Times when a game got BTFO by another

>Having just completed it, we couldn’t help but think of Horizon Zero Dawn while playing Breath Of The Wild, and how simplistic it now seems compared to Zelda. You also have a bow in Breath Of The Wild, but you have to account for how arrows arc through the air, rather than it just acting like a low-tech sniper rifle.

This is Overwatch vs Battleborn all over again.

>Horizon is a simpleshit game compared to zelda cause arrows drift downward after you fire them
This is some nintendrone defense force tier babbyshit comment.

Nintendo "We make video games"

Sony "Look at how close to real life these graphics are"

Brutal.

I wish more reviews were like that.

Its calling out horizon for disguising a sniper rifle as a bow. Zelda has real bow and arrow mechanics.

Graphics>gameplay
Horizon
>Looks pretty
>Ubisoft open world
Zelda
>Looks like ass
>Has open world with more stuff
Open world is cancer either way unless it's capeshit or prototype/infamous

Bows feel good because of the arrow drop. If it acts like a gun what is the fucking point.

Gamespot said the same thing

>Graphics>gameplay

Did they say anything about the slingshot doing the same arc?

Well the bow is the main weapon in horizon they have got to make it fun to use, their is drag of course just no as severe, espcially for close range.

If graphics matter more to you than gameplay, then go watch a movies and stop shitposting on v. Games are meant to be played, not looked at

I bought Horizon, it sucks. its super generic and it looks ok but it also fucking sucks story, gameplay, and character wise.

I'm a sonybro

>looks pretty

I don't know about you but apart from the scenery and robots, the animations are horrid and the charcter models are hideous.

>>Looks pretty
>>Ubisoft open world

Horizon was always a sour prospect. The real question is Zelda vs Nier honestly, and in that regard I really think it comes down to preference, you can't go wrong on that choice from everything i've heard.

>openworld game
>die when you leave the bossfight area because they were too lazy to give it any actual AI

>sniper rifles are more fun than bow and arrows
Then just make a sniper rifle. Dont disguise it as a bow and make it the selling point of your game.

The arrow drop of bows is severely overstated in pretty much every bit of media, be it games or films.

t. archer

I wanna play the one that look actually like a fucking video game instead of that other shit that remind me of real world which suck dick. Fuck photorealism, real world suck dick.

Why don't his arrows drop?

>releasing an open world new IP a few days before an open world Zelda game gets released
You might be on to something here.

It doesn't actually work like a sniper rifle lmao, it shoots like a bow would it has drop and all that good stuff, just it's more consistent

Show me any clip of arrows going this fucking far in real life without any kind of drop.

Wait, what if Sony threw this trash out to help out Nintendo?

Really activates my almonds

You literally posted a webm of a bow acting like a rifle.

God I hate those arrow trails.

Why is it in number 1 spot on amazon?

Because Zelda sold out

It's literally the prettiest console game ever made

What is aesthetic?

So they're both going to sell well?

>Well the bow is the main weapon in horizon they have got to make it fun to use

they are catering to the lowest common denominator so yes, you're right. It's a game for the average idiot like the Ubisoft open world games its ripping off.

Not even defending Zelda here because they are completely different games. Zelda isn't like Far Cry 3 or Watch Dogs just like Horizon is nothing like MonHun or Zelda like people keep comparing it to

That's short distance relax, don't tell me you people actually think this is some sort of talking point? ahaha

Probably, yeah. They've both got a huge marketing push and it isn't like the player base that only owns a PS4 is gonna get Zelda, or vice versa.

Forest on PC

Now how about you defend this.

Not really catering, just making the bow easy to use, it's more fun that one.

Don't worry about difficulty the games got tons of it according to previews.

>hide

woooow this is nothing.

See

>reviewer calls out horizon as being simplistic since its bow is just a rifle in disguise
>no its not, look at this vid of the bow acting like a rifle
You have to be retarded.
Also
>100m+
>short distance
For a sniper rifle yeah.

>competition keeps selling out
>brag about taking top hourly sales

Hmm. Really gets the noggin joggin.

Hologram

It's the future

Fucking duh

Not exactly, Zelda sold out without even reaching number 1 once, they put out less copies, same with the wii u version.

Horizon on the other hand is selling better then the psn cards, which are always number 1, zelda never even beat the cash cards.

So the trick is to not be number 1 on the hourly updates?

The trick is to be sold out.

>100m+
Source

It's a small glitch they fixed like nearly a week ago, cactus are one of the many destructible parts of the environments.

How do you do that? By not being number 1?

i could not care less about horizon
but if they fuck up the spiderman game im shooting up sony HQ

Horizon CE is sold out

Being the #1 because all the competition is sold out is like getting a prize for being in last place

Having eye and not being a woman so I can gauge distances.

So let me get this straight. You sell out by not being number 1 hourly is that correct? So Horizon is on the track to bomb spectacularly by being number 1 hourly?

>but if they fuck up the spiderman game im shooting up sony HQ
Insomniac is on that, and I have faith in them. Say what you will about Sunset Overdrive but it had fantastic movement which is the number one thing they need to nail with a Spider Man game.

But yeah, they had better not fuck up Spider Man.

gamespot.com/articles/horizon-zero-dawn-predicted-to-sell-8-million-unit/1100-6448062/

You can't be #1 seller if you are sold out. Horizon is gonna bomb because its shit compared to its competition which is sold out. Enjoy your last place consolation prize

>predicted

i predict your mum is gonna suck 8 million dicks but we all know she has 3 million in her at best

Okay

Them's good numbers.

Zelda will probably surpass them in its lifetime sales though.

Shadow of the Colossus didn't have the arrows arc.

This is not a gripe. This is straight up trying to invent a reason to think Zelda is better than another game that also happens to have a bow and is being released in the same week. It's absolutely fucking trivial and make's the defense of Zelda seem terrible.

Those analysts should be fired.

Seriously, this week will be one heck of a shitflinging festival.
I wonder how well sony pays their online shills. Seriously, it's something I'd like to know.
Even with little overlap in playerbase (thematically shifted and different platforms), you can be a nut and a half that it'll be horrible.

>he thinks having the gameplay mechanic complexity of something from 20 years ago is a good thing
My fucking sides. Even OoT had arrows fall off. Low tech shit design.

...

Horizon was practically unheard of before February.

>Forest on Switch
>Fully interactive
>Forest on PS4
>No interaction what so ever

Yep. Sounds about right.

How about you defend this.

But this tho

not a single western knew at E3 that your companion horses and dogs could perma die.

Goodluck selling your garbage chinaman game.

I'm very pessimistic about Zelda, but do you not understand the concept of an example?

I really like the way the water looks in this game.

I want that chest

...

>Look mom I can cherrypick from games!

okay.

insert bloodborne_ai.webm

muh polygons

>even OoT ha arrows fall
Except for the fact that it didn't you fucking retard. Arrows flew straight. All arrows fly straight for over 50 meters given an actual archer and an actual bow. the amount of arc in breath of the wild is actually cartoonishly excessive or implies Link's bow is made of garbage or his arms made of noodles.

The sling isnt even effected by the players motion. How bad can the design of this game be.

>tons of dirt kick up
>cactus is still there

Pretending to be retarded?

it look me a bit to realize this wasn't skyward sword

what a shit art direction

At least it doesn't look like polygonal hot garbage.

Why does it seem like there are always a thousand icons on screen at once? Seems like it would get distracting.

Nice try Olara.

Please delete your post for me.

Just watch, the gfx will get dg'd to shit upon release.

MGSV has bullet drop and amazing mechanics

that didnt save it from being a disappointment, though. just saying, theres more to a game than combat mechanics.

>Except for the fact that it didn't you fucking retard
Sonyggers have to lie now to try and argue. God you faggots are retarded.

the absolutely #1 crock of bullshit about HZD and the PS4P is that its being touted as "4k graphics"
but in reality its using checkerboarding and interpolating pixels

so instead of calculating 3840x2160p like people believe it is, its just rendering 1920x1080p and interpolating it to 2160im except not even 2160i because that implies half the fidelity, checkboarding is 1/4 of the fidelity

>horses and dogs could perma die
What?
First, horses aren't unique entities. Just get a new one.
Second, horse meat taste great!

MGSV's combat and stealth was the best in the series.
The problem was story and a map with a whole lotta nothing.

>B-BUT NINTENDO
Fucking embarrassing.

Zelda looks fucking terrible anyway, I would rather buy a Collector's Edition of HZD to use it as a paperweight than ever waste my money on a fucking Switch

Nobody wants your shit nintendrones, Nintendo is almost as disconnected with reality as Konami

t. idort

If your game is about bow and arrow combat you need to have bow and arrow physics.

No game does

>dont care about horizon

>just waiting for persona 5 and nier while playing nioh

am I the only one who doesnt care about horizon?

how about you compare it to the AI of other zelda games you fucking retard.

I swear to got you nintendrones are /so/ retarded that you immediately think any criticism is from a competitor and you have to turn it into consolewar faggotry.

The AI in BotW is shit by ZELDA standards, nigger

It is very pretty. It's also likely to be a very good and very fun game.

Zelda just appears to be a great game that is going to be amazingly fun. It's artstyle covers some of its graphical weaknesses and that's fine. Stylized graphics have their place just as hyper realistic ones do.

they fucking die

If you go into mounted combat against a Hinox, it will throw bombs at you. The bombs will knock down a tree. It will pick up the tree, swing it into you and knock you off your horse. Then it will PICK UP YOUR HORSE AND THROW IT AT YOU

>This is a 2 years old PC game
