Curious if there a lot of outfit styles and if there's an endgame set you can find? Ignore the second part if it's considered spoilers. Super excited, it's going to be a slow ass week.

The videos posted look awesome; sitting here with a PS4 Pro in my shopping cart debating lol..

Hey moron

Oh thank God, not much more of this to read then.

Any chance someone can answer my question? This thread is moving too fast:

Does a 1080p TV benefit from a Pro?

Maybe not the right thread; but specifically for this game for instance... is there a certain set of "graphical options" geared towards a Pro running at 1080p?

Thanks!

Yeah downsampling and some other differences, depending on the effort of devs.
It's actually more a great 1080P machine than a 4K machine imo. But devs DO need to offer downsampling.

The only expectation Sony has really stated for Horizon is for it to be the next big Sony franchise, the next Uncharted pretty much, which they said at PSX on stage, and I feel like they've said that in interviews.

I would make a petition if they ported those games to PS4.

The petition would demand that they unport those games and port something worthwhile.
The Fuse, Lair, and Haze collection.
Developed by Bluepoint to make it worse
$60.
Stage time at every Sony conference.
PS4Pro Bundle.
 
I don't think Sony hopes that but it shows that they expect a lot from this title. I mean the marketing has been humongous.

Ok...that is a good thing, and it is probably for good reason, it is clearly going to review well. It is sony's job to do this. Should they not market their games and try to create franchises or something?

Hey moron, see that S at of end "posts". You do, Good. It's there for a reason. Also, guess what, I never refuted that the Combat will be better than Witcher or Skyrim as if that's anything to write home about.

Wow man, great way of getting your opinion out there.

What's wrong with the publisher promoting their game.

And if you read the impressions it really looks like this game is redefining (or joining Dragons Dogma) what can be expected from a open world game combat system.
 
Citation needed. You know what Sony expects how? You think this because they are advertising it? Does sony marketing the game offend you or something? What a ridiculous post. Sony is trying to SELL a game and make it a franchise going forward, god forbid they support Guerilla. They don't expect it to change the world.

Explain how you know this is what Sony expects?

None of those links say anything about changing WRPG's for the future, says they expect it to be a big new franchise for them and it will be.,,, did you even read the articles you posted? They say it has potential to be a big new franchise, how is that "Change the future of WRPG's forever"? If you reached any further.....
 
I'll put all my hopes in finding a copy this week.

Here at Brazil we have the Carnival next week, a 5 day holiday of stupidity, drunk people and terrible music dissemination.

I just wish I had my copy to play at home. Even my girlfriend wants some game to watch or play during this holiday.

Sony Brazil, help me. Help us Brazilians

So wait, I'm supposed to be kind and neighbourly when dude doesn't take the time to read my post. At least you live up to that Jesus avatar.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
All I've seen is ads for horizon. Anybody seen any Billboards and the like?

Edit: and y'all getting trolled hard up in here man
UC4 had advertisement on Amazon packages I ordered. UC4 was definitely bigger.

It makes sense because UC was an established franchise. While they have big hopes for Horizon and they are promoting it well in general, they want to make sure Horizon sticks before they go all out with it like UC.
 
Not to say that it's a reason, but aside from some of the very early small enemies, who in their right mind would dare fight these huge things with a little spear?
 
Yes, they've been pushing it, but it was nowhere near the level of Uncharted 4. Not even close.

Well, maybe I don't remember that much, you could be right. It has been the most marketed game coming from Sony aside U4, concede me that at least. :p

Again, my point is that there are big hopes on this game. I think it's going to deliver on all fronts.
 
Sort of. I've now been across it horizontally completely, but the edges have not been filled out

I'm playing on pro

So I'm about to cross over into
the main huge segment of the map
how far is that from where your at? Also did you stop doing all sidequest now?

You sound mad and confused that Sony believes this blockbuster game will be their next big franchise. Didn't read anything in there to corroborate your strawman - that Sony thinks it's better than all the WRPG out there and will redefine the genre and all that. As has been said already, you're projecting.

So moving goal posts again?

Lol what is this horseshit? Take a fucking break, guy.

Why are the Horizon threads like this all of a sudden?

People should drop discussing with Ashes.

When a poster has a lifetime total of 31 posts and more than 1/3 of them is trying to hype check people on Horizon threads, you know that the fight will never end.

Which site does this person review for?

The WRPG comment was about what others were saying in this thread, AKA it has no bearing on these articles which are about what SONY wants from this game. If Nintendo came out and announced a new IP that will represent their future, expectations are raised. Same thing here. And let's say Horizon does nothing new while still being a solid/great game, which you seem to believe it will, what does that say about the system its publisher wants it to represent. Hey, buy a PS4 and play our skinned up Far Cry game.
 
I'm not exactly sure what's been said between these two? I'm assuming Phil is talking about Killzone Shadowfall and hinting that GG has made huge strides from then?
He said working on the Horizon review made him look back at the Killzone Shadowfall reviews and he thinks there were a lot of forgiving reviews for the game.

GG has taken even more steps back from Shadowfall. 5/10.
