9) Horizon Zero Dawn – 93 Quests
Horizon Zero Dawn is one title that has absolutely lived up to its hype. From its initial E3 tease back in 2015 to its eventual critical acclaim and subsequent superlative commercial success, the game has delivered on all fronts.
One of the most impressive aspects of its dynamic is the manner with which Horizon Zero Dawn strikes a happy medium between action and role playing. On the one hand, it feels every bit a balls to the wall action game, complete with thrilling set pieces and a wonderfully engaging science fiction narrative. Yet there’s also impressive depth to this open world game that gives it a density to rival large-scale role playing games.
There is definitely plenty of meat across Horizon’s story and open world activities to keep you amused. The game racks up a respectable 93 quests, counting all logged achievements. Notably, Horizon records all achievements except collectibles as “quests.” Therefore, this figure includes corrupted zones, Tallnecks, Bandit camps, Cauldrons, and the 22 weapon tutorials.
