Is the setting big enough for an independent game?

Plot Horizon Forbidden West is set in a land on the edge of the kingdom of the Carja, where 'only the sun comes in' and acts as their natural border. It is easy to see that Horizon Forbidden West revolves around the 'sea', which did not appear in the first part. Geographically, the edge of the Forbidden West lies in a mysterious land when the 6th Sun King, Iriv, organized a total of 4 expeditions to this place, shaping it to be Carja territory but in return. is he also disappeared at Forbidden West.

The Carja know very little about what goes on inside the Forbidden West, when most of those who enter this land walk back and forth. In the trailer we can see the appearance of a kind of red algae, which kills creatures and causes them to slowly rot, which could be the main reason why Forbidden West is so dangerous. It can be assumed that this algae has been present in Forbidden West for a long time, but after the events of the Horizon Zero Dawn storyline when Hades was destroyed, it developed in such an uncontrollable way.

I was afraid that Horizon Forbidden West might look like an extension like DLC The Frozen Wilds, where its location revolves around beaches or ocean ruins. Luckily in the trailer we also see Aloy go through areas such as deserts or snowy mountains, which means that the Horizon Forbidden West will last a lot longer than what the Carja knew and also. mysterious things that no one has yet found.

Who will be the main villain?

It is currently unknown who Aloy will be facing or what is in the Horizon Forbidden West plot, if in the previous section, she must prevent Hades from wiping out the world, this time everything will probably revolve around. saving the lives of organisms that are being invaded by red algae. But at Horizon Forbidden West, things are a little different, because after the events in Part 1, the world is no longer being threatened by Hades but people are different.

As we saw in the trailer, there were at least two new tribes, one of which seemed to have found a way to control the beasts and equip them like mounts - ghost-like ones. - sucking at the end of the trailer. If you do not remember, in the plot of Horizon Zero Dawn, the previous Sun King gave the slave sacrifice organization (toss for the carnivorous beasts), so this new tribe may emerge to fight. back to the Carja to take revenge.

Will Aloy finally fight the Metal Devil boss?

Metal Devil are the 'mother' machines that have the role of producing large numbers of Chariot, the so-called Faro Plague is also the cause of the destruction of the modern world, turning the Earth into a place. wild with tons of machine animals we've seen. In the Horizon Zero Dawn storyline , the Metal Devil is mentioned a lot, both in terms of its importance and danger but unfortunately, Aloy never had the opportunity to confront.

There are many reasons but mostly Metal Devil has been destroyed or deactivated for many years, so in theory they can not 'live' again. Moreover, the size of these Metal Devil was so large, such machines would be like a giant centipede the size of a mountain, so Aloy's destruction of it seemed a bit impossible. The thing about the Horizon Forbidden West trailer we saw Aloy running through a Metal Devil near the beach, so it is likely that this super beast will wake up for the first time and give players a boss battle. coated.

What is Sylens up to?

The protagonist of the Horizon Forbidden West storyline will certainly be Sylens, the mysterious engineer who helped liberate Hades and indirectly cause the disaster that almost destroyed the world. At the end of part one we see Sylens capturing Hades and on his way to somewhere, this time he appears in Forbidden West while commanding the indigenous peoples to capture the beasts. It seems that Sylens passed on their knowledge to infect the beasts, as Hades used to control them.

Sylens is a very mysterious character, he does not belong to any faction but only works for his own benefit. Sylens has a great obsession with knowledge from the old times, so is willing to do anything to achieve his goals. Another thing is that Hades is still living with Sylens, so by putting in the right environment, he can restart the world destruction project like part one. It is unclear what the purpose of Sylens through the Horizon Forbidden West trailer is, but whatever the reason, such a person with great knowledge and acts of monstrosity is very troublesome.

What types of animals appear in Horizon Forbidden West?

As usual, all new games will introduce new types of machine animals, in Horizon Forbidden West we can notice that they are more 'sea' style. The strange thing is that the beasts in Horizon Forbidden West do not seem as aggressive as the brothers in the first part, especially the mechanical turtle that Aloy encountered in the trailer, if you notice it you will see that it plays very very a lot of moss on the shell, a sign of inactivity for a long time. This is quite strange because most of the animal beasts went crazy after the Red Hunt event, it is unreasonable for them to lie dormant.

It could be assumed that the Forbidden West had a separate network of information, so when Hades loaded the malware into the system it did not reach it, which also explains why Sylens had to use the Earthbending. People to infect them again from the beginning. In addition, the illusion of a dragon under the ruins may also be a new species of machine animal, showing that there is a large ancient civilization in Forbidden West with advanced technologies still operating today. Eventually we may see a great battle between the beasts, when at the end of the trailer the giant elephants are equipped just like the Mumakil gang in LOTR.
