The only thing I know about this character is that she got dropped into Fortnite riding a mechanical dragon.
I'm guessing it's some Soyny exclusive that nobody here should be in the market for, considering what they've supported lately. Nobody here has a PS5, right?
I've not played it but I understand that it fits in the narrative that everything men make is bad and she literally saves the world from the mistakes of men. I understand that she is also from a matriarchal society.
No idea if it is true or not, I just see the game as bad compared to the Witcher. Better looking world, a lot more interactive, tons of lore and interesting characters and sexy babes. I see no reason to play Horizon over Witcher or even Skyrim for that matter.
Thank you for the great summary. I put a lot of hours into the game but never finished it and the story just seemed so contrived and stupid I stopped caring. The gameplay is really fun though I'm not really sure if it's worth the (woke) price of admission. Luckily I waited and got the complete version for like ten bucks and feel I did get my money's worth from the gameplay and graphics point of view. Because who doesn't like blowing up robot dinosaurs?
The recurring theme of the game is her dumping on the 'superstitious' beliefs of the tribes even though Aloy has literally no more knowledge than they do and no justifiable reason for doubting the supernatural beliefs. She's just portrayed as intrinsically smarter than everyone for no reason.
Maybe because she was raised by a man? If the menfolk have to shoulder the blame for all of the problems in their society, then surely Rost is entitled to some credit for making Aloy into someone a little bit better than the rest.
I'm not saying a true matriarchal society has ever been tried and would turn out just like the backwards bullshit in the game. But having worked in environments with lots of women of a certain type I can see it trending in that direction over time.
