Walkthrough Horizon Forbidden West - REACH FOR THE STARS
We've been waiting for this for so long! Finally, the gaming community has received a truly iconic and in some sense revolutionary game, which has been so few in recent years!
And we proceed to the full and most detailed passage of the story of the beautiful and strong heroine - Eloy!
Enjoy reading and watching!
After a long cut scene that is gorgeous in its beauty, a long introductory task begins, which introduces beginners to the features of the gameplay, and reminds fans of the first part.
Talk to Varl and collect medicinal plants, marking them with a visor, then follow the marker that will tell you to go down.
Follow the cable down, explaining the specifics of using the visor to Varl along the way, until you reach the remains of the Glinthawk riddled with arrows.
Assemble the ridge wood and make arrows.
Next, knock down the ladder mount and climb up, then continue to explore the ruins of a former civilization.
After descending, Eloy and Varl encounter a car called "Burrower", whose weak/vulnerable places are the head (acoustic chamber) and the cargo compartment on the back.
Sort out the car and follow on, not forgetting to collect resources, and again knock down the ladder mount with a bow shot.
Go upstairs and find the doors to the project complex, then explore the ruins and remains of the destroyed camp.
Collect the details of the device found by Varl and fix the "Pullcaster" on the workbench, with which you can clear the blockage and use it to pull the Eloi to the hook point.
In the next room, use the visor to find the points where Eloy can grab – she is on the right, and go up to the level above, use the "Pullcaster" again and move to the other side along the wall.
Drop the ladder to the Shaft and also use the hook to pull (drop down) the chest on the opposite side.
Watch another cut scene and move on through the ruins of the complex.
Delegate one of the cars to Varl, and eliminate the cars on the right by luring him with a stone or simply coming in from behind, striking with the "R1" button for a silent attack.
Then there will be two more cars at the bottom (at the Normal difficulty level at least) and another one further in the ruins, which can also be silently eliminated.
Move on and inspect another Oseram hunter camp, defusing several traps along the way and learning how to create them with Eloy.
Climb up with the help of a hook and eliminate or bypass the cars called "Scrounger" - the vulnerabilities of the "Cargo compartment" on the back and the fuel cell, also do not forget about the explosive traps just found.
Follow on, exploring the ruins and reading the notes, and watch another cut scene.
Leave the ruins and follow the marker towards the data center.
Next, Eloy and Varl will come across a place where three cars live, while two of them are visible initially, and the third hides around the corner, activating only after Eloy is detected or promoted.
At this stage of the game, even such an opponent as a "Scavenger" is a formidable enemy, so try to do everything without making too much noise, and then climb up.
The way to the data center is blocked by three new "Slitherfang" machines - they are also huge rattlesnakes.
Eloy decides on another adventure and wants to drop nothing more than a space shuttle on them.
On the way to the marked place, pass or destroy the cars, turn on the reset of the shuttle fasteners, but this step will not work completely and Eloy will have to shoot the holding cables manually.
With the help of a "Pullcaster", knock down the elevator and climb up, where you can shoot down the cable fastenings alternately with a bow shot.
How to defeat the Slitherfang
We've been waiting for this, haven't we!? It's time to fight this huge awe-inspiring machine.
Slitherfang is vulnerable to fire and freezing. Its main and accessible weaknesses are:
1. A container with acid - under the muzzle;
2. A bag with an iron-eater - on the belly under the muzzle;
3. A container with an explosion splash – on the sides of the muzzle;
4. Agricultural crusher - also by the muzzle;
5. Tail.
It's worth starting with those places that are open to attack – this is a container with acid. Do not forget to use concentration by pressing "R3".
Next, shoot the Slitherfang containers, highlighted in purple, on the sides of the snake's muzzle.
After the snake is finally released, use the visor to find a heavy weapon lying freely on the sand next to the Eloy, which will cause a fair amount of damage to the car.
Finish off the Slitherfang and get to the data center.
Move forward for the marker and complete the passage of the first story task of viewing a long cutscene.
