Finally. The first one, I waited and waited for it to get PC port before I played it. When Forbidden West came out, I traded a smart watch for a ps4 pro, got FW from Gamefly, finished the game, and then immediately resold the ps4. Been waiting for it to come to PC so I can finally buy it on Steam.

Oooh, I can not wait! I’ve been waiting for both Horizon and the new God of War to make its way to PC.

GoT and TLoU2 are the last games I’m waiting for on PC before I sell my PS4

Same. I’m not buying a PS5, but I really love the Horizon series.

Same bro. Just completed the first gow a couple days ago. Ready for the second one now. Will definitely be picking up the new gow and horizon forbidden West!

Same here. I bought a PS4 late in its lifecycle to catch up and then was amazed when they started bringing stuff to PC. I’ve really been missing out on some PS5 titles but I’d be much happier to play them on PC. I think I’ll probably be waiting a while for Spider-Man 2 as well.

I wonder if it will show up on GOG too.

Of course it would be. Just like the first game. It’s free money with minimal effort. It was always going to go to PC.

Porting to PC isn’t minimal effort. It takes a lot of dev time to optimize and make it run well on the wide variety of PC hardware, not to mention the additional PC specific technologies like DLSS that often get implemented. First game had quite a few performance issues at launch that were ironed out over the span of several months.

It still runs like garbage on my 13700K and 3060Ti, depending on the area. Sometimes, High settings are fine, but way too often I have to drop down to “Original” to get somewhat acceptable FPS (>40) at 1440p with Balanced DLSS. Am I doing something wrong, or was it just even worse at launch?

I’ve been playing the first one on my Steam Deck so this is good timing.

How does that thing run?

Zero Dawn on the Deck is damn near perfect.

Yeah, it’s wonderful. I was playing it for nearly 2 hours straight on a flight recently. If you adjust the CPU clock speed and a couple other things, you can squeeze some solid play time out of the Deck with Zero Dawn. It runs amazingly smooth.

Good to hear. I’ve already finished ZD on the PS4 but it’s nice to know the Deck can handle that sort of thing.

Valve’s doesn’t help with it’s ‘Verified’ status. I picked up Dead Space because it’s verified. Within an hour I’d hit the refund button. It ran. It ran at 20fps and looked like absolute ass, but it ran. Not sure that’s what they should be pushing people towards however.

It’s a lot worse than the first 😑

It’s great game, loved playing it.

Only down part of the game is story.

What I mean is it isn’t a bad story, but in comparison to h:zd that had the slow plot reveal that made me go: what? What?! And want to eagerly know more about the story.

But gameplay is great and the skills you can unlock makes it very fun to play.

RIP Lance Reddick, him voicing Sylens is so great. I really hope they have enough recorded material for the next game.

Holy shit, I had no idea Lance Reddick died.

I enjoyed the story of HFW, I just dislike how empty the base felt after the end of the story in HFW.

Yeah it’s sad. They added a memorial in the burning shores dlc that you can visit.

The base is at its best when your allies are there. I always love the random conversations between them.

For me it does give the feeling how important the reason is why they’re not there.

Not too surprising, everyone knew this was coming but it’s still good news.

Really enjoyed this on PS5, but can’t wait to sink my teeth into it on PC with KB&M aiming. Same as the first game, I really enjoyed it again on PC.

Play it on PC with a PS5 or Xbox controller. That’s what I did.
