Legend of Zelda seems based more on exploring, while Horizon Zero Dawn is focusing on combat.

 

Maybe it's just me, but that's what I realized. Not just that, but I'm also glad Nintendo chose to not use realistic graphics for BotW. The new art style on the engine blew me away. Refreshing to see new styles as well. 

Video gaming forum veterans might find this art style refreshing (looks good to me also) but doubt how general gamers will react to it. You are stating exploration because there are lots of empty barren land in Zelda. On the contrary horizon shows big map which is packed with lots of things of interest. Their focus in the video was combat however while mounting it was shown there are lots of exploration. In the end this depends on point of view.

All reactions were great so far, game was easily most talked E3 game at social media and won E3, and actually become one of most hyped Nintendo games ever.

We saw just one small specific part of beginning of map, and some parts were not include even from that small part in order not spoil game, basically we didn't see villages, towns, NPCs, real dungeons...

Seemed to be received very positively this year's E3.

Zelda U? What's that?

Anyway I gather whatever I said before in this thread, I'm too lazy to check, but I said something, is probably still my opinion.

I don't have to play both games to know which one is the better one.

That is the freakiest thing ever.

My eyes keep trying to lock onto 1 set of eyes/mouth, and then notices the ones below/above it, and jumps up/down to them in a cycle.

Its near impossible to focus at his face/eyes.

I think Metacritically Horizon Zero dawn wins, the game and gameplay technically look more impressive than Zelda Breath of the Wild does.

Metacritic : HZ:D > Z-BoTW

Graphics : HZ:D > Z-BoTW

Sales : I think Zelda might sell more, depending on how successfull NX is.

I dont know about that. The thing that tablet can do in BOTW seem to offer some interesting ways of play.

I think Horizon can be a good game, but I fear it will be like Killzone in that it has great graphics, the gameplay is good, but not much variety.
