Horizon Zero Dawn - Video Games As Art
Horizon Zero Dawn is a beautiful open-world game which puts you in the shoes of Aloy, a young woman who is an outcast from her tribe in an apocalyptic future where nature has taken back the remnants of discarded destroyed cities and technologies. Wild robot dinosaurs and creatures roam the land as you try to uncover what happened to this world. I’ve been playing a few open-world games recently and this (alongside God of War) have been compelling as the voice acting has been top notch, the graphics stunning and, most importantly, the game designers have had respect for my time and haven’t padded out the experience with nonsense and pointless tasks that add nothing to the game. Listen up modern Ubisoft, this is the way it’s done son!
Check out my screenshots from the playthrough as this is one of the most gorgeous looking games I've ever played and is well worth a looksie.
