10 Awkward Moments In Awesome Recent Video Games
5. Character Animations From Horizon Zero Dawn
With its vast open world, deep lore, and a compelling heroine, Aloy, this is a PS4 exclusive that can easily stand toe to toe with the best of them.
One area where the game falls painfully short, however, is the facial animations.
While the graphics are quite nice during gameplay, whenever Aloy stops to talk to someone, their eyes have a rather glassy, expressionless look, and their mouth can even move in a way that looks more at home on the SEGA Dreamcast.
And when we have games like Uncharted 4 and God of War on the same system with some of the most realistic graphics, on or off the PS4, it makes this all the more head scratching.
Luckily, not all of these interactions are necessary to beat the final boss, and many of the side quests can sometimes feel redundant anyway, so it doesn't take away too much from the experience.
But if you're looking to one-hundred percent the game, get ready to watch a lot of what looks like you and your childhood friends playing with figurines that you played "make believe" with.
