haha as someone who hasn't played the second game (yet) that thumbnail is a little surprising. Does she go to fucking Atlantis or something?
The Atlantis? She probably already went past there in Dunehollow...

Did they show a shot of the ending of the game?
A DLC not coming out on PS4 just means "our vision doesn't work on a 10 year old hardware that was already outdated when released in 2013".
They said it was being made for ps5 only so they could achieve their grand vision for the DLC. They are the ones who upped the expectations with their marketing. Not me...
Regardless, it doesnt matter if its standalone or not. We assumed it was going to be a standalone DLC because of their marketing. See above poll. I dont know why you're all pretending we didnt expect a lot from this DLC when just months ago we were all super excited over it being PS5 only.
When Horizon came out on Steam, I found myself spending my time in the DLC areas first because though tougher, you could level up very quickly. Finished the DLC first then the main game.But why would someone want to play DLC before playing the base?
Also Horizon FB is free right now with PS+ Extra so if someone is interested in this I doubt they would have issues with needing the base game.
well yeah. Again, I dont see the difference between what I said then and what im saying now.... i.e., it will be more of the same.More than that even, I would say it means "Phew! We were going to have to try to make this extra content for both platforms we launched on, but that was going to be even harder to pull off than before with some of the stuff we're trying here, and luckily sales numbers say we don't have to."
They announced it by showing it. Just flyovers, sure, not combat and exploration play, but even so, that was the DLC and its game engine in motion.
And you were there. (And if you go back and read your own posts, you were a lot more realistic about what this DLC at the time after seeing it than you are now.) You're talking about fan expectations and marketing, as if tons of posts and rumors have flown about what Burning Shores is, but we saw that first day what it generally is and we've read some boilerplate description text and one interview what it generally is. Most of what these expectations you say "we were all super excited over" has been made up in our own heads and in forum chatter unrelated to what was actually shown or described by the company.
It'll be cool to see what Burning Shores does that's beyond what we have been told and have seen, but it'll primarily be what we have been told and have seen.
The monster at the end is cool, and the clouds are fluffy; otherwise, the engine seems pretty much the same so far. (And its destruction at the end is probably CG/prerigged.) Will be interesting to see where they push things on this after cutting off last-gen support, or if they are just streamlining to get this out.
its probably the latter, but its exciting nonetheless. they might be able to do things they couldnt do on the PS4.
The foliage looks the same which is disappointing but the game looks better than 99% of the games at the show.
"Our creative vision for the Burning Shores is an ambitious expansion which will take Aloy to the ruins of Los Angeles. It's an overgrown and fractured city that can be fully explored via the water and flying on the back of a Sunwing. A massive machine threat lurks in its shadows – a huge challenge that Aloy must overcome by using all of her skills and abilities."
Yeah, I saw that, but its just PR.
Game sales were 70-30 split between the PS5 and PS4 despite PS5 version being free. I bet 90% of the players were on PS4 and they were like fuck it.
Will need to see more. The big strider fight finally happening could be a sign its PS5 only. If they let us fly in the clouds then that could also be a PS5 SSD feature.
In the years and years of gaming, you have nobody to blame but yourself when it comes to "hype."First you all hype me up
so you're upset when Im hyped up and all positive and even more upset when im bummed that there is nothing to be hyped about/be negative. i cant win with you. you sound like my wife. lol Is there anything i can do to make you happy!In the years and years of gaming, you have nobody to blame but yourself when it comes to "hype."
Nice persona, however.
Did you play Forbidden West?Phone call from the deceased always gonna get a tear from me.
I'm not upset at all. Just pointing out the obvious.so you're upset when Im hyped up and all positive and even more upset when im bummed that there is nothing to be hyped about/be negative. i cant win with you. you sound like my wife. lol Is there anything i can do to make you happy!
If you read through the exchange, you will see other gaffers try and hype me up.
They said it was being made for ps5 only so they could achieve their grand vision for the DLC. They are the ones who upped the expectations with their marketing. Not me.
And I'd think that the stagnantion of this industry is due toa lack of new ideas and innovation, not the other way around but what do i know.
Considering it's DLC for a preexisting game i would cousider your assessemnt accurate lol.Why wont they show actual footage from the DLC?
i have a feeling its going to be more of the same.
RIP Lance
don't worry, he bags on Horizon Forbidden West and then praises Gothan Knights lol different boats have different floatsNo shit, its DLC.
The expectation that devs constantly reinvent the wheel is killing gaming.
don't worry, he bags on Horizon Forbidden West and then praises Gothan Knight lol
They are both 7/10 games. For different reasons, I liked the combat in Gotham Knights a lot more, but the visuals, story and open world are very bland in comparison.SlimySnake this true?
I imagine they will have a in memory of at the start of the DLC. Maybe for the next mainline Horizon if they have a few sentences from previous sessions to cobble together and work out a scenario where Sylens get a hero's death.Won't be the same without him. I hope they do a tribute to him next game.
Well, yeah. Of course it will be more of the same. The game isn't going to change lol.Why wont they show actual footage from the DLC?
i have a feeling its going to be more of the same.
Get off of here and go play!Still need to play the second game. Adult life fucking sucks, let me tell ya![]()
who are you talking towell yeah. Again, I dont see the difference between what I said then and what im saying now.... i.e., it will be more of the same.
If you read through the exchange, you will see other gaffers try and hype me up. And thats what Im saying, we thought this was being made PS5 only so that they could push the PS5.
First you all hype me up and then when i say its more of the same you get upset at me not being sufficiently hyped up and being a contrarian for the sake of being negative. i cant win lol
P.S notice how i said will need to see more. We still havent seen anything since. this is their third dlc related trailer/blog post in the last week or so, and no footage yet. show me the good stuff. why is this considered being negative?
Uh... right.SlimySnake is one of my favorite posters. This is literally all you need to do to be a great poster.
1. Have interesting opinions.
2. Be honest about it
3. Argue the topic and not insult others
Thats it. He blows past 70% of the posters here who either focus only on insults or dont actually have detailed or interesting opinions about games. Who cares if you agree with every opinion he has? I dont. Talk to him about it. He responds just fine.
I think you'll live.Uh... right.
I caught him lying about one of the posts that I made and he wasn't willing to admit that he was wrong.
I will. I think "he'll respond just fine" is what I found funny in your post.I think you'll live.
I frequently see people dog pile him just fot having a critical opinion and it just baffles me. I dont get it. Had to point out he's one of the better posters here.I will. I think "he'll respond just fine" is what I found funny in your post.

No shit, its DLC.

They sure did. But without context it's impossible to interpret anything from it.
Edit: P Pharaoh 117 Oh, crap I take that back. There are two scenes from the ending; the first one is harmless, but the second one directly after is a completely boneheaded move on their part.
The step up in Frozen Wilds compared to HZD is making me hype for HFW's DLC. Preordered too. Loved the series including the climbing simulator
And aside from all of that, he's the derail champ.SlimySnake is one of my favorite posters. This is literally all you need to do to be a great poster.

He usually just says his opinion, and then the dogpile of offended people is the derail. But let's just drop it. Heaven forbid I try to say something positive about someone ever again.And aside from all of that, he's the derail champ.

I miss him!
Don't read more or check, it's nice to see it first time by playing, I enjoyed itwtf. I guess California (Or Vegas I suppose?) is handling the apocalypse a bit better than Colorado did, huh?
The trick is to ignore and move on. You really cant expect everyone to like you. Appreciate the kind words but for every comment I get about being negative, derailing, concern trolling, and bitching, i get 10 likes that tells me im not really that crazy or saying shit completely out of the norm. Besides, Half of the people who leave LOL reactions and get triggered by my posts are now permabanned. I literally started keeping track a few months ago because it was hilarious to see everyone on my ignore list get permabanned for stuff they were accusing me of doing. At the end of the day, I have some 55k likes on gaf, 30 likes on my first two posts in this thread alone. Really doubt everyone here hates me. I love that I can be myself here on gaf, but I also understand my opinions can be controversial and they will trigger people. Those people also get to express their disapproval which is fine. That's why gaf is way better than era and reddit. People are allowed to express themselves.He usually just says his opinion, and then the dogpile of offended people is the derail. But let's just drop it. Heaven forbid I try to say something positive about someone ever again.
Yeah it's pointless unless you care about the cosmetics preorder bonus.Looks great, but why would we preorder a digital dlc?
One that will look better on pc when you mod away the red under suitMay I ask which outfit this is?

Misery loves company, who knew?but for every comment I get about being negative, derailing, concern trolling, and bitching, i get 10 likes that tells me im not really that crazy or saying shit completely out of the norm.
This is why you don't preorder games or dlc before seeing the goods.Why wont they show actual footage from the DLC?
i have a feeling its going to be more of the same.
