It has free climbing ... using procedurally placed climbing points.
So any rock\cliff\mountain in the game, no matter how small or insignificant is gonna have a yellow thing in it? i sincerely doubt it even just from an art design stand point (imagine every fucking rock with an ugly yellow thig in it) but the guy specifically say "ANY".
Not free climbing then. Just large scale automation of climbing points.
Of course.. you always rip off the better game.
They arent wrong tho
That's kind of how all game-traversal works already (even BOTW). Just replace 'yellow-thing' with 'navmesh' - but same principle.
Even if it's 1:1 with collision data - someone pre-placed those
Dont insult children. My son is playing it right now and he hates climbing in BoTW.
Free climbing in BotW was the most "immersive" game feature I had seen in ages. You're looking at it purely from a realism standpoint when the visual style should have dissuaded any notions of that, immediately.
Yeah I disagree with you on this one about as strongly as one can get. You've never gone rock climbing or seen good rock climbers have you. They can look like this on a sheer cliff. But again, this game is not about realism.BOTW climbing is laughable, no respect to terrain.
Good for children.

Imagine being this upset about this kind of thing. If it didn't have free-climbing, then people would bitch.BOTW climbing is laughable, no respect to terrain.

It's fun though.
Took me way too long to realize exactly what was going on in this gifAC copied that and modified it better:
Stealing that feature from botw required some balls on their part but it was still a dick move, and that gif only reaffirm this.AC copied that and modified it better:

Robot dinosaurs still have a reasonable perfectly logical explanation in the game, they are still believable in that universe for people who followed the plot of the game and some side documents.
Now Genshin Impact looks good. It seems like they are actually holding onto something. Zelda really gets a pass on things. I dont think any other game wouldnt be laughed out if their mountains were just some flat texture. Where angles, ledges, etc .. none of it mattered. For SOTC all those rules existed and its a PS2 game.While it's quite obvious it's not realistic at all (plus I know people on Sony threads love to shit on Nintendo games), you have to give credit to the insane amount of freedom a system like BotW's free climbing gives to the player. Genshin Impact basically does the same thing as well. I really hope HFW has true free climbing like these games; the open world in the first Horizon title can be improved in so many ways, and this is definitely one of them.

It allowed for a truly go anywhere, do-anything-you-can-think-of gameplay setup. Often times you were limited only by your imagination. It was about gameplay.
Reading this board, I really get the sense that some people don't actually like gams. They just like simulations of real life and they want to get as close to that, and then claim some sort of ... I don't know, victory? "Oh I like this thing that is best in class, so therefore I am the best." Doesn't work that way I'm afraid.

I feel bad for people who can't understand the pure joy of this game.
