Okay has maybe the coolest credit sequence I have seen in any game.

If it weren’t for the machines and people trying to kill me, I’d almost feel like I’m on my holidays.

I feel like this shows exactly how Aloy feels about 98% of conversations she has with people.

Morning Folks! I've been playing a lot of since the PC release last week and talk about some of my experiences. This is a gorgeous game but not one without a few slowdown issues in a single area of the game. That seems to have been resolved in a patch but talk through those issues nonetheless.

Good morning and happy Tuesday to all of you!

It's a new day with new things on the agenda, so let's discuss what the plans are for the day.

It's work stuff here as usual with only one meeting instead of two since my boss is on vacation this week.

After the work stuff, it'll likely just be time playing Horizon Forbidden West on PC.

It's a new week, so let's all comment below with what the week has in store for all of us and what we hope to accomplish.

For me, it's usual work stuff with meetings here and there and not much else work wise I don't think.

Tonight will be Fortnite with friends and I'll hopefully get some more time playing Horizon Forbidden West.

Horizon Forbidden West (PC) looks glorious, but already fallen foul to basic tropes.
A sequel where your character has none of the skills you learned in the fist game.
And a companion that won't hesitate to start a fight while you're sneaking.

Early days, but disappointing.

Good morning and happy Saturday to all of you here within the

It's the weekend, so let's all comment below and talk about our plans for the weekend.

Nothing at all planned here due to it raining all day today and tomorrow. So it's two days filled with Horizon Forbidden West on PC!

Just going to take it easy and relax all weekend long.

That feeling when you snipe a blue jay out of the sky because you need the damn feathers to upgrade your quiver.

Almost half of the has gone by, so I believe this is the right time to start thinking about the , and what better way of doing so than talking about the videogames you'll play during the next days?

Tell me your !

I'll be playing mostly The Purring Quest and maybe a bit of Helldivers 2, although the latest is not so appealing as it was originally.

Maybe a bit of Euro Truck Simulator 2 too!

I have spent a very happy few hours back in the world of Aloy.

I’ve been waiting a long while for this to come to PC and so far it’s definitely worth it. It is stunningly pretty.

I don’t want to go to bed or do work tomorrow.

I am blown away by the mocap.
Also, I am obsessed with this guy’s chest. Hair and realistic nipples!
How far we’ve come.

For the folks who were asking, does indeed run on the . Mine is an OLED version, and running H2FW makes it spin up like a jet engine. By default, it runs in 1200x800.

While the game's not buttery smooth, it's certainly playable. I'd recommend going in and disabling Bloom, blur, vignette, shake, etc., for best performance.

The default settings are fine, though. It works well enough.

Screenshot from "Horizon: Forbidden West" running on a SteamDeck. This is a wide shot from the intro, with a fog-covered mountain range in the distance, and a Thunderjaw on a hill in the foreground. The landscape doesn't look too bad, but the Thunderjaw is very low poly, and the camera blur is pretty gnarly.

They are in a small basin surrounded by lush vegetation, with a "shoot me" ladder in the distance. This shot shows off the settings I landed on by disabling most of the filters. This makes it a little pixelated, but I prefer it to a blurry, muddy mess.

It's a beach scene, with water, white sand, curving palms, and creeping sea grapes. In the foreground, a number of bright red ferns and be seen choking out the green plants beneath them. In the distance, some kind of artificial buildings can be seen through mist.

Soon I will get off work.

I've heard good things about the performance so I've got Horizon Forbidden West pre-installing!

Feels like I’ve been waiting forever to play this! 😄

Just under 3 hours until the release of Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition on PC.

I can't wait for this game to release as this is where my time will be spent for the next few days if not weeks.

Will anyone else be playing this on PC by chance?

I can't wait for March 21st to get here as that's when Horizon Forbidden West will finally be available on PC.

I'll be playing this game non-stop and will for sure be completing it from beginning to end!
