HZD is pretty special. The story holds it together, but really exploring the world and it's past, and fighting metal dinosaurs is brilliant. It's genuinely interesting to go from not knowing anything, to discovering what happened to humanity 1000 years ago. Combat, crafting and exploring are all excellent and make a really memorable experience. I played the PS4 version first, then the PC port. I guess it goes without saying, but it's 10x better on PC. It looks better, and the controls are good. A game about precision aiming with a bow and arrow doesn't belong on a console.
