I love the look of the graphics etc, but don't understand the concept of machine dinosaurs tbh
If you've got a really far reaching imagination you might get on with it. For me though it's really unrelatable. The story is really uninspiring. The combat is mundane and none of the weapons have any clout. Camera angle spins off overhead sometimes during mid combat and when talking to people it randomly changes to close ups which is weird. There's no key on the world map and I'm sick of mother earth s**t. All in all 4/10.
Ok I'll admit.... It's grown on me....I've revised my 4/10 to a 8/10. Once you enter the outside world it gets ALOT better. I can see now why it gets high scoring reviews. The first part of the game is really off putting but once the leave "the embrace" it becomes much more engrossing. It is a truly massive game!

Bit of a bump but got this yesterday with the Pro (Wipeout collection is being CEX'd) and have to say its impressive. It looks absolutely gorgeous on our 55" 4K HDR tv. Like amazing. Just about to leave the embrace so not too far into it yet but so far so good.
Still not won over by the PS4 controller but thats neither here nor there.

Pretty much what others have said. It's lovely to look at until you play it.

How are the controls?
In what way do you mean mate?

I've heard they're a bit clunky, that's all
Oh right. No, completely fine for me.
I thought the controls were fine.
My biggest criticism would be if you compare this to something like Grand Theft Auto - in GTA, you'll start of just driving, then get a gun, then get a sniper, then a plane, the a bazooka, then a chopper etc... the story builds up and lets you play with all the toys.
In Horizon I finished it with the 4 weapons I came across first, I'd have liked to have had to get hold of different weapons to do different things just to make the game a bit more varied.
Also (small spoiler, more of the game mechanics than the story)

I didn't like that after the last mission it basically just re-loaded the game to prior to the last mission - I'd rather it acknowledged I'd finished the game whilst I was going round and doing all the collectables but I guess I'm just being needy now
More fool you I say. I've got all the top weapons with mods etc. Must have been f**king hard with the standard shite weapons?! Did you rush the story?

Really? Once you get it down it's actually too easy, and once you get the shield-weave armour even the hardest difficulty becomes easy mode.
Basically, always be moving - I crutched on my sharpshot bow, once you get some good mods on it you can beat the whole game with it without ever needing to change weapon, I used stealth wherever possible; bandit camps I would just pick them off one by one. Once you get the extra concentration perk, and the fire 2 and 3 arrows at a time perk, you can just mow through everything.
I think this game has one of the best stories ever, it's very clever, and the way you slowly discover more; open world games can often be short on story, but not this one, the voice acting and audio journals are actually good listening unlike most games, they really add to the vibe. Bravo to whoever did the lore.
Yea I got bored of collecting and went for story missions
I assume you went out to find good weapons? In GTA the story makes you use a variety of stuff so I prefer that method
I added some mods that I picked up along the way but it wasn't that bad
I really enjoyed this game. Only gripe was I'm one who doesn't like to skip anything so I do all the side missions as I get them which got a bit boring. My own fault I know but when I got back into the main story it was really good. I hope the dlc is a good size story worth buying.
