Horizon Zero Dawn

Recommended Posts

Anybody picking it up at launch like me? Between this and Zelda next week, I'll pretty set on open world games for a while! Reviews have been coming in, and the game it getting some exceptional critic scores. 88 on metacritic, with some publications calling it the new standard for the open world genre. 

 

 

Here's a pod talking about the mechanics of the game, story (no real spoilers), combat, interactions with the robots etc. Really psyched to play on the 28th.

The combat is so fuging addictive. All I want to do is seek out more poo to fight. 


The fight at the end of The Proving...I hadn't utilized the heavy melee blows until that point. Was pleasantly surprised at how well the mechanics worked with it and how the game sort of adapted to how you came at the enemy. I don't know if maybe I was overthinking it or maybe I'm just not remembering it correctly, but the animations of attacks timed with positioning of the enemies seemed to flow well and you didn't have animations that frame-jumped or anything. Could've stayed in that sequence for an hour and been content.

I'm so jealous right now.  Reading all of your comments, checking the Horizon sub on Reddit, and having to listen to my co-worker every day is killing me!  Luckily, my buddy said he'd let me borrow his  PS4 when he's done playing it (he's one of those guys who has every system, so he probably wouldn't miss it for a while).  I'll be six months behind, but it will be worth it.

I'm considering buying a PS4 slim for myself- between this, The Last of Us (never played it), Spiderman, God of War- it might be worth it if I can find a deal for one around 200

I've never owned a playstation in my life, and I currently own an Xbone so it would be a totally unnecessary purchase.

The Last of Us is amazing. It's the best single player game I've ever played. It really is a must play. It sounds like you'd get a lot of use out of it since you listed 3 games you're interested in. That's not even  including the remastered games that our PS Must plays like God of War 3, The Uncharted Collection, Uncharted 4, etc.

    • We definitely overpaid but as long as he's not lined up at NT he's been a starter level player which is a major step in the right direction compared to last year's D-line.  Because of his contract he'll definitely be here next year, but I fully expect him to be a cap casualty next offseason.  We'd save 15M in cap space if we cut him in 2027. I don't think he sees year 3 of his deal. I'd be open to keeping him around in 2027 but his deal would have to be reworked to a substantially lower number. 
    • Getting left out in favor of less-deserving Alabama is an honor bestowed upon a new team every year. Miami should take pride in back-to-back 10-win seasons for the first time in decades. As long as this doesn't cripple their program like it did FSU, they should be able to go for another one next year.  And, being someone who also likes to see Miami do well but knows its penchant for horribly timed losses, there's a great chance they don't find a way to beat UVa or Duke last night regardless of the matchup on paper. 
    • Truth be told, I just like a 4-3 defense better and I'll just jump in with any chance to make that statement. Seemed like an opportune moment.
