this is why the open world of breath of the wild is special.

Keep in mind that both game just came out so not a lot of people have experienced both to even make that "biased opinion". Clearly a lot of people think Zelda is special, same with Horizon.

But I don't think Horizon is "special" the setting and theme is unqiue in the sense that you're hunting robot animals, but besides that the game play is just a well polished open world game. Same goes for other games like The Witcher, or Red Dead Redemption. or Fallout 4, or Metal Gear Solid V or whatever. Now I haven't played it myself but I have watched a few hours of let's play videos, and I just can't figure out why this is so much higher rated than all of the other games in that category. It appears to me that Zelda is only special because it's a Zelda game that does these things just as well as these other games.

It's the little things that add up to a great game. Like if you drop a piece of meat on a hot surface it'll cook itself. Just small shit like that that make up a great game.

I've played a bunch of open world games and I can safely say that this is the best one. Hands down.
