    I loved this game. I don't get obsessed with a lot of video games (I get bored and move on quickly) but this game had me hooked. I finished the whole thing and then did the expansion pack.

    I cannot wait until part two.

    Excelente juego, es muy entretenido y sus paisajes son hermosos, su historia es muy enganchadora y sus misiones de lo mas entretenidas y retantes, me pareció un juego muy innovador y su jugabilidad es lo mas cómoda con 0 cooldown entre cada pelea.

    My 1st game in PS4. This game was why I that's why i bought PS4. Worth it.
    Graphics 10/10
    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.

Открытый мир исследовать не интересно и по факту не нужно, он пустой от слова совсем. Плотва не нужна и пешком спокойно можно пробежать. Большая часть навыков практически не играют никакой роли и были вставлены лишь бы вставить. Гринд и фарм кумарили всю игру, искусственное растягивание геймплея игре пошел только во вред. Ей богу, я всю игру пробегал в стандартной броне и со стандартным луком на нормальном уровне сложности, и мне было нормально (и только идиот будет говорить о раскрытии потенциала через самый сложный режим).
    Сюжетная основа годная, фишка потребления органиков роботами сразу выпускает ностальгическую слезу по второму Масс Эффекту. Но при прохождении было куча нелогичностей днищенских. Окей, ученая пожертвовала собой во спасение других, но при этом она взяла на базу идиота, который и возвел Судный День в абсолют, плюс оставила ему какие-то права, отчего этот дебил снова заварил кашу. Реально, просто гениально. Сама главная героиня - типичная баба с яйцами, все может, всесильная и везде сует свой сраный нос. Второстепенные персонажи не раскрыты совершенно, они как были картоном, так им и остались, характер не меняется, как были пустышками в начале, так ими же и остались в конце. Фем подтекст не может не "радовать". Все бабы сильные, независимые, еще и в некоторых областях и у истоков верхушки стоят, а мужики или злодеи, или мудаки, или просто нюни бесхарактерные, никакой половой дискриминации при разработке мира нет-нет-нет. На кой хер ввели возможность выбора в диалогах (фыркнуть, посюсюкать или хладнокровие), если оно ни на что не влияет совершенно?
    Я сильно разочарован игрой, таких похвал она точно не заслуживает. Если бы она не была эксклюзивом, то ей бы точно дифирамб не пели. Однозначно одна из самых переоцененных игр, которые мне доводилось играть.    … Expand

    Innovative game in every way: weapons, enemies, resources, skills, etc.
    A great unique story with side missions that keep you invested.
    Graphics are superb with very diverse environments.
    N.B. make sure to get the 'frozen wilds' DLC
    It's worth mentioning that watching the trailers discouraged me from buying the game as the theme felt childish, but experiencing it felt so different.

Cons:the actual leveling system is limited to 60 then after that you get “shadow levels” which do nothing for you while    This game is excellent.

    HZD is a great game. It ticks every box for what a great game should be, but it struggles with making you care about the characters. After 40 hours I barely gave a crap about Aloy, let alone anybody else and the story never really made me go "oooh, nice", it always just seemed to go on, giving me just enough not to stop playing. Strongly recommended for PS4 owners.

    Graphics - Impressive, however, the frame rate always dips when you have too much going on. Also, there's some serious problem with lighting in this game. There are times when the screen is so bright or so dark that you can't make out anything. At night, if you tilt the camera angle down, the screen becomes so dark it looks like a silhouette. I seriously think there's a bug in the lighting.

    Game play - They did well slowly introducing new mechanics using tutorial throughout the game. However, there are some really frustrating things you'll have to deal with. One thing for example, is that when you aim your bow at enemies in the sky, the grass will often completely block your view because the way third person camera works. It can be infuriating at times.

    Sound - The music was good, but it was used very sparingly. Most of the time there's no sound at all.

    World building - For an open world game it has a reasonably large map, but it's definitely not Zelda or Witcher large, and they clearly cut corners in some places. For example, many towns would have almost nothing but a tiny square inside the walls. The main enemy base has NO towns. All they had was a tiny courtyard with people making noises but no NPC's. It felt really weird. They might as well not made that part of the city at all.    … 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.

    I found the script really lacking as well. In the middle of a battle, the main character will mumble some inane comment about the snow that she’s made 100 times already.
    Combat is frustrating. Because the bow often inflicts minimal damage, you find yourself slogging through repetitive melee combat that , frankly, becomes boring.
    The music score is poor, with an annoying electronic thrum each and every of the 10,000 times you need to consult the map/crafting screens.
    The storyline is muddled and bogged down.
    This is a classic case of length/ open world not equaling greatness.
    Give me the 4 hour re3 remake, that actually has a flow and the action all makes sense, rather than 50,000 upgrades that in the end, leave you right back where you started because no one weapon can just put a hole into your enemy.
    People put this game in the same class as games like Zelda BOTW or The Last of us. I’m here to tell you that those games tower above HZD in all aspects.    … Expand

    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

    Considering time and console this game was released on together with the level of detail, atmosphere, story density and amount of time you can spend this game is one of the few that might deserve a 10/10 although to be totally fair it has its own scratches. I would give it a 9.5 as always going up and down with my gut feeling. Horizon takes the 10 and very much deserves it.

I would give it a 9.5 as always going up and down with my gut feeling. Horizon takes the 10 and very much deserves it.

    I ve been playing on a PS4 Pro with SSD and I m impressed with the stability of this title. I had no frame downs, no bugs, no blue screens. The loading times and fast traveling times are good in the seconds, even the jet inside my PS4 was still somewhat acceptable. Considering that Horizon might have the best graphics (or at least top5) on this console generation this is really impressive. The charactes are beautifully designed and have individual marks. The world and atmosphere has a wide variety of schemes and provide a successful mix of fantasy with sci-fi elements.

    The sound design is well made although it could have been perfected on the surround end. In comparison to other games this is not really mentionable just providing space for the last bit of perfection this game could use.

    The weapons are a little let down for me personally. I do like bows but the variety of the provided weapons are kind of mediocre considering what feels viable and what not. Also it would ve been nice to have more melee variety because melee actually is not that bad in this game. There is just not much variety to the weapons you can use. Same goes to the amount of different armor types you can buy. In my 100% playthrough I used 2 armor types, got the special one at the end and that was about it. Probably on the highest difficulty this might be more necessary it is still a bit sad that on the intended normal difficulty it does not make any difference how you equip.

    Gameplay loops are standard open world styled. You can gather multiple types of collectibles, do timed hunter challenges, get main and sidequests while you progress by foot or mount through the immensely vast world. At the beginning fast travel is limited to consumables which is a kinda strange decision but it helps to keep immersion and get in touch with the world. The unlimited travel can be unlocked in the first part of the game so it is not much of a problem for people who dislike this decision.

    The skill trees are nice and it feels that you can emphasize on your personal play-style. Some skills are rather useless throughout the whole game whereas some should be skilled asap for maximum benefit. There is still not much you can do wrong. I missed that my focus ability was not able to get an upgrade for enhanced vision, wider range and highlighting stuff better. In my opinion something that would be immensely useful because finding collectibles can sometimes be very painful. Climbing indicators are sometimes vague and if you happen to go on collectible hunting at nighttime you might be up for some rage.

    All this still makes HZD one of the best games I have ever played. The amount of depth and details is immersive. The story is very cool and innovative. The world has a decent variety and you will be definitely busy for at least 20 to 40hrs+ depending on whether you go straight, do side-quests or completionist. Please be aware of that this review does not include the addon but solely the maingame.

    Considering you can grab this game including the addon for 20 bucks is honestly a steal and does underline my decision to give it a 10 besides some minor design flaws and subjective aspects I pointed out. People who like action adventure typed games which have a classic open world touch will definitely be pleased.    … Expand

    - the story is childish
    - the dialogues are childish
    - characters faces look silly (dead eyes, mouth movement doesn't match what they are saying, strange movement)
    - the game is lazy ass developed - i destroyed a bandit camp before talking to a dude from a side mission, he still talked about freeing the bandit camp i just destroyed
    - while some parts of the game look good, there are parts that look dead and nothing moves
    - when it rains everything looks like plastic, especially faces
    - the inventory system is annoying - why can't i just sell everything that is useless at once
    - my armor clips into cutscenes
    - too much farming needed
    - repetitive missions - i had to twice to track something within half an hour
    - limited freedom of movement - only yellow ledges can be climbed up
    - strange physics - swinging left and right when sliding down a rope
    - ....

    Verdict: Compared to GTA5, RDR2, Spiderman, and GOW it's completely lame for an open world game. Storytelling and character development remind me of old games. Graphics are not at all state of the art.

Thankfully Aloy the playable character and Rost the father type figure character were actually likeable and really inspiring characters.

    Ok with the critique of the story and characters out of the way. As regards to gameplay the climbing sections were arcade basic. While combat with the humans was kind of underwhelming.

    The rest of the game was from my point of view phenomenal. The environments looked really beautiful and told a story of not just the present, but the past. A large game world to traverse and at some point mounts are available, but I hardly used them. The combat was a lot of fun to engage in and looked visually amazing. Progression based leveling/weapons/gear led to using stealth and traps early game. Mid to late game going fun gung ho against gigantic mechanical enemies oh what a gaming high. This has a big map and this is a long game if you do all the activities.

    I have to say for all it’s flaws with the character writing and some underwhelming gameplay choices I think this is my fav game of this console generation. On a third replay and the first new game+. The gameplay loop keeps pulling me back in for sure. Even when the story and characters are just old hat now.    … Expand

Weapon classes, unlockable skills and craftable traps allow for moderately more in depth combat than just sniping with a bow, although you won't ever really be punished for choosing the latter route.

    After spending over 10 years playing games specifically to find the most well-written stories, I've come to find that the typical gamer doesn't notice, or isn't bothered by poor writing. Good writing basically means that the characters' actions and the world the characters inhabit are believable. After a few hours of playing this game, I found that both are completely unbelievable. Since the action/stealth gameplay was doing nothing for me, I found little to like about the game.

    To explain a bit, the protagonist is a modern, politically-correct 20's/30's girl, transplanted into a late-teen's body in a tribal/pre-industrial setting. Our protagonist was isolated as a baby and has lived in the wild, interacting with about three other people for her entire life at the time we take control of her (as an adult). But somehow, she has perfect speech, manners, and ability to deal with 100's of people at once. She's even an expert at sarcasm, which is strange given there's no indication that her guardian taught her to be like that.

    She's also seemingly devoid of most young-girl desires. Love/sex? None at all - maybe she was spayed. Hate/spite? Nope - that would clash with her politically-correctness. Need to fit-in? Nothing here either - it seems like she could care less about her newly-joined society after her childhood-long isolation. Though she does have a seemingly-unfounded need for a mother. This makes little sense unless others were constantly trying to convince her that she needed one. That happened only once in isolation, which isn't enough to ingrain it into someone. Oh, but the plot is about finding her mother, so we must simply accept it...

    So yeah, she just doesn't make sense. Though maybe the game is trying to appeal to people who just want to see themselves in a video game. So we end up with this modern-age generic person that is meant to appeal to as many people as possible, despite a person like this not actually existing.

    The world and setting has several issues too. The tribe you first encounter is tiny and appears to be modeled after nomadic hunter/gatherer tribes. I didn't see any farms large enough to sustain them and they've stayed in one spot for the entirety of the protagonist's lifetime. So how do they get food? They surely don't eat the mechanical creatures within meters of their camps.

    And what about those mechanical creatures? They attack and almost kill me just for walking down the road. How can their children exist with these things so close? And in my first quest, some kid got caught up a tree with machines surrounding her while her dad was stuck on the ground with a broken foot. How are they dumb enough to get in that situation? How did they both not die? I climbed up that same tree later and the machines could attack me easily.

    Oh, and those silly tribal rules seem to be made up on the spot. So the protagonist is outcast because she has no mother - why would anyone make that rule? But she can come back if she completes a deadly challenge when she's an adult - did the same dumb person make this rule? And no one is supposed to talk to outcasts. But everyone is constantly breaking that rule, so why does it exist? And how on earth do we have white people, black people, asian people, and middle-eastern people all in the same tribe? Tribes don't normally work like that, and there's no indication that these people just showed up all at once from different parts of the world to make this tribe.

    This is obviously a game about gameplay and graphics first. The protagonist, world, and beginning of the story is so poorly done that I have no reason to continue. Though I suppose I'll keep it for showing off HDR on my TV.    … Expand

    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:

    + 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 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

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’ve payed a lot RPG open world games, and HZD is one of the best out there and memorable, I played Witcher 3, and i think HZD is much better than Witcher 3, you literally need to know every enemies if you want to kill it.. if you see it from the outside without playing it you’ll be like “oh okay another repetitive arrow shots combat style” it’s literally not like that, it’s surprisingly so rewarding after you beat some machine, I mostly always open the in game notebook to see every enemy weakness before i jumped into a fight.. the story is still fresh compared to Witcher3 and they’ve done it well, I love it... it reminds me of metal gear series, it’s a mind blowing story, if you love metal gear series then I think you’ll love this kind of story.. 10/10 even the world and the animations is better than Witcher3 I don’t know why, but it’s true.. ps: sorry I compared this too much to Witcher 3, because they have same genre, gameplay contents etc, but yess HZD for me is much better than Witcher 3... btw I played this on insane difficulty..

    I know it’s kinda late to play and to give a review, but yea I just played and finished it now and I love it!    … Expand

    El juego es notable en muchos apartados (gráficos y diseño especialmente) y se siente muy divertido cuando combates contra los dinosaurios mecánicos. Pero:
    Creo que la trama no luce demasiado.
    La personalidad de la protagonista está muy mal desarrollada. Hay diálogos que claman al cielo. La necesidad de abastecerse de objetos constante y eternamente hace del juego algo muy tedioso.

    En cierto sentido sus mecánicas se sienten como un compendio de plagios. Personalmente nada más cogerlo me dio la sensación de ser un juego que ya había exprimido en ese sentido.
    Las misiones secundarias por lo general son un espanto, y las principales tampoco funcionan del todo como deberían.    … Expand

    Summary : Horizon: Zero Dawn is a fantastic game and pure escapism. Its world feels real and lived in, its combat is engaging and enormous amounts of fun, and the story's central mysteries keep you intrigued.

Its world feels real and lived in, its combat is engaging and enormous amounts of fun, and the story's central mysteries keep you intrigued.

    Horizon isn't the most unique game as far as open worlds go, but it does its thing with more polish and refinement than many other games.

    Pros:

    -Graphics: Horizon is beautiful game. Enemies look spectacular and the environments are immersive. The weather systems make the world feel alive (you can watch puddles evaporate in the sun). If you can see it, you can go there.

    -Gameplay: This is where Horizon shines the most. Combat is deep and each new skill you learn feels that in builds upon, rather than replaces, the skills you learned prior. It leaves room for different play styles, though early on in the game it focuses on stealth. You can be tactical or go in guns blazing. It is challenging enough to feel rewarding, but not frustrating.

    -Story: Lots of great lore with compelling mysteries.

    -Side quests: Side quests in many cases are as good as the main quests. Fetch and "go here and kill that" quests are in the game, but kept to a minimum.

    -DLC: Great DLC expansion in "The Frozen Wilds". Story is excellent and fits in with the narrative of the main game and many other elements feel even more refined.

    Cons:

    -NPC side stories and dialogue aren't particularly interesting and I was often finding myself skipping through them.

    -In general, you can't enter many buildings.    … Expand

    One of the best games I have ever played so far. This game has a really interesting story with an amazing combat system. I spent plenty of hours just with exploring and fighting the machines because it's really fun. To play Horizon Zero Dawn is really a pleasure.

    This is the most beautiful and complete experience I ever played on PS4 and probably in any platform. The game is super clean, graphics are AAA++, gameplay is fluid and the plot is worthy of a good book/movie.

    I've put over 100 hours into this game and 100% it, and yet it still always remains fresh and exciting due to the excellent AI in combat and I believe the best combat system in how it so effectively integrates the head on combat and its stealth. But even better is the enemy variety in each robot type and the need for different strategies for each enemy.

    What really brings the experience together is the incredibly written, imaginative, original story. It engrossed me from start to finish.

    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.
