Or maybe I just wasn't in the right mood for that sort of game when I played it.

I sometimes think about giving it another try, but there are always more games I want to play than time for playing them, so I might never get back to give it another try.

I highly recommend Horizon though, I thought it was a lot of fun to play and I liked the story a lot as well.
The GOW formula was getting a little stale so and they did a good job transitioning to more of a story based action/puzzle game. That said it wasn't perfect as it was the far opposite of an open world game to the point your movement was so restricted in most environments it felt like you were playing a game on rails. The story was fantastic, best of the series as was the combat. I don't think it deserves all the hype it got but at the same time I consider it a very good game.
