I never finishedHorizon Zero Dawn, and I didnt playHorizon Forbidden West.
Thats not to say these are necessarilybadgames.
While I was invested in the story, the gameplay fell flat for me.
I didnt particularly enjoy combat, or running around the world, or even the games variety in biomes.
Thats kind of what makes Horizon an ideal candidate for amovie adaptation.
Light of Motiram is a dead ringer for Sony’s open world robot dinosaur adventure.
It won Outstanding Achievement in Story at the DICE Awards.
Its themes, too, are still relevant eight years after the game was launched perhaps even more so.
We live in a world ruled by corporate interests and militarism.
We also live in a world thats being ravaged by climate change and worsening natural disasters.
Corporate interests, generally, enable climate change.
We see that kind of behaviour every day already.
Horizon makes me think about how the world is as dangerous as it is beautiful and deserving of preservation.
Your favorite classic PlayStation game probably doesn’t count as a “deep cut”.
Horizon Zero Dawns story works on its own, and it doesnt need expansion.
If done right, Horizon already has all the ingredients of a great movie adaptation.
All Sony has to do is pull it off.
Id say it cant bethathard, but weve seen so many failures already.
I just hope Horizon wont be another of them.
