I really hope that first city is explorable.

I just preordered the game. This will likely become the next big game for Sony.
As in that the Witcher 3 is a hallmark of good combat? Because it isn't. W3 combat is terrible.
Dragon's Dogma is the undeniable king of open-world WRPG combat. None have topped it.
Why would you hope that Horizon has bad combat mechanics?

It needs to be RPG enough for the detractors ,and be good enough as a whole package.
MGSV's excellent gunplay, controls and deep sandbox is never brought up whenever discussing that game in the context of comparing open-worlds, because people prefer to shit on barren world, Chapter 3 and lolstory.
Nobody brings up Dragon's Dogma because not enough people has played it to see the light.
Ayyyyy lol perfect timing

I'm sure there's a lot to discover in both games.
Yeah it could be.
Yeah I don't agree with that. I think Horizon has a better chance of being more interesting.

It is. There a gif from the Decima engine panel from PSX where they show a small glimpse of the inside of the city.

I just realized that Zelda and Horizon kinda have similar story premise, shit happened in the past, time skip forward to present and the main character go explore the open world and along the way will learn what happened during the time skip (a couple year in Zelda, a few centuries in Horizon)
He seems to avoid the rope caster take downs almost entirely from what I've seen

Again not denying that Horizon looks great, however, it looking great doesn't erase the amazing looking open world games we've had this gen.Horizon Zero Dawn is in a different league, in my humble opinion
Link wakes up at least 100 years later in Zelda.

Yeah, watching that and him saying it's invisible with that big ass health bar and tag on it, was the height of stupidity. I hope GG address that in difficulty as well.
I dunno about AC:Unity, but I played Witcher 3 on PC and it didn't impress me as much as Horizon.
Horizon just looks ridiculously good.

ah so that's were the shit spilled over here in that zeldavshorizon thread, the last two pages were horrible
like dungeons places with harder enemies, some platforming, more info on what happened and how it happened to the world, special gear or abilities. (cauldrons have been kept under wraps for these previews)
yes, normal, dynamic or custom options
from what ive seen, your health regenerares up to 33% of your max health. now i understand you can take or pick up some stuff to boost your health (green bar below your health bar) and potions to heal yourself
Corridor open world overview
The best draw distance with actual content i have seen in a game on a console as a exclusive from a first party.
And on top of that it runs at 2160c on PS4 Pro, which few games have been able to achieve so far.
I really hope more devs get better with the technique to hit that, especially since it seems to run smoothly.

Dragon's Dogma will remain the king until we get Dragon's Dogma 2.
Capcom pls.
MGSV will also probably hold the crown for best stealth game for a long time IMO. Until Ubi steps up and gives us a SC sequel and even then, it's iffy.
Here's a new gif I created:
God damn.

this looks like one of the best new IP's I have ever seen this and even past generation. The scale and volume of the game looks great and it all seems so fresh whilst taking small aspects from other games as well.

Said it when the first trailer came out this is the game that puts Guerilla Games really on the map. No offence to the amazing Killzone franchise.

yep this is not as a diss towards the comapny or anything while I like Killzone, when I look at this I would never have guessed it was Guerilla Games that made this game

Yeah well, technically I don't think anyone expected anything less from GG. They're PS wizards.

Well only GG does scfi and mech art like this so it would be easy if you follow there games.
Still i do get your point .

Yep, although unfortunately there hasn't been a game yet that has been a good balance in terms of quality with all aspects of these kinds of games up until this point. Dragon's Dogma did some things better than anyone else, and many things that were mediocre. The Witcher 3 ended up doing more things right, and better than in Dragon's Dogma, yet failed miserably at the most important part: gameplay (specifically combat and skill trees since that was over 75% of the "gameplay" for those who want to argue gameplay is more than just combat).

totally not just art more in the direction of being open world, a competitor for other open world games and nailing the overall vibe of the world with stellar set peices, animation etc
EDIT: In all honesty people stop turning this into a FFXV vs Witcher 3 vs Horizon thread. All the games already compared and listed have their unique aspects that make them special and so does this. Who gives a shit `well witcher 3 has better combat etc. Enjoy the preview videos and talk about the game
Here's a new gif I created:
Where is this gameplay from?
it's amazing to see how far games have come, I don't think anyone expected when Sony announced the PS4 specs that open world games could look like that.

PM the guy in the vid. You never know.
Yeah, someone actually brought up Horizon having an "agenda" because the main character isn't like 90% of the games out there.

Fuck, the combat keeps impressing me. It looks so good. I can only imagine how intense the cauldrons are going to be.
