    I played the game at launch, so I don't remember all of the details, but as far as I recall, Kotallo gives up on the mechanical arm after testing it at the end of the quest, since wearing it made him feel like who he used to be, not who he currently was. So that's why he doesn't wear it in cutscenes afterwards, it's a conscious choice from him to reject it and instead stay true to what he perceives as his true self rather than some kind of technical oversight on the developers' part.

    • @PS4Pat
      @PS4Pat 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I think they should get an impressionist to do Sylens' voice, just so the voice can remain the same.
      I mean, look at Scar with Be Prepared in Lion King. He was mainly voiced by Jeremy Irons, but Jim Commings had to take over for the last 3rd of the song. And honestly, until I learned that, I had no idea that Scar had 2 different VAs.
      I think they could do the same thing here, have an impressionist fill the role, so the voice can remain the same instead of being different.

      ​@CaptainPilipinas I get where you're coming from, but I also share the OPs sentiment. Considering how many content creators aren't actually trained as writers/critics I suppose it's to be expected, but most 'critiques' aren't actually critical. "This is just bad" isn't productive, or critical. It's an emotional statement. While I know it's anecdotal, I've quit watching most "critiques" unless I know the CC is talking about something they're passionate about. The world needs more additive contributions of any kind, rather than the seemingly much more popular, if not outright ignorant, reductive contributions.

      Because of the gameplay? Or the story?
      Because the Graphics are amazing.
      The acting is Soap-Opera tediousness.
      The dialogue is a never-ending bore.
      The gameplay excels at nothing. It's an eh, ok hybrid, but not great.
      It's decent shooter like action, but pales compared to something like either Halo as shooter or Elden Ring as Souls action.
      As an adventure game it pales compared to new or classic Zelda.
      And speaking as a game, since you're keen to declare it, what about the design of the game, situates it as "the greatest".
      It gives me the impression of having played a limited scope of games.

      @@pathogeneration5138Personally the biggest thing I love about this game is the action, even after playing Elden Ring I think Horizon combat is the best of anything I’ve played. It’s so much more involved to have enemies with specific weak points that offer more benefit to hitting them then just more damage. Also you can have more options at the same time so you can shake it up on the fly. It’s honestly the most fun of any game I’ve played

    Thank you for this wonderful analysis! It's like hearing my own thoughts, but the way you present it, it's just so much better! You are so skilled at explaining every single detail with depth. It's so refreshing hearing a positive and thoughtful analysis. You show a deep understanding around the story and game mecanics that I adore! Points that I liked: 1) the soundtrack is a masterpiece, and I agree, it's perfect for Aloy's development, the sadness but also the hope behind it. 2) the greeting of a old friend when picking up the controller: YES! 3) The overall development of Aloy. How she goes from solo to teamwork was so beautiful. 4) The side quests never feel like a chore, but gives so much extra story! 5) The representation!! 6) Horsey (End) Horizon is the best, and only open world game I have finished. And I play a lot of games. But it's just something about Horizon that's just perfect - and you explain it so well! I can happily tell you something you long for in part VII: I understand! GREAT VIDEO! Thank you

    One thing I REALLY wish they improve for the next game is Alloy's movement, especially in combat. The lack of something more dynamic like parrying, a boosted jump and sprint or a more efficient dodge and shield is the my biggest complain of the series. The hardest machines sometimes feel frustrating to fight because their attacks is mostly to jump over you and sometimes you simply can't do anything and WILL get damage, doesn't matter how many tools, gears, skills and upgrades you have. I don't want her to be invicible, of course, but the game not offering a decent way to avoid attacks is a simplistic mechanic that only engender frustration. That said....this is probably my favorite game series ever. I've just completed Burning Shores (and what a final boss! I've been dreaming for that kind of boss fight in the series) and I've discovered your video and watched the whole thing. Congratulations for such deep and thoughful analysis.

    This game ranks among my top games, and one of the very few on the list in the past 20 years. I very rarely pre-order games but i did for forbidden west and will when the 3rd one comes out. I look forward to the third chapter in the epic tale. I am scared of how they will handle the death of lance reddick. He brought a life to sylans that would be hard to have another actor emulate. but at the same time if they just write the character off i think it would be a disservice to the character growth Lance portrayed for sylans by the end of the second game. If the third game starts and they explain his absence as he left earth to go start a new humanity on some other planet never to be heard from again, I will be extremely sad at the loss of potential and wasted memory.

    The reason why GAIA had to be present at GEMINI was because HEPH was too big to be carried in the GAIA kernel storage device Aloy used for the other subordinate functions, it would not go willingly without a fight and had malicious code that needed to be removed manually. Trying to contain it in a mobile device akin to the one GAIA was in would run the risk of it escaping on transit back to the base as well. In which it would most certainly remove the omega clearance override from its code, as it did with the alpha clearance override. The merge had to be done on site. Which sadly ran the risk of being assaulted by the zeniths. The zeniths meanwhile had access to more advanced technology and could move HEPH without the risk of it breaking containment. I mean HEPH is nothing compared to the size of NEMESIS for example.

    I have to add just for the record that I didn't have any bug on PS5 and when I look at reports....🤫 It was rare on PS5 and those were mostly implemention of available visual improvements and difference between PS4 and 5 is very noticeable but if I played it on PS4 i would be still Amazed how it even runs and I appreciate how it works on PS5 and it is already amazing using older Mesh compiler and old ways for VFX which are now can do in comparison like Dreams on PS5 compared to PS4 , it's great but it's not about raw power but another way of achieving more following EU power consumption Law and use 210 to 280W in the pic of This Gen Hardware, Big publishers asked for best solution for making games Mashine in the name of all major Studios and they got it which you can see on the X exclusives how limited they are in Ambitious Projects but it's about being happy, honestly and I didn't get Messages from other Media sources other than PlayStation.... Detroit Become Human exist because PlayStation supported Development and Game came like it is way ahead it's time and reviews were bad while Game put players in the center of problem that are just beings to happening....it is what it is and like HFW did amazing sequel TLOU also shows how Humans behave in War and because I whiteness 10 years of War of my childhood I had to realize very young that in War there's no Heroes and it's horrifying so Ragnarok came in....War is horrifying and sense of humiliation is unspeakable, it's best I could describe how it looks and what is War and it's like PlayStation is only source that is speaking about us Honestly and there is 150 to 200 millions of us who were faced with some difficult topics but also information about the future...we think it's all the PlayStation Universe but he can't even know or ask WHO, but he also thinks about it while working hard on his sequel. Just for the record 🪬 Life is Beautiful

    The enemys are good, the new weapon is not. The map is incredible, the story is not.
    The first game was about protecting your home from a threat and at the same time unraveling plots and the scheme of an evil AI hellbent on humanity's destruction well after an apocalyptic event.
    The second one is continuing that journey but this time needing to fight against a bunch of stereotypes and your genetic donors ex lesbian lover who plans to kidnap you because the second clone doesn't have your confidence, oh and they're only back because the AI they fed all their negativity is trying to kill them, so they are being hunted by their collective ego.
    The second one isn't as good story-wise and it really affects the game.
    Not to mention the guy who caused all of this is killed off screen by a random joe.

      First off this games plot is more so about aloy learning to trust people and not look down on them as weak and it won’t be much different from the first game because it’s the second game the “bridge” of a trilogy. Secondly aloy wasn’t kidnapped because of Beta she was kidnapped because she thought that aloy was still Elisabet instead of her own person she wanted another reminder of the past that she had with her, she didn’t want to move forward and the Zenith loosing their home to themselves making their own catastrophe is such a clever way to show us that we often doom ourselves out of our own greed and insecurity. I believe the whole point of the Zenith is to show Aloy what happens to people who aren’t true to themselves and only look out for themselves.

    I am surprised that you didn't mention the shard paywall at the arena, which made it not worth the hassle for me. Don't get me wrong, I loved the game as much as you did, but a few attempts of the easiest challenge with insufficient gear set me back about as much as buying a new weapon, which is why I ended up lowering the difficulty to complete the harder challenges after I finished the game, just for completeness sake. However, the worst part was the challenges with set gear, which forced you to use items you may have avoided because you didn't like them. I managed to complete the whole first set apart from the Slitherfang with set gear, that was just way too annoying. Considering that every attempt basically cost me about 30 minutes' worth of shard collecting, it lost all meaning to me.
    But not to talk all bad about it, I really enjoyed the gameplay loop, the story and all the side content, so much even that I even went for 100% completion of both the main game and the DLC.

    ReGloss almost didn't make it to a year - both Ao (the blue lady) and Raden(the black and white haired one) thought heavily about graduating. Raden because of imposter syndrome and some very gross comments about her content, which leans heaviky in education and zatsuing. Raden is an apprentice rakugoka and ex-art curator and teacher. She also admits to being addicted to gambling, was a smoker, and is a drinker.
    Ao kun is a Johnny Bravo type, and her actor is apparently legitmately handsome, and some fans don't appreciate that a lot of the girls are drawn to her in real life. She got Marine flustered and Sora would kind of tease her a bunch during 5th fes and after. Ao said she and Suisei spoke a lot and that helped get her through the tough spots, and she passed that on to Raden who was also convinced to stay.
    Raden is a unique vtuber streamer and is an amazing storyteller and if she graduated hololive would have lost a streamer who may help start a new trend.
    Ao is a ball of sunshine that, despite her girlfailure ikemen bit is seemingly so sweet and tries her hardest to spread that to everyone - outside of Ririka who is decently fluent in English, she's willing to collab with the English talents as much as they want even with the language barrier.
    Oh, and Kanade is legitimately a cracked singer, Banchou is one of the absolute best dancers in Holo, as well as a great singer in her own. Ririka is a capable leader despite her weirdly incompetent persona on stream.
    I want ReGloss to succeed if only to prove that these women belong in Holo and hopefully beyond as a legitimate pop group.

    And the skill and the combat they have done some extraordinary work on the sequel but i do’t like the story of forbidden west as zero dawn did
    Hope they continue to improve on their work

      @@thesewinggeekmiri9029 Mind you asking? Haha I would love to elaborate. So the kind of math you cover uptil like calc is very rote formulaic. Once you get into proof-based mathematics does the real kind of mathematics begins. Here you are more interested into seeing the *how* of maths rather than *what* of the maths. A very simple example would be to prove that the derivative of e^x is e^x using the limit definition of derivative. A bit more honest example would be, "Show that an increasing function is differentiable almost everywhere". A true Graduate level example will be something like, "Show that every compact operator is a norm-limit of finite-rank operator" (ofc a little bit mumbo jumbo but this is to underpin that math at higher levels is very less about formulas to the extent my solutions are usually 3 pages of paragraphs in English with little formulas in between).
      The kind of mathematics I am doing is mostly related to fluid mechanics and the Euler equations. These are equations that describe the flow of water and we try to study what kind of properties would the solutions satisfying the equations have: do solutions even exist (there is a million dollar prize to show this for a little bit harder question), are there more than one, are they differentiable, can we approximate them etc etc.
