- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I was certainly behind the curve here, but Horizon Zero Dawn! I was expecting some vagely Zelda like adventure RPG (and it was), but the story was so much more compelling than I expected. What a memorable game! I even got a second hand PS4 to play the sequel on... which I haven't for like 6 months now. >_< (Too many other things to do!)
I played it thrice on PS4. Got the free DLC and played the DLC twice. It's such a powerful idea to have simple attack/dodge scheme and fight all kinds of machines even on Ultra Hard mode. The story is just OK, predictable.
The sequel, hmm, can't say it's even mediocre.
'I lost my old equipments in the bag.'
Grow up, writers. We're not five.
They added more moves in combat but I don't like it.
The world is big and boring. I feel like to explore it before the main plot even begins but only for old time's sake.
Oh, and don't have too high expectation on playing it with good performance on PS4.
