In my opinion,Horizon Zero Dawnis one of the best PlayStation 4 titles of recent times. It’s storyline, the narrative, and the immersive adventuring had me personally captivated and inspired by Alloy’s strength and background for a very long time, but it seems like I’m not the only one that felt this way.
A post has cropped up over on my favorite go-to place for all things weird and/or interesting, and that’s Reddit. Going by the username ofu/Rey1000, we are shown how much someone’s love for a video game can go in influencing their art.According to the post, this was Rey1000 first attempt in sculpture class where they created a clay model of Alloy and a Watcher, which both combined, took 12 weeks to complete. Now that’s what you call dedication in class.
Rey1000 expressed howHorizon Zero dawninspired them and how the title made them feel:
Hi guys, This is my first sculpture I worked on in Gnomon School of VFX and Games. First time sculpting. The last clay sculpture was an ear. I was lucky to have a great teacher. The medium is medium NSP clay so it was a big challenge to sculpt hard surface. I took inspiration from a bunch of concept armor and put my own spin onto it. I love HZD. The game made me feel like a kid again with exploring and fighting big mecha dino in a foreign wasteland. I cant' wait for the sequel coming. Thanks, guys.
Many of the 356 comments were all very supportive of their work, if not surprised it was the posters first time sculpting:
It’s very easy to see how and whyHorizon Zero Dawnis so successful and due to this success,Guerilla Games is in the process of moving to a new 5-floor officeand also looking to bring in more employees. If this doesn’t scream a sequel I don’t know what does. I say bring it on!
