Firstly the fast travel system is never mentioned so you basically keep playing the game knowing there is no fast travel, and walking to place to place is so damn boring seriously, and it’s not like the pay off is always good anyway. At least the combat system is unique, you use shooting weapons upgrade them and buy more but for some reason they forgot to make more melee weapons. The story is great and unique, but walking over 4000-5000 by foot or with a machine is not worth getting to know the story sometimes. Horizon Zero Dawn is a fun game with a great combat system and it’s an amazing game especially when ur in these moments fighting giant machines figuring out an amazing plot and exploring the world in general, however the biggest problem still stands, so much walking and no fast travel. (Good 3/5) Give It A Try… Expand

    Es una pena que tomara una pandemia mundial para que jugara a este juego. Lo compre en amazon nuevo y con el DLC por 15€ y ahora siento que he robado a Sony (aunque estoy tranquilo, sobrevivirán jaja).

    Es uno de esos pocos juegos que se pueden categorizar de obra maestra. No puedo ponerle ninguna pega. Si tienes una PS4 compra este juego, no te arrepentirás.

    Плюсы:
    + графика и мелкие детали (очень детально сделаны все машины и окружающий мир, хочется останавливаться на каждом углу и любоваться, благо тут есть фоторежим с множеством настроек)
    + сюжет и история мира (очень интересно читать все записки и голограммы, основной сюжет крайне увлекательный и слегка запутанный) + обширный открытый мир (пустыни, леса, снежные горы, степи - всё в    Плюсы:

    + обширный открытый мир (пустыни, леса, снежные горы, степи - всё в наличии)
    + приятная главная героиня (Элой достаточно красива, имеет особый характер)
    + множество навыков для прокачки (можно качать как скрытность так и ближний бой, собирательство и верховую езду)
    + отличное DLC ("The Frozen Wilds" добавляет новый снежный регион, со своими племенами, сюжетом и новыми опасными машинами)
    + выбор реакции ГГ (иногда можно выбрать, как Элой отреагирует в диалоге, хотя это и не несёт большой значимости)
    + выбор оружия и ловушек (у каждой машины есть свои слабые и сильные стороны, нужно подбирать эффективное оружие под каждого врага)
    + скрытность (здесь она хорошо реализована: кусты, отвлекающие маневры, бесшумные атаки, сканер Элой)
    + есть чем заняться (побочные квесты, котлы, лагеря разбойников, зараженные зоны и т.д)

    Минусы:
    - не интересные побочные квесты (почти везде нужно что-то принести / отнести / убить кого-то)
    - плохие лицевые анимации и диалоги* (отсутствие эмоций и постоянное кивание головой, иногда хочется их пропускать)
    - слишком резкая смена погоды (солнце-дождь-солнце-туман-солнце, и всё в течении 5 минут)

    *только в оригинальной игре (в DLC они сделаны гораздо лучше и эмоциональнее)

    Может не понравиться:
    = музыка (совсем не запоминается, не передаёт настроения)
    = необходимость сохранятся только в точках сохранения (специальные костры разбросаны по всей карте)

    Итог: игра удивляет основным сюжетом, открытым миром и графикой, но заметна плохая проработка диалогов и побочных квестов.    … Expand

The only bad thing is that side quests felt so repetitive at times. Still, I did not want to game to end. All in all, it is a solid 9 (9.5 really!).… Expand

    When I opened the game for the first time, I did not think that it could captivate me so much. The plot made me go through it in one breath in the literal sense. A variety of robots, weapons, a large open world are well made. Lighting is one of the best I've ever seen in games. But I would like to increase the storyline by 2-3 hours. In general, I really liked it.

    Horizon Zero Dawn is a science fiction, open world action game with RPG elements. That is the technical definition of the game. However, the game should be defined as a story about a young girl who loses everything, but rises to be a hero in a harsh but beautiful futuristic world.

That is the technical definition of the game. However, the game should be defined as a story about a young girl who loses everything, but rises to be a hero in a harsh but beautiful futuristic world.

    Gameplay – You play as Aloy, a young girl with a mysterious past. While the game focuses a lot on exploration the combat is the highlight of this game. The player gets a variety of weapons to take down the enemies. It is some of the most creative use of traps and bombs I have ever seen in a video game. This isn’t a game where you can run in guns blazing. Not to say those moments are totally absent from this game, but it isn’t what the developers had in mind. Aloys main weapon is a bow and arrows. Each Unique bow has unique function or type of damage. Along with bombs and traps the player has multiply ways to destroy enemies. The combat is strategic but not in a difficult way. It’s a system that lets you be creative, without having a steep learning curve. Whether you are discovering a cave with a secret piece of armor or surviving a horde of machines the game seems to offer something for just about every type of play-style.

    Graphics and sound – I played Horizon Zero Dawn on the PlayStation Pro. The developers took advantage of the Pro’s features and turned an already good look game into a visual masterpiece. Blades of grass move with the wind, sunlight trickles through dense tree tops, and rivers splash as they traverse through the land. These little details add so much to the experience. The game has you cross multiple different bio-domes. You start your journey in dense forest areas. Eventually crossing desert and snowy mountains. The game is based in a futuristic Mid-west America. Mostly in Colorado. The developers do a phenomenal job in capturing Colorado’s unique landscapes. They also recreated many real landmarks and locations. There was something eerie but satisfying seeing Colorado in this ruined post-apocalyptic state.
    This beautiful crafted world wouldn’t mean anything if the sound accompanying it didn’t match. One good example of the level of detail of sound put into this is the creak of rope on Aloy’s bow when she draws it back to fire an arrow. That was probably easy for the development team to replicate. The impressive part is all the futuristic sounds they created that do not exists. The giant robots sound as if they could actually exist. The screech and click as they move. You can hear their joints as they stomp around.

    Story and characters – The story of Horizon is the best part of the game. It’s the distant future and instead of an advanced society with flying cars and laser pistols, the human race as devolved in a way. Society has reversed back to tribes and more primitive ways of living. Part of the story is discovering what happened to the world and how it got this way. Aloy is kind of an outcast in her tribe. With no parents to look after her, she grows up in the wild, honing her survival skills. After a devastating tragedy on her tribe, Aloy is forced out into the world. There are so many interesting elements to the story the range from revenge to new friendships. But the highlight of the game is uncovering the mystery of why the world fell. Aloy is one of the most interesting characters in any video game I have ever played. Because she was isolated for her entire life, she is naïve about the world. This makes her curious. She doesn’t know deceit or cruelty. These means Aloy has flaws and makes mistakes. This allows the character to grow. While Aloy is most definitely a kick butt character. She isn’t this overpowered super hero. I think that is so important for the audience to have some sort of common ground with the character.

    While Aloy is the only playable character in the game, she isn’t the only interesting one. As you travel you will meet interesting, funny, and sometimes dangerous NPC’s. The development team proved they can make their own strong female lead. Which seems to be a hot topic now-a-days in the gaming community. Gamers love female leads. Look at Laura croft from Tomb raider, Jade from Beyond Good and Evil, Jill Valentine from Resident Evil. I could go on and on. Aloy is prof we still have smart writers in the gaming industry that can deliver a powerful, unique, and rememberable female lead.    … Expand

    I had to give it an 9 for 2 reasons.
    1. I wish the game itself had a longer main story.
    2. It did get a little repetitive near the end with a limited variety of enemies, the frozen wilds exp was a nice touch with more difficult enemies so that's a major benefit.

    Игра в которую поиграл спустя год после выхода и то потому что жене хотелось в нее поиграть. Я считал бредом роботы динозавры, животные, но после того как начал играть и когда сюжетно объяснили почему так, эта игра стала одной из ТОП в моем списке. Великолепно все. Даже DLC в которые я не играю. Сюжет посто супер. Прочитал почти все записки, аудиозаписки,. Игра закончена. Советую всем.Игра в которую поиграл спустя год после выхода и то потому что жене хотелось в нее поиграть.

    Really enjoyable game. The story was fantastic. I wanted to explore everywhere and learn what happened to humanity. Combat gets a little repetitive and the AI can be dumb (for example, watchers give up far too easily considering recon is their only purpose). I highly recommend picking the game up.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In my opinion, Horizon Zero Dawn is one of the best games available to Sony fans. The immersive world and great plot are a wonder, but the only thing stopping me from giving this game a 10 is the character animations and some side quest line delivery. They can really draw you out of the game, but overall, this game is amazing!… Expand

    Very fun game with a great storyline. I went for the platinum & even then, nothing was tedious. They could’ve had a different machine for the final boss but other than that, loved playing the game a lot. The DLC was also the most fun/glitchless DLC I’ve played. Different to most games I’ve played.

    Horizon Zero Dawn is one of the best games that the PS4 has to offer. The landscape is gorgeous and the combat is enthralling. The main story is intriguing and keeps you wanting more with Aloy, the main protagonist shining through it all. I cannot recommend this game enough especially if you like open-world games.

    What a lovely surprise. I found this in clearance, and my only regret is not having heard of this earlier.
    Excellent storyline, lots of action and very large open world levels to explore.
    The AI is pretty decent and you need to use the appropriate weapon for each critter. The gameplay is smooth and the visuals are very impressive.

    The open world in this game is gorgeous, the story is well-written and the combat are well-designed, it is the best and funnest thing in this game, pretty challenging and intense when fighting a few machines at the same time. Just sometimes the animation during character dialogues is odd but it's not an issue to the gameplay itself. Totally a must-play for fans of open-world and ARPG.

    Horizon Zero Dawn is the first game that has made me enjoy combat. It's usually the thing I hate most about a game, but for the first time ever, I actually looked forward to the fights.

It's not only beautiful to look at, but it's also filled with amazing stories. I also love how we could sometimes decide how Aloy reacted to certain situations, as it made the experience more personal for me. I hope we can see more of this universe and more of this character in the future!… Expand

    The story is compelling and the characters are very interesting.
    What I think is best aspect of this game is the environment. Everything seems so alive and the world seems to really connect within.
    The protagonists are well built and their motivations are quite relatable.

    Music and "feeling" 10/10
    Control of weapons 8/10 (my bad, I need learn to use controller aiming.)

    Story 10/10. One of game what should have been suggested to Asimov price.
    Side quests is huge more content.

    The unfortunate fact of Horizon is that most of what it does well, other games have done better, and they did it with a compelling who and where. This is the game you play after you’ve finished The Witcher 3, Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, and Far Cry: Primal. It is the greatest hits compilation of open-world games. Yeah, sure, you might want to own it, but the real connoisseur has the original albums.

    Horizon Zero Dawn has an unforgettable protagonist, world, story, visuals, soundtrack and gameplay. Due to minor issues with inventory management and quest selection, I cannot call it perfect but I can say it is absolutely worth your time.

    There is enough spectacular action to keep you occupied for a couple of weeks, but Horizon is not the hot new killer app for PS4.
