Finished ratchet and clank. So good. Last boss was tough though, on hard.

You have to admit though. The bad voice acting in that cutscene was pretty funny.

It was weird, true, but it's ridiculous how people try to use this to invalidate everything else about the game. I've seen over half a dozen very postive previews but somehow some people need to focus on this one fudgy cutscene.

Look at this thread about the Polygon preview, barely 4 comments and someone is already trying to pull the discussion towards that cutscene.

Horizon Zero Dawn hands-on : Games

He's even using the plural implying that all cutscenes are equally bad, which is just patently false.

Watched just a bit of the ps4 pro footage of Horizon and my lord the amount of foliage that was rendering in the part I watched was simply astonishing.  If this game is straight up locked 30fps most of the time I will be amazed.

Yeah I mean we have seen bits of cutscenes from trailers and most of them look pretty good.  Some things might just get passed up on accident and they didn't notice.  Now that people are talking about it you can guarantee that they will likely polish it as quickly as they can.  Game is not gold just yet(at least they haven't announced it) so they could get it done without having a patch.  Though there will likely be a day 1 patch anyway.

Just watched a bit of the "horrendous" cutscene.  It's really not "that" bad.  The only thing is just the guys voice doesn't match with in game characters actions.  Plus the guy seemed like he was shouting his lines.  Alloy seemed fine to me.

The game map in Horizon looks to be huge.

That feels small to me if each area is just a valley.

Skyrim? Red dead? GTA?

[Xevross]

Yeah the map didn't look that huge to me, which I think is probably a good thing.

dang this looks so good though, trying to not get too hyped

[kitler53]

Skyrim? Red dead? GTA?

uncharted 4? bioshock? tetris?

I think you guys are missing the scale here

Only the first part before the zoom out looks to be close to that...

Lol I finished it last night, too. The last boss was a pain in the dog even on normal. Those magnetic mines and seekers at the second and third stages of the fight pissed me off. I got to the point where I saved up ammo for my heavy hitters and unloaded on him. Half the time I died because I didn't realize how badly I had been damaged by things I didn't even know I got hit by.

Decima engine is gonna be a game changer for Sony.  I think they will likely move a lot of their studios to it minus like ND or SSM.  It's by far the most impressive engine I have seen.  Not to mention from what i'm seeing and the amount of stuff rendering in this game it is by far the best looking game.  Maybe not in terms of full on realism, but what it's doing seems like it is gonna raise the bar for games going forward.
