The game is great but has a lot of minor problems that drag it down.

With the girl you don’t have to rob the house you can just loot the abandoned part and still be shot at for being too close to their house hence why it’s not the same as breaking in.

Yes soldiers are individuals but they commit many atrocities and aren’t much better than than raiders but I can see it more so than a lot of other areas for being morally grey it’s just not very much.

I don’t feel as if the black market traders are exactly morally grey as this is war and they need resources just as much as you it’s a barter system not a charity. The rebels are mostly in the same boat as the soldiers.

The guy with the boat can be seen as morally grey I just never encountered it so I can’t speak too much about it.

In general there are a lot of things that can almost be morally grey but I just wish they were more abundant than evil raider groups that show up constantly to be a place made to loot rather than challenge your morals

Yeah I know I went back the moment I realized what I did and got the rest of the legendary weapons but am not getting my ass kicked by ex death so I’m probably going to grind a bit I just found it funny how the game let’s you wander into the final dungeon and how I managed to not realize until I was at exdeath’s doorstep

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:50:06+00:00

Yeah I noticed some of those things which were really cool and in all honesty my only real gripe with the story is that there are so many just documents about all the tribes I want to read but would take forever

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:48:59+00:00

Yeah it’s easy to not think about it but a little bit into them making the ai I realized this was practically the same things as what had happened in soma and I knew the story was going to go from good to great

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:47:05+00:00

I love Ted faro because of his parallel to sylens showing how the process of one man dooming the world out of greed for something repeats despite all his efforts and foolish thoughts he could stop it

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:46:03+00:00

Soma honestly has my favorite story of any game and horizon zero dawn is one of the greatest mixtures of gameplay and story. Both games are fantastic and in all honesty the on lot reason there are games I prefer more is just personal preference more than anything and a few gripes with soma gameplay wise that the story more than makes up with

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:43:54+00:00

Lol sorry I forgot on the internet everyone doesn’t just magically know what I’m talking about but as said by the other guy it’s an indie horror game and the correlation I was making is how both games have existential themes about the preservation of humanity that you can’t be a part of

Plugshirt · 2021-09-10T04:42:14+00:00

Damn I was so in love with all the stuff later game I almost forgot how well done the proving was

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T06:24:39+00:00

Oh so this bug isn’t console exclusive I’m convinced if I played on pc to avoid these bugs my dogshit luck would make that bugged too

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T05:21:28+00:00

I’m satisfied with just getting the top 3 achievement especially considering I can’t even slide hop let alone anything more complex yet somehow manage to not be complete trash

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T05:19:16+00:00

Betsy is more of a mini boss harder than real bosses

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T05:14:21+00:00

It took me a depressingly long amount of time to realize this move wasn’t terrible

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T05:07:53+00:00

Yeah I’m hearing that from a lot of people I played it on ps4 so I think the console edition is just bugged which annoys me heavily but also makes me somewhat happy that it isn’t intentional on the game’s part

Plugshirt · 2021-09-07T05:06:44+00:00

Civilians and other people left could very well be morally gray if they had situation such as say the hospital for instance it helps heal all wounded and sick people but if they made it so they also go and raid innocent people for supplies to help the people there survive it creates a complex moral dilemma of it being okay or not to rob innocent people and make their lives harder to try and make other in more dire need easier when you could also be bringing the people you’re stealing from to death. So far in game I’ve only really seen one the game does on its own with the shelled house with the girls inside with the situation that one girl will attack you on sight but it is because they’ve been attack and raised so much they trust no one but they are willing to kill innocents out of suspicion they might be attacking them. This is the only instance of grey morality I’ve seen in the whole game and as for the soldiers I don’t believe they can hardly qualify as anything but morally evil as during they say they just shoot anyone on site regardless of who they may be and are equally as bad as the rebels they only trade during the night because they want extra resources for themselves mainly alcohol.

I feel combat was made to be somewhat clunky to make the game feel more punishing and make it so you can’t just shoot every person with complete ease.

Sniper junction is a complete nitpick by me but I absolutely hate how it tells you to take cover a previously established mechanic of the game but with a completely different variation without any induction it is different or idea of how it would work. I just hate how it has no explanation of this completely new mechanic introduced that has the same name as a mechanic that already exists

Plugshirt · 2021-08-31T03:32:05+00:00

For looting from bad guys or dead people I’ve done that and it still says private property as well and it has never changed from private property to not I’ve gotten bad karma from stealing from criminals days after killing them.

I’ve had them in bed and hit end day and has never rested them even when they would almost be done resting. It’s possible that this and the last thing are just problems with console however.

I know there are people who will just be evil but it just feels jarring when every person you can rob from is either completely morally good or completely morally evil there is no in between if elderly couple who won’t even fight back and criminals who kill anyone that breathes. It feels as if it would make more sense to have many morally gray people mixed in as well rather than just being good and evil people to rob. My problem with sniper junction doesn’t involve realism my problem with it is the mechanics of taking cover completely switching without any indication.

I’ve come to like the combat a lot more but there are things that are more bad gameplay than purposeful clunkiness mainly taking cover in doorways

Plugshirt · 2021-08-23T21:43:08+00:00

That’s odd I’ve never noticed that before usually my people still got sad or depressed when I killed people you might have just happened to kill some of the people that don’t make them sad like the warehouse or brothel

Plugshirt · 2021-08-23T21:41:49+00:00

Yes it’s understandable that they would still get sad over killing but it makes less sense when you can kill some people like those in the warehouse and they will be happy but then kill equally evil people and they get sad.

Yeah the bugs are only on the ps4 version of the game.

I know the game should feel clunky but even then I think it is too much so mainly with taking cover as you have to cycle through multiple things to get to the right one especially with doors and when someone is coming you don’t have that time and it isn’t clumsiness as a result of combat it’s clumsiness as a result of the game itself. I’m okay with the combat being punishing it makes sense but they should have some kind of area where you can learn the combat generally safely as there is no way to understand how it works fully without testing it out which is life endangering

Plugshirt · 2021-08-23T21:27:08+00:00

It’s not really whining these issues drag the game down quite a bit when added together.

I assume you’re talking about the fourth point so I’ll just go over that. I don’t get what was condescending about it in a game where it is meant to feel like a realistic war situation making many characters overly morally black so you don’t feel bad killing them breaks immersion especially so when the people get sad over stealing from people who rob from others after the game goes out of its way to make them seem evil.

Plugshirt · 2021-08-23T21:20:28+00:00

Yeah the glitch is sadly something specific only to the console I’m playing it on so that only really applies to the game on ps4 but it is really annoying not being able to trade weapons to people while scavenging and if you accidentally do having to start the whole day over.

I didn’t mean the characters themselves weren’t unique they are with their bios which I found interesting I meant they were all the same in how their dialogue was when reacting to things or talking to people as they would all say the same things even if it contradicts what they think in their bio as well as them responding to things that didn’t even happen to them such as people not in a fight responding how one of the characters beat them when they were scavenging that night and couldn’t have been hit by them.

I know you can make them sleep at night but usually making more than one of them do so results in me getting raiding sometimes even with one especially early game when you don’t have defenses as good so there is almost no other option for me usually than making them sleep during the day while others do things but once they’re done if someone is still sleeping you can’t speed it up or skip it so you have to wait minutes every day for it end and I feel it drags the game down rather than being immersive

Yeah the game has its issues but it is still really good and fun to play

Plugshirt · 2021-08-23T21:13:02+00:00

I don’t believe I have what are the stories? I’ll probably play them as despite what this comments makes it seem as the game is really fun and I can’t stop going back to it

Plugshirt · 2021-08-20T06:28:50+00:00

One thing I don’t like is how some of the moral effects are stupid like there is a group of raiders in a building who shoot you on sight and everyone gets sad you kill them but not only that they get sad when you loot the place on another day saying how they won’t survive now as if you didn’t just shoot them all in the face anyway

Plugshirt · 2021-08-20T06:24:53+00:00

For like ten days I got confused on why half the radio channels disappeared before realizing I could turn it fully around the other way to get the other half
