If you, like me, just spent the last three months slowly progressing through every iota of Horizon story and world, enjoying the narrative and the space immensely, or if you just want to know a cool thing, here you go:
Every metal flower picked up can be clicked on in the menu to reveal a poem selected presumably by GAIA to bring some natural wonder to the world, at least in computer code. They appear to all be classics, with harder flowers including long-form Thoreau and Whitman.
This game has love in every moment, quest, and inch, and these poems, never hinted at and easily missable, are a great indication of why I love it.
Anyone else discover these or, if you are just hearing about it, what do you think?
Also, the vantages have full letters written out if clicked on, about twenty pages of text that tell a tragic story of an Indian-American family and are, again, completely missable. The Banuk figures all have stories too. This game, man.
