I hope other open-world games learn from this. Edit: I see somebody mention BOTW vs. Horizon Zero Dawn. I love Horizon, but the fact that BOTW actually had a dynamic physics system makes it feel more modern to me than Horizon does, despite how good Horizon looks. One still feels like the future of open world games whereas the other feels like a cinematic experience from the 2010's. The prior is going to age and has already aged better than the latter, for me. |
Horizon zero dawn has technically impressive visuals, but I just find it so visually unappealing. It reminds me of a michael bay movie, constantly going for maximum visually impact to the point where it just starts to become visual noise.
