MY THOUGHTS ON THE GAME:
We edit together game movies for a living, so it's really hard not to be biased toward story heavy games. So anything we say about the game, you should take with that particular grain of salt.
Horizon was definitely a surprise for me. The concept seemed ridiculous to me when it was first revealed. "Robot Dinosaurs? Really???" But like everything else, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
In terms of visuals, this is definitely one of the best looking games on this console generation. The world in Horizon Zero Dawn is lush, beautiful, and full of detail. On the PS4 PRO it ran a steady 1080p at 30fps and never felt like it dipped. Guerilla Games makes sure to make the most out of the pretty visuals too, by having a wide variety of locations (desert, jungle, mountains) to explore freely. The open world is huge in this game, and almost feels daunting when you first get to see the full map.
The story is excellent, well paced and engaging. There are a couple mysteries in the game that keep you hooked and keep you wanting to continue just to find out what has happened to Earth. I'm not going to sit here and tell you that it's devoid of some big plot holes but that goes with most video game stories. The story is where the game is the strongest. Guerilla Games did a great job here spreading out all the mysteries and creating some interesting characters you cared about. With that being said, sometimes the lip sync felt slightly off, which would take me out of the immersion. Some of the voice acting was stilted as well. The main characters' voice acting were all great, but some of the side characters sounded like they were reading from a script.
Gameplay-wise, the game is fun and action-packed. Aloy's movements are fluid and you always feel like you have full control over her. It's also nice that they added some platforming type sections where you feel like you're playing Uncharted or Tomb Raider. It's not a huge mechanic in the game, but there are plenty of sections in the story where you have to make an epic getaway, or get up to a high place, and the little parkour element is a nice change of pace. The core fighting mechanic is shooting your arrows. Overall this is fun because you can craft different type of arrows, and unlock stronger bows and spears. It can start to feel repetitive at times. I think the they could have made the hand to hand combat better so it would be more viable to use as a normal tactic. The melee aspect feels to slow to use consistently. But a lot of your combat style depends on how you choose to level up your skill trees. You might be a stealthy player, and level up your stealth abilities first to tailor your gameplay that way.
Overall, this is an early contender for game of the year. It took us a little over 20 hours to beat the main story. As you guys can imagine, we tend to rush things because of the type of content we do. If you took your time and explored more than we did, you could easily double or even triple your playing time on the game. This is definitely a game worth picking up, especially if you're an Action-RPG type of person
Score: 9/10
