Happy July! For Americans it’s looking like a 4-day weekend (if you’re taking Monday off that is), and that means lots of time to play games!
Personally, I’m looking forward to hopefully finishing Horizon: Forbidden West. See where I’m at specifically in the spoiler section.
Minor Horizon spoilers
I’ve trapped Hephaestus and am currently in one of the Zenith’s art galleries. I had to stop here mid-mission during my last gaming session, but this looks to be the climax of the story, so I am very excited to see how this unfolds!
After that, I might just dive right into the Burning Shores DLC, or maybe deviate to The Pathless or Tchia, which I picked up on discount recently.
On the family gaming front, my partner and I are just beginning Hogwarts Legacy. Specifically we just got to Hogsmeade for the first time. She’s more of a 2D fan and struggles with the camera in 3rd person games, but she’s determined to play this one as she loves Harry Potter! This one is going to be a really slow burn for us.
How about all of you? What are your plans, and where are you currently in your respective games?
Yeah, it’s time I need to process the story. PS exclusives almost always leave me like this. Like, I couldn’t get into any new game for like 2 months after TLOU2.
That’s why I’m so glad we get banger DLCs like Frozen Wilds, Left Behind and now Iki Island that let me return to those worlds later. I think only Burning Shores was somewhat disappointing. Not because it’s not good, it just doesn’t reach the heights of Frozen Wilds.
TLOU2 hit me so hard! I had to take a similar break. Oh, dont say that about Burning shores, I’m about to start 😭. But I never finished frozen wilds…I might have to go back
Oh, don’t get me wrong. Burning Shores is a solid B+ DLC. It’s just that Frozen Wilds is my favorite ever part of the Horizon franchise!
That’s great! Looks like I’ll be hopping back into frozen wilds at some point!
