I didn't particularly care for the 1st one at first. It took me a long time to circle back and actually play through the whole thing. The closer to the end I got the more I enjoyed it. But overall, wasn't a big fan.

The second one looked great, and I did end up enjoying the first one enough to warrant buying a copy. But I never finished it.

I don't like Aloy very much. She has such a self important and arrogant attitude, and yes she is very important to that world, but it's like they dialed it to 11 for her. Some of the side characters are ok, but nothing special. It just didn't have enough that I enjoyed to keep me interested in it.

Like, one of the first things you do in Forbidden West is pass through a check point. She arrives and demands to be ket through immediately. The people explain that a very important peace treaty is being signed outside the gate to end a decades long war, and that any interruption will be seen as a hostile action and the war will continue. They politely ask her to wait a few hours before she passes. Instead she hits them a "Don't you know who I am? You can't stop me, I'm going through that gate right now. You can can either let me through, or I'll fight my way through."

It's like, good god? Am I supposed to be rooting for her? There was a similar event in the first game too. She just kind of ruins the game for me. Which is a shame, because it's a fun game with an interesting world... But I cannot bring myself to care about most of the characters.
