Which will sell more?
>>
I needed the file name to tell me what the other one was, so...
>>
>>344413930
Honestly? Probably Zelda. The other one seems to be trying for the typical AAA stuff. It'll be farcry assassin's creed type of open world, also it's a new IP and might try too many things halfassed and feel frantic.
But they really don't seem to be related in anyway. I don't quite understand the comparison as they only have "open world" in common. Someone will very likely say horizon looks better as that's the type of game they like more. They really shouldn't be compared, you might as well make a metroid vs skyrim next.

Zelda undoubtedbly will be better.
That being said, Zelda will also sell better.

Why? Never underestimate Nintendo fans, Zelda autists, and girl """gamers""".

Will Horizon be good? Definitely! Insomniac is a wonderful developer. But they cannot match Nintendo quality. they simply don't make great games for the sake of it. they make good games for easy profit.

Horizon will look better. Zelda will play better. Zelda will have better mechanics and aesthetics, Horizon will most likely have a better story.

Zelda will have a few mistakes dealing with the open world, such as there not being QUITE enough stuff in the overworld but will ultimately be the better game due to its mechanics and open-ended design. There will still be a fuckton of things to do in the overworld but there's gonna be a fair amount of travelling.

Horizon will also be good but won't sell as much and will have less to do. Unless Horizon has a beast-taming and riding mechanic I haven't seen, I don't think it'll be as fun. I want to ride those robot apatosauruses.
>>
The Legend of Zelda will do better, simply because of brand recognition and the fact that it's been too long since there's been a new console Zelda.

I don't like both games but the tops going to sell the most.

Sorry bud. Zelda -- and Nintendo -- are not AAA. not at all. their budget for Zelda is, like, $10m max.

Then stick to Nintendo games. They're all silent and make grunts and you have to press A to proceed through dialogues instead of listening.

For both questions?

Quite few action adventure games sell more than Zelda.
>>
They both look like boring open world games but I get the impression that Zelda will at least have some focus through dungeons and the like, so I'd say it'll be better.

Which sells more depends on if you're looking at first week vs lifetime and how well the NX does really. I'm sure if you compared first week Wii U sales, even for a zelda game, they'd probably fall short of Horizon just due to the lower install base. Lifetime though I'd wager Zelda wins out easily since I can't imagine Horizon will sell at all after the first few weeks while Zelda will be a mainstay seller for years to come on the NX.

Gee, I wonder. If Horizon came with a free pornstar of your choice and shot Money out of the console when you play it, Zelda would still sell more because of nostalgiacancer and hipster retards trying to fit in.

Nothing against Zelda, but this is Nintendo's 1st try on the "open 3d world" thing that other companies have done again and again, i doubt they will get it right with their first one, maybe the next if it's similar.

As someone who owns both consoles, i'm generally more excited about Zelda.


The presentations i've been shown of Horizon doesn't really excite me because the protaganist just has to comment on everything (I am assuming this is just for the sake of it being a presentation and doesn't actually happen in the game) and the game itself doesn't seem to be doing anything that every other open world AAA game hasn't done already, it's good looking and has robot dinosaurs so i guess there's that, maybe it'll be a pleasant surprise

it's not shitpostaing,it is the truth. prove me wrong. Zelda is not AAA.

>>344417989
the budget determines what kind of game it is. i believe over $10m is AAA, anything below that is 2A, anything below $5m iirc is A, and anything below $3m is indieshit.

the number of As does not determine quality of the game by any means. nor does it determine how fun it is. Zelda will be a shitload of fun and Horizon doubly so.

Nintendo doesn't do AAA. That's been well documented and they even said the magic number for Zelda was 2 million.
>>
>>344418803
It's getting there.

Horizon is a new IP and exclusive, and it's also not pandering to all the modern AAA checkboxes by not being a military game or having a male lead. The game has a chance of doing very well once they decide to show more of it and it comes out and actually reviews well. Guerrilla's track record isn't the best.

Zelda is part of a 30 year old franchise, got full focus at E3, got immense social media buzz, the mechanics are playing well with longtime fans, will be on two consoles at least, and on one as a release title on a device with very high chance of having Mobile Gaming capabilities.

Zelda will sell a lot of copies.

People are starved for decent new IPs

Wouldn't it be more effective to "hunt" the robots with a giant magnet than a compound bow?

I put "hunt" in quotes because it seems more like youre just running around killing shit. It would be cool if you could run the robots with dogs like you do deer in real life. Or if you could call in robots like turkeys. Or set decoys to lure in robots out like you do ducks. Then again, I'm sure that the devs and the people this game is supposed to appeal to have never hunted a day in their life.

its already been confirmed that Horizon will feature a story related to "Women being just as strong (if not stronger) than men". So I assume it will get 9.5 from Polygon and tumblr will cream itself over its progressive storytelling.

Are you aware that Ubisoft boasts putting rough 1,000 people on some of their titles? Are you aware that none of Nintendo's teams have a head count that hit half of that? That alone drastically inflates their budgets and that before getting into licenses, marketing, and voice acting.

Nothing Nintendo has comes close to being AAA.

Who knows, although I am looking forward to Horizon but I reckon Zelda could be better.
Both are new or trying new things so it is still up in the air especially since Zelda is hit and miss.
I have faith in Horizon though.

>Which will sell more?

The WiiU has some insane sales percentages. Mario Kart 8 sold 7.5 million which makes it currently the best selling exclusive of all three home consoles.

Everyone and their mother knows BotW will blow Horizon out of the water in sales. There's a less certainty but still a high chance it will be better so take solace in that.

>What Ubisoft does doesn't dictate what AAA is.
Yes it does because nothing Ubisoft does is unique to them. All the big publishers follow roughly the same strategy and that is what has helped define what AAA is. Nintendo and Zelda don't meet any of those benchmarks.

Making a game whose main mechanic isn't killing things.

Not defending Nintendo just curious. Is this something that happens when you put a marker on the map and they're calling that an objective, or are they actually doing Quest Markers as well? Like >>344420661, said I don't see much of a problem with markers as long as it isn't in the overworld, although this is strange for a Zelda game.

You don't actually know what you're talking about though.

Budgets of about $100,000,000 and needing around two million sales to break even are both completely normal in what is considered AAA priduction.

Whether you consider Nintendo's endeavors worthy of the description or not is irrelevant to whether Breath of the Wild is a AAA production.

It absolutely is.
>>
>>344420841
I haven't played it so I'm not positive, but listening to a podcast of someone who did they said something like "When I started the demo, there was a marker on the map that lead to a shrine, and when you went there it showed you how activating the shrine would unlock more of the map. Like ass creed."

Could have been just for the demo, since all the quests were disabled.

I don't even know /v/ definition of weeb anymore but I don't understand how one game can be weeaboo thrash while certain Nintendo games and souls games are somehow western games super cool not weeaboo at all yet Japanese as they come.
>>
>>344413930
BotW. It'll be the highest selling Zelda game yet.
>>
>>344421092
But the unlock is in terms of abilities and gear, which help you get past obstacles

Not ducking invisible walls

Zelda will sell better
No idea which will be better, horizon is at least something interesting
>>
>>344421103
But that's not what the game is?

horizon will be better than the typical playstation game but i don't think it will be better than the new zelda

Zelda will sell more, because PS4 exclusives sell like shit.

Maybe, like how they only showed the plateau because they didn't want you to see anything else. It's just weird to see it in LoZ. I just hope they don't do another annoying ass companion like Fi.

>>344421103
I really fucking hate mass effect, running around baking bread and everything is all kawaii uguuu and upskirt panty shots everywhere
>>
>>344420365
Not him but literally anything that isn't a copy paste of ideas like both of these games seem to be. Yandere Sim by an actual decent team for example would be an interesting and risky game. Or the bartending waifu shit, but with budget. Fuck anon, just look at some indie games and put a bigger team and budget and you have it. Open world with robo dinosaurs is not risky or imaginative. Not saying the games will be shit because of that, but they are clearly checking a list of current trends.

I'm actually pretty sure they said if you just ran off and did your own thing after a while the voice from the intro came on and was like "Hey, go to the marker!"

Nah, as far as I can tell from the gameplay stream, the tower merely shows more or the location on the map. I'm not sure if this is how fog of war works, but I doubt it.

The shrines give you new abilities and gear that you can use to access new areas, like the glider. You are not locked from visiting a location even if it is not shown on the map.

Horizon looks like Far Cry Primal but with robot dinos. Also, the plot involves the creatures becoming corrupted by something, how original

Maybe during 7th gen when companies were happen to get a million or two in sales but not now. Modern Warfare 2 had a budget of $250 million and that was back in 09. Destiny was estimated to be about double of that.
>>
>>344420661
I hate them. It's a way to streamline games. You don't think about what you do. You follow a line and that's it. Some games let you remove them, but they are already designed with the makers in mind.

They are one of the worst things that AAA shit tends to have.

Thank fucking christ. After Fi, I would be amazed if they did the companion thing again.

>>344421681
I mean he has a point though. Calling someone a weaboo used to mean they were overly obsessed with Japanese culture and had multiple body pillows, figures, and wall scrolls. Now, for the most part, it's just a blanket term for anyone who remotely likes anything japanese. At least that's what I've been seeing across multiple boards.

They'll both be bad but Zelda will sell more because nintendo fanbabies are like dogs that nintendo beats with a stick, calls worthless, shoves garbage down their throats, leaves them in chains and blindfolds for months in their cage, and doesn't feed them a week at a time, but somehow in some way remain fiercely loyal, probably because they have a fetish for being mistreated.

Meanwhile Sony tries to do well even if they mess up a lot but they won't win because they don't have that masochist fetishist fanbase that nintendo does. The worst part is the nintendo fanbabies don't even fully realize they're being wronged. They are so ignorant. Remember the age old phrase:

It's OK when Nintendo does it.

people who buy ps4 are tech whores who simply want whatever is the newest $600 toy

All AAA games. If you look at any of the top budgets games you can find, Nintendo never appears.

Cinematic movie thrash.
>>
>>344424647
according to studies, the largest group is 25-30 are the group that buys and plays the most video games.
nintendo targets all ages but people still think they only target kids because pokemon (a game not even owned by nintendo) is the only game nintendo makes.
Children are rarely on this site.
I understand you;re trying to say children, but that's irrelevant, no one owns a wiiu, it sold very poorly. and kids don't like nintendo games. They enjoy uncharted and call of duty.

But AAA doesn't mean top budget as such.

And even if it did, Breath of the Wild certainly is top budget compared to over 95% of games being made nowadays.

>>344413930
Zelda will be better. The only threads you even see of Horizon are asking "which will be better lol"

Zelda is exciting people, and it looks a lot better as a game. Horizon has better graphics, but Zelda has a better everything else. After watching the Zelda gameplay and gaming back to watch Horizon again Horizon's gameplay looks so boring and dull. The trees and the mountains and the foliage are all just set pieces to hide pop in for your cinematic experience where you press a button and your character performs complex moves for you.

It's funny because I was initially worried before E3 that Zelda would be this same kind of boring generic trash, but Zelda is gong back to its roots and adding so much incentive for constant exploration and the world in general looks like so much more fun to explore. The verticality and variety look unmatched.
>>
>>344425182
Movie shit. Pressing A and reading dialogues while the character grunts and moving their lips is pure gameplay.
>>
>>344423204
I don't even own a Nintendo console and I think Zelda won it for Nintendo.
>>
>>344419861
Actually I was watching an interview with one of the devs and they said the team were reluctant to work on Horizon but grew to enjoy working on it so at least it's a partial labor of love.

They wanted to continue making Killzone games according to the dev and that that was next after Horizon.
