Show me "I" in the above.

Don't do it. Like kat just let the Apple fall

Considering it is from Guerrilla of all developers, I would remain skeptical.

Ya happy?

Are we seriously being this rude? If you don't want to have an actual discussion, go to a youtube comment section.

What discussion is there to be had when you make a definitive statement than backtrack? Could've simply said I don't like their games so I'm being skeptical fair enough, that's not what you said tho

 

[silva1991]

You know, Aloy, we really are all the games.

Lol

Watchers side roll:

It looks so goofy I love it

Perhaps we should list similarities to Pix the Cat, just to be ready for the inevitable?

• Console exclusive to Playstation
• Developed by a company with "games" in their name
• Played with a DS4
• Looks challenging
• Colorful
• Works just fine on a 4K display
• Favorably received by critics
• Praised for surprising amount of depth

It is exactly what I said. I clearly stated with my first post that "I would remain skeptical." And then people responded with comments stating: "not this shit again" and stating that they made fun okay-good games. I then explained why I felt that way.

* Pix is a cat - Cats have fur - There's people wearing outfits made of fur in Horizon.

Ya happy?

Um... that isn't the post he was quoting.

I was just interested in how he/she would respond. Of course, it was to quote another post that had nothing to do with what we were discussing lol.

Anyway, back to Ubisoft and "lol GG".

He guys I think I saw Aloy jump

Mario ripoff confirmed?

 

[pixelbox]

You're right! I did some digging around and the similarities goes deeper then I first imagined. Horizon also got:

-walking
-options accessible in the game menu
-In game story
-gameplay
-both got the letter o in the title

Maybe you should add them to your list

Lol you win!

I have used "I" for almost every time I have refereed to game except once, and I can seriously go through each one of my posts on the lasts page with clear evidence of that. If I clearly have only used "I" more than "they," I think I deserve the benefit of the doubt.

You are seriously just trying to provoke me, and are trolling yourself. If you had been reading any of my posts you would know this.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Just move on. Let's focus on what else Horizon is copying instead.

But them forests tho

Right? Look paper thin to me.

 

[WaffleTaco]

Lol. Horizon copying is a very poor argument for someone to make. It is basically someone arguing that a genre having "x" characteristics makes it bad.

if Guerilla had any sense they'd copy Knack

 

[Chris Metal]

It may be time.

Stop! No more temptation!

lol

i admit this is the first time i've ever entertained notions of getting a pro

You both seem a little unsure...

 

[Krakin]

I don't think it aged well at all. I think the reason it was praised for its time was for its graphics and its multiplayer. Someone who would play it today, will likely not consider it as good as someone who did when it launched.

Oh so now it hasn't aged well?

 

[silva1991]

.

Just think of how many games Horizon is copying by making the protagonist a human.

Step up your game GG!

 

[WaffleTaco]

I mean I played it in 2014 and I didn't think it aged well then.

 

[GIANKRATOS]

Anyone noticed that alloy has no interaction with the vegetation and her clothes don't get wet after she comes in contact with water?

I've just noticed that there is actually a wet effect after you swim

2:55 circa, slow down the video if you want to see better

Love it

This game is gonna be the new Dark Souls when it comes to infinite rolling...

 

[Primethius]

So, what's the order that I need to play the series in to understand the story in this game?

Chronological? By release date? Another one entirely?

I kind of wanted to play Watch Dogs 2 as it's the most recent but maybe starting from Assassin's Creed 1 is the best idea.

 

[Krakin]

You're shifting the goalpost to make a point that is going nowhere. Fact of the matter is the studio has made games that were received well by critics and users alike. I guess we can't trust Nintendo since Super Mario Brothers certainly hasn't aged well smh.

All I was saying was that someone playing in 2017 might not think it aged well, based on my opinion that I do not think it aged well in 2014. And what does Nintendo have to do with this?

 

[GIANKRATOS]

I've made a quick gif so that maybe people will finally notice that the clothes get wet when you swim

Sorry for the quality, you can see it better in the video that i've linked before.

Dude, just move on, please. Several people already called you out.

You moving the goal post with each new post just makes things worse.

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

If you are going to respond, use more than a picture calling me a troll. Just because I have an opinion you do not like does not mean that you have the right to call me a troll.



I really did not see anything special about it to be honest.



I disagree. I think it will have great graphics definitely, as it looks amazing. I think it could have average to good gameplay, and good sound. However I think it is okay to remain skeptical of the story, the open world, and the quests themselves along with the little things involved with the games lie towers and collectibles.

Where is your preview write up?

I mean, to have an opinion this strong you must have played the game, right?

I really was not moving the goal post, just responding and clarifying, but yeah I am done trying to explain myself. It is a waste of my time and everyone else's.

Watchers side roll:

Very pleasantly surprised to at the amount of animations and reactions that the machines seem to have. I've watched a good deal of footage and they seem to do different stuff almost every time based on the situation.

 

[Javin98]

Horizon has foliage, it ripped off Mother Nature!!

Seriously, what is going on in this thread?

 

[isaacnukem]

Bottom line I guess is it's not original. Reviewers should deduct 7 points outta ten for that.

People are pretending iteration is inherently negative. Like it doesn't happen in any other medium.

whatever will the game steal next.

Yeah notice this as well.

 

[isaacnukem]

The review embargo can't lift soon enough so we'll be able to know what's what about the game. Personally excited for the title and hoping it delivers, we're getting fewer and fewer AAA WRPGs as time goes by.

I am Loving the sense of depth in lighting in this gif. The volumetric fog and lights are really uplifting the whole night scene.

I wonder if it's thanks to the KojiPro team, they said one of their contributions to the engine was in the lighting department.

 

[nycgamer4ever]

It is a valid reason, they have not once produced a great game.



I didn't say that their games weren't fun in their own way, but they have never succeeded to make an amazing game as the poster who I quoted said. Their stories have always been bad to okay, their graphics have always been great, and their shooting has always been good, and their campaigns/level design have been mixed.



Because I don't think their games are good I can't say my opinion? I think they are bland shooters with great graphics (for their time), with average level design and a bad story with bad characters. I have every right to be skeptical.

You are telling other people to be cautious because of solely your opinion on GG track record, assuming everyone agrees with you. There ARE fans of GG you know.

Shadow Fall and Until Dawn were already extremely strong in the lighting dept.

Hmm can't decide if I should preorder digital or physical from Gamestop. The double-sided poster you get with preorder looks really good.

Yeah, what time was that? Was it 5pm UK? Think I'm at the doctors then so may just miss the live stream... Hope it's a long one though (the game showing, not my appointment).

Went ahead and finally preordered today, was gonna go LE from GAME but the £70 price for the extra two outfits I'm sure you will have a chance to unlock at somepoint and a mini artbook couldn't justify the cost. I had £8 reward points to use I can't on PSN so £36 for the standard ed and preorder bonus seems decent for me, plus I have the LE Art of Horizon hardback on order as well for my love of the concept art, so got that covered.
