As a result, these areas are not fully representative of actual geographical locations, and in-game lore changes the purposes of some sites given Horizon's backstory covers events up through the mid-2060s. While the sites featured in Horizon Forbidden West and Zero Dawn do a great job of recreating the real world, physical distances have been shortened to make their maps traversable. These real-world features help enhance the series' lore about the world's end in the 21st Century, and exploring them brings players a sense of wonder as they traverse through ruins reclaimed by nature. Situated throughout the West and Southwestern United States, both games encompass broad geographical areas with well-known mountains, national parks, historical landmarks, rivers, and cities - down to individual streets. Horizon Zero Dawn might not ever fully come true, but it does remind us that humanity is only alive as long as the Earth is, too.Horizon Forbidden West and its predecessor Zero Dawn are known for their graphics, story, and red-headed protagonist Aloy, yet one aspect that can be overlooked is their featured locations.
In a message to NBC News, the leader of the submarine project said that while these devices could curb emissions, "to stop global warming we still have to reduce carbon emissions throughout the world." This is true of these two projects as well as hundreds of others in development right now scientific advancements may help us counteract the negative effects that humanity has had on the environment, but they cannot fully replace other major changes, like the switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy. And even then, it doesn't work as well as they expected.
Society does manage to reform after the collapse of civilization, but only due to the scientists who worked tirelessly to make it happen. Horizon Zero Dawn provides a cautiously optimistic view of life on Earth with a healthy dose of warnings sprinkled in. These days, the line between fact and fiction seems to be becoming more and more blurred, as the scientific inventions designed to combat climate change are starting to look awfully familiar - and for fans of Horizon Zero Dawn, awfully ominous. You might come across the sidewalk in London, which turns kinetic energy into electricity, or the plant walls on Mexico City's highways. Just a quick Google search will provide dozens of examples of innovative technology created to generate green energy or help clean the planet. The major focus of their research is often the most pressing long-term danger humanity is staring down every day: climate change. Meanwhile, scientists have been working for years to save us from exactly the types of crises these games predict. The specific moral you're supposed to glean from the fall of society differs from game to game, but it almost always pertains to drastic circumstances designed to show off the best and the worst of humanity. Dystopian games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Fallout, and Deux Ex have been widely successful over the years, drawing us into their stories with bleak warnings about the folly of man. The worlds of science and video games are both extremely concerned with the fate of humanity.
