What if Horizon: Zero Dawn was made in 1996?

What I think HZD could have looked like if it was made for the PS1. Inspired by the likes of Tomb Raider and the old RE games.

Everything was modelled, textured, and rendered by me in Blender.

Vid resolution is 320x240 for added authenticity!

Love it!

I know it's pure nostalgia, but I love the low 3d look. Get me that pixel crawling goodness

I'm a very nostalgic guy and i can play 2d PSX games anytime. But i'd rather take a kick in the nuts before i would play PSX 3d games.

That was hilarious. I really liked it.

Clearly it's not psx level graphics but it was cute and getting killed by the watcher was on point for mgs style sneaking back in the day
 
pretty cool. As someone that grew up with a ps1 (but never owner one), they did a great job giving it a PS1 feel, no doubt.
 
Millennials who didn't actually live through the PSX era shouldn't try to recreate it.

I feel like people in here don't actually remember what PS1 games looked like.

Even the worst ones weren't this bad, and they didn't even get the texture warping right.

It's like they looked at some PSX games on MobyGames and tried to recreate the look.

Gatekeeping much?

On topic, I'm sure it was fun making this. Good attempt.

People are trying to recreate something they didn't have any first-hand experience with, as this clearly shows.

I think the Bloodborne one was decent, even if it was basically just Nightmare Creatures.

And what is wrong with that? Why should they not attempt such an endeavor?
 
Tail of the Sun PSX

I remember renting this for the weekend. I had no idea what to do and ended up making no progress during my time with it. The point of this is there was a lot of variation in the look of early 3d titles. To the people claiming this doesn't look like a PSX title, get bent. There is no standard to how a PSX game should look.

Tail of the Sun has always been considered one of the worst early PSX games. This is even worse than that, and never would've passed SCEA's "Five Star" approval in 1996.
 
Why did I even click on this? I want those 10 seconds back, OP!!
