I think that first part was supposed to be a shock, and show it’s not going to be like the older games.

Yea it was done so well with the lore, usually I just play the main story and call it a day, but hunting for the “wtf happened here” stories were just to good to pass up. It’s like it was this huge puzzle until it’s finally revealed.

The latest one that rebooted the franchise with a British VA, is really really good. You should give it a go, it’s cheap and on sale all the time.

Yea it was awesome, finding out how everything went to shit was so good and finding little stories of the past buried everywhere made the game that much better. Usually I skip a lot of that filler, because it’s usually just that, filler, but for some reason the filler in HZD didn’t feel like it and had me hunting for it, trying to piece together what had happened.

All you gotta do is go back to horizon. One of my favorite games…and bam neckbeards getting all butthurt that a woman is the main character and not running around with huge boobs and no clothing on. They did the same shit with the new tomb raider. They were pissed that croft didn’t have huge tits and a huge ass in tiny shorts and a crop top…and it was such a good game, that it also was a favorite of mine.

End of the day, it’s neckbeards and wanna be alphas trying to be relevant.
