OMG I figured it out! I know why it felt weird to me when people kept comparing this to Zelda and now I know why! This is fucking Shadows of Mordor/Batman series with a bigger map after watching the game play! BotW is not even the same style of game!

 

edit: obviously without the melee parts, I'm talking about the ARPG elements.

Yeah and this worries me. Gameplay seems to follow the mold of open world games these days, by the numbers. The games you mentioned are good examples, Id add Far Cry and Ass Creed. But I'm so burned out on this formula, could not finish Far Cry 4, Mad Max, Far Cry Primal, or Just Cause. The "huge map, collect a ton of stuff then climg this tall thing to unlock the next area" mechanic is tired. Apparently here you climb really tall robot dinosaurs. Mordors hook was the LotR license, and Nemesis system. Idk if Horizon has any hooks like that.
