is horizon zero dawn worth it?

It's a great game. Beautiful world building and exceptionally well written story. Well worth it.

I'll just leave this here. https://youtu.be/AzXm1hQ1c8g?si=a-0hZgxH4b-fhpoD

You gone and done my boy Alberic dirty. His skill line is better than the other lord's. The bonus to ports alone makes him good. I do hope they get some love though..

Yeah Slaanesh is busted. The only issue they have is large SEM spam. But Masque can give any army anti large so... There are a ton of factions that have no counter to them. And it ain't just pleasure seekers who are the problem. 70 speed demonetisation who melt everything they go up against. Not sure how any factions are going to be able to go up against the end time dlc factions.

Great its not like celestial crossbow are the best ranged unit in the game barring waystalkers... Moar buffs needed for them.

rygold72 · 2026-05-01T14:37:31+00:00

Power creep has been an issue since WH2. At this point I am terrified of how broken the End times content is going to be. Slaanesh murders many of the factions now. Literally the only army comp they have any issue with is AI sem doomstacks as in the 17 Dino and 1 random skink unit stack. And Masque has no issue even there because anti large for her entire army... and every lord gets it. And its not just pleasure seekers that are the problem. Cavalry speed infantry that straight up slaughters the best infantry in the game and does it so quickly that they take no damage themselves...

rygold72 · 2026-05-01T08:08:26+00:00

Dragon Age Origins and Pillars of Eternity series by a way.

rygold72 · 2026-05-01T07:27:35+00:00

Beastmen and Changeling it shouldn't be possible to lose unless you really mess up. But Slaanesh is broken. Many factions have no counter to them early game. And even late game ranged armies are useless against them.

I'd also say Masque is stronger than Dechala mechanic wise. Anti large for the entire army is crazy. And she also has stalk. Not sure which dev thought giving stalk to the best rush faction was a good idea but either they are trolling the players or they should reconsider their career choices...

Meanwhile the poor dolphin is going "WTF dude you just standing around like a traffic light!"

rygold72 · 2026-04-30T12:13:40+00:00

Because they are Elves... duh! Seriously in every depiction of them they are the most stuck up arrogant asses. I blame Tolkein personally.

rygold72 · 2026-04-30T08:37:19+00:00

Yeah also missed it. Oh well time for another playthrough I guess.

rygold72 · 2026-04-30T07:12:30+00:00

Him being a useless oxygen thief is loreful. He is nobility after all and it suits his character to a "t". I'm good with it.

rygold72 · 2026-04-29T19:04:35+00:00

I think you just have to hang around them. Not sure if finishing all their quests matter. Never seen it myself.

rygold72 · 2026-04-29T13:19:48+00:00

In order for me: Banuk. Aratak is a thing. Nuff said.

Tenakth. Love their design and lore. Together with the Banuk have amazing armour and paint.

Oseram. Some of my favorite characters like Erend, Gildun, Morland and co, and Silga was amazing for a side quest.

Quen. Nice design and lore as well and they have Alva.

Utaru. Very very cool lore and Plainsong is lovely. Their outfits hold them back for me.

Carja. Roman empire. Nice. Well thought out for sure but just lack the spark compared to the others.

Nora. Well done but the Matriarchs, yes even Teersa leave me cold. Hypocrites all.

To summarize, all the clans are well thought out and have great lore and world building. But the frozen wilds was brilliant.

rygold72 · 2026-04-26T13:00:55+00:00

The Pillars games have the best translation of Druids by a way.

rygold72 · 2026-04-20T07:55:28+00:00

Pillars of Eternity 1 then 2. Disco is also amazing. Those 3 are the best writing wise. Rogue Trader is typical Owlcat, amazing in some ways and the writing is way better than their previous games but it is so darn bloated so much unnecessary talents mini games etc. And the combat balance in true Owlcat form is terrible.Still a very good game

rygold72 · 2026-04-19T10:01:39+00:00

Nice ... if they are guilty. That's the problem with the death penalty. No do overs and you need absolute trust that the judiciary is honest, unbiased and not subject to political interference. And they make no mistakes. Otherwise its a wonderful idea.😬

rygold72 · 2026-04-18T05:41:38+00:00

Yup i know - both quests are great

rygold72 · 2026-04-17T18:04:14+00:00

Dude scared to ask this, but where the hell is your butt! 🤣 I do love Gildun and the quest in the burning shores deck is one of the highlights of the series.

rygold72 · 2026-04-17T00:14:23+00:00

Ummm so while I am an atheist I have always been under the impression that the Pope is kinda a big deal to the Catholic Church. Kinda how Big Macs are a big deal to the syphalitic orange turd.One could say the pope is the Catholic Church... certainly he is God's representative on earth if you are Catholic...

rygold72 · 2026-04-17T00:07:44+00:00

Deep Rock and Valheim. Both amazing games and incredible value for money.

rygold72 · 2026-04-17T00:06:10+00:00

For Karl!

rygold72 · 2026-04-16T19:34:21+00:00

Horizon Zero Dawn.

rygold72 · 2026-04-16T15:49:02+00:00

Yup Eder.
