Playing A Game Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds PC

At least I was prepared for them, this time, and knew to focus hard on weak spots -- or just run the hell away.

At the end of the day, though, The Frozen Wilds is still "more of the same" ... "but smaller."

And while more Horizon certainly isn't bad - I had no trouble dumping hours upon hours into The Cut's objectives and collectibles - it simply doesn't measure up to the main game's high-points.

From a level-pacing perspective, I wish The Frozen Wilds fit more "alongside" the main game than "after" it. After Zero Dawn's thrilling main narrative, this can't help but feel like a side-story.

Better than: The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna
Not as good as: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Hearts of Stone
Next time, Aloy, please don't: add even more material types to an already overstuffed crafting inventory.

Progress: 100% completion
