They are actually planning a trilogy:
- Horizon: Zero Copyright
- Horizon: Forbidden East
- Horizon: Call of the Lawyer
Hey now, this will be a very unique game. Did Horizon: Zero Dawn have horribly grindy MMO game mechanics and monetization so far up your ass you could taste it? This is Tencent after all. Checkmate, haters.
~/s for the blindingly stupid.~
While I love the sentiment, it might be a matter of both unfortunately. But, we have NCSoft at the helm instead of TenCent.
I remember Immortals: Fenyx Rising looking like a shameless, soulless ripoff of Breath of the Wild. Turned out to be an amazingly fun game that didn’t take itself as seriously as Zelda but had a tremendously satisfying gameplay loop and some really solid humor.
This isn’t that though. This is gonna be some creatively bankrupt trash.
I think Fenyx Rising was actually a better game than BOTW. The combat system was more entertaining, the skills you got enabled more interesting platforming, and it actually had a plot/story l.
I think it was a legitimately more fun game, and quite a bit more approachable. The production wasn’t quite as polished, but pound for pound I think I had a better time with it.
Did they really need to copy the font? There are small things they could have done to make this not so blatant.
Some of those robots look sick, but I’ll be damned if they don’t look like a Horizon fanfic.
This looks about as creatively bankrupt as Palworld, but at least Ark But With Pokemon took two games that I don’t like and mashed up my favorite parts of both. I already like Horizon and Monster Hunter, so Horizon But With Monster Hunter has nothing to offer me
No, they’re angry that this game, although it is in the same genre, got no originality or creativity from it’s makers. It’s an almost exact copy.
i mean if it weren’t an mmo i’d at least check it out from the libary
competition is good, this game might push some new mechanics that work well with this kind of world/story and Sony will have to catch up, thus making the franchise better.
This game will come up with about as many new mechanics as Palworld did
you think that’s a counterexample but it’s not.
What new game mechanics did Palworld introduce? Everything is kitbashed from Ark and Pokemon.
Not that I hold anything against it, it’s more fun than either Ark or Pokemon, but I don’t pretend that it’s anything new
