I recently needed a calm and relaxing game that's a little bit of building, survival, and exploration. I finally settled on Among Trees since it was on sale for the holiday and while there is next to no building things the game is simply.... stunning and BEAUTIFUL. Btw, I am playing in Zen mode so no scary bear encounters for me. I just run around with my little fox friend and admire all the COLORS. I am living for the color themes by god

I will happily fish to feed my fox and plant my little seeds in the greenhouse and run across quite a large map for HOURS. Sunset is the best and the occasional lovely ambiance of rain is glorious too. I'll be posting pics from this game for a while....

What was Lost Quest (No spoilers!)

I really loved this quest and I kept having to pause the game to try and get great shots of Kotallo (I call him Hubby 1) while he was fighting. I'm not super happy with them but hey I had a blast.

At this point I have a couple hundred shots of Horizon Forbidden West that I've posted sporadically acrossutliple platforms. I want to start revisiting some older shots and creating some themes so I'm going to start with something simple:

Blue

Hope you enjoy them!

Okay so hear me out. All of them say "Kotallo told me" instead of "Kotallo told us"

So I'm 99% convinced he kidnapped each of them to talk individually about Aloy flying and defeating Regalla. All of that only to have more reason to tell the story all over again.

Some underwater exploration!

Some shots from a machine fight and some additional alt filters at the bottom I loved as well... because I kept pausing so much during the fight I quickly lost track of it and totally died when switching out of photomode near the end lmao

Totally worth it for the first shot tho ngl

Some B&W shots of Aloy and this lovely back-lit silhouette I found when retrieving a Blackbox. Gosh I love this game sm

Also Tumblr hasn't been allowing me to post just giving me oopsie daisy errors so hopefully this works

me playing horizon forbidden west: i don’t wanna continue the main quest just yet, so i’ll finish this completely non-threatening side quest instead

the side quest: fight a thunderjaw and a tremortusk simultaneously!!!

me:

[thebloodles]

Nxnxnnxbdb you know that tiktok? audio that goes like: "The PH of this soil is too high, I think I may die....." Then it goes," FUCK YEA, CONCRETE!"

I feel like that's Beta(with her being the PH) and Aloy(she's the Concrete). 😅😅🤣🤣

Me: man, that's kinda mean Also me: *continues to draw it*

Random collection of snapshots. This game continues to be beautiful and stunning down to the smallest details 😍

I love that the companions in HFW cheer Aloy on during combat

but my absolute favourite is Erend, impassioned but absolutely clueless, yelling YEAH CLEAR THOSE WEEDS when she's removing a metal flower

We love a ride-or-die bestie who has absolutely no fucking idea what's going on
