Lauren plays Horizon Zero Dawn #20: Meeting King Avad + Robbing the Rich
This WOULD have gone up yesterday but I had a migraine, whoops. I'll do my best from here. Of course, after all that, we didn't actually run into any datapoints that prompted discussion of our modern time! However ... my complaint was that I didn't have enough investment in characters in Aloy's time, and this week took care of that. I love Azad, I love Marad, and I love Erend even more than I did before. I love that you can feel there's a story behind them and that these people know each other. It's really well-done. The writing skills I've praised in other parts of the game are really coming out here.
