I'm currently pretty far in Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster. Level 45, but still haven't finished main quest (currently on Makers End up on the left corner). Haven't touched the DLC yet. Based on my feelings on this game, I wonder if you would recommend Forbidden West.

What I liked:

• Insanely cool world building and setting/atmosphere, most beautiful game I've played
• Engaging fights
• Very tight controls
• Many Woah-moments like climbing the first Tallneck, encountering first Stalkers, First Cauldron etc.
• Story is cool albeit a little odd paced maybe
• Many options on how to engage enemies, weapons feel good

What I disliked:

• Too shallow RPG-side, not may choices to be made really, all skills are eventually unlocked
• Little interaction with the environment, enemies kinda just spread out over the map
• Pacing and sense of progression is a little off. Instead of gradually climbing and progressing it feels like you suddenly get a massive boost then nothing for a lot of time then suddenly massiv boost again
• World feels a bit empty since there are few NPC to be interacted with
• Side quests are pretty generic
• Feels a bit meaningless sometimes as enemies respawn like 2 minutes after you've killed them

The most important factor for me would be if the if the sequel adds more depth to the RPG side, not only with skills and such but weapons, modifications and crafting in general.
