Horizon: Zero Dawn is an open world game that retails for $60. One has to wonder if that is a fair price.

The most glaring omission in this game is an online multiplayer component. This shortcoming is not a consequence of a lack of development time, but a conscious decision by Guerilla Games that they didn't even want to implement one. That things can be very different has been demonstrated by Grand Theft Auto V, which also retailed for $60, but had robust online multiplayer modes in addition to all of its singleplayer content.

Horizon: Zero Dawn also lacks a character editor, like it can be found in Skyrim, or at least the option to play as the gender you want. Players aren't provided with a choice. Speaking only for myself here, I don't like female characters.

The game focuses on its singleplayer element, but unfortunately the scope of its world, story and lore is limited. Unlike Final Fantasy XV, there was apparently never a need to produce a movie to go along with the game.

Without a doubt, a lot of corners were cut during the development process of Horizon: Zero Dawn. So I pose the question: Charging $60 for all of this, is that really a fair price?

Quality over Quanity. If the game is good than $60 is just fine. It's a little to early to say if corners were cut in Hozizon since it's not out yet, but from what I've seen and heard seems like it's got a great crafting system and large map, and deverse foes to tackle, along with a good story naritive, and gameplay.

Some examples as of late below:

++ Overwatch: Solid Deep MP, no SP (worth $60)

- Evolve: No SP, Shallow MP (not worth $60)

- Street figter No SP, Shallow MP, No Arcade Mode (not worth $60)

-- The Order 1886: Bad Bad AI, example of to short,  (NOT worth $60 just about a rent)

++Inside: Perfect game play, animation, story, level design, not a long game but does'nt matter cuz it's almost perfect. (worth $60 even though it was $20)

It's all relative.

As far as playing a female protagonist, ya that's just you most don't give a shit, unless your under 10 years old then you really should'nt be playing this game anyway.

$60 is fine for Horizon, that's the standard price, and thank god, otherwise we would be spending $100 dollars for open world games like the Witcher

Just curious..would you happen to be a millennial?
