11/27/2023 0 Comments Horizon call of the mountain reviewWhen I first started playing Horizon: Call of the Mountain, I expected not to love it, not because I’m not a fan of the universe that Guerrilla Games created and not because I didn’t want to experience its post-apocalyptic future in VR, but because I suffer from severe motion sickness and I thought I wouldn’t be able to play the game for long enough to appreciate. Even though Horizon: Call of the Mountain has a million different mechanics to master and remember, it delivers a memorable game experience and, dare I say, is rather addictive.Īnd that’s precisely what happened when my mom started playing Horizon: Call of the Mountain for the first time. However, something special happens when you introduce VR to someone who does not play games, yet they fall in love with the game experience. Many of the mechanical roadblocks that stop a game from being accessible to those who don’t often play games just don’t apply to them or even really stand out just because of how familiar they are with the mechanics required. When you take someone who plays games every single day, getting a great review from them is easy. Before I even get into the review, I will tell you why this game, in particular, is magic. I’ve reviewed other PSVR 2 games here at NAG, but I’ve not reviewed anything on the same level as Horizon: Call of the Mountain. Since that day, I’ve been looking to recapture that immersive sense of playing a game and being a part of it, precisely what the PSVR 2 brings into my life and home. I still have vivid memories of being a child and having my dad take me to some or other 4D experience where the wind was blown on you, and your chair would move so that it felt like you were riding a rollercoaster when in reality you were just at an activation in the middle of a Magic Kingdom. I remember going from TV games like Circus Charlie to playing Spyro the Dragon on my PlayStation 1 to living in a world where Aloy has visible facial hair when playing Horizon Forbidden West on my PlayStation 5.īut throughout this improvement and all these changes, the one thing that’s managed to creep under my skin and captive me, unlike anything else, continues to be improvements to VR. Growing up as a 90s kid, I’ve been around for some of the most significant leaps forward that the video game industry has seen.
