    Uma das melhores experiencias que tive nesta geracao, alem de lindo o jogo conta com uma visao do futuro pouco explorada e todas as side quests sao muito bem elaboradas...o mundo aberto é de cair o queixo com a variedade de ambientes e personagens para interagir...no PS4 PRO em 4K garante um dos graficos mais lindos desta geracao...recomendo a todos.

    Gráficos Lindos, Historia envolvente, missões secundarias sensacionais.
    Contras : Física do personagem poderia ser melhor.

    La nueva IP de Guerilla viene a ser un imprescindible para PS4. Su historia, jugabilidad, mecánicas son una maravilla. Destacar a la protagonista, Aloy. Te enamorarás de ella :)

    Mi primer juego en PS4 después de muchos años sin tocar una consolal, y una gran sorpresa para alguien que venía de jugar exclusivamente a PC. Desde el primer minuto, hasta el último, al margen de subjetividades de todo tipo, estaba convencido de jugar a un grandísimo videojuego. Una magnifica protagonista, una muy buena historia, y mucho más de lo que podía esperar de esta consola.

    Game-play is worth a buy alone. It's some of the most fun I've had in a game in recent memory. However, the story was a bit messy and some of the side quests and voice acting were bad. But my overall experience was great.

    Os gráficos são belíssimos, durante a exploração é praticamente impossível não dar uma parada para ver o ambiente ou escutar os sons da natureza, ele realmente te imerge no mundo do game.
    A história também é muito boa e tem algo que considero fundamental que são os mistérios e as soluções desses mistérios são inteligentes e interessantes.
    Os combates e a jogabilidade estão em um alto nível, os controles respondem prontamente ao comando, as máquinas são muito rápidas e cada uma tem uma forma diferente de enfrentar, o que demanda estratégia, furtividade, e dinamismo entre os diversos equipamentos que o jogo lhe oferece.
    Torço para que esse game tenha uma continuação, pois esse é um dos melhores jogos que joguei nessa geração.    … Expand

    Horizon Zero Dawn is a big surprise for me in 2017. The design of machines and the story of Aloy is so amazing. Although it has some shortcoming, it still let me have great expect about the future of Horizon's sequel.

    A great first attempt at an open world game from Gorilla Games, and a nice departure from Killzone. Unfortunately, the game does suffer from some very major flaws, flaws so big that the second to none graphics do not make for them.
    Cons:
    -Aloy, from start to finish, feels terrible to control. Causing constant frustration as you feel like you have to fight with the controller 24/7.

    -Terrible loot system. It is about as deep as a puddle.
    -Poor story.
    -Weird looking character interaction cutscenes.
    -The sense to explore is curtailed by a lack of incentive, but also having every unique part of the map be part of a quest means that you are punished for your exploration unless the quest is active.
    -The combat looks great but feels bad, and often times leaves you frustrated due to a poor camera that gets stuck on everything, Aloys poor movement, AI enemy animation being scripted to play out exactly as animated regardless of Aloys positioning leading to being knocked down when not having been hit, similar to the same issue present in monster hunter games.
    -The Enemy variety is a little small.
    -The NPC and world interaction are bare bones.    … Expand

    NeNew ip for Guerrilla Games, is good?
    The game have a interesting, story. And the gampelay is open word game, I think the game need to be more ambitious in the missons and the hunt.

    I have nothing but good to say about this game. The lore behind it is both primitive and futuristic that might turn some off, but once you catch on to the story line and the deeper meanings, you won't be able to put it down. 10/10

    Horizon's story, world design, visuals and weather effects get 10/10 from me. Got the fun & fair platinum trophy after 50+ hours of thoroughly enjoying the game. If the climbing system, soundtrack and quest design were better the whole game would be a ten. Superb game overall.

    This game does a lot of things right but overall it was a pretty boring game. The combat, graphics, the AI and the overall polish of the game is great. I can feel that the developers have put in a lot of effort into these areas. But other than that the game did not offer much in my opinion.

    My biggest problem with the game is the story and Immersion. The characters were boring and predictable and for some reason a lot of missions felt like chores. And the world, even though it was pretty, felt un-interactive and bland.

    This game is a good example of a game that has an open world without good reason. It felt like the developers made it into an open world because it’s popular but they had no idea how to make it good. It was full of unnecessary and boring content that made the game feel to “gamey” which ruined the immersion.

    Overall it felt like the game had been made in a board meeting and they tried to fill all the checkboxes of what is expected in a good game. But in the end this made the game bland without any passion or soul.    … Expand

    An amazing game! Each machine has a different way to defeat them. Very powerful and interesting main protagonist. Story was very interesting and I am very interested in the sequel. One of the best PS4 exclusives out there. Only small problem I had was the side missions aren't that useful, they're just there for you to do but some people might disagree with this.

    I am most impressed with the facial animations. You can really feel through your character's expressions... It was quite astounding and I honestly miss her sarcasm now that I've completed the game.

    This game is wonderful; I envy you who have the chance to play it fresh!    … Expand

    Fascinating setting and story, amazing graphics and solid gameplay. Melee combat needs some improvement and world`s interaction is really limited outside of combat, especially compared to modern open worlds. Main story is good, but sub-quest are a bit fetchy. Solid start for a new saga by Guerrilla.

    An overhyped, overrated trash heap of good ideas with horrible execution.

I finished this game and was only left with a headache, hundreds of questions, and surprisingly a desire to commit suicide (Very few forms of media have actually pushed me to contemplate ending my own life.) All in all, this game had great ideas but the worst execution possible. I mean, how do you **** up robot dinosaurs?… Expand

    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.
