Game is absolutely gorgeous, Aloy is hot (to me) and likeable, and the gameplay is fun enough, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the first. What kept me invested in Zero Dawn is that it was a well executed Hero's Journey, on top of the mystery box of uncovering what Project Zero Dawn was. The Forbidden West doesn't really have that. Aloy kinda stagnated as a protagonist and wasn't as interesting, and the plot of TFW wasn't as engaging as the first. So I lost interest halfway through and stopped playing. I might pick it up again some day when the 3rd game comes out.
