⚠️minor burning shores spoiler!⚠️

Since Aloy is following her mom’s steps….. (saving the biosphere, building gaia, getting a gf and wondering when she’ll see her again, etc)

I’m worried if she would sacrifice herself at the third game

What a roller-coaster of emotions seeing the gorgeous trailer for the amazing hfw dlc... just to realize it's ps5 exclusive 🤦

#To my fellow horizon fans and ps4 players : I'm so sorry #horizon forbidden west #hfw spoilers #Hfw: burning shores #Horizon forbidden west dlc #Hfw dlc #Hfw: bs #Horizon forbidden west: burning shores #Whyyyy ps5 exclusive #It's so expensive and I'm so broke #I would love to redo the whole game again on ps5 #But I'm just an autistic uni student who cannot afford to spend +600€ on gaming T-T #My best plan right now is to find someone who has a ps5 and begged them to rent it ><

But wait, there’s more! A follow up to my recent maps showing Humphreys Peak - I think that if anything, Brin got to Lake Mead by following the Colorado River from the Daybrink to Lake Mead, and that others have also possibly used this route to get in to the Forbidden West without passing through The Daunt

Want some hard proof that Thornmarsh is the Bakersfield area and the Zenith base is Vandenberg Space Force Base and we’ve already been SUPER close to Los Angeles (and why I don’t think we’re going there in the DLC, but rather south towards Yuma Arizona, possibly in to Tucson AZ, and in the area near the Salton Sea/Joshua Tree/Coachella Valley along the eastern shore of Baja California where it has made its way inland from present day, up the Colorado River a ways) See this map, and cross reference it with the real world location of Fox Theater!!! The Long Coast relic ruin is the Fox Theater which is in present day Bakersfield CA! That, in tandem with the location of present-day oil fields being generally the Bakersfield area and South, combined with the in-game lore we know about the world moving away from fossil fuels (Dod Blevins is mocked for using a gasoline driven snowmobile) has me thinking they’re not adding any additional oil wells, and we see oil wells south of Thornmarsh. What do you think?

Since it’s been a year since Burning Shores came out, some thoughts on Seyka:

TL;DR: Great character, really happy with her as a love interest for Aloy. They do some really interesting things with her that I never really see addressed so I wanted to talk about them.

She is tangibly shown to be much more of a match for Aloy through gameplay. Compared to other npcs, she solves things faster, does more damage, is a much more formidable melee combatant, faster climber - she even has a fucking Valor Surge using her Focus that does pretty significant tear damage to large machines like Slaughterspines. Environmental storytelling- Seyka’s skiff has at least 2-3 Tiderippers’ worth of parts, meaning she’s been out on her own killing the things to build boat motors, and she has some ambient dialogue that strongly suggests she’s fought and killed Slaugterspines before. Is some of this npc tech advancements in Burning Shores? Maybe, but it feels intentional. 

Seyka has a natural probing curiosity about the old world that for the most part Aloy’s other companions didn’t have without some significant hand-holding from Aloy to get them started, and some of her close friend (but not base team) characters just don’t have at all. I don’t mean this as a moral judgement, everyone is different and has different strengths and priorities , but it’s absolutely critical that a partner for Aloy have that kind of curiosity - it’s such a big part of her character. While she lives in this new world, she’s never going to be entirely a part of it. Like she says, she finds belonging in individuals, and not really the tribes. I don’t really see Aloy settling down in Meridian or Mother’s Heart. She needs to have a life of exploration and discovery and Seyka seems cut from that cloth too, whether she was always that way or being marooned gave her a fresh perspective.

Seyka did risk death using the focus and decided to do it anyway- in Rheng’s notes he calls for capital punishment for her. The threat is never *too* present but honestly I think that’s a broader critique of the series and pretty consistent with the writing of conflicts in Horizon. I agree they could have played up the dramatic tension a bit, but this is a person who weighed the risk of a military execution by a totalitarian state and immediately decided it was worth it to save her sister and others. I think Aloy can intimately relate, given what she went through for Beta.

Even though it’s a DLC, she has a TON of screen time, probably comparable to Kotallo in HFW, and Horizon does SO much storytelling through gameplay and ambient dialogue. I think she’s given a LOT of narrative space to breathe. She’s also has her own musical cues and leitmotifs that do a ton of foreshadowing work through the DLC - in terms of musical cues and framing she’s very associated with the acoustic guitar, and the flute melody in ‘Her Sky, Her Sea’ has for Aloy and Seyka the same function that ‘It Can’t Last’ does for Ellie and Dina in TLOU2 - next time you play Burning Shores, listen for it. That and the guitar cues from ‘The Idea of Home’ and ‘For His Entertainment’ do a lot of emotional work. It’s great stuff.

Okay and lastly- YMMV on this one - I’ve def talked about it with friends before but I don’t think I’ve said it on Tumblr. I’m a firm believer that meta narratives and the way that stories are situated and created in our own world matter and that art deserves to be taken seriously and dissected. I love Horizon, but it, and Aloy as a protagonist, are absolutely drenched in white savior and colonial storytelling tropes. Every time I play Frozen Wilds, all I can think of is Jack Sparrow going “and then they made me their chief”. There’s a lot of iffy stuff in the games, as much as I absolutely love them. We’ll have to see how H3 goes, but Burning Shores is MUCH better about this and honestly Seyka is a huge part of it. The story centers itself on a queer woman of color who is pretty tangibly presented as Aloy’s equal with her own strengths and weaknesses throughout the story and takes the lead just as often if not more than Aloy does, which I find really refreshing. It doesn’t entirely fix Aloy’s white savior issues but I think it’s a really good move for the narrative that continues the themes found in HFW about community and connection.

buckle up folks i’ve been theorycrafting for the Burning Shores and making some maps for interpreting the real world locations of Horizon Forbidden West stuff For context, I think Thornmarsh is the Bakersfield area and the peninsula where Monterey sits (Bixby Creek Bridge in the Gauntlet Run) is just vertically squished, and the flooded area is indeed the entire Central Valley of CA, a quick google maps search of the location of oil wells in California today + the oil wells just south of Thornmarsh are part of my evidence for this, as we know they move away from fossil fuels in the 2030s during the Clawback so I highly doubt more wells have been drilled, and right now the farthest north wells in CA that are south of San Francisco are in Bakersfield area

What do you think?
