Gaming Horizon: Zero Dawn (PS4)

Started playing this last week. Just playing for the story really. Tried playing for a while to immerse myself but couldn’t find the grab from a sandox style.

personally I think this would be better as a platformer like uncharted than open world.
 
Game got a bump to 60fps on PS5.
 
I've finally gone back to this after the patch.

I got a good 20 odd hours into it when it first came out but never finished it.

I forgot how amazing this game is.
 
I am very late to the party but this is a very good game. Enjoying it a lot.
 
Yeah but I'm not fussed about paying £50+ for a remaster. Would rather pay a fiver for a game that still looks quality despite being a PS4 edition!
Are you also planning to play the 2nd instalment? I find it an alright game but man there's soooo much dialogue. Even the side quests take like 1.5-2hrs each to finish if I want to exhaust all the dialogue options alongside the cut scenes. :lol:

Aye. Don't mind that sometimes though.
 
One strange thing about the game is how much they love doing a - give a character a final cut scene chat before they die scene - instead of them just dying.

If you're a fan of lots of talking about nothing in cut scenes, just wait until you play the second game!

I don't mind that. It just feels lazy to have quests where the character conveniently dies after you've just had a brief interaction with them telling you about the next part of the quest, rather than them just being dead. :lol:

I get if that happens once, but it happens several times in the game.
 
Think the melee combat was the thing that let this game down for me. Plotting how to take down dinos and enemy camps was fun, but at some point it always ends up resorting to melee combat, and that was kind of crap.

Yeah the melee absolutely sucks. Even arrows on human characters can do basically zero damage. Weird as hell how humans are stronger the robots.

Still an absolutely brilliant game though, I love both of them.
 
Finally got the platinum and all trophies for Frozen Wild. Just need to get the two for NG+ for 79/79 trophies but feck that right now. Forbidden West next.
