Aloy is going to probably be one of my favorite characters ever.

i like the game so far but the more i play it the more i realize that it is more similar to Far Cry than The Witcher 3's type of open world games
about enemies variety, i thought there was only 26, lol, you can still encounter enemies that are not listed in the journal, which means there are a lot more, not to mention the animals( i know they are harmless but i still count them)
apparently the game is cheap on money\shards

How so? I've never played any of the FC games.
There was a patch already available yesterday, wasn't very big though.
Good to know

Nice, just got my copy through from shopto, they deliver again. 43gb install the. Here we gooo haha. Is the dlc code live yet or will that only be redeemable tomorrow?
Thank you!
Working at GS i've only ever seen maybe less than a handful of games that have released before the midnight release. And we had only found out about doing this one at 9pm a couple days ago (at least when they told us in the stores) But ya im really not surprised that they are doing this and going to try and do this more. Honestly, I would think themain reason is to save money on payroll. If they can hand it out at 9 (when...at least my store usually closes) then they only need someone there till like 10 maybe 10:30 as opposed to like 1am like it normally is for most midnights. And we have a few people come in between then and midnight but honestly really not a lot at all. That's 3 hours of payroll per person that they would have working for the midnight, and w.e it costs to keep the store open a couple more hours. So ya thats like pretty much at least 9hrs of payroll saved if they do it early and not wait till midnight. So ya i could tell you, its not really because of any other reason they are doing it other than it saves them money and is more cost efficient. But ya, I guess this is really the only time their greed has ever ended up benefiting the customer lol

Preloaded and ready to go.
Love what I'm reading in here about the quality and variety of quests and such. Can't wait to settle down tomorrow night and just lose myself.

Just finished the intro segment, and holy fucking shit this game is gorgeous in every way. I'm just playing on a regular PS4 and it's still absolutely ridiculous. It runs rock solid and there's so much detail to the world. It's not just about the visuals, though. The gameplay is fluid, the score seems lovely, and the story is interesting. I can already tell this game is going to be something special. Would love to play all night, but I've gotta save it for tomorrow.

Most more advanced weapons have (not actually a spoiler but just in case)
machine part requirements to buy apart from just metal pieces. You can always sell them and then buy back (at a slightly inflated price) if you find out you need it

I'm really disappointed that the game seems to be a rather by-the-numbers, Ubisoft-esque open world game.
The reviews made it sound so much more than that.
It's gone from a must buy to a cheap buy when second hand.

Young Aloy is so damn adorable.
The only other game thats ever made me feel like that from the very beginning was the intro to the TLoU when Sarah dies :-(
This game is amazing on so many different levels.
I was trying to hold back those feels when she ran up with the berries in her hand and they turned her away for being an outcast.

Hijacking giantic robotic dinosaurs and setting them to fight against each other in a huge open world setting is now officailly 'by the numbers'.
God help us...

Seems to be?, have you played it?, I'll assume from your last statement you haven't, do you even own a PS4?
What exactly was the point of your post?

Ok, I'm getting confus here. So is this an open world RPG like TW3 or open world Ubisoft mediocrity? If it's like TW3 I'll get it tomorrow, if it's Ubi it'll be second hand or bargain bin.

I already put in 4 hours in the game. This feels nothing like a Ubisoft open world. I'm getting Witcher 3 and Tomb Raider vibes.

Woah there, there's too much defensive attitude in this post to even know where to start.
From the videos I've seen it looks a lot more like an Ubisoft game, kinda like Far Cry it seems.
I haven't played it yet, I'll reserve my judgement till I do, but you've really got a hard on to discredit this game.
it's like the witcher 3
Watching isnt the same as playing.
Apparently the actual combat and gameplay is a step above Ubi stuff, to say the least.
Shh, we don't need opinions of people who have actually played the game, we need more hyperbole dammit!
Tell me more about how the robot Dino open world rpg is derivative...
How do you form that impression? I've played the opening chapters and it really isn't rote at all.

Why would you say this when nobody who's playing the game here and sharing the impressions actually thinks this?

You quoted me being pleasantly surprised in the review thread mate. I was glad my impressions didn't seem to be right - but everything I've seen since has gone back on that.
Why would I try to 'discredit' a game in the first place? Madness.

Because I'm basing my opinion on what I've seen for myself not on what other GAF posters tells me I should think?
Isn't that the point of having critical thought?
Exactly, I don't know what the point of your post is.

Again, "seems to be", how did you draw this conclusion?

The point of my post was to voice my opinion on the game and how my perception of what it is has changed since the reviews hit - the whole point of the discussion forum you're on. Do you need to own the game and have played it to post in an OT now?
What sent me here was the Quick Look that Giant Bomb have done, which showed me a gameplay loop which seems entirely dull.

There is absolutely nothing ubisoft esque about this. And pulling out because it's an exclusive card doesn't help your argument one bit

If I remember correctly, Gamecritics gave UC4 a 5/10.
