For Lovers of Exploration and Deep Ocean
If you're looking for action or challenge, you won't really find it here, but if you just want to explore a beautiful, diverse underwater landscape, you simply can't go wrong here. When the PlayStation 4 was first announced, this is one of the few games that I had my eye on from the very beginning, and it's every bit as wonderful as I'd ever dreamt. As I've suggested, the game is little more than exploring an underwater world, and it's quite an experience. There are creatures to bring to life, statues for meditation to watch the marine life, and seashells to collect, but even without that, I found myself exploring every corner in abject wonder. The world of ABZU is so colorful and diverse, with areas in nearly every color of the rainbow, and some neat ruins and high-tech areas sprinkled in. I don't generally like orchestral soundtracks, but this one really did it for me; it's not just the usual bland, generic noise that fades into the background, but something that truly enhances the experience. There seems to be a bit of a story going on, but nothing is expressed in words, so you're free to interpret the events and lore as you see fit, and I think that works well with the immersion. I'll be the first to admit, though, that your mileage may vary; an underwater exploration game has been a dream of mine for ages. The gameplay can vary. There's nothing to really hurt you, but there may be a few moments in which the controls are frustrating. I started out with the keyboard and mouse, which takes a lot of time to get used to and... I kinda did. Playing with a controller (I have a Logitech F-310), though, makes a world of difference. It can still be a little awkward, depending what position you're in, but since there's no real danger, frustration was minimal. To say that this was inspired by the Ecco the Dolphin series would be an understatement, but this is a bit less dark and mysterious, for the most part.
