Is it just me or did Zelda rip off Horizon?
I don't know, but that's the stupidest screenshot I've ever seen.

Why, because there's a bow?
Nintendo develops games in a large metal box isolated from the world.
>>341364016
It's you. This is Skyrim inspired Zelda. Nintendo said as much when they announced it.
>fighting large monsters on foot was invented by Horizon
Jesus fucking christ OP how underage can you be?

>>341365416
>>341364016

At some point you stop pretending and show how stupid you actually are.

It's literally exactly the same game. Nintendo literally stole the source code and changed the name of it (name is clearly ripped off too: "Horizon" ---> "Wild"). I'm seriously suspicious that they may have actually kidnapped some of the Horizon devs and are forcing them to remake their game elements for Nintendo right now. If you pay really close attention to the videos you can tell.

Not OP, but I do sort of agree if there's any game to compare this to, it's horizon.
Seeing that mounted combat against the guardian looked very similar to what we saw in the horizon tech demo where she takes down that robot while slinging explosive arrows at it on the robo ram.
I don't think they straight up copied it sony, but they are pretty similar

FRESH OFF THE BOAT KID?

There are some similarities, but it's to be expected, especially since Zelda did some of this stuff first anyways. And other things are just stuff we tend to find in 3rd-person AAA games now (Horizon in parricular is an amalgamation of various AAA elements really). The differences will come down to the details. Most of the things people are actually excited about for Zelda aren't mundane things like "survival elements" but rather things like the unique environment/item interactions that are possible.

Just like dolphins and fish have streamlined shapes that allows them to move fast in water two unrelated developers working on open wold enviroments can converge in similar gameplay mechanics.
If the game comes out after X game has achieved success shamelessly copying every gameplay mechanic and setting then yes, it's a rip off
>>341365416
>Because every games were inspired by Zelda, right?

Zelda rip off Witcher 3, Skyrim and MGS V
Its funny how Zelda used to be the game that set and define trend in video games, now they are just ripping off popular games
>>341369932
yeah It isn't a ripoff. And It's less gameplay mechanics and more athmosphere if you ask me.
I'm not saying this because I'm a mad sonygger looking to take potshots at nintendo. (I don't have a PS4, and likely never will and am hyped as fuck for this new Zelda) I just couldn't stop thinking of Horizon when I saw Link running around the Plateau in a post apocalyptic and wild environment.
>>341370428
This. Nintendo is not relevant anymore.
>>341370192
I'm not sure what you're trying to say but actually Zelda is one of the most influential game series of all time. And in fact they invented the "open world" genre back before open world meant GTA & Elder Scrolls. That doesn't mean current Zelda games aren't influenced at all by other games though.
>>341370428
>>341370659
None of those games would have existed at all without OoT. Nintendo does it better anyway
>>341370850
Get off Nintendo's cock
>>341368014
>mounted combat with explosive arrows
Zelda did this in Twilight Princess a decade ago. It had mounted combat/archery in Ocarina of Time two decades ago.
What is with all the posts today going
>the new Zelda is open world, so it copied [open world game]
?
Isn't Zelda pretty much the original open world game, starting back in 1986?
>>341373368
Granted.
Zelda predates pretty much every series that people have been saying it copied for being "open world".
I wonder if MUDs would count, predating Ultima.
