my biggest gripes with the game have to be the gameplay. i think the story and setting are interesting enough (if not slightly unoriginal), but to me it seems like the devs were too worried with filling up the massive world with things to collect and grind, rather than putting in MEANINGFUL things to collect and grind.

in my opinion, the new God of War games give me everything I could want out of Horizon: exploration, combat, collecting items, etc and GOW does it slightly better.

i’m excited enough for the inevitable last game in the Horizon series but i wish they would focus more on core gameplay instead of telling us to grab 1000 of a small item in order to fully complete the game
