Sensitivity Options!, Spanish Support!, Hide Headgear!, Selling Options!, Inventory Customization!
My girlfriend is gonna lose her damn mind when I tell her this.
I just wanna thank Hermen Hulst and the team personally for adding these features for my brother and girlfriend to enjoy the game, they'll definitely be able to pass the game this time. Keep on reading The Gaf Hermen and friends! Thanks again.
Just out of curiosity, what feature in this patch is the one that would have your gf excited? If it's the Spanish support I find that initial lack in the US copies is so bizarre since past Sony games did include it... my Mexican copy came with three language tracks (English, Spanish, Portuguese) so its not like it didn't fit! I would've loved the crafting icons showing in my screen a few weeks ago before I got my Platinum. Still glad they're adding those (now give me a NG+ and I'll beat it again!)I just wanna thank Hermen Hulst and the team personally for adding these features for my brother and girlfriend to enjoy the game, they'll definitely be able to pass the game this time.

Because it's not common to see this kind of support weeks after the release of a strictly singlenplayer AAA game. Especially one that doesn't have microtransactions or any online bullshit whatsoever.They had similarly great support of their Killzone games, so I'm not sure why we're all acting so surprised. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they're getting deserved recognition, but they've been offering long-term and substantial patch support for their games for years now.

Yea I'm playing thought zelda now and it's just as amazing even without being as technically impressive. That's a great description for both really, they feel like linear experiences with how polished they are. In Zelda the in doors locations, discovery, quirky characters and art are a cut above the rest, while Horizon genuinely looks like a painting at times and Aloy's bow feels as good as a shooter with amazing boss fights. It's really hard to pick one over the other and you really have to play both.Screenshots and even videos cannot do this game justice.
I really can't convey just how stunning it looks in HDR on my OLED TV (on PS4 Pro). And just as it's made your jaw-drop, it then gets even better again, and again, and again.. as you progress through the game and discover new areas. It really is on another level altogether. Only Uncharted 4 comes close, and that wasn't open-world.
Perhaps excluding the original Crackdown, It's the first open-world game that I've truly enjoyed. There's not even the slightest bit of open-world jank in sight. It feels like an insanely polished linear game, only it isn't linear.
EDIT: I should say that I also thoroughly enjoyed BotW, and whilst nowhere near the same level of Horizon technically (obviously), it has similar characteristics in that it feels like a linear-quality experience but open-world. It's amazing that we've finally got to this level.. to a point where I can now actually enjoy open-world games. I look forward to seeing RDR2 later this year (hopefully) and where Rockstar can get to this generation too. What a year for gaming. Amazing.
Still so impressed that the developers went from Killzone to this. There's just no going back.
Great support.
Sweet Jesus, this game is already nearly perfect. Add NG+ and we'll be there!
I think that's a problem with the PS4 system in general. It doesn't "know" that you're taking a photo in HDR mode, so when you view the photo back at the dashboard the levels are all janky.
Poses in photo mode eh. Legit nice to see BOTW is already inspiring features in other games.
I wonder how it happens. Maybe their dev kits have better cooling so they don't notice it? Other games have had stuff like this too, where scenes with not a lot going on would make the fans go berserk. Like the blacksmith in Nioh and the helicopter in MGS5. It always makes me think something is overheating.
Didn't GTAV already do this?
Nice update, the one I'm looking forward to the most is hiding headgear
Wait so if you bought Horizon in the United States up until now you couldn't play it with the Spanish dub, let alone even Spanish subtitles??? Is this true?
That seems like such an odd thing to miss! It's not like it couldn't fit into the game! I know this because my physical copy I bought in Mexico had options for three language tracks (English, Latin-American Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese).
If there was a Spanish option Sony always tended to include it in the US release, and not only for Latinamerica/Europe (I know for a fact Uncharted had it since the first one. The Last of Us as well on PS3 and 4). This is so strange.
This is all very cool, but please give me NG+ now so I can experience it.
Mathijs (the game director) replied to someone on Twitter and told them that they're aware of the requests for it. So, it's probably coming down the line. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it comes alongside the DLC.
It did, yeah. Still, I think Zelda inspired it here. Zelda has shown that it's okay to have a serious open world game and be silly with this type of shit at the same time.Didn't GTAV already do this?

Good stuff. Map filters should have been there from the start but better late than neverVersion 1.20 will include a slider that will adjust the camera/aim sensitivity, supports a Map legend where you are able to filter on icons, more HUD customisation options (hide enemy stats, quest markers and tutorial tips), the ability to hide head gear, and more For a detailed list of patch notes please follow this link.

Feel free to disagree. It's not like I've been isolated from those games; I own every console. Yet I still feel this way about it.No. Zelda was "inspired" by games like GTA and WatchDogs, not the other way around.
Zelda is a fine game, but the way people give it credit for inventing stuff that was in non Nintendo games for the past 10 years is.... annoying.
- More HUD customisation options (hide enemy stats, quest markers and tutorial tips)
- Added a sell stack option at merchants when double tapping the square icon.
- Added the option to categorize and sort your inventory.
- Added the feature in the Sell menu at merchants, you can now press triangle to mark one or more items to sell items quicker.
Do you really think that GG made their first-ever open world game and didn't look at GTA for inspiration? We get it, you love Zelda, but enough already. This is not a "Zelda invented X thing and inspired Y game, even though those things existed or have been in development for years!" thread.Feel free to disagree.

Fuck me. Guerilla Cambridge shot up the ranks to becoming my favourite dev. Love the photo mode additions.

I'm only talking about the poses thing. Where are you getting all thisDo you really think that GG made their first-ever open world game and didn't look at GTA for inspiration?

If you really think they saw Breath of the Wild and then magically coded up an entire plethora of systems for photo mode rather than having worked on them during development, you're just being blinded by your infatuation. These kinds of things are largely figured out and lined up during production, and if they aren't crucial the the main game they are pushed aside until they can get to them, even if its post-launch (and based on what people ask for).
Look​ at you being cleverMust be why it's so hard to put together a satisfying timeline for Zelda.
Game keeps going back in time to invent stuff that was already there.

Console game development works by maximizing usage of all available resources at the target FPS. If you think they saw BotW and just suddenly came up with the poses out of thin air since release, rather than having it in the design doc and just not 100% ready then you are simply misinformed or willfully ignorant. The fact that they were able to add poses, looking at the camera, extra filters, etc. means they had set aside resources for it in the main game.I'm only talking about the poses thing. Where are you getting all this
I guess I am. I'm pretty confident GG can whip up some poses in two months time.Console game development works by maximizing usage of all available resources at the target FPS.
