I hate open world games. Probably a strange way to start an in-depth look into Horizon: Zero Dawn, you know, a giant game about exploration. But it’s important to address my bias. I have completed three open world games in my life, two of which were Japanese games, which aren’t quite the same thing – Final Fantasy XV and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Both games, strangely enough, benefit from a large, empty world, unlike your run-of-the-mill AAA open world games – your Far Crys, Assassin Creeds, Just Causes.
The third open world game I’ve completed is this one – Horizon: Zero Dawn.
