Well shit I didn't know that. Glad Guerrilla realized they were weak in the writing department and grabbed talented people to help fix it.

I think for that challenge, i shot off the ravager weapon, then used it to kill to 2 watchers and the challenge completed.

I'm glad I cleaned up everything else before getting on with the main quest, because it's all quite addictive. I was enjoying the contrast between the tribes, but I wasn't particularly interested in the politics of the world until arriving at
. You have my attention, Horizon! There are so many beautifully designed supporting characters, too, it's just ludicrous. I'm thoroughly enjoying Aloy's interactions with
The scale main quest line seems to walk somewhere inbetween the cinematic scale of Uncharted, with the more perilous player interactivity of the Tomb Raider reboot. Probably closer to Tomb Raider. (Horizon and Aloy continues to be everything I wanted from the Tomb Raider reboot, just, you know, a long way into the future plus robots!)
Thank you to the Gaffer who mentioned having duplicate bows with specializations. It was exhausting changing mods, and changing between OP fire bow and OP hardpoint bow at the flick of a button is so goooood.

Lance Reddick, whose character name I keep missing the proper pronunciation of. Aloy is 100% more pissed offf and sarcastic with him, it's great. It's like she replaced Loving Father Figure Rost with Adopted Dick Dad Lance Reddick.

Ya that's one of the trial.
Lol, glinthawks are piss easy. Just hit there breatsplate to expose the coolwater pouch, then hit that with piercing arrows two or three times and it'll blow up on them. Drops them to the ground where they'll either die on impact or need another arrow or two to die.
Honestly, once you figure out the weak points the monsters are easy enough to outmaneuver and damage. Some may be finding fights difficult if they aren't moving, and if they aren't utilising the slowdown on zoom in.

Damn, I am just exploring! I guess I'll leave that for later then. Kinda weird it lets you come to these places actually. They should just have a closed gate or something. I love exploring but if it looks like hidden places that are actually parts of the story later... It feels like timewasting. Anyway, thanks for the answers

Hunting Trials...switch to easy.
You'll get a blazing sun for hem all on the first try.

Was the Shellwalker trial suppose to be stealth? I stealthed to the first cache and looted two boxes and then ran like hell over to the second cache. The Shellwalker picked one box up, but I only needed one more and grabbed it before he could take that one too.

That's the one. Thank you!

yea i don't see how you stealth that trial in 50 seconds.

I find it very enjoyable to let loose a few corruption arrows to a pack of glinthawks and just hang back, picking up herbs and hunting wildlife whilst the fight ensues, only comes back for harvesting their parts once its over.
Also sometimes a convoy came past, so I shot it too. Sweet, sweet purple cargo.

It's funny when you're nearing the end of the story
where Aloy returns to All Mother having learned all this mumbo jumbo about Zero Dawn, and then you can see the look on her face having to deal with her tribe's nonsense again
Once she
has to leave the children's quarters and return to her tribe you could tell she was not at all wanting to deal with their ignorant bull shit when she just had her world turned upside down herself.

she's clearly conflicted. on the one hand, she's learned that their ignorance is not their own fault, but the guy's who purged apollo. on the other hand, they treated her like shit (and some of them still do), so she owes them nothing.

No idea which guide you used, but there is one out there missing one statue. I was in the same situation.

There are grazer dummies in Meridian area that won't count to that trophy.
Make sure you pinned down the ones in snowy area, from Nora region to some parts of Nora-Carja border.

Combovers don't work when there is no hair
Level 37, found all the ancient vessels, gonna finish up the figurines, the metal flowers, the vistas and those last three power cells, and then continue the main story (currently at the
quest).

I need to stop just hammering the main quest line but I can't as I'm finding the story just too compelling, I need to know what happened now. I have my suspicions where the story is going
im getting terminator/matrix vibes especially matrix how humans block out the sun to stop the robots. Sounds like zero dawn is a nuke that is going to be set off with a few humans safe to repopulate the planet

After that pretty much you reach the
final 2 missions / point of no return until the end of game

Didn't find the story all that compelling. I called it from a mile away and is essentially magic disguised as science fiction.
Maybe if I didn't predict it I would have liked it more.

This game is hard as fuck. I'm shooting the weak points but most every machine feels like it takes a bit too long to kill and I'm just running around trying to avoid stuff and get in my shots. idk should I be getting a better bow or better arrows or something
just did the fight with two corrupters my ass got whooped. took me a whole hour or two on that. I know i suck but some help or some confidence would be nice

man I kinda hit that "hmm I think im ready to be done with this" moment, that click in the brain, yesterday when I got to a village for a sidequest and there were 2 more sidequests there, and i bummed me out.
I was very tired/sleep deprived from working graveyard shift the night before tho, and I kinda have Zelda on the brain lately (just like I had Horizon on the brain before buying it which also kinda ruined other games), so im not sure if I was just messed up yesterday from a combination of both, ill see how I feel later today. If I still feel the same, I guess Ill do a bee line for story missions, which ive been negleting for ages now clearing up all the content (im at about 35 hours)

Do you have a ropecaster? If so, use it on one of them. If not, load a previous save and buy one.
Ropecaster ties down a machine for a good 90 seconds (provided you don't attack it). Enough time for you to focus on one when fighting multiple enemies.
Edit: Additionally, I think I know where you're at. Clear the bandits first before engaging the corruptors, it'll make the fight much easier.

There was one I had to hit twice because it didn't fully fall over.
This is the most satisfying melee I've ever played in a game.
The frustrating thing with the tripcaster is the machines always seem to go around my trips. And many times jump OVER it. Need to step farther back I guess.
The moment I realized how useful the ropecaster is...so great. Love what it adds to your strategy and pivoting around the target.

I also can't stop thinking about this game. I just want to do everything but not enough time.
