> Horizon
Purely personal opinion - I played about ten hours of the first Horizon and I was blown away by then graphics. I liked the story and the characters and the world design.
The actual gameplay and how it was connected to the world, unfortunately, I found boring and ultimately I decided to stop playing. I had the feeling of being here before from every other open world RPG I've played in the last 15 years or so and I didn't feel like anything new was added beyond a few incremental tweaks. I didn't feel driven to explore the world and I felt it was just going to be filled with samey fetch quests and dungeons.
