Hell I hope not lol but theres probably a lot of great loot down there and stuff to prolongue how long you can breath,I think theres even something that lets you breath underwater,cant wait to get that.

Those sidequest scenes are incredible,no more just a single face with barely any motion while you talk to the NPC...Witcher had those also but its even better here...got my butt kicked in the early mmmm
Embassy fight,was not prepared for that lol

EDIT: Just saw Dried's response,well damn,oh well ;)

The semi boss fights against some machines so far have been pretty epic feeling. I'm about 12-13 hours in now and loving it. Definitely feels like a sequel and more polished version of HZD.

I'm out now but can't wait to get to it later today.

Any idea where the opening of the game takes place? I figured it was the west already but that's not the case it seems. Found a log in the Daunt to give a specific location for that area at least.
 
I hate killing the animals, especially the foxes, the sound they make bums me out lol.

It's not that west yet. From my understanding, the prologue area is only a bit west from where the first HZD map ended since they do return to Meridian afterwards although Aloy says it's a journey to get back.

I'm like 15 hours in now about and still feel like I am only about halfway done the main game storyline. That's not including a lot of the side quests I just skipped and saved up for now since I'm focusing mainly on main quests.

Then when I'm done the story, I will start doing the completionist things for that platinum.

If you guys are playing on a 4k tv, do yourselves a favour and switch it to resolution mode during cutscenes, blows my mind every time still. Reaching CGI level graphics.
 
Enjoying it so far. I am only very early in the game (just under an hour). At the part where you are required to stealth a machine in co-op (just finished that part).

Early likes:
  • Focus seems improved
  • Extra inventory beyond your carry capacity acquired is saved
  • Facial animation is much improved on Aloy
  • Climbing is improved
  • In settings, the accessibility options are expansive
  • Game looks real good, just like HZD looked real good
  • Great picking up right where the game left off (assuming you watched the HZD credits to the end)
Early dislikes:
  • Craft tables. I liked that we could craft on the fly in HZD. I don't want to look for a crafting table.
  • Performance is meh in resolution mode, which is the mode I am playing in
  • Still a cartoony color palette , like Uncharted 4
  • Moved some HUD elements (such as notifications of what you picked up to the other side of the screen). You now have to scroll through what you picked up to see what it was that you picked up if you don't have the image memorized. HZD showed the item descriptions, item image and quantity picked up as text in a list on the right of the HUD. I can see this was done for the sake of cleaning up the HUD, but I preferred the way HZD did it.
 
The game looks so amazing. I want to buy it. But I still haven't beaten the first one. Or Witcher 3, or Breath of the Wild, or Skyrim ....etc..

GG are aware of the poor IQ of performance mode, sounds like they will be doing something about it. May just hold out until a patch drops.

I mean, look at the difference: res on top, perf on bottom

It's the checkerboard 1800p.

In movement, it's not too bad but in slower moving scenes like cutscenes, resolution mode makes a difference.

Way too much texture pop-in from those vids considering how slowly they are moving.

I am seeing in my play, but I was used it seeing it in HZD (which I just finished last week) so I am not bothered by it anymore.
 
I was prompted for an update this morning. Installed it and kept playing. Not sure what it does, but just an FYI.
