Not very often I make a big shout like this but Horizon is setting up to be potentially my favourite game of all time. It has everything I want in an open world action game from what I've seen to date, Dinosaurs (bloody mech-saurs!!!), Mounts, Bow and Arrow, Stealth, a lot of dense foliage and bright vibrant colours, tight mechanics, an awesome looking protagonist, deep history and a whole lot of mystery.
If the story is as good as I'm imagining in my head, it's not too bloated with un-rewarding collectibles and it has deep and interesting side quests that aren't solely fetch quests then I think it will be my favourite game (if not of all time, at least this gen - PS1 was FF7, PS2 was FF12, PS3 was Last of us and so far PS4 is Bloodborne)
That is if FFXV isn't the epic I think it will be xD
@jpeters36: At least we clarified that you don't actually know then. Kid? I'm 22, not sure when that started being classed as a kid.
If I did then at least I stand by what I originally said and your degree doesn't mean jack when you haven't used the engine you don't know how it optimises and you don't know the coding that has gone into the game so I will stick to listening to the people that actually make the game instead of blindly speculating because you've got a piece of paper but no experience with the engine used.
@jpeters36: But you don't understand it though do you? Have you worked on the engine? Have you played about with the development of the game to find out why it takes so long to load? Do you know what they would have to do or are you just saying optimise? What optimisation would be required? Or have you just read a few articles and watched a few videos and that's that? Genuine questions btw.
You can't just read a few spec sheets and start throwing out things without knowing the kinks of the engine they are working on and the limitations of the console they are using, I'm not arguing that with a little work they could do it (they clearly are with the next patch) I could be wrong which is why I have asked.
Everyone seems to think they are game developers nowadays and most don't have a clue about how it all works and put on the spot they would choke but behind a keyboard they can build the next best thing is all I was implying.
Not entirely sure what you mean by I keep making the same comment can you elaborate?
Not Kevin Hart for god sake, he's awful, unfunny and has boundaries in his comedy and gets freaked out "you can't say that" well yes you can Kevin you're a bloody comedian.
It might be my horrible sense of humour (Franky Boyle is my favourite stand up - you get a sense of what I find amusing lol) but I just can't stand him.
##@Xristophoros: Betrayed Jesus Christ are you serious? You (and a million others) need to stop acting like these studios are your close friends and family just because you've spent a few quid on their games over the years hahaha betrayed wow maybe I'm out of touch with communities but that's just stupid. Cry me a river, no wonder they got rid of Hideo if he spent that much on MGSV and that's what we got? And you're blaming just konami? Look at the state of it, its an embarrassment for an open world title, barren. repetitive down to even replaying missions to progress its a joke and apparently (I say apparently because I lasted about 30 missions and gave it up, shockingly boring game) it's missing the last chapter but yeah its all Konami, not the people that are actually making the shit games.
Most people are moaning because of what they have done to beloved franchises (left them in the dark) but have you ever for a second just thought that the artists behind your beloved games have moved on? Maybe they don't want to release another shit game under a loved brand?
Onto this MGS rip off, My personal opinion is it looks crap but all they are doing is making the most off assets that cost them an absolute fortune in the first place, that doesn't deserve mass tirades against them for god sake. People love survival, people love zombies and people love MGS - it doesn't take a wizard to work out why this game now exists.
I'm not backing any decisions made by Konami to the fullest because I don't care that much to start reading every fluff piece article spun out of a few sentences from Konami's PR but the hate? It's a joke and I bet half of you people don't even understand the half of it.
People need to get off Hideo's d*** and calm themselves down. Hate campaigns for no reason are ridiculous. I mean look at the amount of backtracking people have done now that they have seen more of Infinite Warfare. Its hilarious.
@travisr300: My eyes can at least decipher words, learn to read pal. Many many PC games are locked or WERE as I said until either modders or the community cried to get them unlocked. Pleb
