Horizon Forbidden West - 5 Things We Immediately Fell In Love With

[@PlayStationAccess]

What are you most looking forward to in Horizon Forbidden West? Exploring the gorgeous world? Fighting fearsome machines? Or will you be spending hours in photo mode (like us)?

[@Woupsme]

For once I actually ordered a collector's edition of a game. Mostly looking forward to getting that robot dino statue. Looking forward to playing the game as well!

[@munchichi2461]

Water graphics and new machines

[@munchichi2461]

@@Woupsme me too can’t wait

[@RyderTZ]

Exploring the world! And photo mode.

[@marybdrake1472]

I'm going to say, everything.

[@irisvanderzon5880]

My first thought when I saw the water: Rob is never going to leave the water, HE IS GOING TO LIVE THERE!

[@RARufus]

That was my first thought too. Rob: Ooohhh the water in its glorious, undulating beauty is a sight to behold.

[@hoop6822]

Rob the dolphin and aloy the dolphin

[@Deedric_Kee]

🤣.👍🏽

[@urekmazino6800]

I will as well lol

[@ndld4955]

Yep my thoughts exactly.. If you asked Rob about the game he'll remember it a lot like Subnotica 😏

[@marble_drawer]

What I'm most looking forward to is simply walking around. Horizon Zero Dawn did something unbelievable regarding how breathtakingly stunning the environments are, but another thing it did exceptionally well was how light and natural movement feels. I'm not even talking about climbing, or diving, or the new glider Aloy acquires. I will never get over how realistic she looks when she's running or walking. The fact that she's not always placing her feet in a straight line like a robot but kind of does little side steps, like a real person running, how responsive her movement is to the player moving the thumbsticks, it all feels so good and I don't know any other game that makes something as basic as moving around feel nearly this good. I spent hours in Horizon just walking through forests, running through the desert on foot or squeezing through little gaps in the ruins of Devil's Thirst (I never knew the lack of invisible walls between the dilapidated grilles of the skyscraper's windows could be this exhilarating for the player) and I hope to do even more of that. Thanks to everyone in Guerilla for creating this masterpiece!

[@patrickcampbell45]

Agree 👍

[@withoutthejuice7193]

The movement in Ghost of Tsushima is similar. It’s not just 2 different speeds of walking, Jin actually has a different pace for every movement of the stick

[@jase276]

On that note, she runs super weird. Like, she has the most unpractical form when running, her entire body kinda just flails while leaning forward

[@azuregiant9258]

I love the way when Rob describes graphically breathtaking landscapes he sounds like a man showing us around his beloved garden that he’s spent years perfecting.

[@donaldb87]

Ash: It actually made me feel a bit uncomfortable, cause bodies of open water make me a bit like "ooh". Rob and Dave: So, coming up soon Ash will be playing Subnautica.

[@nekogod]

Would love to see this, my brother has Thalassophobia and watching him try to play was hilarious. He stuck with it though cause I kept telling him how good it was (loved the original, below zero was ok)

[@angmarliche9187]

When I heard Ash talk about the water, my first thought was of Subnautica.

[@kiaranjay5153]

I'm pretty sure she was on the stream when Rob played Subnautica. She spoke about her fear/discomfort of the water then

[@ericrose419]

I knew Rob would lose his mind over the water graphics/physics. Even in the first game they were stunning. This time around they are unbelievable!

[@williamjackson8782]

These kinds of videos do more than any game review. People you like gushing over the things they love in a game you’re interested in. What more do you need?

[@shuragamingyt]

I still remember the first time I discovered the channel was Rob and Dave playing HZD and hunting down a Thunderjaw and a Stormbird. It's almost 5yrs since then. wow :)

[@Deadzonex21]

Floating down with the shieldwing like Yondu "im mary poppins yall" 😂

[@ReginaldVannison7777]

One thing that I feel get slept on the most in Horizon, is the game’s music. I hope HFW will be able to capture that like in the first one.

[@Poisyndart77]

Agree! & the composers as Zero Dawn are doing Forbidden West, so good chance it'll be just as awesome!

[@notoriousbmc1]

I've read a few tweets gushing over how good the music is, in this installment.

[@mikeinfamous8342]

Came for the gushing about Horizon Forbidden West, stayed for the super close up of Rob’s face haha

[@shadowcat1606]

And just this week, fresh in, i finally got my PS5, too. The release of Horizon 2 was thedate i definitely wanted to have one for at the latest. So... perfect timing. And i can't wait to jump back into this world. Additionally, I'll have two weeks time off work at the start of March (not intentionally chosen for the release of Horizon 2, that one's just a happy coincidence), so i already know where i'm gonna go on vacation.

[@notoriousbmc1]

Welcome to the club. Enjoy.

[@labeeqjaffar6236]

Play Astros playroom first

[@lollypip5653]

God i cannot WAIT until Friday!!! I even took a 3-day weekend off work amd informed my family I am not available for anything those days. HZD is one of my 2 favorite games of all time (also Persona 5) and Ive been waiting foe this sequel since playing in 2017 and noticing all the hints. HURRY UP FRIDAY!!!

[@hypello9534]

Lmao i took a week vacation from work, and just stayed at home playing this game and ordering food😂

[@SpookyFairy]

19:35 can we stop for a moment and appreciate the beauty of this game

[@isaiahsejour1641]

Seriously, i was hoping they would put a spinosaurus machine and here it is

[@liger-panzer]

I quit this world, I'm gonna go live with Aloy now and explore everything. Ps I loved your entry Rosie the board game is something I'm totally gonna spend some hours on.

[@hoop6822]

Don’t worry rob, I get the water thing. Even though I couldn’t live further from the sea, here in the midlands. Guess we must both be ocean deprived.

[@bdgilliam7610]

Honestly I think it will be hard not to play in resolution mode after seeing how gorgeous it looks through previews and that's on KZbin videos to boot.

[@imcd6885]

I really like how the characters all have more of a personality in this game. Erend especially feels a lot less like an npc and more like an actual person

[@shixter]

Sigh... poor FriendZoned Erend. I like his character so much

[@hintonus]

I just cannot get over how beautiful every frame of this game looks! Friday needs to hurry up already!

The best part of the glider is its invisibility… you can see its shape but it doesn’t hinder your view of the landscape! Brilliant!

[@mrfrye18]

Rob was so predictable 🤣 I don't blame him though, the water looks incredible! 😍

[@WakeUpToReality...]

If the water in this game triggers your Thalassophobia then never play Shadow of Colossus. It kinda gave me slight anxiety of large open spaces lol

[@SuperbowlJoel]

The foliage looks incredible.

[@bradreed4414]

Best thing? There’s a trophy that if you get it by a certain date, don’t will plant a tree for each one

[@Deedric_Kee]

That's cool you can go under water without the diving mask. You just need the diving mask just to stay under. 👏

[@austinturner1960]

18:10 Ash missed the opportunity to say, "Get over here!" Haha.

[@irisvanderzon5880]

The past few days since all the youtube channels released their reviews are so agonizing and friday cannot come fast enough. I keep checking the place where i pre ordered it to see if they’re not sending it a few days early…

[@joeldfisher]

just wait until Rob realises that you can zoom in using Photo Mode

[@shmookins]

16:54 Wow, that lighting looks gorgeous in 4K.

[@danhodson7187]

I'm glad they've not put some kind of stamina bar on the glider so you can glide indefinitely down rather than needing to build up some stamina and only jump from smaller heights. Good move!

[@rockutron9000]

Everything about the game looks incredible.

[@alexjames2264]

Anyone else adding all these Forbidden West videos to their Watch Later?? I wanna watch but it's sooo close haha

[@the-d2506]

Rob's fascination of water physics always gets me hyped up...🤣😂

[@adiibaziz7140]

The machine. HZD in ultra mode, even 3 watcher can kill me if I am not prepared. The people inside the world always scared of the machine and as a player I never felt that fear until ultra mode. The time i need to find the weakness, type of trap and tactics makes hunting the new machine more fun.

[@em1ownerify]

Guerrilla games man. Top developers this gen

[@therattis23]

It always amazes me how a perfect game like "Horizon Forbidden West" can be elevated to 11, 15, and beyond by the enthusiastic words and praise by the PS Access team.

got my time off approved for a 3 day weekend just to experience everything this game has to offer 😩, i’m just READY

[@AboveAverageAndrewJ]

Can’t wait for the gifs of 5:21 lol

[@monkeymenso]

The only bad thing about this game is the mountain climbing. You want to go up and it goes to the side and sometimes Aloy gets stuck in a point when it there are many grabing points around her.

[@SARGE4268]

Amazing video guys! I'm looking forward to giving this a go on Friday! One thing why does Aloy look different in the thumbnail? There is something off with her face

[@sixpin551]

Such a fun video. The bit with 4K Rob at the end gave me a chuckle. Thanks for the coverage. Look forward to you guys playing it later (maybe for a platinum?).

[@mcm426]

I took Friday and Monday off just so I can have more time to dive into this. I'll be playing the second it releases at midnight lol

[@piotrdworowy183]

About "our world" in HZD, I loved that "view" points that showed us the real look of the ruins,I think you all knows what I am talking about.

Seems like great open world games have little board games to play. Witcher 3 has Gwent, Red Dead 2 has poker, and Forbidden West has the Machine Strike Rosie mentioned

[@troygreen3272]

What a great Tuesday checklist, thanks for sharing what you love about HFW. The intricate details used to explain why you love each entry was amazing and hype inducing. The video is awesome. Great writers, editors, voice over, game capture all done exceptionally well. I also love Rosie math and my favorite part of all TCLs....the bloopers and outtakes.

[@JudgeFudge57]

Ubisoft really needs to take notes from this game !

[@GiveMeFive-GMF]

I feel like Rosie doesn't actually like the game. Of all the things to call out in this beautiful game, she picks a board game. That's like going to the Maldives or Hawaii, and just saying, 'you know what I really love about this place...playing backgammon in the hotel lobby'.

[@bdup159]

You know how assains creed orgins had that historical mode where you could just go and learn about the world ? I want that with Horizon. Where we could just learn all the history without all the combat if we wanted and just enjoy the world and the artistry and beauty of it.

Aloy playing Machine Strike Geralt: First time? Horizon Forbidden Gwent 😂

[@giantenemycrab8297]

I can't wait to play this in a couple of days! Horizon zero dawn completely came out of nowhere and took me by surprise. I was like "did the makers of Killzone really make this?" It's such a refreshing thing to see when a studio is given time and resources to make their visions come to life and we receive 100% benefit from their efforts. This new entry looks amazing and really shows the potential of the current Gen gaming space. Great checklist Access team!

[@davidmulcahy8548]

Aloy jumps off a cliff and opens the shield wing. Link in Zelda BOTW........ 'Bruh'
