Horizon Zero Dawn

It's a'ight. The main character is rather bland and the inter-tribe political gobbledygook is uninspiring, but the graphics are gorgeous and it's fun taking down the robot animals.

I'm not as hot on this as most people seem to be. The world is gorgeous, exploring it was enticing, and the fights against the bigger robot dinosaurs were a ton of fun. Fighting the smaller, horde robots got tired three or four robots in, and combat with human enemies sucks around the block. The story is far more simplistic and cookie-cutter than people want to admit. The performance for Aloy is good, but the rest of the voice cast sounds kind of phoned in.

I was in a slump before Horizon Zero Dawn. But I enjoyed every second I had with it and intentionally platinumed it so that I could say I was done. When the DLC pack goes down to a decent price, I’ll happily return. Overall, though, sometimes my memories of experiencing a game are sweeter than actually playing the game itself. Horizon Zero Dawn got me back on a horse that I’d been missing but felt little compulsion to return to, and for that I’ll always be grateful to Guerilla Games.

When you get to the bottom of the barrel for game ideas you find a game where you hunt robots like they're wild animals and it's great.

Solid story and game design. Great graphics and soundtrack. Overall, a really enjoyable game and always great to see a strong female protagonist.

*uninspired level design🔴

Love story, design, imaginarily all of that...but although I played similar games, here I kind of struggle on PC, not enjoyable for me...

Talking with CYAN was the most interesting conversation in this game, a lot of the characters are dull, but the combat kept me engaged, and the quest to rediscover the future past - what Faro did made me mad. The Cauldrons are the worst thing in the game, the long ones at least and it's a shame you can't have a war party of overridden machines, since they don't follow you and can't be used in a lot of quests that happen in areas that have no overrideable machines.

Pretty world, terrible NPC dialogue, kinda fun combat

I can see the effort, but the game just bores me.
