Zelda Breath of the Wild... pretty awesome.
KenToad:
I've barely even heard of Horizon zero Dawn. I'll Google it.
opt2not:
Haha, I love cooking in games.
Odin Sphere was my favourite for this.

Horizon Zero Dawn crapped all over this Zelda.

The hell it did. I'm going through it right now. Stupidly complex, unrecognizable icons, frustrating battles, an overly complex and confusing crafting system and basically all the worst parts of an open world game. If it weren't for the story and the combat system I would have quit already. Honestly I'm about to quit the damn thing and the whole time I'm thinking "Why can't this be more like Breath of the Wild?" BOTW is light on the rpg elements, because Nintendo knows that action rules and grinding sucks. The map on botw uses contrast to it's fullest..... animals and notable items are colored so that they stand out... in Horizon there are several sections where the machine animals blend into the background a little too easily. Also there have been more than a few areas in the game where a certain level is recommended, I'll be over that level and I get stomped on. I don't think it's me because this is my favorite genre of game and I've never had trouble before. Actually I'd prefer if it was more like Assassin's Creed, or Watchdogs or any of those games really.... It seems like a good game at it's core, but it feels rushed and unpolished. Hell just try jumping and you'll feel like you are playing a game from the early 2000's.
I'm gonna stick with it for now, but better than BOTW... nah man, get out of here with that weak sauce.
pbj:
Stick with it. Takes awhile for the combat to click. A big revelation to me was realizing I could always run away.
Took me 50 minutes to get around a mountain in BOTW. I'm happy you liked it but it is a supremely over rated game.

I still haven't gone back and killed off ganandorf >:D But I did Plat Horizon. :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: Why don't we stop comparing apples and pears. Zelda is the best open world game on the Nintendo and Horizon is one of the best on Playstation. Both have their own annoyances, In Zelda the weapons break too quickly with no opportunity to repair them. In Horizon she needs to be able to climb properly. Anyways now that both have sequels in development we can do it all over again in a few years.
I bought a Wii U Just so I could play BOTW, I did not buy the PS4 to play horizon. If they both come out as exclusives for the next generation then I will have a much much harder decision on what to get.
