Nobody talks about this.

Don't get me wrong, the visuals are pretty good. Here is the problem:

The story is total garbage. Dialogs are top trash, hit skip button on all of them cause I can't be bothered with another ol story about outcast who becomes hero. The story and dialogs cater to the same crowd who find Uncharted 4 story amazing (no comments).

The most important part of the game - combat. Now, if you release an action RPG and you have such excellence as Bloodborne on the market, you better get this shyt right. Not in this case. Melee attacks and its animations are trash. Unsatisfying as fukk. Also, they only bothered to make great animation for robots. For humans its on some Morrowind status.

The game repetitive as fukk. Combine it with subpar combat and it is a recipe for disaster, aka the game becomes trash bin status pretty fast. Walk into area with a set of robots/humans, get a dose of unsatisfying combat, then run to another area for 2 min, listen to trash dialogs in-between. Rinse and repeat.

The game has no atmosphere and feels artificial. Its like developers tryharded to come up with something unique.

The elephant in the room has spoken: "Horizon: Zero Dawn is a 5.5/10 game"

it is super repetitive, no memorable characters, the recently popular huge unnecessary world traveling, non intuitive inventory system...
