What risks is Zelda taking, for fucks sake? There's nothing is there that hasn't been done before, it only seems fresh because Zelda hasn't done it yet.

It's only new for a Zelda game, BotW is simply catching up to last gen.

You know what a huge risk would be? Making it a new IP so the game isn't judged by nostalgia tinted lens.

Has anything done the magnesis-style movement with metal and stuff besides the physics puzzles in Half-life 2? If not, then Magnesis is a nearly new mechanic since you can manipulate it all over the place with the gyro controls.

Zelda 1 was a combination of Hydlide and Adventure. Ocarina is a special one though, not only inventing the Z-targeting system but being a massive game for its time. I really can't think of a game that you can point to and say clearly inspired it, much like with Mario 64 it was a truly revolutionary game.

MGSV is basically this and look how it turned out. Sure you can mess around in the game-world but there's no real purpose. It wasn't memorable at all cause of this.

Several games have deliberate bouncing mechanics from air cushions to gravity shifting. The fire is just Zelda's way to tackle the same mechanic.

Don't kid yourself thinking this is new is any way.

Is horizon doing anything new or innovative?
>>
>>342309225
No and neither is Zelda.
>>
>>342308390
Zelda games are about the experience and world building from the series' lore.

It's not going to "change" gaming, it's just proving Nintendo can modernize a legacy franchise with cut-and-paste game structure as it's done for the past 24 years.
>>

I'm not claiming Horizon to be a risky endeavour. You guys are the ones claiming that Zelda is. I don't claim that my shit doesn't smell.

It's a new IP with a female protag. Despite how hard you want to meme, female main characters are still uncommon compared to bald middle aged space marine dudebros or RPGs that offer both choices.

Zelda is literally taking zero risk by doing yet another sequel with ideas and techniques perfected by other game companies. Not saying it wont be a quality experience, but claiming a new Zelda game "risk taking" is hilariously naive. Even FF15 is taking more risk with its boyband stars and live combat.

>Takes fire mechanics from Far Cry and improves them heavily

>large enough fires also create updrafts of heat that can be used to get to higher areas efficiently

This shit isn't in any other games. Just because an air mechanic is similar doesn't mean it's the same thing. The fire is dynamic and can even accidentally create these updrafts.

>>342309225
The premise is new and the way it's handled looks innovative (tame robosaurs, combat has RPG elements in an TPS open-world game). I didn't play Witcher so I can't confirm if the latter has been done before though.
>>
>>342309403
>ideas and techniques perfected by other game companies
Actually they aren't even close to perfect and suck ass, just like how 3D games largely sucked ass before OoT came out and showed everybody how to do it. Hopefully this is the same.

>being this specific and detailed just so you can claim "originality"

You know what else isn't in any other game? Horizon's robot dinos, Watch Doges' "hacking", GTA V's multiple protagonists, pretty much every open world game is going for some kind of gimmick to make it seem unique.

Or even shitty shovelwares like Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae? You really think anyone is going to be able to name two characters from these games two years from now?

The only other modern game that appears to have this much environmental interactivity is DivOS2.

Horizon will probably be the better game. From what I've read it has a very large open world and no level scaling. Seems like a really fun sandbox to explore.

>>342310174

FF is a mainstream franchise in the western hemisphere.

Weeb games, that stay within weeb circles, dont have its characters taken seriously in the bigger markets, especially not its fucking female characters.

So yes, Horizon is taking a risk with its ginger bitch. I wouldnt say it's a HUGE risk, but a sizeable one nevertheless.

No , but takes every part of gaming to make something special , also put some new interesting mechanics like for example the za warudo one.

I don't get why people is fucking mad when people prefer Zelda and think is just for the name , when the game is doign a lot more than Horizon.
But that doesn't mean Horizon is shit , it looks like a solid RPG. If they put generic robot enemies and other tribes then its DOA.

Well I wasn't defending Zelda, but at least it has an interesting climbing system, I haven't seen anything like that since Daggerfall, and I can only assume that it will still have dungeons with some pretty great puzzles and bosses.

Zelda is the Madden/FIFA of Nintendo IPs.

The same game over and over.

Horizon Zero Dawn has the potential to be great and do something new.

Zelda has the potential to be a great solid Zelda game which pretty much innovates here and there.

Star Fox on the Wii, and their lack of games at E3, suggests Nintendo have lost the plot.

If Nintendo were smart they would make Metroid their more adult-toned sci-fi game...but they seem content to stay in their formulaic primary colored world as much as EA and Activision love their brown and grey corridor games.

In my opinion, probably not.

Having said that, I'm still extremely excited for both. And to be honest, they're going to offer vastly different experiences from one another, which is great thing in my opinion.

I'm personally more excited for Zelda, but Horizon looks great.

There is no fucking way BotW sells less than 3 million, and 3 mil would be a best case scenario for Horizon

I'm guessing 5 million plus for Zelda and 2.5 million for Horizon.

>>342312612
lower userbase+Zelda not being that big as it used to be= lower sales. Not hard to figure out, kid

>>342301042
I don't know much about Horizon, but I'm going to wager that the game on newer hardware that isn't claiming "9 times the size of Skyrim's map" on hardware compares to other systems that struggled to run Skyrim will be doing anything too grand at the end of the day.

I would love to be excited for it, similar to how I was for Wind Waker's claims of exploration, but I also remember how hype Nintendo made people for TP, and that ended poorly. Add in the fact that the 3D Zelda games tend to have empty and uninteresting overworlds when they're going for size, and yeah, not the best history to support major claims like that.

The closest game I suppose that could really be compared to BotW in a fair sense is Xenoblades X. How did that turn out? I skipped it due to budget reasons, and no friends to play online with.
>>
>>342312209

You miss the point entirely. Sony could just make a TLOU2 if they wanted. Sure that TLOU copycat will always be judged by how similar it looks to TLOU but that's the whole point. It didn't take the easy way out.

I feel like a lot of people need to ask themselves "would I actually care about BoW if didn't have Zelda characters in it"? Because for me this is what explains e success of 80% of all Aonuma Zelda titles.

actually running a game on whats looks like to be the custom engine of another game. and call it a new IP is the easy way. same gameplay, just new models, call its "new Experience"

I grew with Nintendo and PS, and have loved them both ever since. Surethane, both have had their ups and downs, but overall, the games and experiences they've offered over the years have always been to my tastes.

I always buy a PS and a Nintendo system, and they compliment each other perfectly.
