HZD is a boring overrated shit fest with medicore combat

>In 10 years, people will still be talking about innovative things that "Horizon Zero Dawn" does.

They definitely won't. It will be forgotten about in a year.

>>383187228
And yet, being this wonderfully fantastic masterpiece the developer can't make a camera which sticks Aloy to the left side of the screen permanently. Now the she's randomly on the right side all the fucking time and you need to either aim with bow or use the magic device to reset her position. Resident Evil 4 had this already fixed for fuck sake.

Also the camera is way too close to her anyway.

It took several months for the developer to add a fucking camera sensitivity slider.

This is why I hate AAA games. It's fucking retarded.

>>383189309
Combat in Horizon is way cooler than BotW though, you have a lot of synergies between weapons.

>>383187228
>In 10 years, people will still be talking about innovative things that "Horizon Zero Dawn" does
I don't even know how big of a retard you have to be to believe this. It's definitely not GOTY, it'll either be BOTW or Nier: Tomato Ketchup.

I like the game, but nah, the character is far from memorable. Serviceable and decent, yes, but nothing outstanding.

>>383187228
People stopped talking about it within a week or two, what the fuck is this fag even talking about?
Innovative? It's an ABC of open world games, this is why people don't take numales seriously.
Horizon was nothing but a huge virtue signal from the devs, from Sony and for others like "journalists" to heap praise on and put it on lists of games done "right".

Because some odd 4mil sales must mean something went right regardless of if you(we) like it. It's common sense that when you have a cash cow you don't let that shit bloat, you squeeze the milk, man. Look at Mario, Halo, Zelda, Forza, you don't have to like any of those franchises but if it sells, it'll keep going.

Because they are trying to justify a lot of things by marking it as a "success" such as

1) female leads in AAA games
2) massively inflated production costs
3) new IPs being given production costs to rival established IPs
4) HD graphcis still being more important than innovative gameplay ideas, and the main selling point in games period

People think this is about gender politics or sony vs. nintendo but it isn't, HZD is being pushed as a success because it reinforces the wobbling status quo in the game industry, the same status quo that's been raping the industry for quite some time, but keeps the super rich publishers super rich, and drowning out any creativity because of impossibly inflated production costs

It sounds goofy but its the lamented indie hipsters who have done this

Sounds like your average sonybro.

Zero Dark Deep Horizon oil fire will be forgotten in a year and not be on any top 10 lists. It's not as bad as The Last of Us which will be number 1, in most overrated game of all time, but better to be forgotten by history than remembered like that.

Also didn't Sony already bin the game?

Guys real talk even if it isnt the best game is it still alright? Like would you say it is above average or just garbage?

>>383187228
does new game plus on the new difficulty make you gather a fuckton of resources? and are craftables like arrows and line traps still require the same amount resources to craft or more because it's of the higher difficulty?
gathering resources in that game was the thing that killed the pace for me, the rest was fine. I never exactly had an issue gathering funding resources or running out, but I dreaded having every now and then having to take time to gather stuff when the numbers of resources started to get low, it was fun for the first 10 hours but gathering shit after that just because tedious, not to mention resource management in those menus where annoying.

I haven't played this game since I beat it two weeks after it came out so I don't know what they've changed other than the addition of new game plus.

>>383191152
Doubt you'd notice much of an arc at that distance, but then again the arrows seem to be travelling slower

>inJUSTice2 better than tekken 7
Fuck off.

>>383187228
Rise of the Tomb Raider is better than this shit

>>383195063
>implying it's not

Tekken 7 is the worst release to date that's nothing more than a half assed story mode and online. Many features previous in other titles were either outright removed (team battle) or downgraded (ghost mode because treasure mode and character customization) it's an exact repeat of the blunder that was SFV but it gets a special exception because it's the first time it's on PC.

>>383195063

>>383187228
>innovative things

>like?

>...Uhhh muh graphics

Every fucking time.

>>383194653
Exactly. It's not that frustration, accomplishment and fear are small things, they're exciting at best, but games are mostly worlds of subtle feeling (which doesn't apply to most work, which is about filling an inhuman gap in a machine). The way the scrolling backgrounds of platformers make us feel is pretty subtle almost entirely beyond words, and this effect is a part of every art form. Someone who loves games would emphasize this, and they wouldn't call it a "small handful of feelings". That just sounds like a small-handed person is talking.

Imagine translating music or movies into purely frustration, accomplishment and fear. A lot is missing from that. What about delight at a beautiful illusion, how promising something appears? There's actually a lot of alien feelings to be found in art if you know how to feel it in your body.

>>383193775
It is nice to look at. Players like Far Cry Primal to me. It has a lot of mechanics in the game that they never explain and have to find out by yourself. The combat is fairly simple and you do spend a decent amount of time collecting things to upgrade. The animations are pretty bad.

I bought it at release for $60, played it, beat it and then never picked it up again. If you can get it for $20, I say it's worth it

>>383187228

I still find it crazy that not only this games looks better than Zelda, but also performs better as well. I was sure it'd be filled with frame drops on PS4, because of the high quality graphics in an open world environment, but it holds up extremely well...

Meanwhile, Zelda looks like a potato at times and can't handle simple locations like the Korok Forest.

Switch should have been more powerful. PS4 is a 4 year old machine and costs less than the Switch. I won't make excuses for the newer system just because of its portability meme.

The media's gushing over horizon is one of the most pathetic things I have seen. None of them EVER says anything very positive about the actual gameplay, and they all admit that it is derivative of other open world games like Asscreed and Far Cry, while bringing nothing new to the table.
ALL of their praise is just about stupid tertiary bullshit like, "WOW the protag is a strong female warrior WITH RED HAIR" or "WOW they live in a matriarchal society, so brave, WOW". It almost feels like these journos feel OBLIGED to like Horizon, some they come up with these tiny, petty things to praise it for. Jesus Christ

>While playing games, I often experience a small handful of emotions: frustration, accomplishment, fear. While playing "Bioshock Infinite" that list expanded dramatically - outside of delighting in the graceful, smart gameplay systems that underlie the game's narrative focus, I often laughed out loud at Elizabeth's smart quips (she's the protagonist you see above). I found myself endlessly curious about the surprisingly deep lore of the game's world, its people and religions, and the main character's story arc. Perhaps most important of all, I actually cared about the main character, believed her motivations, and wanted her to succeed.

The environment interacting with itself without any player input on that scale has never been done before.

Open-world that makes you actually look at the world and not stare at a map or chase map icons

Open-world where there is seemingly no consistent formula beyond shrines and towers and the pall puzzles, yet somehow there's still way too many quests and other things to do

Being able to utilize the environment during combat and travel in ways that games simply have never done, such as using lightning storms to launch an iron arrow at an enemy just as lightning hits the arrow to attract it to the enemy, or using rain to create a faster way to shield-surf, or burning an enemy to death by lighting grass on fire and then letting the wind blow the fire to burn more grass to cause a forest fire

I know that isn't all of them, but those are some of the funnest moments I had in botw. I was genuinely surprised by it as a game, and its been years since a game has done something that generally surprised me. It used elements of sandbox games more than it did the ubisoft "open world" that HZD is ripping off of

Enemies being made out of several pieces of armor, weapons, radars, communication antennas, cargo+cargo holders, antlers, energy canisters, etc that can be interacted with and destroyed to disable abilities and attacks (destroy horns or tail to disable certain charge attacks and tail swipes, for example), shoot a shoulder-mounted gun off and use it against the enemy, use elemental damage on freeze/blaze canisters to cause a large AOE explosion. Damaging limbs will cause the machine to stagger, too, but that's in a couple different games I'm sure.
This coupled with different arrow types for elemental damage or more damage to armor, easier to detach weapons, mind control and harvester arrows to detach containers and canisters for looting makes for quite a lot of interactivity with the enemies that I haven't seen in many other games.

Pic related also has a cute animation where it picks up the box and hold it in place if you shoot the holders (yellow thing on the side of the box) without it noticing.

The graphics are all this game has going for it. The combat wasn't all that good and all I remember about the story was that humans created the machines, then the machines turned against them.

>>383197050
>It has a lot of mechanics in the game that they never explain and have to find out by yourself
>every time you acquire a new weapon it also adds a tutorial explaining how to use it
Did you really played the game?

>The combat is fairly simple
Only in the first areas, strong machines have a layered armor defense, you can't take it down just spamming one weapon

>>383201513
So its just zone-attacking? Like how you can shoot an enemy in the leg to slow them or make them fall over in Resident Evil 4? Or the VATS system in fallout? Doesn't sound that innovative to me, just sounds like expanding on something that was already there. Used in open-world games already even.

Targetting doors and cargos isn't new either, have you ever played any space sim at all? Its a standard mechanic since shit...freelancer? Descent?

>>383201661
Yeah Horizons gameplay and story aren't very good.

I can't see people fondly remembering this game in 10 years because it looked pretty.

Says the anon that played the game from youtube.

>>383202126
You call your PS4 youtube? I guess it makes sense with all the cinematic games on it.

>>383201878
You break off entire weapons. Sometimes you break of panels that open up a new weak spot. Also sometimes they can repair themselves and change their behavior if they loose a certain part.
You could compare it to fallout and RE on a surface level, but these are complicated giant robots with tons of moving parts and weak points, not humans.

ALMOST ALL of the articles and reviews really focused on the protag and "progressive story" parts
there is some talk about the gameplay but it's never a focus, but I guess it has to do with the pathetic virtue signalers who work for games sites nowadays.

There has not been discussion about HZD since like a week after its release. Just shitposting or shill floods in .webm threads.

I don't think the game is terrible but it just doesn't amount to much neither in its ambition or its execution. Happened fairly similar with Killzone games.

>>383202241

No that's true. It's probably not innovating. I haven't seen the feature where you shoot guns off the enemy's body to pick up yourself before, though, but that is basically the same as removing a Manticore's ability to spew poison after you sever the cobra head in Dragon's Dogma.
As far as innovation goes, there's not a lot. Harvesting specific enemy parts is probably the biggest thing. Shooting canisters off enemies that you can use for arrows yourself. They're the green parts on the back of pic related. If you shoot them with a normal or harvester arrow, you can pick them up. If you shoot them with fire, they explode.

HZD will be as remembered as well as The Last of Us, MAYBE. It will never have the staying power of a slugger like Zelda and I can't even think of anything innovative that it even did other than rip off MH.

underrated post, HZD is being shilled because the execs want to keep the strangled creativity and massive production budget hellscape in place, that's the ONLY reason they are calling it a huge success. They hate indie games because they have been undermining this and have gained tons of traction, and they hate breath of the wild because it doesn't abide by their false statistics of "HD graphics = main selling point"

The truth is that there's a huge scam going on in the gaming industry in which the people who produce these HD graphics are so underpaid they can barely make living expenses, but the production budget has this massive inflation for costs to produce HD graphics. So where is all the money going?

Its going straight into the pockets of the producers, and into other projects, which is how some of these producers can come up with hundreds of millions of dollars all at once across 10+ games within the same quarter, when even 1/4th of these games turns into a financial success, they can pay it all back, but even if it fails, they are still rich as fuck, and instead just to 5 games in the next quarter instead of 10

The recent success of indie games and botw undermines this system, whereas HZD reinforces this system completely, so its being shilled as a success, which is why you see all these gaming journalists saying how great it is, because who pulls the strings of gaming journalists? Its just the same corruption that's been around since forever, who cares, the only people who think this game is great are fools who will forget about it anyway because they are being incentivized to believe its wonderful

>>383203968
Arrow drop and travel time wouldn't be good in Horizon. I don't know if you've played it but you shoot much faster and more often than other games. You can fire quickly by tapping the shoot button instead of holding it down to pull the string back like many games do. Precise aiming is also difficult with a stick as is.
If they made the bow slower and more difficult, they'd need to lower machines health. Firing off the bow rapidly feels pretty nice anyways.

At least the slingshot has an arc.

1. The protagonist is female!

3. The female protagonist has red hair (gingers REPRESENT!)
4. They live in a matriarchal society (SOOO progressive!)
5. There are robot dinosaurs!
6. Amazing and progressive story!
7. It is the first major AAA F. A. G. (Feminist Action Game)
8. Uhhhhh
9. ......

>>383205412
I know you're joking but the matriarchy is heavily criticized in the game. By Aloy as well.

Name 1 (ONE) innovative thing this game did. I'll wait.

Kek, the dialogue is atrocious and awkward as fuck at all times. It's the worst writing I've seen in a AAA game in ages. It has that "person who doesn't speak english very well but was still chosen to write the entire script and the script was then edited by people who also don't speak english very well" feel like the david cage games.

Have you played it? I'm tired of the forced SJW boogieman meme on this board, this game really doesn't have any of it except you can argue that somehow a female protagonist is now SJW but that would make Tomb Raider and Metroid suddenly "progessive" as well. If anything it's anti feminist, you learn early on that the tribe you come from (a matriarchy) is so ass-backwards that the other tribes, specifically the one ruled by a King, are much better alternatives. The King does have darker skin if that really grinds your gears, some of the best characters are white me however and your "navi" like character I black but he's an asshole.

>>383190585
I had forgotten.

It's only when people make threads like these winging about >muh zelda that I am reminded it still exists and to stay away.

>>383193775
It's a good version of the same open-world formula we've seen a lot of in the last 5-8 years but looks silly when BotW has come along to show us how shitty that formula actually is. I was playing it today and even though the world technically looks way better than BotW's it left no impact on me because I never actually explored, I just followed a marker to my next objective.
