Horizon Zero Dawn | Cinematic Trailer

About the question number 1, I've just read this and may be the best piece of information in that regard:

Can't tell anytinhg about the other questions though.

Yeah this is exactly why I expect this to be more like far cry than witcher.

Lots of news about them hiring guys from witcher and obsidian but people need to tone it down big time because its likely that the game isn't anywhere like those games
 
A couple of questions if I may:

1) This is a real RPG, right? Similar to the Witcher 3 or Skyrim?
2) It is true open world?
3) Any estimates of how many hours the main story will take and how many hours including all side content?



Wow, please let this all be explorable and not just be a pretty backdrop like in FFXV.
FFXV was hugely diappointing on the city front. I hope Horizon Zero Dawn will compete with the beautiful and immersive Witcher 3 cities.

4) Any footage of city life? :)



1: This is an action Rpg as advertised by the developers but they don't want some complex systems hence don't expect Deep mechanics.

2: Its an open world , but some of the poster will say , its a hub like system connected one to another , don't listen to them . Obviously there are mountains , desert and forest biomes in one big open world differentiate by Landscapes.

3:
Story - ~20 Hours and 100% took 45 hour
s . This is from the 4chan leaks so it may be not accurate.

4: There is some footage or images in PSX decima engine reveal plus HZD panel , you may want to look into it.

Hey, thanks for that, guys. :)

About 20 hours is pretty short though... :( Why is this considered a spoiler?
 
Cyberia - how do you look up your posts? Short summation - I go to Redmond quite a bit for work. I will caveat what I say by simply acknowledging my information is NOT from the gaming division. I do, however, have a lot of experience with MS corporate. I speak with my clients regularly about gaming, and a few weeks ago was talking to a group about the XBox One S. I told them I was thinking about buying one over Black Friday, but decided to wait for the Scorpio next Fall. Two of my customers kind of snickered, and said I could be waiting awhile, and should just go ahead and buy the S. They wouldn't elaborate


Take what you want from my experience.


Now, after the latest news with Scalebound, that is no longer even an option. Maybe Scorpio will change my mind, but I think I will be more than fine with the Switch and PS4. My clients don't need to know that, though ;)
 
Lance Reddick!

Exactly what I said out loud to myself.

The man's voice is truly iconic.

This guy is like to be in games
latest


He sure does.

Whether we wanted it or not.....
We did!

Fantastic trailer though. I have high hopes for this one!

uh... I came to that conclusion by watching the trailer and hearing the terrible dialogue lmao.
(and also reading the leak)
It's quite obviously not the highlight of the game, I bet $100 that the story is said to be bland and forgettable in reviews.

Don't even know if that leak is true. Go watch the witcher trailer, cringy dialog, means nothing yet.
 
I think the writing will feel better in more context during the game. It's difficult to convey a good story and dialogue for a massive RPG in a short trailer. These are one liners plucked from larger conversations so they'll sound a bit corny and out of place.

The witchers trailer was bad too...people judging an RPG's dialog/story off a trailer are laughable. I mean it may turn to shit but you cannot know that right now.

LOL ok ok let's judge story by a trailer and a leak Lmao

Fingers cross and hope for the best
 
20 hours for story is longer then a lot fo RPG's, Skyrim can be beat in 10. There is more to do then just main story though.

If 20 hours is just for the main story that is pretty good. There are other major story lines as well that have the own progressions. I'm hoping to get a solid 40 hours of playtime. They have not really mentioned anything about the length though which is a slight concern.

Yup. They did a good job with the trailer IMO. They can't give it all away otherwise whats the point?
 
Game looks amazing, but the writing seems to be cliche. I hope I'm wrong, but I have lowered my expectations for the writing of this game.
 
That comes from 4chan and is still a rumour. FFXV main story is also pretty short.

It is and it is incomplete on top of this... :/

That may be so, but that 4chan leak apparently also says with all side content it's just 45h. That's pretty meager imo. The world seems so large though...guess there is not much to do?

I'm not totally convinced either, but to be honest, can someone show me a gametrailer that screams 'writing and plot of this game will be awesome!'?

45 Hr is meagre now? That's longer then say ME. You are jumping to conclusions, that leak may not even be real, but 45 hours is hardly meagre in any sense of the word.

The main stuff that just sounds goofy / off to me is all the "end of the world talk". It just sounds super generic and forced here.

But again I have tons of faith in the gameplay / world design so even if I don't end up blown away by the plot or storytelling it doesn't really matter

The animation also looks pretty jerky in cutscenes.

Also yeah, the facial animation / capture tools they are using don't translate super great

45 hours is plenty if true. That is longer than Mass Effect games which I considered the sweet spot of RPGs that don't overstay their welcome.

How about wait for more legitimate experiences before making those conclusions?
 
some popping but it looks good overall.

Looks good? Looks better than anything on the market by a long shot so If this looks good I guess all the others games look mediocre at best.

Except BF1, Ratchet, Order and Uncharted 4 and to some extent Gears 4 also impressed me.

Witcher 3 close to this looks last gen and I played alot of Witcher 3, let's be realistic, Guerilla is the graphics king.
 
I didn't know 4chan leaks are legit now. Sure they were right about ffxv (only one time) but it's also the same place that said dead don't ride/days gone would be about dude with a flaming skull or some baloney and vergil from dmc would turn into a fucking t-rex. They also said knack 2 would be at e3 last year. But hey people are free to believe to what they want to believe.
Also it's kinda easy to judge the writing without the full context.
 
45

45

45
is enough for me. But that's also pretty much the same as
Mass Effect (45 ~ 50 hours)
not longer.

I'd rather a more focused, well designed and varied game that is 45 hours compared to the bloated, repetitive and poorly paced open world games out there. Bigger is rarely better in most open world games.

Dialogue and story aren't the same thing... I think everyone just wants the game to be trash lol. They keep moving the goalposts, "it looks great but..."

Or maybe people really do think the game looks great but still see issues with it?

People don't need to sit down and watch every trailer for games and say "By god this is just the greatest thing ever."
 
A lot of this sounds like when people were saying the same thing about Rogue One and it's dialogue based on trailers. Nothing even sounded bad. Hell nothing here sounds bad at all. Quite frankly I think some are just being very nit picky.

and I hope god people aren't complaining about the length. 20 hours just for the story is enough. 45 plus side content i more than enough.
 
Can we not discuss 4chan leaks in this thread? This thread is to talk about a trailer. Some of us aren't trying to get spoiled by leaked info.
