Wander the gallery. Look at the art. Be polite. If you feel able please post some great art :)

Was playing Horizon Forbidden West last night and the game had you go through a gallery of Dutch art to explore the motivations and background of several characters. Very unexpected, and might be the favorite moment of the game. Night Watch was one of the pieces in that gallery.

Considering the game was developed in the Netherlands this makes perfect sense. I absolutely love it when games include shards of their culture like this

I love extra details like that.

Also the main character is voiced by one actress, and modelled by a different actress Hannah Hoekstra, who is Dutch also. (First victim in the film Cocaine Bear!)
