A continuation of the concepts previously explored in Zero Dawn (which I also enjoyed), this feels like an iterative jump and an improvement upon an already solid baseline. Gameplay is smooth, performance is solid for the visual fidelity and I have run into few glitches or quirks throughout my playthrough. I would recommend this game to anyone who prefers a controller to a keyboard, and enjoys the mental challenge of modifying your attack style depending on the foe you are facing. A great single-player experience that seems to be falling out of favour these days, at least amongst "AAA" developers. No need to worry about microtransactions or gambling masquerading as lootboxes here. I look forward to the next installment of the franchise.

I'm finding more and more often I need a break from the high pace of the games I normally play. This game offered a welcome change of pace, and led me through a story that I thoroughly enjoyed. Worth the purchase if you believe in spending $20 for a (approximately) 2 hour, first person interactive movie. Didn't have the lasting emotional effect that some games have left me with, but I was still thinking about it hours after I finished it, which should at least count for something. Some replay value, but as with most story-based games I find it hard to come back to after you know the ending. Overall a solid 8.5/10.

A game that leaves you with more questions than answers, but it's good that way. Good stories keep the consumer thinking about them long after the story has been read, and this is no different. It leaves room for introspection while still providing a great environment. A great experience throughout, and definitely worth the money invested.
