Playstation 4's new "Killer App" If you own one you owe it to yourself to play this game
Dont often get review codes but for some reason GG and Sony were very loose and eager to do so and i can see why. The game is maybe the most technically achieving console production i have ever seen, its not only gorgeous but runs great on a standard PS4. I am also a pc gamer and let me tell you this game from a visual standpoint blew me away. Many compare this to far cry, some go as far to call it a reskin of such and while sure certain aspects that are found if FC and other open world games can also be found here some of the mechanics or gameplay functionalities feel evolved, smarter and more intuitive. This game handles those similar functionalities faster, smarter and more enjoyable due to it. Not many open worlds do side quests right, i assume is difficult to strike a good balance without overwhelming the player, some devs add stuff in the game for the sake of more things to do but dont put much tlc into such thus the content sometimes ends up feeling dull and repetitive. Zero Dawn does side quests in a way where it feels meaningful and while icons still scatter about the map i felt more inclined to do most of it because many were or felt dynamic in a sense and came into play as far as the main mission is concerned. NPCS notice if you "did or didnt do the thing" and the dialogue will reflect it. I think my review is not very relevant due to you being able to watch tons of videos and proper reviews already in the wild so i will wrap this up, if you own a PS4 you owe it to yourself to play this game. Forget to mention, the story .. I was content with having a gorgeous open world game with great combat and atmosphere, i didnt expect the story to be good, expected average at best and the story ended up being one of this games strong suits. Wont spoil the story BUT the game does something else thats rare, a proper ending with closure while still opening the door just wide enough for a second installment. The Story is solid, Good Voice acting and Great writing are main contributors to why i found myself getting goosebumps on several occasions. I dont wish for dlc often BUT i want more. Currently this is PS4' S "killer app" I ended up buying a copy off of here because they earned my money and will be covering this game and feel like i can be completely transparent in terms of not being biased due to getting a free version Feel free to ask me anything, More than happy to fill you in. i have at least 40 hours into this game and i Adore it. Read the comment bellow for more details about the side missions, in depth critique and how this game handles open world tropes if you wish
