It was fun. Gameplay was alright but nothing I wish I could experience again or want to replay.

I had little interest in the story. Aloy felt too generic hero to me. I was hoping she would be more like someone socially awkward having lived a life of exile with limited human interaction (like a young Ashly Burch kind of character).

It's a shame they have a female protagonist in a AAA game and she feels like every other protagonist with nothing really unique aside from the insane person who has to program her hair.

Immediately prior to trying this game, I had been playing a stealthy bow user in Skyrim which seemed to do it better. For a game that seemed focused on bow combat, I was flabbergasted the arrows had no physics! They would shoot in a straight line without drop.

For some reason that totally killed the game for me.
