There is a place in the starting area with a Shell-walker and a house nearby, if you get the Shell-walker to leap at the house it can destroy it. There is also an area with Sawtooths that can destroy the village.

Perhaps you should play the game before pretending you know all about it. Is that really too much to ask?

Sure, and the PS4 runs everything at 1080p 60fps just like SONY promised.

What effects? You should know that the player is in a very uncommon place so everything is in lower LOD quality than it would be if the player was in a normal area.

It's probably because it was a new IP going up against a series with 30 years worth of goodwill, and a built in fan base that will buy anything with the title.

You get a slingshot in the game that essentially serves the function that a grenade launcher would in other games.

Is it made from the robots or is it actually just a slingshot?

seething buyers remorse for the 400+ dollars you paid to play nintenkid game, don't get me wrong, botw looks fun, but it's not worth 400 dollars to play.

>destructible environments
I fucking love the destructible environments in this game.

You fight a sawtooth in a grove of palm trees and every time you dodge his lunges he will ram into one (or more) and knock it down, and you have to jump/vault over the felled tree as it lays on the ground from then on. When a behemoth does its gravity smash attack that sends boulders flying everywhere, it can knock down a whole patch of huge pine trees all at once. Not only that but the boulder projectiles become things you can stand on or use as cover after they settle (or even while they're still slowly rolling).

I thought I would be safe from a trampler's stampede attack by standing on a big solid rock formation, but the trampler just rammed straight into it anyway and it cracked into 10-20 big pieces, like boulders, and crumbled apart as I jumped off of them.
>>
>>384417021
It's was a boring game tho. Big collect a thin stuff, the hunter grounds weren't that hard, and the enemies get repetitive. Would've like to see more interactions with towns and more enemy types. And don't make a large open world with little to do in it
>>
>>384423952
Most of the weapons themselves are basic as fuck like bows and slingshots, but the projectiles are made from scavenged advanced robot parts, which is why you get things like explosive / shock / ice arrowheads and bombs. Some weapons are made from robot tech, like the sound cannon or the heavy weapons that bandits carry like the rocket launching thing

>>384417021
It looks good, but something about it isn't grabbing me. It's kind of boring.
>>
>>384426585
It was not boring, and the enemies do not get repetitive what with all the random encounters and ways to exploit weak points. You can frequently use enemies against eachother like bombs depending on their specific types of weak points and what kinds of ammo you hit them with. Or you can override them and fight alongside them, or use corruption arrows to make them distracted and wild to take pressure off yourself. Or change their behavior by removing specific components that allow them to do specific attacks.

The machine combat was by far the best thing about the game. I beat it like a week ago on ultra hard but I keep playing it just to fight machines; you only really see the true extent of the random encounters if you don't fast travel everywhere and you actually move across the map on foot / on a mount. Literally every weapon is extremely useful depending on the situation. Mounted combat is fun too, if challenging (since you can't roll-dodge).

And it's no more of a collect-a-thon than Bloodborne is with collecting all its weapons, armors and blood gems. Except in HZD it's weapons, outfits and mods. Mad Max was a real collect-a-thon, HZD actually does it right

>>384428653
well to me the game felt derivative and extremely repetitive

>>384422675
I see this Arma screenshot posted in every single grafix thread and honestly fuck you, the game almost never looks this good, also ABSOLUTE SHIT animations
ABSOLUTE SHIT physics
ABSOLUTE SHIT sound design
ABSOLUTE SHIT framerate
ABSOLUTE SHIT vehicle controls
>>
>>384421942
Yes. The combat / exploration / storytelling are all fantastic. The best thing about HZD is the gameplay. Hunting tough machines on high difficulty is amazing.

Be warned, though, that it's about as linear as an open world RPG can get. Except for a handful of inconsequential details in some of the quests, you don't make any meaningful decisions - you just complete quests. And you don't get punished for skipping any of the side quests (other than by missing out on rewards). The only choices you get in dialog are different ways in which you can respond to something mid-conversation before the conversation continues as normal.

Zelda's got better destructible environments than any game out there, sure, but it doesn't look anywhere close to as good nor does it even manage to run as smoothly
>>
>>384433758
>nor does it even manage to run as smoothly
Of course it doesn't, BotW is too busy rendering your interactions while Horizon is static
