@RogerRoger Yes, you remember my DLC contention well. Burning Shores does seem more in line with my expansion philosophy, and just a step away from the ‘expandalone’ games that Sony puts out like Miles Morales, First Light, etc. which I really like.
It reminds me that I still need to try the Iki Island content for GoT. If there was one defense that I’d concede to the quick release, pre-planned DLC it would be that when too much time passes from finishing the base game, it’s harder to go back to extra content the further from the original you get. Fortunately for me, I’ll be able to play Burning Shores in close proximity if I am feelin’ it upon concluding HFW.
@RogerRoger Any patches for Forbidden West while you were doing NG+ were for Burning Shores as far as I know, but obviously they would be applied to Forbidden West since it's just DLC that was added on to the main game file.
Your description of the kiss scene does make it better to an extent since it's not like it was both kissing eachother, but I'll still stand by my opinion that it all feels rushed and forced. Obviously not everybody has to agree with that given we all can interpret things differently, and I do agree that it was nice that they at least gave the option. I'm guessing they had an idea of how controversial it was going to be. It will be interesting to see what they do story wise with 3 in regards to that relationship.
It would take quite a bit of effort on Guerrilla's part in order to make me truly dislike mainline Horizon content (not counting Call of the Mountain as I'm not spending over $500 for one game), which is why I said I was still happy to be back playing as Aloy in the world of Horizon. There is also nothing wrong with liking it even better
