Guess who just got this game!
It's downloading just now! I decided to get it and I can't wait.
I might stay away from pictures people are taking just to avoid anything but once I'm further in the game I'll look at them.
Awesome.
I don't think you are going to regret it. You liked The Witcher 3, you will surely like Horizon too. Especially since the setting and game world is even more unique and beautiful, storytelling is generally better and more focused and the combat with the mechanic creatures is way more fun and rewarding than the Witcher 3 combat, which is imo the weakest part of that game.
By the way, I took down my first Thunderjaw earlier today!
I felt so badass afterwards. What a fight... I had been carefully avoiding them (for 55 hours of playtime), because they look absolutely terrifying, are armed to their teeth, super fast and strong. When I finally had to obtain a Thunderjaw heart to save a little girl I had no other choice though.
Quickly after that I defeated a corrupted one for another sidequest, lol, which are even more terrifying and damage sponges. The fight was super intense and lasted for a good 20 minutes. But I did it!
