An in-depth review/critique/analysis of Guerrilla Games' "Horizon: Zero Dawn" (2017), including its DLC expansion "The Frozen Wilds." This game has a lot of fun ideas and strong gameplay elements, coupled with a uniquely interesting setting and story, which is unfortunately in service of a somewhat boring and lackluster open-world design that feels lacking in depth and complexity compared to everything else the game has to offer.
