I've only played an hour but I can immediately tell I will like the characters. Aloy has spunk. She has moxie.

 

[maxxpower]

Is there only ranged combat in this game, or do you get to use swords?

 

[bubumiao]

Nah standard. Got it up and running but it skipped the opening cinematic

At least you're back in business.

There's a spear / staff kinda thing.

There's your spear but its moveset is very limited as it's not the focus of the gameplay.

 

[Wishmaster92]

wow. This is gameplay

 

[HeisenbergWW62]

Yep, and I saw the cutscene from the menues. We good baby

It's one of the best opening cinematics ever

 

[Y2Kev]

I think I accidentally skipped a cutscene by tapping x. Sudprised it's that easy.

 

[G-Bus]

Can't seem to download from store anyone having that issue?

Yea. Had that problem last night. Had to go into my games library and download.

No confirmation whatsoever? I guess I'd put away my controller in cutscenes from now on.

Was it right after you are done in the cave early on? (keeping it vague here)

I accidentally skipped that one but then for all other conversations and cutscenes of any kind there is a pause screen that comes up. Not sure why that one I was able to skip.

 

[Lady Gaia]

Argh. Still almost two hours to wait before the digital download unlocks! Enjoy, everyone. I've been going progressively dark as more and more of you dive in. See you on the other side.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

So many western attempts at monster hunter, then GG come and make it look easy.

 

[eastcoastkody]

How common is this "GameStop releasing the game at 9pm the night before" thing?

 

[DirgeExtinction]

I want to play now.
Make it go live early, Sonyyyyy

That Metacritic score prediction 😂

Yes! Wtf at that?

 

[therealminime]

Yes! Wtf at that?

Huh, must be a glitch of some sort if we've both seen it. I hit X to climb up twice and skipped it but yeah, it brings up a hard to miss pause screen in all other cases. Curious.

Wow same scenario. Fix this shit guerrilla.

Is anyone having issues with the deluxe edition items downloading? It's just giving errors all around. Game is downloaded fine.

 

[wapplew]

Hey wapplew did you even go to sleep? Saw some of my friends playing at 12(one is still at it)

I slept early, wake up and play until 5am.
Was plan to play 2 hours but the plot is good I kept going.

 

[The Lamp]

For those wanting (or wanting to avoid) an entire story summary, I posted it in the spoilers thread.

How common is this "GameStop releasing the game at 9pm the night before" thing?

It became a thing after RE7. They asked the publisher if they could do it and they said yes. It was successful so now they do it more.

What sort of errors?

Spoiler

except for different weapons classes of course.

 

[Mengetsu]

In the app it's giving error downloading and it's not in the library with the game and artwork downloads to try on the PS4 itself.

 

[Styles]

I can't wait to shoot canisters off of robos.

It looks so fun!

 

[Jedi2016]

Won't get this until tomorrow when I get home from work.

I was watching a video on YT just now, and it just doesn't do it justice.. video compression in the face of all that detail!

My Pro hungers! Many 4K screenshots await!

 

[Aikidoka]

Why are PSN downloads so ridiculously slow? Steam games download something like 10x faster.

Haha at least some people are being sensible

 

[Lucent]

Best Buy delivered my copy around 1pm today here in Indiana. Unfortunately I didn't get to play much because I had to work at 4pm and had other stuff to do. But I can tell it's gonna be good. Gonna play for at least a couple hours tonight.

 

[GHG]

Can someone point me towards the differences between the ps4 pro version and the regular ps4 version?

I want to make a decision on what I'm doing today in terms of whether I get a pro or not... I'm also looking at getting a new car so maybe it's not the best idea...

If I rock up with a new car and ps4 pro later I think my wife might just kill me.

I don't think even God knows the answer to this question.

I hate my life a little everytime I try to download huge game from PS store.

That's why it's good they have preloading. Unless this one didn't have it?

i've searched for hours.....and would still like a definitive answer on the question of the Pre-order content in the digital deluxe edition.

if all the stuff is already unlockable in-game....and this is just an early unlock.

dont you need to exchange the tokens at a vendor for the items? I havent yet, but I see the tokens in my inventory.

They may not be available to download yet

 

[Kin5290]

I'd hoped to play some tonight, but I missed the apparent 5 minute window between when I could pick the game up from Gamestop and when they closed. I'm never buying games from them again.

5 minutes that changed the course of history. Haha. Sorry, that stinks.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Just want to say that after watching some stream footage and a bit of the intro on YouTube that this is probably the most graphically impressive game I've seen in years, especially for a console-only title.

Really want to build a souped-up PC this year, but Horizon is definitely making me consider grabbing my first console since the 360 elite back in 2007 (which I got for Halo 3), a PS4 (Pro?) as well.

It IS the killer app for me.

There also a ton of games that are coming out this year that should only add to the purchase not too mention the already released titles like Bloodborne.

 

[Cyanity]

Man, the Ps4 Pro is looking to be the GOAT console of this generation. There are gonna be so many great exclusives on it, on top of it being the first console to support 4k.

If they do a Horizon bundle later this year...I might jump on one.

Mmmm, new car and new electronic hardware...

 

[G-Bus]

Well damn. The hype is real. Just overy an hour to go. Warned the wife I'll probably fall asleep on the couch tonight hah.

 

[reKon]

can't wait to eat tomorrow after work. Gonna be a feast

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

Disappointing that there's no audio preset for Horizon on the ps4 app. Hell, there's only been 4 games for the platinum since it launched, this is just weak.

 

[tdrdrgn]

I like TR, but the combat is pretty boring. How is the combat in this game?

The combat in TR is passable at best, Horizons combat is much better. their not really that comparable though because TR mostly functions as a cover shooter with pretty standard enemy's (soldiers/mercenaries) As others have said the encounters with the robot dinosaurs are really fun. They all have their own separate move and attack patterns so encounters are different depending on what you face. + you actually need to properly aim in this game. Most dinos can pounce instantly on you before you can fully draw back your bow so it can get pretty hectic at times. and janky
