Someone tell Bioware to put a photo mode in their next game, because it's great.

I just keep saying this i LOVE this game it keeps getting better and better sorry for my enthusiasm guys. This is probably going to be my best game of 2017 and maybe my best game ever if it continues like this. And i also love my circle button in this game haha. I stood on a mountain yesterday and the view was just breathtaking beautiful wow!! If i didn't own a PS4 i would buy one if i could only play this game and now i'm signing off.

Speaking of things we like about Aloy as a protagonist. (Tagging since I don't know how spoilery it is) I really like that the devs didn't feel the need to give her any kind of love interest. Rather we see various characters (male and female) show signs of interest in her, but she's far too busy running around saving the world to pay much attention to it.

Not sure why the robots are fighting each other. Was clearing a corrupted zone and two Snapmaw's decided to show up for artillery support (and kill everything).

I've noticed that corrupted and non-corrupted really hate each other. Had something similar happen to me when I cleared out one. A Snapmaw just walked in and started beating on everyone

Fought a Stormwing or whatever it's called just to see what it was capable of. They're immensely powerful. It was also 6 levels above me so i think that I can take it once im at the same level. Man what i wouldn't give for a high powered sniper rifle in this game smh

I think i've seen one when i was on my way to Meridian ( beautiful city and full of life ) it was still pretty far away so i have not yet encountered one. Was it something like this the picture says Stormbird so you were close.

Stormbirds and Glinthawks are the bane of my existence in this game. They move so fast, are impossible to get the drop on, and the heavier weapons can't hit them most of the time. Give me a Thunderjaw any day, with them all I have to do is knock off their guns and use them against it.

Pity you can't use Stormbirds or Glinthawks as mounts, although I guess that would be pretty gamebreaking.

35 hours in now, game just keeps getting better. So many cool little details are in this game....Guerilla really loved making this, you can tell. Aloy is right up there with the very best heroes IMO, joining only a handful of my favourite protagonists from the last few decades of gaming, the likes of Nathan Drake, Shepard, Gordon Freeman, Monkey+Trip, Link, Adam Jensen and Geralt. Playing on Hard feels like the perfect mix of danger and fun, dialed it up to Very Hard for a while, but it became more of a chore than a step up, so settled on Hard for the rest of my adventure. God it feels good to add to the 'favourite games' pile once again. Your boy Blake Griffon looking pretty good! 😆

I can't comment on the story yet, but the gameplay draws from a lot of different games. It might be a bit of an over-simplification but Horizon is basically Far Cry with a BioWare-esque dialogue tree. Aloy is a pretty good protagonist, some of her ambient dialogue is just great. Look out below!

It's really, really good. I'm 50 hours in now and only about 2/3 the way through the story, but it's one of the best examples of open world storytelling I can think of: very emotive with some brilliant voice work and music to boot. Combat is a blast, it's the only game where a bow is so much fun to me....it's ridiculously great actually. It's also addictive as fuck - I can't stop playing it or thinking about it: the lore/world/characters are that good. Games it's taken inspiration from would be Skyrim, Far Cry, Dark Souls, Mass Effect and The Witcher 3...it's elements are more than the sum of their parts though, it's an extremely well put together game with a lovingly crafted open world that feels truly massive.

Story is probably the part that has suprised/impressed me the most. I suspect I'm nearing the ned of the game and each main storyline mission has outdone most of the ones before it. Side stuff is pretty amazing too but damn this lore and the characters are just so much more than I dared to hope

I actually just finished the main story and I can say it's really solid, more than I was expecting. No spoilers, but the explanation for why the world is the way it is is both surprising, interesting and even manages to convincingly explain why there are giant dinosaur robots wandering about. I'm also happy that it didn't end with a cliffhanger or sequel bait. It tells a complete story. It leaves room for a sequel, but it doesn't need one. There are really only two criticisms I have. First, the lip syncing is terrible... yeah, it's just really not good. The faces look great before they start talking, but they don't emote well most of the time. The second is that the gameplay loop can get very repetitive. Mostly it's fun, but eventually you'll fast travel wherever possible because fighting off machines every time you want to travel down the road can get quite tiresome. Oh, and if I had to pick another issue I would say most of the character's besides Aloy. They aren't necessarily bad, but very few of them are actually very interesting or get you to care much about them. Still a fantastic game though. EDIT: And never mind what I just said about sequel baiting, I've now seen the post credit scene. Well, it wasn't too bad. Aloy's story is still nicely wrapped up.
