I love this game, but the click bait is unnecessary. Also, Elden Ring was game of the year. Sorry not sorry to burst your bubble.

[@99rick66]

@@GanjaScotty Then why are you here other than to just troll?

[@aaaarg7053]

One thing with Frozen Wilds which relates to the closing comments, is that before launch GG said that skill points from ghost levels would not carry over into the expansion, but then when Frozen Wilds launched, they did carry over, and so those of us with a number of skill points racked up were able to instantly fill out that expansion's traveller tree. So, it will be interesting to see how things go this time around.

[@ArktixOfficial]

Yes great point! I’ve been thinking about ghost levels as well. Particularly in regard to a new max level (non-ghost). With Frozen Wilds we got 10 more levels to max out at 60 and it increased Aloy’s max health. It will be interesting to see how they handle that this time.

[@aaaarg7053]

@@ArktixOfficial Yeah I'd assume the level cap (50) before ghost levels kick in will go up to 60 again, although it really wouldn't need to. We don't need another 100HP. But if they do, they should probably also add a special new NG+ only difficulty where everything is rebalanced to be max-level-appropriate, & quest-machines don't have reduced HP. An apex Slaughterspine might only have its health raised to 300% & damage to 250% (compared to UH's 294% & 200%), but a burrower could have it's health raised to 900% & damage to 360%.

[@ArktixOfficial]

Yeah I’m interested to see how they handle balancing new weapons, skills, increased health, etc, with the original machines. I’m a bit worried that they’ll feel too easy after the DLC.

[@dfchang813]

I hope so. I’m ghost level 220 I think and have 1200 skill points. Would be side of those came to nothing. 😅

Hey thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video and are enjoying the game 😁

[@actualmortgage7122]

God I would absolutely love to see the ability to use the shield wing as a shield and/or have a parry mechanic. Parry mechanic pretty much always is a great mechanic to have in any game with combat, it is so satisfying-especially with a two-tiered reward from parry vs. perfect parry. Parry would make sense with Aloy being nimble and not only would it be fantastic in DLC areas but it would be a huge boon to combat throughout the game as a whole. The improvement in melee combat from Zero Dawn to Forbidden West was fantastic, and making a more nuanced melee system with parrying would bring it to exactly where it needs to be.

[@ArktixOfficial]

Totally! Yeah I couldn’t agree more. I think it would really add a new dimension of combat to the game.

[@daanduijkers4845]

Personally, here's everything I hope to get from BURNING SHORES: 1. MORE FOCUS ON FOOD Introduce new meals that give an entire Skill Tree worth of bonuses! Let's be honest, we all use the "Nora Thunder Warrior" cause it has the best perks. Well, this way you can make use of them even whilst using other armor. It also lends itself to HORIZON's element for preparing before fights. 2. BUFF FIRE & PLASMA These two are easily the weakest elements and should be given major buffs! For Plasma, just increase the maximum damage it can deal or add some sort of extra effect. As for fire, maybe allow the status to last longer by continuing to hit it with the element. 3. BUFF TRAPS The trapper playstyle has been massively nerfed in FORBIDDEN WEST. In ZERO DAWN, you could just pass through traps without taking damage. BRING THAT MECHANIC BACK! Maybe through an armor skill? Also, make it so traps do not immediately explode after just one hit by an enemy! 4. BUFF POTIONS While health potions have been buffed in FORBIDDEN WEST, the new Cleansing and Stamina potions still feel undercooked! For Cleansing, just double the time that it gives elemental resistance. As for Stamina, maybe have it also restore some Valor, since grinding to fill that meter back up is a pain! In fact, allow us to turn off Valor after we're done using it!

[@ArktixOfficial]

Nice list! I’d like to see a lot of those changes as well.

[@roominkpaper1945]

Thank you for your videos, i am currently finishing HZD and your videos really helped. Since i have sitting HFW sitting on my shelf a couple of weeks now, i also started to watch your videos on HFW. They really have me looking forword to play this game, but i am also a bit intimidated by them, i got the feeling that you can't casually play this game, that you need to optimize your gameplay, max out every weapon and use every trick like slide dodging, concentration jumps and so on to be succesfull. I hope that it turns out to be as fun and rewarding as HZD, more machines, more weapons, more skills, hopefully thats not to much. I really hope that its playable without optimizing every bit. Nevertheless looking forward to it and will definitely rewatch a couple of your videos for help. Keep up with your great content!

[@ArktixOfficial]

Hey thanks a lot! Glad you found my HZD videos helpful 😁 Don’t worry about optioning every little thing in HFW if you’re playing on a regular difficulty level. You certainly don’t need to, though optimizing will help of course. That being said, HFW is harder than HZD, so you will want to make use of weapon techniques for sure and upgrade your gear.

I don't know how much you've played Zero Dawn. But one thing that I really want to see is Guerrilla bringing all the new upgrades to all the rest of the game even outside the area of the Burning Shores. And the reason why I meantioned Zero Dawn is because when we got the Frozen Wilds, it was blatantly clear the Aloy's arms were way jacked up in comparison to what it was when we played the main game, specially when using the Nora Silent Master suit. So I think that IF we really end up getting an under water combat option I hope that can be utilized in all the other areas of the game as well.

[@ArktixOfficial]

Definitely! Yeah I hope we see some changes/improvements to the original map area too.

[@jaexyn]

With all the mention of playing on Ultra Hard difficulty, if anyone is wondering, the only thing you get out doing so (other than self-fulfilling sense of accomplishment) is a trophy. If you're a completionist, it'll already be on your list. Otherwise, all you get is more struggle, lol.

[@zacharyshannon9007]

I've been leveling up since my first playthrough in NG+. Since I finished the main story, I've been biding my time for any DLC expansion in the future, hence Burning Shores. All I can do now is wait. Speaking of DLC, not to get ahead of myself, I am curious if Guerilla will develop few more DLC areas taking place during and after the Main story. Up north, I saw some kind of fortress in the mountains north of No Man's Land and it might have something to do with the Oseram. After clearing out the first Rebel camp, it later became an Oseram settlement now newly named "Hollowrock". We'll all have to keep Elisium in mind though. I was hoping for the Base itself to be expanded with few levels and rooms aside from the repair bey. There has to be more accessible areas we can explore I mean Regional operatives might have other work spaces, perhaps a kitchen, another social space and more living quarters below 'cause that elevator is there for a reason. I hope guerilla will add some more content. As for allies, We all know we'll no doubt encounter with Brin and Gildon again in the Burning Shores but I hope we could gain more new allies to join Aloy's team at The Base. For example; Aratak and Inatut from the Frozen Wilds expansion joined the final battle for the "Looming Shadow" mission. Perhaps we could also see other allies from the Frozen Wilds like the werak trio Urkai, Tatai and Tulemak.

[@japkap]

Did a story difficulty new game plus just so i could have fun taking my time in burning shores, and just for practice made another save and doing a ultra hard at the moment just to keep my "skills" up to date, noticed some new form of rope cast to get to enemies and do a critical melee attack, will be interesting to see what new skills they add, and if we can somehow use all our champion tokens on maybe resources at some vendor, or skill point buffs with all the extra levels we reach hit ghost level 107 i believe now so would be nice to be able to spend those.

Since the game keeps track of how many times you fought the different types of machines and adjust the probability of encountering the Apex variants accordingly, by the end of my 2nd New Game+ on Ultra Hard, I was rarely seeing non-Apex machines.

Haven't played in while started a new, new game plus recently just to get reacquainted.

Hope you’re having fun diving back in!

The more I look at the image the more I'm inclined to believe that's a new enemy. Aloy is in a fighting stance and so is the other person. If they were an ally then Aloy would be looking back at the Horus instead of standing up on the mount. Also I know a Horus is huge but it dwarfing the Hollywood sign just makes that even more clear. Aerial combat has to be in the dlc because there's no possible way to fight one of those from the ground. The one we go under in the main story to find hades made aloy look like an ant by comparison. This one looks to be even bigger

[@flushmaster248]

Just bought this DLC, wondering if I can possibly get the pre order stuff in game at all?

[@jamesoaks1120]

0:21 those are not exclusive to just the pre-order, you can get those pre-order items at the first settlement aloy comes to in the DLC, its already been confirmed, the pre-orderbonus just allows you to get the dye and bow early

[@ArktixOfficial]

Hmm I'm not sure about that. I interpreted the PlayStation blog post as you would only be able to buy them in the first settlement if you had pre-ordered.

[@lolligeduck]

6:45 you can also get the elite ropecaster at the hunter vender west from the base

[@ArktixOfficial]

Yes thank you! It does show up there later on.

Hey thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 😄

I will be playing Burning Shores on my 100% pre new game plus save.

Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸, I love your videos on the western forbidden horizon, very well explained, but I want to ask you. Why doesn't the enemy's health bar appear in ultra hard mode?

[@paristeta5483]

Design choice by the developer.

[@diwuax]

@@paristeta5483 ok thanks, so in ultra hard mode it already comes like this by default

[@christopherarocha92]

Damn I want this game on pc. Looks great

[@ArktixOfficial]

Totally! Yeah I can’t wait for it to come to PC.

[@benavid1]

Good video! I’m so torn between trying to do the infinite resource glitch or not. I’m such a purist snob, but I’m so poor on volatile sludge lol

[@ArktixOfficial]

Thanks Antonio! And thanks again for sharing that tip on the valor surge on stream 😄 Farming apex spikesnouts does work really well for farming volatile sludge. Just don’t explode the sacs.

[@jeremyhodge9029]

This DLC is gonna be awesome because from what I'm seeing they're supposed to bring Horace in. I've been playing often on the past couple of months just to make sure I still keep my s*** quick.

[@mysterious___1]

The Horace has been known for 2 months

[@averageman579]

I am debating if I need to start another NG+ because my current NG+ is on ultra hard and that was rough when I found out I didn't stock enough of the damned fireclaw sacs...

[@ghostplayer3357]

Thought I let you now that the infinite jump glitch the aiming glitch is easier because you can just keep aim and go up the wall

[@spiritravelermdk8508]

Maybe a Stormbird will rideable

[@alexanderruoff5208]

I like ur content but did u realy recommend to use an exploide??

[@ArktixOfficial]

I make people aware of the exploit, I don’t recommend one way or the other. It’s up to you if you want to use it. In a single player game, I don’t feel these things really matter. Though, personally, I would not use it until completing everything legitimately.

[@Jute511]

I wonder what reason they'll use to reset armor/weapons AGAIN in the third game.

[@florentmagere3782]

Yeaaaaaah what a great days to have bought HFW on PS4 and feeling robbed coz we are not allowed to play it AND CONTINUE the adventure of this opus on our consoles...

[@evilguy909]

should I pre order it?

[@bigheartproductions5603]

Going to be watching your gameplay 100% because I have a PS4 😢

[@Hxyqt]

im getting a ps5 tommorow so im really excited for this dlc!

[@anomaly_echelon7994]

Hey @Arktix, do you think it would be a good idea to not get the dlc on the ps5 I have rn if it patches the arena exploit? I think it would be a g00d idea to get a brand new ps5 console to play the DLC and other games since I can now abuse HFW's arena exploit on my existing ps5 anytime I want in the future with different accounts as well.

[@ArktixOfficial]

You could, but buying a second PS5 to keep the Arena exploit active seems pretty extreme. Also, I think if the game on one PS5 is on a different patch from the other, your save progress won’t sync, so your exploit resource farming won’t transfer over to your other PS5. Not sure though.

[@anomaly_echelon7994]

@@ArktixOfficial The Horizon franchise is priceless imo (The only reason I ever got a PS5 in the first place) but it would definitely suck if I can't transfer the exploited resources to a different console with a different version of HFW but ig I'll wait to see if they have patched it in a few days when they release the Burning shores DLC and then decide. Ty for the reply!

[@Adriano.V]

Maybe this is off topic! But does anyone know if there is a way to tell which machines you've scanned in NG+? I'm trying to 100% my NG+ file. But it's literally impossible ti tell what machines I've scanned since the catalog is complete from the previous playthrough 😒
