Literally nobody was complaining about how Aloy looked in the remaster. 1 incel complained about her “beard” from the tech demos for the PS5 version of FW, but there’s been zero noise about how she looks in this re-release. People were complaining that it didn’t need a remaster, considering more people play PS4 than PS5 and the PS4 version still looks fantastic.
The templated auto face animations during dialogue along with the low enthusiasm VO from half of the cast is really the only factor that keeps OG horizon from being perfect.
It’s difficult to say. One of my least favorite mechanics in racing games is rubber banding. Another is rewarding people in last place with a powerup and punishing people in first for being good at the game (looking at you, every single Mario Kart title ever). That being said, there are games without these mechanics and they wind up feeling lifeless, such as Motorstorm and GTA Online races. So the trick to enjoying racing games I’ve found is to play games that only minimally rely on rubber banding, and without blue shell tier powerups, or racing games that deprioritize ranks in favor of adding tons of personality to the experience.
Racing games that truly don’t offend me: -Crash Team Racing -Star Wars Episode 1 Racer -Forza Motorsport 2 -Burnout Paradise
