    I bought the original on Steam sale about a year ago. Played 2-3 hours. Didn’t really feel hooked by the story or the gameplay. Graphics looked great to me on the SteamDeck.

      Same. I’ve heard others have the same complaint, but there is a point in the story where it clicks and you’re like “ooookaayyyy, I get it now,” and it makes you want to play more.

      It doesn’t really help Aloy and the side characters from still feeling almost entirely wooden though.

        After the tutorial area the game opens up and becomes really great. A bit like with The Last of Us which had some really bad first hours.

      I couldn’t get past the open world formula that Ubisoft is infamous for. Just put me off completely once I saw the world map with all the ? markers
