I sat though the whole end credits when Aloy was flying over the entire game map just hoping she would land somewhere cool and one last cutscene would play. Unfortunately that didn’t happen, but it was still beautiful to watch.

I was so sad when I returned to the base and all my friends were gone, save for Beta and Gaia. Luckily I was able to do a sidequest with Alva after that. I think I just have one more quest with Zo to wrap up as well. I’ll do these before I go to Butning Shores. I’m excited to spend more time with Selens (I hope). I missed seeing him throughout the campaign. He was just in the beginning and the end really. He’s waiting for me at Tilda’s to start the quest. He can wait a little longer.

Prior to the last mission I didn’t want to kill Regalla and would rather she join the final battle. But I really wanted her bow (I looked up the outcomes of the decisions). So in my head cannon, she dies on the battlefield in some form of redemption AND I still get her sick bow.

As for Nemesis…what the actual fuck. Aloy can’t catch a break. Horizon 3 can’t come soon enough. I really really hope it finally has coop. Beta can learn to be like Aloy right? I really thought Varl was going to be set up to be your coop companion in Horizon 3.

When I beat Burning Shores I’m going to have to go back and finally finish Frozen Wilds. Or maybe I’ll do Frozen Wilds first. Haven’t decided yet. For now I’m basking in it all.
