    Horizon is absolutely awesome and the combat is the best part and like you said it never gets old the dificlty doesn't rely on how high a level you are or how good your stuff is but rest's in your knolage of how to take each machine down

    This is the remaster no one needs by I’ll absolutely buy.
    Glad to see some creators still showing appreciation for this game.
    Glad to see attention given to mo-cap.
    One of the most compelling stories I’ve played in gaming. If the remaster will get more people to try, hopefully they come to know some of the awe inspiring first discoveries this game just keeps delivering.
    This first title delivers the better plot/story experience of the two installments, IMHO. I enjoyed the gameplay loop/mechanics of Forbidden West a little more, but it just couldn’t recall the same magic as Zero Dawn did.

    Horizon is what got me into high difficulty games and is the only game I’ve ever enjoyed the combat in as much as everything, except maybe Ghost of Tsushima.
    Horizon Forbidden West was even better I LOVE the hardest difficulty it reveals how beautiful the mechanics are.

The world-building is so intriguing, rich, and just forever amazes me. The combat is fantastic and offers so many possibilities of what you can play with. I'm so excited about the remaster and improved graphics. I'm buying it as soon as it's released. :)

    I"m about 30 hours in this game (on PC) and I am very pleasantly surprised. It is so hard for me to find a good open world RPG as Witcher 3 seems to have set the gold standard for all other games to wish they could be as good as. So far my favorite OWPRGs are Witcher 3, RDR2, Horizon Dawn, Fallout New Vegas and Ghost of Tsushima.

    I like it for its animation. For me Zero Dawn looks better than its successor, Forbidden West. Zero Dawn looks more real. Forbidden West looks more like a cartoon. I played Zero Dawn on a PS4 Slim, PS4 Pro, PS5, and PC. I played Forbidden West on a PS5 and PC. On the consoles Forbidden West may look better because the colors pop. It is even better on a PC. But Zero Dawn on a PC looks more real. It is almost a different game than on consoles. I've uploaded an example "Horizon Zero Dawn - Widest FOV" showing what it looks like under different lighting conditions.
