Oxygen bar?

Aloy can swim

 

[Summer Haze]

Nice.

So good. Extremely appreciated, I wish more devs would include this many options.

 

[Primethius]

Nice.

Damn, that's so good. Probably going to disable most and leave a few on dynamic like the health bar.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Aloy can swim

Oh snap!

I thought we couldn't go underwater.

 

[bombshell]

Oxygen bar?

Those are good HUD options.

Can Aloy swim? Or she's going to space!

 

[Equanimity]

Might just be me then.

edit: those custom hud settings look damn good.

Hopefully it's better for you now.

I noticed the guy doesn't point out Aloy riding a machine like usual because she didn't go through the gate with it, points it out after the dialog tree after instead that's cool.

Yeah I noticed that last night. It's impressive.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Can Aloy swim? Or she's going to space!

lol

That would be a nice twist on expectations.

 

[Equanimity]

It likely has something to do with being around the mechanical corruption.

 

[More_Badass]

The machine sound design is really good

Climbing doesnt seem auto-run/platform. Looks like you have to press the jump button

 

[Summer Haze]

Bright yellow climbable ledges strike again lol.

 

[Equanimity]

The machine sound design is really good

I agree. It's a mixture of organic and mechanical.

 

[Yonafunu]

It's a bit jarring how the merchants don't actually interact with Aloy.

 

[Loudninja]

Hmm this scene is different?

 

[Equanimity]

There's an inventory limit and is upgradable.

Hmm this scene is different?

I have seen it before.

It's a bit jarring how the merchants don't actually interact with Aloy.

Probably changed it to save gamers time.

Edit: village merchants do.

 

[Loudninja]

I have seen it before.

I know it not new but the dialogue unless I am goign crazy was not the same, he was kneeling before too.

 

[silva1991]

I'm just waiting for dat Thunderjaw take down at low level.

 

[Equanimity]

I know it not new but the dialogue unless I am goign crazy was not the same, he was kneeling before too.

You're not going crazy

I have seen both.

I'm just waiting for dat Thunderjaw take down at low level.

Same

 

[Loudninja]

Same

Whew I am sane!

Thanks.

 

[Summer Haze]

LOL

 

[Yonafunu]

Wow, the Tallnecks clear up a lot more of the map than I was expecting.

 

[Equanimity]

Aloy just got trampled by a Tallneck.

Whew I am sane!

Thanks.

You're welcome lol

 

[silva1991]

That reload after death was fast.

 

[Domcorleone]

The higher difficulties decrease the number of supplies gained when foraging, also the enemies deliver higher damage as well. Dev hinted that other elements of the game change too but he wasn't willing to go in depth.

 

[Summer Haze]

The visuals are great here. The vegetation and ruins of the old world. Very cool.

 

[More_Badass]

The machines seem quite dangerous, and seem to make moving through the world pretty interesting. I guess that's the WRPG roots, but I like how you have to be careful about when and which machines you engage. Dont usually have to be that cautious in open world games

 

[Shredderi]

Ok that time of thing changing in photomode is some pretty fucking cool stuff.

 

[Summer Haze]

Oh wow, you can skip time during photo-mode. I foresee lots of cool time-lapse clips.

 

[Equanimity]

Best photo mode of all time?

 

[V3RT!G0]

That swimming glitch lol

 

[Yonafunu]

So it looks like the main quest marker will always stay on.

 

[X-Frame]

Is this running on base PS4 or the Pro?

Base ps4

Base PS4.

Edit: beaten

 

[Planet]

I just saw there was a glitch where Aloy tried to go into swimming motions in shallow water, looked awkward. Prepare for the hordes to exploit this into a shitstorm - GIFs incoming. Subsequently the player jumped when entering water, he noticed that, too, of course. And I bet this just went right up on top of the day one patch priority list. XD

 

[scream]

Standard PS4, they said earlier.

Edit: Well shit.

 

[Summer Haze]

Seems that way. Lame.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Does Twitch let you go back in a stream like YouTube, or am I gonna have to wait for it to finish and watch the archive?

 

[Neoleo2143]

That's why I moved from "Autoplatforming" to "magnet hands" as a more appropriate terminology. It's uncharted's climbing basically, so it's there to give some illusion of interesting traversal.

Machine design looks fantastic though (Some hitboxes look weird though). I also think people aren't giving more credit to how the environment is for these encounters. The first Thunderjaw encounter for example seems to actually feature a neat crevice around the area for the player to employ hit and run tactics. Eventually the beast will be directly on top of you and I can't help but say that's some fantastic encounter design.

 

[Yonafunu]

That's still a lot of markers on screen, that's a shame.

 

[Drackhorn]

I think I've seen enough. Bring it.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Don't they have it to always on .

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Couldn't resist a little peek but yeah I'm liking this, it has a atmosphere/style like Enslaved Oddyesy to the West, a game I love so I'm day one for this.

I can't watch all streams and all the way through like some of you guys tho, kinda ruins it imo

 

[NowhereFaded]

Can someone link the stream?

[Yautja_Warrior]

would love to see that Horizon Score higher on meta critic just to see people reaction lol

Yeah it would be pretty funny to see.

Killzone 2 has a 91 meta and it hasn't deterred people from saying GG has never made a good/great game.

*Horizon exceeds expectations with its meta*
"Meh, people are just in the honeymoon phase. They'll realize it isn't all that good afterward."

*Horizon doesn't meet expectations with its meta*
"SEE!!!"

They probably won't be quite as vocal if it does well critically but that minority will still be present for sure.

Yeah it's probably better not to listen to these people too much, as their agenda is pretty obvious.

I never did get the Killzone hate tbh. KZ 2 & 3 reviewed really well, Liberation and Mercenary were great games too, only the first game was a bit average due to the tech limits of the PS2 and even Shadow Fall was a solid game, despite the story being a little disappointing.

At least we know GG can make great games, even if a few people can't accept it.

 

[GIANKRATOS]

Nice.

Wait, oxygen bar? Mmm

They had all possible HUD elements to always off, but on seeing the options menu again it looks like there's a seperate option for quest pathfinding on/off.

 

[Domcorleone]

Those suicide explosions from the grazers looked crazy. Someone gif that please
