Are Sonybros still buttmad about their literal-who Horizon not selling well and being technically inferior to a fucking Nintendo game?

>>381101241

Me too

why are there a bunch of goblins just hanging out in random spots. why don't they ever do anything? they sometimes cook stuff, but how do they get it? you never see them foraging or hunting. they just stand around scratching their ass

>>381101664
I don't think you've even played the game. You can see them riding around on horses and killing stuff, as well as attacking NPCs.

I just collected all 900 korok seeds

but that is an amusement park designed game. Hyrule has the design of an amusement park but has no interesting attractions

but none of those things matter. The NPCs don't die, them riding their horses don't do anything.

If all they're doing is something visually different, that doesn't make the game better

and that was makes it great.
technically any open world game is amusement park but this one makes you work more than just going thru stalls each within reach of other.
amusement park comparison mostly comes cause everything is usually close to each other in other open world games.
So far Xenoblade X and Zelda - one of the few to get some space going on, aside of some MMO games but those are ruined by other players.
reminds me of low populated RO server when you know shit about anything there

>>381100901

Almost every single shrine is different. The only exceptions are the dozen, "blessing" shrines which are rewards for completing world-based puzzles and quests, and the Test of Strengths.

>W-well... Y-you haven't even played it..!
I've posted a time stamp of my Wii U game pad with my hours played like 4 times.
The map is boring and empty. Witcher 3 and even Far Cry have more dense maps.
Honestly, a lot of it comes down to indoor hardware. The Wii U and Switch can't support the foliage that the other consoles can.

>Any other game has a lot of empty space in their world
WOWWWW THIS GAME IS SHIT. DAE LITERALLY NOTHING IN THIS GAME?
>Nintendo has a game with a lot of empty space in the world
Wow. I really like how they were brave enough to have empty breathing space :)

Fuck you /v/. I liked the game but you can't deny there is jack shit to do in its world.
Encountering enemies is shit because it's the same 3 or 4 enemies and the combat is absolute shit.
Collect 900 Korok seeds, I don't have to explain how shit that one is.
The only driving force through the game is exploring places you haven't been, but once you've done all that I do not see any reason to pick up the game again.

>>381103021
>Nintendo actually gives the player things to do with the open world which is much more interactive than the world of any other open world game

>>381103021

The game creators have already stated that you aren't supposed to collect all the Korok seeds you autist.

>>381103220
nigga if I wanted to do shit in a Nintendo-designed open world I'd just go back to dicking around in front of Peach's castle

>>381103220

>>381103220

>>381102271
Its to bad the draw distance for most stuff on the ground is 1 foot

>>381103326
okay. even better
now the only thing to do in that open world is fight the same 3 enemies and nothing else.

>>381101664
>you never see them foraging or hunting.
Clearly you've never played the game.

You literally see them do both of these things

>>381101664
>you never see them foraging or hunting.
did you even play the game? Like more than 5 minutes?

>>381104567
>>381104812
Yeah. The guy you're arguing is wrong about you never seeing them do that
but what the actual fuck does seeing them do that do for the game? It barely immersion since you see the SINGLE enemies who do that just repeat those few actions when you, the player, isn't engaged in combat with them.

>>381105340
Where are you taking those goalposts mister?

>>381105489

>>381105850

Jesus Christ, just because someone has a differing opinion doesn't mean they're samefagging. I agree in the sense that they do have actions other than fighting but I also believe those actions do absolutely nothing.

>people legitimately still this brainwashed by nintendo shilling


how many years until people start admitting the flaws in this game? same shit with wind waker, TP, and skyward sword. you retards will get over this and realize what a repetitive, empty snore of a game this is.

Ugh, so Zelda is pretty much an MGSV clone at the moment. Didnt believe I would see something like this.

>>381100901

The combat in this game is absolute trash. There's no depth what so ever and you can just spam the flurry attack with no effort. It's also amazingly fun to fight the exact same two enemies doing the exact same things for the course of the entire game

>>381110075

No it is not empty.

The game was explicitely done for female preference.

Consider the following.

Through history, men hunt while the young and the female gather fruits and plants.

LOZ basically went from a male oriented game(fast,hunting, challenging and non gathering oriented) to a gathering game which is more suited to female inate preference for stuff simply being there to be taken.

run from point A to point B finding the birds. essentially a fetch quest with nothing else to add.

That quest was better than the others but the way that that's worded was horrible. Do you mean chop down 200+ trees for their wood over and over and then find characters in incredibly obvious locations. Still a fetch quest but you got to see something at the end other than a text box that said 'thank you'

The content in BotW is as involved as the content in ANY Zelda game. But you don't hear people complaining about the content in other Zelda games.

Why not?

Probably because /v/ desperately wants to try and find a flaw with BotW.

http://www.gamesradar.com/were-all-talking-about-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-developers-explain-how-its-shaping-the-future-of-games/

Benjamin Plich was the lead designer on Assassin's Creed: Unity and For Honor, and is currently employed as lead game designer at Montreal's Reflector Entertainment.
>Breath of the Wild showed something most designers already know, but which is hard to achieve... [these games are] evolving from classic open worlds to an open-game model - open progression following each player's intrinsic motivations, adaptive challenge curve and economy, open narrative structures, and so on.
Damien Monnier served as senior designer on The Witcher 3 at CD Projekt RED
>Breath of the Wild has managed to bring classic open world mechanics together while not relying on them to guide the player through its world. You go and explore it because you wonder what's out there, not because a loot icon tells you to.
>Nintendo have raised the bar when it comes to world crafting and this sense of total immersion I get when I play it. While its world includes classic open-world activities, collectibles and loot-filled mobs, it definitely doesn't feel overloaded and allows the focus be on the exploration. You want to explore this land whether or not you are on a quest, or being tasked to collect/gather something. You know, If you were to remove all NPCs, quests and mobs, I would still take pleasure in exploring that beautiful world.

Tommy François, Ubisoft's franchise director.
>For every creatives, it's a lesson. The game [BotW] seems to tell us : put yourself in question. We realize that we are far from excellency.

I think Joseph started too late with Zelda. Wind Waker or TP was probably his first. If those are your first introductions with the magical world of Zelda than OoT (and the 2D Zelda's) will look kinda bland in comparison. BotW is nothing like those two so I can understand where he's coming from but I don't agree with it.

There's a lot that could've been done better; more enemy variety, more weapon variety, more temples, different kind of interiors for the divine beasts, less blessing shrines, less combat (or more diverse combat) shrines. But there's also a lot that it does right. There are quite a few overworld quests that you have to stumble upon. Exploration is actually fun and not a chore as there aren't invisible walls (except for the map borders) and combat is fun. I actually like the weapon breaking mechanic.

A lot of things are nitpicky and not really a problem with the game but more of a wish that could've make the game ever better.

What i'd personally have liked was:
-a temple or 3 maybe half the size of the castle
-ruins that actually tell something about the world other than what they're named
-more enemy types
-a longer story

but that's about it.

BoTW's world felt more like an actual place than any other open world game I have ever played. Yes it did start to feel stale after a while but I still think it was a very good game and laid a great foundation for future Zeldas. I know ninty likes to reinvent their franchises but I'm hoping they give this physics based open world thing at least one more go since it has a lot of potential I think.

They just need to come up with better quests/rewards honestly.

>>381113536

>>381113810
It felt like a real environment, but not a world. Every town and enemy camp feels like it's in an isolated bubble completely separated from anything going on around it.

>>381100901
Nice hyperbole
BotW actually feels like a living world, it has shit tons of interaction
Exploration is good because you actually have to find things instead of being spoonfed with a gorillion markers

It's another '/v/ will never get over BotW' episode.

>>381100901
Because everyone wanted an open world Zelda game but didn't realize that it was going to be shit. Seriously fuck this empty hollow unfulfilling experience of a game.

>Seriously fuck this empty hollow unfulfilling experience of a game.

I guess everyone else is wrong and you must be right. Thank god you're here.

>>381118797
I spent 200 hours in the game and I loved it, but wtf I hate it now, thanks anon-kun

open world is fine if you're not a competionist
stop trying to 100% every game, you're not a kid from a poor family that can only have one game per season anymore

>technically inferior

Oh no. It's fucking retarded.

i'm seriously considering to get this game just because this shitposting is making me curious.

i remember how buttblasted /v/ was about bloodborne and that game was goty

>>381119986
I've played both and BotW doesn't even come close to Bloodborne in any quality they share, not even exploration.
BotW is problematic because only some people absolutely love it while the rest is trying to figure out what's so special about it.
Anyone who plays BB will like it unless they hate the genre, but only people who want a gigantic world with extreme freedom and little handholding who don't care about combat or content will like BotW.

What's the closest thing to BotW on PC :'(

>>381120631
Minecraft or Just Cause 2/3.

>>381102271
That .webm is the definition of deception.

>>381121105
It's from a video that shows every quality BotW has that Horizon doesn't, named "BotW vs Horizon details" or something like that, completely neglecting features that Horizon has that BotW doesn't.

>>381113063
Okay I watched the fucking video. Havent reached the combat part yet but it's pretty clear that the biggest flaw the game has is the unsatisfying brainless puzzle/combat/empty shrines.

Who knows who thought that was a good idea. But I bet BotW 2 will have dungeons.

>>381102231
There are examples of good stuff. Stuff that makes the game interesting. Like the Dragons flying around, for instance. The problem is that there isn't NEARLY enough of it for the size of the map. Also, the dragon's should have all been different boss fights that have a unqiue fight. Then after you beat them they become docile for you to get scales from infinitely, etc.

>>381119608
He's right though, HZD is a pretty game though

Botw.

>The content in BotW is as involved as the content in ANY Zelda game. But you don't hear people complaining about the content in other Zelda games.
Other Zelda games have fetch quests, yes, but they also have dungeons, a story and music. BotW skimped on a lot and tried to make up for it with more fetch quests, but it failed to do so.

How so?

Not him but for starters, vegetation not moving when you run through it is probably deliberate in Horizon.
The bushes you walk through in BotW deform and move completely unnaturally, it would look very weird with Horizon's more realistic models and textures.
When you walk through grass in BotW, it looks like there's a bubble around the player that pushes it away. Horizon has the same effect but only for the tall grass, and it sometimes looks really weird.

>If you say anything critical of nintendo you are a sony fanboy
Can somebody please explain this mentality to me?
Why is sony the antithesis of nintendo?

>>381124037
Not him, but most of the desperate shit posting is from jelly sony ponys. So it's more of a generalisation.

>>381124294
>most of the desperate shit posting is from jelly sony ponys
And you know this how?
I have been called a sony fanboy in the past for expressing the most simple criticisms of nintendo and I don't even own any current gen consoles

>>381124678
>I don't even own any current gen consoles

Why are you even here?

>>381123726
>Not him but for starters, vegetation not moving when you run through it is probably deliberate in Horizon.
Only because they clearly didn't want to waste PS4's already low resources on calculating basic physics.

Hell, even FF15 had vegetation reacting to the character's bodies. We've had full-body awareness together with environmental interaction, including vegetation, in PC games since mid-00s.

>>381114158
I disagree

>>381125540
But Horizon does have grass that bends when you walk through. It's the tall grass you can hide in easily. I'm sure they could have gone with that for all vegetation but
1. it looks weird in more realistic games because flowers with multiple stalks bend in strange ways
2. Horizon has more vegetation with large leaves, which would completely deform if they settled for what's in BotW
3. Horizon has way, way, way more different plants, all of which would need to interact in individual ways

It would have been too much effort for what it's worth, because it would require a much better system than BotW.

>>381122194
I didn't actually know you could chase fish onto land until just the other day.

>>381125314

>>381126040
>It would have been too much effort for what it's worth
No. It would've just melted the PS4.

>>381126260
Good for you.

>>381126459
I mean, that's an opinion.

>>381126040
You talking like world design is just afterthough.

In BotW the entire game was coded around the concept.

In Horizon, it wasn't. You can't just slap what BotW does into Horizon's world.

>slight fingering of a piano is music

>>381126603
thanks?

>>381126892
That's very much my opinion.
I firmly believe that BotW is an open world game to be open world and its features detrimental to it, while games like Horizon and Far Cry and Asscreed use it as a backdrop to combat. Horizon much more than the other two in that regard.

Is brevity dead? It's like those Star Wars reviews that are as long as the movie themselves, there's a point where you need to cut the God damn fat man. You can beat the fucking game in that amount of time.
