
