there has always been kind of fluid animation since KZ 2

ah, Killzone 2

If you told me these gifs were from a current-gen game, I would believe you

KZ 1 had some great animations too. Especially that pistol reload.

I really hope this beast still makes it into the game. Looks more intimidating than Thunderjaw.

It seems like an early version of Thunderjaw.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how spoilery is the cauldron thread? I've seen a bunch of previews.

3/10. It's only two screenshots but the first one ... OMG [SCALE]

I'd stop there though.

Its not that spoilery , Also we are really not talking about the Spoilers itself but rather the impressive draw distance of Ghost recon

This piece of concept art came out at the same time though.

So the machine in the cauldron-leak. Is it a new one? It looks kind of different, but maybe its just me

A different concept art featuring what seems to be it was shown in some videos such as "Evolution of the Machines".

Am I seeing things ? I'd say there's still hope as we haven't seen a lot of the snowy regions. That machine seems to rule over these lands.

Please spoiler talk in spoiler thread

I don't really play western RPGs (Skyrim was the last and that was back in 2015). So, Horizon is filling a void for sure. I still want to eventually play The Witcher 3 as well.

this probably will appeal more to action players than rpg. those "is this rpg" comments probably come mostly from rpg player than action player who probably just think this is awesome.

The better question would be if RPG fans are interested in this not-RPG

Spoiler

/s

Fun combat and action are huge parts of the game. Hell I'm excited for it just for the combat and exploring.

RPG stuff are just additional content to me

I love RPGs, but I'm here for the action and exploration. Everything else is secondary

You're probably fine. I'm not fond of EXP mechanics but I'm keenly interested to see how this game pans out.

I suppose it depends on what you mean by RPG and what you dislike about them (if you do).

I'm not a big fan of most big WRPGs because I'm largely combat oriented (some exceptions like Witcher that excel outside of their combat, but largely, it's not something I look forward too). In that regard, there's a few JRPGs I really enjoy primarily on the strength of their combat system.

However, Horizon seems to be putting the combat at the front, so that alone gets me excited for the playground of things it might provide.

Yup, good times



Yeah, they're doing amazing work animating the animal machines.

Thanks for all the help guys. I think I will enjoy this game. I think the gameplay looks wicked cool and original.

Good catch, I see it too. I just feel like if a machine as awesome and intimidating as that was in the game they would've shown it off by now.

Yup it looks like it. Exclusive to snow area probably.
