The game is shit and no amount of extra eye candy will make it better.

Time to move on from this franchise and make something new imo. I am sure they will remaster Forbidden West in a year or so.

Its cool that they have future proofed the first game. Because we aint getting a 3rd until ps6 launches.

It's could be just me, but there's definitely some parts of the video where I prefer the warmer tones of the original. I'm on my work PC so there may be some difference I'm not seeing because I'm not watching in 1440p or 4k.
The way the sun works in the remastered version as far as godrays kinda washes out the architecture in the background at times. I understand it's more of an artistic choice, but I think I prefer less godrays and more clarity.
However, the foliage looks a lot better in the remaster and in some of the scenes I appreciate the artstyle changing to something more resembling Forbidden West.
I mean...it's 10 bucks and I'm sure it will perform just as well. Nixxes don't miss.
Enemy details mimic Forbidden West too, nice improvement

When you get a chance, try to catch it on a good screen. Some of the changes are pretty big!
Still, glad you could at least check it out with that vid!

The game looks massively improved graphically. Which makes it all the more frustrating that it's for a game that I don't like at all. I'm guessing most other people 'shit posting' have a similar dislike for the game.

Sony is not asking them to add ray-tracing, though. Huge difference.
Also, it's obviously a matter of workforce, Nixxes is doing several porting projects at the same time.

Eh, don't bother. Brainrot has truly destroyed any kind of Sony discussion here for the past 10 months or so.Why would they remaster a native PS5 game.....for PS5?

I see more visual improvement in this remaster than in many remakes. Seems that Nixes -as usual- is doing a great job, I think it deserves the $10 upgrade that I will be happy to pay.
I don't know the exact Killzone sales, but this game may have sold like over twice the amount of copies of the entire Killzone franchise combined.
I'd love to see a Killzone collection remastered/remade, but I think isn't likely.

Well it's the same game that released in 2017 it's just visually enhanced so yeah a lot of people can already give you their feelings about the game...

I dont understand why some users are saying that the first Horizon is shit. We must have played different games I guess but I found the game to be really good, with very good writing, interesting story and great gameplay.
I dont know, I feel its disingenuous to say this game is shit to be honest, you might dont like it but I cant take seriously that kind of criticism

Just putting this here for everyone wondering why this game got an incredible looking remaster and for all those saying its shit and they dont understand it..
"Horizon Zero Dawn released on PC in August 2020 and had a successful launch, moving over 700,000 digital units. By March 2022, that number had increased to about 2.4 million units. In May 2023, it was announced on the official PlayStation blog that as of 16 April 2023, the game had sold over 24.3 million units"
"Horizon Forbidden West has sold through 8.4 million copies in just over a year. The milestone was buried in a studio profile on developer Guerrilla Games that was published on the PlayStation Blog. This is the first time we've seen any sales figures for Forbidden West since the sequel debuted in February 2022"
The Horizon franchise is fucking huge for Sony and jesus lads, for a tenner Sony are giving us a day and night upgrade for the original game, whilst i'll not be replaying it, after seeing those upgrades i'll probably punt a tenner just to go have a look around

Bloodborne didn't sell anywhere near as good as Horizon. Should have bought more copies.

Definitionally "shitposting" is when somebody posts on a topic they straight-up say they don't care about, and it comes across like they are just trying to a get a reaction from those who do.
The point I was making was that I feel like this game is taking hits largely because of people generally having issues with Sony/Playstation/Gaming as a whole right now, and not really because there's anything wrong with this product in itself.
Which I don't think is a particularly controversial observation to make, and legitimately a bit sad if you accept it (the observation) to be true.
I mean, case in point, why are you "frustrated" by Nixxes doing a good job on this? Isn't it relevant to your interests that this is the quality of their work, and likely representative of the degree of improvement to be seen on their next port / remaster job?

That is actually called tesselation.

It's obviously a decent upgrade in terms of tech, but some artistic changes are questionable. Not sure why they made colors colder.
Anyways, at this point 10 bucks should be the price of the full game, I wouldn't spend that just to add better lighting.

I actually think the new screens make the world appear more alive, as if the original was drab and bland.
While I actually thought the original was looking amazing and colorful.
Can't wait to see it on Pro.

Okay, I also want to add some extra comparison.
I can't wait for Lego Horizon Remaster
Alright, I'll admit I was wrong when I insinuated this was a low effort cash grab. The upgrades push it closer to a cg movie in character rendering and direction vs the 'lifeless action figure' look before.
The guy looks like a vampire in comparison to the new one!

That`s a lot of work for a remaster. They pretty much left no asset untouched, even redid the bake cycles for the lighting.
10 bucks seem really fair for once. (won`t touch the game again though)

That's an amazing upgrade for just $10.

Talking the enhancements, not the core story. People are drawing conclusions from a tiny fraction of screenshots and video.

I kind of like the way the original looks here better.

Yep, honestly.
It doesn't make sense to me to engage in threads of a game you supposedly don't care about and even less if you actively dislike that game. And it is not like they do it once or twice. The same Twitter trash level comments get repeated in every single thread.
I wonder if many of these people even talk about the games they do like at least as often as they do about those they dislike.
I really do hope they get better someday.

DF made things very clear. Nice improvement. I might just bite, though I've already finished the game. I'm still working on Forbidden West honestly so maybe I'll wait until I finish that and the DLC.
How's NG+ for those who've gone into it? Any differences other than being OP from the start?

Is there any Pro modes?? I liked Zero Dawn much more than FW the hate it's getting is borderline comical....
I'd rather Guerilla made a new game next and Horizon seems a bit forced this gen especially with a Lego game now aswell but this Remaster isn't a Guerilla game it's Nixxes and for £10 it seems like a great deal.
