Horizon: Zero Dawn

Hey I'm not judging hell I've only seen screenshots for the game and I'm impressed. I dig prehistoric games.
 
Yep. Pre ordered here as well. I have that nice little count down clock to watch now.
 
Haven't preordered yet but want it. Game is just coming at an odd time for me between Nioh and Nier. I might end up grabbing that Collector's Edition though as it's only $95 with Best Buy Gamers Club... tempting. And I do love a good statue.
 
So you've played Horizon Zero-O?

Don't get me wrong, everything I've seen thus far continues to look better and better. When I first saw the game I thought "this is just stupid...robot dinosaurs where humans are still cavemen and shooting metal monstrosities with arrows". It was all a bit over the top. But having watched more and more I am understanding the vision and I am much more at ease with it all. In fact, I have the collectors edition pre-ordered for Day 1.

But while everything shown looks in good order, there hopefully is still much more to be revealed that will take this to the level of a stalwart series like AssCreed, Gears, Halo, Uncharted, etc. I'm rooting for it but not 100% convinced as we've had other titles with great promise fall flat.

Point out to me where I say the game is good or bad. My post was clearly about gameplay depth.

Not sure what your expecting but Horizon already seperated itself from the pack. Despite some similartiesi to Farcry the combat system unique and complex not to mention you can't find agile atheltic characters in open world RPG's especially western RPG's. If you aren't impressed by now Horizon just isn't for you. Also RPG's don' translat well in gameplay videos. Just playing playing the game will be HYPE.

Horizon 2 is defninitly garunteed. I expect 80's to 90's on metacrtic wich is good for a new IP. For me personally Horizon is all about gameplay and atmosphere I don't care if the story is good or bad.

My response is to the video not anyone here the in the topic. The reviewer mentioned "If you don't like Primal you won't like Horizon." and I disagreed. My issue is that reviewers are shedding too much light on the comparisons rather than mentioning what's unique about Horizon. If the game is compared too much to Farcry it will definitly turn people away who wanted a new experience.

And I still think Kvally was trying to low blow Horizon based on posting history but I will digress.



My post is clearly about depth. I was spot on just like I am about Ni-Oh.

:wink:
Low blow? I just f***ing dropped $64 on it a month in advance. Get over your plastic worshipping. I never said Primal comparisons were bad :smash:

You have to give Sony felatio in every single aspect of a post or you're not doing it right.

Having said that, Horizon looks fukcing awesome. I'm still trying to plug away in Skyrim and Witcher 3, then along comes this game.

When some one is called out on their BS the first reaction is this... ^

Not everyone likes the comparisons to Farcry that's why you made sure we all knew about these comparisons outside the forums. LOL It was your little fanboy duty.

I have to admitt you are good at brainwashing people over video games. lol Ridiculous...

That's funny considering people defend everything I say about Microsoft and Xbox.

:wink:

Sorry but I have no reason to believe Kvally is a genuine poster but why do you care? ..

I didn't see anything wrong with the comparison. Others that aren't overly sensitive didn't either.
That's not a knock on Horizon at all. In case you haven't noticed, everyone in this thread is excited for the game.

Like said not evreyonone is on board with Farcry comparisons wich is why Kvally made the post to began with. lol Do you read comments outside UnionVGF? It can definitly be seen as a knock against Horizon. I waited for Kvally to make the post and he didn't disappoint. Like said Kvally is not a genuine poster...

If you are going chime in atleast have knowledge on the subject and where the person is coming from otherwise you add nothing of value and mindless accusations. Thanks...

I loved Far Cry Primal. I'm delighted to hear it compared to this game.
I hate Far Cry Primal. I'm disappointed its being compared to this game.

:txbrolleyes:

That's pretty much all that anyone seems to be saying in this thread now. Any chance we can move past that now?

He must not realize the rest of us have known each other for like 20 years now. Eh, no worries, meanwhile we will enjoy the game :)

It's human nature for us to compare things and even people. Plus games borrow aspects from other games. No one is reinventing the wheel. It's what the developers do with the sum of those parts that matter, and GG's looks to have a potential massive hit on their hands.
