EDIT: Congrats to the winners! I've left a reply to your winning comment below. So many great favorite moments! Winner will be randomly drawn 22 February, needed a little more time because there were so many more than I anticipated. Rules below: I'm giving away one collector's edition of Horizon Forbidden West and one standard digital edition. To enter the drawing, all you have to do is: Give the video a like and comment below with your favorite moment in Horizon Zero Dawn, why you loved the game so much, or your favorite thing (could be a character, machine, plot line, etc). If you also gave a supportive or positive comment on my first playthrough of HZD before 18 February, you'll get another entry for the collector's edition. Yes, my friends and I will literally go through the comment section of each of the 25 uploads and count them as extra entries in the drawing. Note, for the collector's edition, you have to reside in the continuous United States due to shipping/tariffs etc. For the standard edition, it will be a code and can be sent worldwide so everyone has an equal chance. The code will be a US version though, I'm not sure if that matters. Thanks again for all of your support! ❤ P.S. If you already own the standard edition of the game and win the collector's edition, consider spreading the awesomeness of this game by giving the extra code to someone else in the community :)

My favourite moment in first game has to be the two (almost) back-to-back scenes where Gen Herres and Dr Sobeck are explaining what operation Enduring Victory and project Zero Dawn are really about. Also Herres himself was such a well wrote character, a bit underapriciated imo ;)

HZD is my next favourite game behind Ghost of Tsushima. My favorite scene, scenes, sorry for cheating, is everytime you return to Rost's grave after a big event. No matter how big a machine Aloy took down, or how many enemies she killed, she would become a little girl again and tell her "dad" all about it. Those got me everytime. AND the tender moment she had with Eliabet. When she found her body and her focus showed her face behind the helmet, like mother like daughter. Looking forward to continue watching your adventures with Aloy, and our adventures with you!

My favorite moment has got to be at the end of HZD when Aloy finds Elisabet Sobeck’s remains. It was a touching scene a kind of a tear jerker. 🥲 Keep up the awesome videos, Sarah! 🙌🏻 And wow, the Regalla Edition is intense. 😳

HZD was my first real video game playthrough. I've always been terrible at games, so I never make it through them. It took me almost 2 years, but I love this game so much that I finally finished it last Sunday, just in time for Forbidden West (I would watch your videos everytime I finished a section). My favorite part is probably just that there are so many ways to play. I've never been good at combat, so I love that I can hide in the grass, put a bunch of traps down, and then snipe every enemy. If I had to choose a specific moment, probably the revelation of Zero Dawn. That whole scene was amazing.

Well done, nice white gloves! My favorite HZD aspect were the cauldrons and the ability/motivation to override new machines.

I don't know what was my favorite moment from HZD because there are alot but maybe when sylens rescued Aloy from the arena that was awesome 😎. And I love the game because the graphics and the story. And Aloy is such an interesting character. And my favorite machine is the thunder jaw it is really cool. Nice unboxing and keep up the good work

I dont even know which one was my favorite! Mostly the scenes between Sylens and Aloy were sometimes funny to be since I could relate to them because of siblings. But riding machines was great too!

Favorite moment was the last scene in HZD... I had a tear in my eye just like you did

My fave moment is entering the desert section. I play open world games without trying to use the map because i find it more fun to feel like i’m exploring and don’t know where i’m going or where the boundaries are, and reaching that part where the map opened up was really exciting.

My favorite moment is when Aloy sees the holograms of general Harris and Elizabeth Sobek about the Faro Plague and project Zero Dawn. I loved this game so much for the story, the machines and the beautiful environments.

My favourite moment from HZD was the proving because it sets the tone for the game, it expanded the world and how we see it.

Yay, something I can watch while waiting for my copy to arrive! This weekend is a dangerous time for me, for the web is dark and full of spoilers.

My favorite moment from HZD is Aloy as a kid and how you were reacting to those parts in the play through.

With the white gloves, it turned into an upscale auction. 😂 Thank you for sharing the unboxing experience with us Sarah. Enjoy the game!!!

My favorite part is when aloy fought helis and the behemoth & the hades death bringer. Also when they gathered in meridian for the last battle. 👌🏻

Thank you for sharing this moment! The artbook and diorama figures were cool!

My favorite moment is just the simple fact that you can go back to rost and talk to him whenever. Just the solace you get going back home with the beautiful music playing is just wonderful. I’m just sad we didn’t get to see more of him 😭. I just recently started playing HZD so imma wait on forbidden west and have been watching your play through of HZD as I’m playing my self 😊

My favorite moment was the beginning how she grew up and exceeded everyone’s expectations

My favourite scene has to be when Aloy is about to be destroyed in the massacre after the Proving..and Rost shows up and breaks his oath to intervene, gives his life in the end for her to live...how can you beat that

I know very exactly what my favorite moment was. The two cut-scenes when Aloy enters the All Mother Mountain and then when she comes back and the Nora tribe see her now as an anointed. That was so beautiful... Even better than the very ending of the game..... Thank you Sarah for your passion and we all look forward for the HFW letsplays....

My favorite thing about the first game is the actual world that you get to explore. There's so much to discover and to look at. I can't tell you how much time I spent in Photo Mode just trying to find the best screenshots from sunsets to standing on the highest structure looking down at the world below. It's massive! Can't wait to explore again in the new game.

My favorite part of Horizon Zero Dawn is climbing up the tall neck for the first time, catching a glimpse of the entire world and slow motion jumping down in all epic ness, and just being to experience the journey Aloy has been through as a tough, resilient character

Loving the look.🥰 Your hair is amazing and with the focus on your ear beautiful. Thx for sharing this with us. You’re on point with the montages. Enjoyed the sound affects and the music. Great job.😃

Fave moment in HZD, definitely the arena battle with the corrupted Behemoth and Aloy started out without her gear. The part when your gear falls and everything is covered in smoke and dust, and when everything clears up, Aloy with all her gear is ready to fight.

My favorite moment in zero dawn is the point when Aloy helps the entire village and starts to be seen as a hero or 'the Chosen one' I love how she went from being a shunned outcast to the hero that saved the world.

There are a bunch of moments from HZD which are among the top tier list of my fav moments. From aloy as child deciding that she wants to train & win the proving after bram hits her, to Rost's death, to discovery of the whole backstory project zero dawn. But maybe my fav thing about the game is the Aloy Score. I can't put it in words how much i love the score, its so good.

My friend has this edition. I've always wanted the Thunderjaw one from 2017 and an Aloy statue. Love that cinematic at the end, wow.

Favorite moment in HZD is when Sylens saves Aloy, that plus the soundtrack. Thanks for the video Sarah! Got a Regalla myself too, but other than digging out the codes so I could download and play, haven't really touched the physical swag.

My favorite moment in Horizon Zero Dawn was that scene after Aloy exits the door of The All-mothers Womb Everyone started bowing and calling her the Anointed. Immediately she pulled them up on their feet and shouted "First you shun me, now this?!" "I will NOT be worshipped! Im not your 'Anointed'! " It was such a powerful scene to me I legitimately started tearing up watching your stream and whenever I go back to watch it again It sends me chills every time. And a bonus funny moment was when Aloy broke the law of physics and started figure skating XD

My favorite moment of the game although sad had to be when she watched her mentor being killed but before he dies he saves her she then visits him often and tells him how’s she’s doing, touched my soul..great game!!

My favorite moment is at the end of HZD when Aloy finds Elisabet Sobeck’s remains. It was so beautiful and a touching scene a kind of a tear jerker. Keep up the awesome videos, Sarah! 🙌🏻

My favorite scene is the last one, when Aloy find Elisabeth, it made me cry

My favourite moment was when you first started to find out about “project zero dawn” and the beginning with “Rost” because he was such a nice character 😄 The reason why I liked the so much, was the graphics and super amazing story

My favorite moment in Horizon Zero Dawn was in the Nora cave Aloy was able to open the cauldron and the Monarchs and everyone else was praising her after.

Hi Sarah, Love all the content... been around since your first few thousand subscribers and its been great to see your channel grow and evolve. Anyways, my fav thing about HZD is basically all the machine designs and the various approaches to taking them down. Looking forward to your playthrough. Take it EZ.

Hi the collector's peice looks magnificent. Also my favorite HZD memories are just with the photo mode. The game looks absolutely fantastic, I love just going in the wild and taking photos with the amazing photo mode with weird poses. Love that game.

Thanks Sarah, for sharing your love for this game! I bought both Collectors Editions too, with both TremorTusks now standing proudly on my front speakers. You put a lot of work into what you do! Gonna watch some more of your gameplay, but first playing most of it myself.

My favorite were the battles mostly - loved them! The machines were amazing! Liked the vid!

I love your videos. It feels like your passionate and I think that’s rare in this industry. Keep going

That was a very nice unboxing video. I have a thing for Mecha/Robots and loving every machine types in this game. I own the first game but never really played It until now lol. Enjoy and happy gaming. I rarely comment in your videos but I support by watching the ads. Keep up the good work.

Regalla Edition is beautiful. Glad you wear gloves. Highly respect.

I really enjoyed discovering the machines because i went into it completely blind and didn't know what type of machines there were gonna be and so i was completely blown away by all the machines especially the machine that turned invisible. I adlı really enjoyed the more difficult machines in the frozen wilds.

Love the effort you put in these videos. Things that might go on noticed. The fact u did ur hair like Aloy. Great unboxing. I am enjoying the game

My fav thing would prob be the gradual acceptance of Aloy from the tribe, from being a bad rep to the proving, all the way to everyone looking at her like a deity, its good story development that I enjoyed a lot. Plus all the side missions enabled me to really explore the map, so I happily put in many hours

Hey, I don’t usually leave comments so you don’t have to go look for any on the previous playthrough, but I have to say that Horizon Zero Dawn is my favorite ps4 game period! I remember a moment early on in the main story that I didn’t get to for a while because the game had just captured my interest with all of the side content regarding the present day tribal war and political storylines. But when I got to Maker’s End and started to learn the truth about what happened to the Old Ones I was blown away and more engaged than ever! There are plenty of other moments that I enjoyed just as much if not more, but it was here that I began to realize how much I was enjoying this game and the lore that was being built.

Good morning Sarah Carlos, I woke up early to watch your videos. I came to your channel through the Aorus Motherboard. Your videos are sensational. Her story is also beautiful, because she is a girl of Philippines descent. Keep up your charisma! I live here in Brasília, the federal capital of Brazil.

I bought the collecter's Edition but wish I bought the Regalla version now, love yor videos Sarah your Playthrough of HZD was amazing.

Amazing unboxing, so cool to see the tremor tusk. My favourite moment from zero dawn is definitely the zero dawn bunker. It took the the game from being amazing to one of my favourite games ever

As a Horizon fan…this video for me…is wholesome. What a pleasant surprise.😊 Love the music that was in the background too

lovely unboxing, also those arms dont lie good to see you still hitting them workouts, keep up the good stuff

My favourite moment was when Alloy found the truth at the end it was so…tense and emotional . I loved it and I can’t wait to play Forbidden West! Thank you so much for this gift 🎁

That is the coolest unboxing I have ever seen. I already have a copy so I will let others enter and hopefully win, but just wanted to show my support for your videos and say Horizon truly is one of the coolest gaming worlds ever to be immersed into and Aloy is my favorite game character.

I might have to watch this entire playthrough cause I don't wanna play this on my PS4 and make it explode🤣🤣What I loved about Horizon Zero Dawn was hands down the background lore on the Earth before it was destroyed and all of humanity dies. People didn't seem to like the story of the first one but the lore including how Elisabet Sobeck made an entire Terraforming system in GAIA with all of its functions was sooo cool and intriguing to me. Really excited to see where the lore goes here.

I'm getting an Aloy hair vibe with your own hair ;) and the replica focus just made it real!!!

My favorite moment is climbing to highest point of world and taking it all in. It was amazing to see it on my PS4 slim and then again on my ps5. Then just being able to jump off and use the glider to slowly go down was so cool when I did it. I always loved the assassins creed dive in their game, but you can only do it in certain areas. Ghost of Tsushima you can’t bc you lose damage. So having the freedom to that from anywhere on HZD is just amazing. I always love open world games. Btw the Regalla Edition is A LOT!

5:13 actually that shots from the Horizon Forbidden West announcement trailer. At the end of it where she says "whatever comes , I will be ready " where she pulls her bow out on the TremorTusks ( the machine elephants) I watched the trailers too many time lol 😂 I just can't believe I'm playing the sequel. So far it's amazing. Took me hours to get to the Forbidden West cause I was too busy fighting machines , loving the combat and my god photo mode is addicting in this game. So many cool shots and pics you can make in this game. It's everything I wanted in a sequel so far , bout to finally explore the Forbidden West today. Got passed the part where they show off Regalla for the first time. When you get to that scene , goosebumps everywhere lol. Favourite parts in Zero Dawn, kind of tied with when you defend the sacred lands near the mountain from the army Helis sends out/when you first enter inside the mountain and also the whole Cage/arena part with Helis and Sylens. Ending battle in Meridian was pretty sick too. I'm loving the combat so much Forbidden West. It's a huge upgrade.

Still the best for me on zero dawn is the way rost trained aloy from when she was a child to adult, for her to be ready on proving. Nice vid Sarah! 😄 keep it up!

Mine favourite moments in horizon zero dawn was when Aloy win the trail but sadly his father figure dies right after the moment. This moment was mixed of emotions. I would be very happy if I get the game itself

One of my favourite moments in HZD was when Aloy found she came out of a machine and technically Elisabet Sobeck was not her mother i've played the whole game 4 times on the ps4 when it was first released and 2 more on the pc when the pc version got released. I loved the game because i'm kind of an emotionally moved person who liked each and every moment of Aloy's discoveries through her journey and of course the game is the first of it's type where you find this amount of machines and more to come in the forbidden west. My favourite machine is the stalker, i kinda had fun messing with it and as a character i kinda liked Sylens' although i hated him each and every moment through the whole game for some reason. I've followed you since liked when you first started the HZD gameplay and i really liked your reaction on some of the moments and it was almost as if i've replayed it by watching you, Keep up the good work 👏🏻

Best moment of HZD has to be the montage. Second is seeing all the people you helped in side quests show up at the final battle.

i love the art, the story of HZD. The world is beautiful. Every corner has something that feel alive and storytelling. I hoped one day to play this one...🥳🥳 keep the good work Sarah.👍

Can't wait for my Regalla Edition to get here! Playing the standard version now until I get it. Maybe I'll do an unboxing too, to make my friend jealous :P I'll be watching you playtrough up until the points I have played to not get spoilered 😁👍

Great unboxing!!! 🥳 Finally could get an idea hoy big it is... don't think I have a place to put it in my house right now 😢 once I get it I'll have to figure that part out. Also, your eyes looked gorgeous in this vid 🙂

I picked up the collectors edition but I honestly like the regalla statue better. Its way more colorful and got more detail imo. The tremortusk pieces won't even connect on one side.

My favorite moment in horizon zero dawn was when Aloy was watching Issacs birthday holo tape Daddy sure does love his little big man... yep I got hooked right there... then I when I was not paying attention and ran right into my first thunderjaw and how it made me feel so bad ass to be able to run away with no ammo left and still alive with almost no health. found a trader as fast as I could spent all my shards on a new bow and then spent the rest of the day trying to kill it. Great video and good luck on your play through of HFW.

My favorite parts were the unveiling of Project Zero Dawn and Elisabet's final message. Very impactful moments in the game and so far the only game that had me excited reading the lore found around the world. Looking forward to when Forbidden West will/eventually arrive on PC.

Great unboxing - still waiting for my ‘Collector’s Edition’ to be delivered! Favourite moments, where do you start? Whilst the post-game cinematic, with Aloy finding Elisabet at the ranch, is undoubtedly the most emotional and impactful, in-game I’d go with the long dialogue sequence at the end of the Gaia Prime quest. Sylens confesses his sins to Aloy and then takes his somewhat poignant leave of her (for now anyway). After all his apparently callous interactions with her to this point, it showed a (perhaps) more redeemable side to his character.

The moment when Sylens saved Aloy at the arena gave me chills.

My absolute favorite moment in Zero Dawn was after Aloy exits the sacred mountain and all of the Nora is bowing down to her and she tells them off. You can hear her pain as she drags them up on their feet yelling about how they first shunned her and now this. It was such an incredible moment, both writing-wise and voice acting from Ashly Burch. And also well within what the character Aloy would do in that moment as well.

Is it Christmas all over?? I am sitting here laughing at your reaction, it is so pretty. Preserve this well, it is an amazing add to your collection. Hope your play-through goes well.

Heya Sarah! Nice hairstyle you got! I don’t know what to tell you about the game, I loved the lore of the world, the concept of rebuilding the earth with zero dawn was so cool, and I absolutely loved hunting down machines, I spent whole game sessions just going around and hunting, bow and arrow are one of my favorite weapons on video games.

Interesting video.... never seen your channel before, I'm glad I ran across it 🤗🤗

My favorite moment for Horizon Zero Dawn was finding out that all of Apollo's knowledge got lost just think how the game would be different if it didn't get lost also loved the mechanics of the games

My favorite moment in HZD is when Aloy find out that she is a clone of Elisabet Sobeck it was a WOW moment, the game overall very beautiful the graphics and story is amazing 🤩

my favorite part of HZD is the beginning because this is the 1st game that I've played in PS4, being immerse in the world of this game is a memorable experience

I got the REGALLA edition too!!!! Horizon is my favorite game series. It's such a nixely designed collector's. I had to have it since I had the large aloy figure from the first game collectors. I was REALLY surprised by all the art on the inside box. Amazing. Going to keep this box.

Its hard to pick a favorite moment from the story as I found multiple 'favorite' moments throughout: from Alloy winning the proving to finding out the truth behind Rost's banishment to finally learning about Alloy's origin and true purpose through Elisabet. I guess this is what I would consider as my favorite part about the game: The storytelling and ofcourse the soundtrack. Finally got a chance to replay the game recently after originally playing it when it came out and it felt just as good. Looking forward to playing the new one and seeing how the story develops.

first thing i saw in the thumbnail... i really like the Aloy hair. :D the focus is my fave lol

It’s very hard to pick only one favorite moment, but I got goosebumps when Sylens came on the strider to the Sunring saving Aloy, so badass! 😍😄 Why I love the game is because of the amazing story and satisfying, fun gameplay 👏🏻 And I love Aloy of course! 🥰

My favorite moment in Horizon Zero Dawn is Herres Testimonial, commander of operation: Enduring Victory comming to terms of his role in delaying the extinction, the emotional toll from sacrificing millions of lives really comes through in this moment.

These Horizon Forbidden West Collectors Editions are amazing! My favorite moments were when Alloy first uses her focus to save Teb and the scenes with Rost overseeing her training.

I have many parts that are my favorite but there are three that standout. 1. Climbing the tallneck for the first time, those machines are so majestic and beautiful. 2. Getting the shield weaver outfit because it was so OP. 3. I don't know if this counts but the Frozen Wilds dlc because the machines were built different but I loved the challenge. Love the growth of your channel btw. Started watching you when you started your Uncharted series playthrough.

I actually liked it when she fell into the caves as a kid and found her focus! The game & dlc is loaded with cool moments! Aloy Rules!

I don't like watching unboxing but I don't know I liked and watched it all thanks sarah ❤ Your voice 15:28 😹

My favorite moment in horizon zero dawn was when I first went out into the open world and saw my first thunder jaw. I got completely annihilated. Saw my growth in the game when I finally took one down.

There are so many amazing moments in this game (Aloy's training montage, Aloy finding Dr. Sobbeck body etc) that it's hard to decide which is my favorite, but I would have to say that the revelation about the true goal of Project Zero Dawn and Operation Enduring Victory are, by far, the peak of it's storytelling in my opinion. Not only because it elucidates many of the player doubts but also because it hits like a truck once you remember how many people fought with every strength they got, thinking they would be buying time for their loved ones to be saved.

Love it!! You and the edition are beautifull!!❤️

Well made Unboxing Video. Like that you show everything and wear even Gloves etc. and youre Beautiful btw. Gonna watch the full Playtrough

The moment after Aloy saved the Nora from the Eclipse's invasion. She confronts or just ignores the High Matriarchs (depending on what you chose) in the All-Mother's Mountain, and take the responsibility on what she needs to do. After that she pretty much becomes "the leader" of the Nora, and goes to finish what she was "born" to do. That scene is the ultimate turning point on Aloy's journey. And about the game on it's totality, i can't say it's anything else than perfect. Even with it's little bugs, or some lack of features, it's perfect. Can't wait to play Forbidden West, even tho i have to wait a long time for that. PS: sorry for the bad english, it's not my primary language.

The reason why I absolutely loved Zero Dawn was the story itself and how in many ways you can see some weird parallels to modern times now leading up to a future like this. I’ve played the Assassins franchise for 12 years now and Guerilla has blown me away with Horizon. I think I have a new favorite franchise.

My Favorite moment is the most memorable one in all HZD, it is where Aloy was still a kid and was training hard so she can join the proving. The transition from a child Aloy to a strong older Aloy will always be memorable for me cause it shows the transformation of Aloy and how determine she is to prove herself and to know more about where she came from and what is her purpose in the world of HZD. Aloy's journey inspires me so much to do better with my art skill, she'll always be one of my most favorite female protagonist. BTW, I really like the Art book Sarah! ❤️

HZD! What a game ... For me every little bit of it was exciting and maybe because its the first game I played on ps4. I really liked the end of the first game and how Aloy's character developed in the game. Can't wait to be able to play HFW!!!

My favorite moment in horizon zero dawn was hands down the revelation of enduring victory and project zero dawn! I remember waiting a couple of weeks for you to get to that part just to see what your reaction was.

The Graphics were outstanding and gameplay supreme, my favourite moment was thrusting my lance into Helis in our battle together as revenge for killing Rost. Aloy of course was the star of the game and I loved playing as her, overall my favourite game ever because of the main questline and mechanics aswell, I played twice and never had a single bug on PS4, outstanding achievement by Guerilla.

My favourite part of this game is the time that aloy spend with her adoptive father rost.It was a nice father and daughter relation between them.He lead her to face many challenges on the horizon. Also everyone of us had cried at that time were rost died.Rost is a role model for all parents who were fighting for their children in real life.

Favorite moment in Horizon Zero Dawn has to be fighting the robots in the first game. It was really cool seeing instead of actual dinosaurs im fighting machines like in transformers.

My favorite part of the game is thunder jaw. I was in awe of how large and menacing it was. I had so much fun battling it. It was very challenging but well worth it.

Favorite thing about Horizon is how real and raw Aloy is, she's such a great character, a badass that has been through so much yet still compassionate.

85 hours for me to end up finally completing the game dragged it out to avoid to much but in the end for specific quests i needed something you can only access with a certain mount, so had to "pull the trigger" on the final few quests. And The Regalla set looks great, nice detailed information with the set and also a closer look at the statue.
