Do you not understand the potential Horizon's machines have with LEGO kits? This will be like Bionicle in terms of having a fleshed out world.
LEGO and PlayStation Are Working on a New Game Called 'LEGO Horizon Adventures'

Aloy's face was perfect for a lego!LEGO and PlayStation are developing a new game named 'LEGO Horizon Adventures'.
Last week, trademark finder Kurakasis tweeted that Sony and Lego were soon to announce a collaboration of a well-known IP. At the time, Kurakasis revealed the game, but as what seems to be obligatory from insiders these days, I vaguely tweeted that the project was 'on the horizon'.
Speaking with sources, it was said that the game is essentially "Horizon Forbidden West but Lego" and that the game will have "realistic graphics" – whatever that means for a LEGO game.

I would suggest looking into what high end Lego sets actually are. Barad Dur and Rivendell for example are 500 USD and offer a ton of printed pieces and 5+ minifigs

I would suggest looking into UCS Star Wars sets. You would be surprised. Lego nowadays is a shadow of its former self.

Lego SOTC sets would have been amazing.

I bet more people will buy this than the last Horizon game. I have kids and they'll love this.

Lego has Horizon sets, at they have the Longneck. Wondering what about the franchise specifically interests Lego to begin with.
I kind of get a Sony Lego collab....but Horizon?

I'm genuinely curious, as I don't quite understand that: you're saying you think the fact that LEGO Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Marvel, etc. exists makes those franchises worse? They're worse off than if those games didn't exist? How exactly? I mean, you can still watch The Lord of the Rings movies and ignore the LEGO game, right? It doesn't retroactively make the movies worse...
I didn't say the existence of Lego games makes the non-lego stuff retroactively worse. I said that the Lego versions cheapen the franchise.
The same way that later shitty entries to the Spyro the Dragon series from Activision cheapened the franchise.
Horizon has a pretty serious tone, so a Lego game made specifically for kids is too happy-go-lucky and optimistic for a franchise rooted in a bleak post-apocalyptic setting.
It would be like a Barbie version of the Walking Dead. It just doesn't fit.

The UCS sets are designed around having heavily detailed vehicles that do not match the mini fig size. Why would they add them to Luke's spreader? Or the super star destroyer? Millennium falcon, at at, etc - all are minifig size and offer a large amount of figures.

Horizon is the most grown in a lab to be the Sarkeesian crowd pleasing bland shit ever.

I pity the people that can't find anything fun about robot dinosaurs made of Legos. I have to fight the temptation of buying that $200 third party Thunderjaw set. It looks great.

I am a closet furry. Don't you judge me.
Probably cause astro bot made $0 and Horizon made millions.
Since astro bot was included for free with ps5, it's probably a risker bet for Sony as they don't know how much it will sell.

This might actually make Horizon tolerable for me.

Really? Only Spider Man makes more sense in my opinion
Even then I'd argue Lego robot dinosaurs is more marketable

It might be just me, but I would take Lego versions of Ratchet and Clank, God of War (especially Greek one), Astro Bot, LittleBigPlanet or inFamous over Horizon
There were already plenty of Lego Marvel / Avengers games with Spider-Man. I don't think Sony even has rights to make Lego Spider-Man game. I think their rights to Spider-Man are tied only to movies and TV series and games happened only through exclusive deals they made with Disney

The problem with some of those is they just arent popular enough (sad to say it but that counts out LittleBigPlanet, Ratchet, Astrobot and even Infamous)
The other isnt marketable to kids (God of War)
You have to think of this as not just an opportunity for Sony (and Lego to some degree) to make a game, but also for Lego to sell their Lego sets (which also benefits PlayStation). Even without the Horizon name, Lego robot dinosaurs will be cool, kids would buy them even without knowing what Horizon is.

Yeah, I think there are already Horizon sets so you might be onto something. But either way, to me Horizon sounds very bland for the Lego game. That said, I may be also disappointed as I was hoping that next Lego game will be Lego Harry Potter game similar to Skywalker Saga

Not a bad idea. I want a Horizons movie though. Maybe they could even use the in-game rendered models and put it 1:1 on the big screen. That franchise could be a transformers like megahit.

There is, I think they only made the Tallneck (officially, people have made others)

Lego can be realistic in-game. This is what they mean with realistic Lego games:
We might see a full lego game with these kinds of graphics or even better.

You remind me of the old Xbox fans that made it a thing to act like Blu-ray was being forced on us with PS3 lol.
Will you like to explain how over 20 million people were forced to buy Horizon?
If no one wanted it they could have easily flooded the used market & killed off the sales of the game at retail.

What are you talking about. The robots lend themselves extremely well for Lego sets. More so than nearly anything else.

Didn't they bundle the game with the console at some point?
Btw: I actually always thought that BluRay was a neat idea. Nowadays, I think that physical games should come in cartridge/module form instead of a optical disk. But that's another discussion, I think.

I hear some of the LEGO Star Wars games are supposedly pretty good.The only way to make me interested in a damn lego game
