Really struggling to care about this one even though it feels like I should.

They mention crafting and monster hunting being a key component of the game. :) so yeah it's everything like monster hunter. Plus very tactical combat. Hopefully it's good.

I must be an in the closet misogynist, but I just can't get behind the idea of female lead in this type of game. Game looks pretty good though...

Hmm... why is this $60 on Prime? Is the Prime discount only applied when it ships and you're charged. Been a while since ordering a physical game.

Well, maybe this doesn't have Prime Savings? Nier shows up correctly as $47

Ordered with Prime and it got the discount when I checked out. This is one game I am really on the fence about canceling since not sure if it will live up to expectations... prime discount is the only reason i per-ordered.

First off, fuck you filthy pre-order bastards. Don't give them money pre-release...you know this.

If the story goes that there is a tribe of....whatever....where the men and women are hunters & warriors, I think it's fine.

It's the damsel in -distress turned super bad ass heroine- stuff that I'm not really a fan of. Since I'm ok with the latter when it's a male, I guess I'm a misogynist too. ;)

You aren't wrong. The only reason I was considering the pre-order was b/c of Prime Savings. Every other game that I've clicked on shows it except for this. Maybe I can jump on Live Chat and ask wtf is up.

You will get the prime savings when you also order within 2 weeks after launch. Also, Bandwagon, they get no money up front when we preorder on Amazon. We only get charged when it ships, and have plenty of time to cancel.

A day 1 purchase is still putting power in the hands of the marketers more than the game designers.

That Hello Games! Space mining game is the last day 1 purchase I'll ever make.

If horizon has good reviews after a week, I'll pick it up.

I'm holding off because this is one of like 5 games that has to be worth playing enough for me to buy a PS4 :p Need to wait for all of them to hit.

i only have 3 rules for a female protagonist in any game, its also the same rules i think any guy should use for dating

1. she must be hot, and never gain more than 15 lbs
2. she must not get a dick at any time, surgically or magically
3. there will be no other dicks in close proximity to the female

tomb raider and dishonored 2 followed those 3 rules, I enjoyed both of them and expect the same from Horizon Zero Dawn

re: amazon prime, it doesn't show up until the very last page of checkout nowadays right before you place your order. it shows up as a $x discount.

4. The voice sounds must not be over-the-top cringe level.

Example - 90% of female characters from league of legends. Every time they get hit, it sounds like a care bear princess inserting her first tampon.

Good - Illaoi, Quinn, Kindred

Bad - Lux, Lulu

Aside from her stupid SJW "feminist" politics and her brother being the biggest retard alive, she's a pretty decent VA. I thought she did a really good job in Life Is Strange, and she sounds fine in the promo videos for this game.

Who gives a fuck what she thinks? She isn't writing the game is she?

I mean not really. It's really easy to take a game back if the day one reviews are shit. I do it with Best Buy all the time. Most recently with Last Guardian
