I dunno what it was about horizon 2 but I didn't even finish it. I really liked the first and liked the second as well, but something about it lost me

It has a boring gameplay loop and characters, in my opinion. I also adored the first, but the second really bored me. Got it day 1, most beautiful game ever, but after 10-15 hrs I was just hiding from combat and clickling through converstations, just pushing to finish the story. I’m not even going to pick up the DLC.

I haven't finished a 1st party game on PS5 yet. Started and bounced off Forbidden West, GoW Ragnarok, and Ghost of Sushima.

Watched my partner play through Ratchet, that was the reason we bought the console but I just can't be arsed to play through any of the other games.

It's wild after platinuming both Zero Dawn and GoW on PS4. There's just something... boring about the gameplay loop that I bounced right off of.

God of war 2 is another one. The first one was a masterpiece, the second decided to rush and cram 2 games worth of story into the sequel just to get the Nordic gods over with

That's cool and all, and I'm a huge fan of LEGO games and Horizon, but, eh?
