Horizon Zero Dawn

I played this game on PS4 with no problems, got it for PC to play frozen wild expansion. It has way to many glitches to enjoy the game. Random deaths when falling through the world and objects. Player camera flying away and player getting stuck. With no save options other than at camp fires you can expect to redo a lot of the gameplay because you die trying to climb a path or jumping on a tall neck. Do not buy this game for PC.

ABOUT || The post-apocalypse has never been prettier and cooler. Horizon: Zero Dawn is a third-person, open-world RPG starring Aloy, an outcast shunned by her tribe her whole life due to her mysterious origins. After joining a competition gone awry, the tribe sends her to a perilous journey to avenge those who did her people wrong. I played on hard difficulty. PROS: ● This visuals on this thing is legitimately prettier than real life, touched by the Heavens above who itself probably got ashamed when it saw the majesty of Aloy’s world compared to what it did ● Robotic body animation aside, character facial animation (mostly) approach and go deep into the uncanny valley, more so than any open-world game to date ● A very video-game plotline of a special one who gets ordered around and ****, tucked inside a pretty fascinating post-apocalyptic backdrop which is somehow quite exiting to learn – about how it all ended ● Tribal societies living among robot animal creatures in a post-apocalypse earth is one of the coolest open-world game pitches ● Combat is dynamic, phrenetic and satisfying, featuring quite a diverse range of era-appropriate mechanical weapons, and aggressive enemies rocking various attack behaviors and competent AI ● Man, the designs on those machines – the animations, the behaviors, the sound design – are just ***-tier, properly mimicking their organic counterparts except for their tameness and lack of tendency to murder you on sight ● Aloy is thankfully quite agile, handy for all the ************* robots that jump on her with maximum prejudice ● Terrific soundtrack that nicely matches the majesty and ethnic-ness of the world ● That majestic lens flare, and the ridiculously dynamic vegetation (or the tall red bushes at least) ● The sheer lushness of the world puts every other open-worlds to shame, except Red Dead Redemption 2 of course ● Competent voice acting all around, giving justice to those (mostly) well-crafted facial animations ● That flipping (human) takedown animation is very cool indeed ● The NPCs in this thing sure rock some ridiculously awesome outfits, shrouded with steel and ethnicity ● The open-world manages to avoid the Ubisoft syndrome of repetitive bullshit with pretty fun activities CONS: ● Aloy suffers from the absolutely annoying inability to climb and scale obstacles without those conveniently-placed white-powder markers and yellow doodads ● The camera annoyingly shifts Aloy’s screen position if you make her move perpendicular to you ● Side quests are alright at best, mediocre at worst, featuring forgettable characters and at least one ******* follow-the-trail sequence followed by machine-killing spree ● Characters are generic open-world blokes, existing only to annoy you with another side quest ● The top-tier outfit sets look literally and exactly the same two tiers down the line, which is bullshit
