Thinking of...

So I'm thinking of buying either Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, or Horizon: Zero Dawn. I don't have a lot of money, so I can really only buy one (paying $60 for a video game is killing me.) The issue is, I really want both of them. I can't decide, but I'm leaning slightly towards Breath of the Wild, simply because I tend to beat video games in no time at all, and I'm afraid Horizon: Zero Dawn might be one of those "beat-in-a-few-days" types of games, at least for me, anyway. At least with Breath of the Wild I can't exactly beat it right away, with how much there is to do. Plus I enjoy exploring and absorbing the true RPG/open world experience that is this new installment, so there's that. I just don't really know which one to choose, though. I've waited a long time for both games.

I would go with Breath of the Wild. I watched my bf play the other one and I got bored, and so did he.

Oops, got the game wrong!

I would say Breath of the wild, only because Link is your avatar. Although it defiantly looks like great game!

Breath of the Wild! Not being bias (looking at my avatar) but Zelda games are always a worthy buy

Horizon: Zero Dawn looks kinda cool but Zelda: Breath of the Wild looks to be something quite special.

Thanks for the feedback, guys! I'll probably go with Breath of the Wild, not sure yet. Why must games I want release around the same time? *sigh*

I would watch some play through videos, obviously not long enough to spoil the games but at least to let you get a little taste of how the game is.

Maybe you get lucky and both sites get added before you are forced to choose?
Both games look great imo, personally I'd get Horizon for the pure reason of being something new.
