Brand Manager pls, I need that EasyAllies vid.
Ashly Burch is voicing Aloy. She's blown up considerably over the last few years. I still remember watching the Hey Ash videos when they were brand new.

Oh wow, didn't know she was the one from those Hey Ash videos. They were great. Also holy shit at her voicing Tiny Tina. That's one of my favorite game characters.

Finally! Ashly's range is fantastic, I can't wait to see what she does with Aloy. She even showed up in World of Final Fantasy last year, I never realized it was her until the credits.
This man knows wassup
pretty much known, but nice to have confirmation
She is awesome

I think the one thing some aren't really paying attention to with Horizon are the preview's praise of the gameplay particularly the combat engine. In my honest opinion, that's the main differentiating factor in Horizon, especially coming from a western developer where I've always felt Japanese developers excelled in this department.
The combat loop is just truly satisfying, I think if you nail that, you are already 80% there with a great game. And man, some of this stuff just looks really satisfying to play, and the fact that dungeons with even tougher enemies and puzzles are in ala Zelda, just makes me feel GG really figured out what's missing from other RPG games, and that's truly satisfying combat. For me, a great story is just icing on the cake, but it seems Horizon may deliver on that front to.
Really is just a bad time IMO for Switch to launch, I'm not even gonna buy it now, there's just too many games to get to. Good problem to have I guess lol

Back when it was first announced they were asked what were the game inspirations for Horizon. They listed Monster Hunter, Binary Domain, and Dragon's Dogma. So, that was already a good sign. It didn't necessarily mean that they'd nail it, but choosing three games known for stellar gameplay loops as an inspiration for a new IP is a good jumping off point.

I just got to that. He really thought they were quite good and expressive.
Wow, part of my concerns are being alleviated.
omg there better be dual audio

For real. It's millimeters away from being Ralphie or whoever Shawn's character was.

I was just thinking from the Easy Allies video that the chatter sounds like it's going to end up being Dragon's Dogma levels of annoying. Not sure that's something to be inspired by.

Everything I've seen apart from the schizophrenic guys quest actually has really good facial animations. That quest looks like it has a bug with the womans mouth. Either that or their facially capturing the actress and that's how her mouth moves, which is one of those things where being too close to reality makes something less realistic.
So far only that it's almost too good.
Can't think of anything negative that I've seen other than Brandon Jones saying that Aloy talks a lot.

Let get real and accept side quest cutscenes are not looking like ''the standard for open world RPG'', cheesy writing, stupid body and face animations and bad to mediocre voice acting is looking like the worst in years in the AAA space.
As long as they keep the important (main story) stuff with OK quality is not a dealbreaker to mesince (almost) everything else is looking gorgeous. (didn't like the cheap feel of the inventory screen)
I'm SOLD in the combat aspect, this is exactly what i wanted back in 2014 when the concept art leaked

Hah. You stole my idea. I actually had a slightly longer version of that, with more lasers, but the compression is just bad looking.

Everything about Horizon looks cool but I guess you can't ignore it's a WRPG.

I have said it before and I'll say it again, facial animations in Horizon are better than any other open world RPG with dialogue options.
If there's anything better, please link it.

Read the article right after posting that, thanks for the great write-up! Hopefully we will still be able to climb every mountain in sight and it'll offer more freedom than FFXV's walled vistas.

It's pretty easy to see why Jones said that watching the video. All the animations in the preview looked really good.
It's clear that for some, that one side-quest has negatively colored the perception of the entire game.
