Known journliast Jason Schrier believes single.player PlayStation exclusives may not release on PC in the future, wondering about the success of these releases
Horizon is just yet another open world slop. Not even robo dinos make it palatable. Even the latest god of war was just so brain dead boring, the story wasn’t enough to make me keep playing.
God of War bored me as well, but the Horizon games being SLOP?! I’m personally offended. They are carefully created masterpieces in my opinion.
The way they perfectly amp up the difficulty in proportion to your skill level. You can go anywhere in the world but it guides you perfectly to go where your skill fits. The fights are fun, you can choose to be stealthy or go all in Rambo style.
That first feeling of analyzing a new animal for the first time, planning your strategy ahead of the fight, what parts to attack etc. Then the feeling of jumping in and executing the fight with success. So satisfying.
I personally took on every single fight stealth wise because I love that style.
But anyway, what kind of games do you play that you think are good enough? Curious what your bar is set to.
Robot dinos are well made. I’m not disputing that. It’s the only reason I put up with it for 16h… But I got bored to death with the same open world formula.
As for where my bar is set? I enjoy games like red dead 2 or space marine 2 from recent memory. But my go to are mods and older RPGs, Gothic 2 is gold standard to me. Games like Rogue Trader from owlcats etc. I enjoy depth and hand crafted nature. Hence games like kingdom come rank high on my list for believable world building with memorable characters. I don’t recall a single name from my 16h with horrison…
God of war (the remake) did it well to keep focus on characters and story as opposed to “clutter” and massive open world filled with markers.
Oh no, what will I do without shitty AAA titles?
Horizon games were killer though. Last Of Us were great, I hear.

Last of Us Part 1 and 2 are genuine masterpieces. Highly recommend!
Never played 2 but 1 is the most over hyped game in existence. The gameplay is mid as fuck and the “OMG story” is just B movie horror at best.
We’ll have to agree to disagree on that one friend.
