Evolution of Horizon Zero Dawn 2011-2022
-
I liked how 2011 was basically Metal Gear Solid gameplay
-
I like the Lego Thunderjaw.

A damn good 10yr later photo.

Flying mounts in the 2012 prototype O.o
ID: hsbsh7oID: hsbsne5Because they didn't want to sacrifice the visuals. It's the same topic as the Rift mechanic in Ratchet and Clank. It would work for sure on older hardware but not without sacrificing the visuals (significantly).
ID: hscs3kqThe funny thing is, this has been floating around for a long time on the internet, but someone in a different comment thread pointed out that there is no source that leads back to Guerrilla Games actually saying this. I was kind of like "nooo, surely I've read it somewhere" but I did some googling and... I can't actually find a source either.
ID: hsc0qiyHave they confirmed that Forbidden West definitely won’t have them?
ID: hsbrbtvFrom what is seen, i had a small hope that flying mounts are in this game and are kept as big suprise for games release. This hope was lost when game leeaked.. if there where flying mounts it would be all over gaming news.
ID: hsbrw0iBut this leak only contained two screenshots from the PS4 version ?
ID: hsbrngeMy hope was lost when they announced it’d also be on PS4. It was already known PS4 limited them in that regard. Going for an even bigger game would only make that even harder. And only giving a feature for PS5 users wouldn’t sit well with most.
-
Great to see. Can’t wait to play Forbidden West
-
Excellent video!
Crazy to see that even if the game evolved a lot through time, it's DNA was already there from the very beginning.

I actually prefer no flying mounts. Killed exploration and sense of large world in WoW for me.
ID: hscdl0nSame here. The sense of wonder at exporing the world was one of the main reason I loved the first game.
ID: hscj6prI think it was the opposite for me. The world in HZD was so huge I needed to use the fast travel option if I was going to get a quest or two done in the 1-2 hours I got to play everyday. So I think a flying machine would greatly help with traversing across the map without having to use fast travel. Plus I'm sure the sights would be breath taking.
ID: hsctjh3I said the exact same thing in a different thread also using WoW as an example and someone got very upset with me because WoW and HZD are very different games or whatever. High-five! 😀
I believe not having flying mounts makes for a more fun/challenging game in terms of combat and exploration because you're actually interacting with the world instead of just flying above it and just ignoring half the game.
ID: hsd1uadBut no one's forcing you to use them? The option should still be there.
ID: hsdjwznThis is an agreeable statement. Flying above the environment would mean missing out on a lot of the beauty and details that the developers build into the game.
It's a world to get lost in discovery not to fly over in haste.
-
2011 HZD basically looked like 2016 No Man's Sky...
-
It’s amazing to watch the development of a title like this. I was replying recently and kept thinking about how well polished the game was. It feels like a long established title and series even in the first game.
-
I watched this for Horizon, but now am off to play Elder Scrolls Oblivion after hearing the music used for 2012 in the video.
ID: hsbn5r7Do it, I’m playing oblivion right now on my series x with the fps boost and 4K it’s amazing. Likely gonna be playing it till horizon comes out
ID: hsbpnjhPlying Skyrim with around 450 mods on my PC and it looks like a next gen game. Considering modding the crap out of Oblivion next.
ID: hscg96bI guess you got downvoted for mentioning PC gaming, but you're completely right. Skyrim is one of the only games I'd rather play on a PC just because the quality of mods is insane. I wouldn't play it anymore if people weren't still releasing enough mods to keep it fresh.
-
It's so cool to see the evolution from prototype to finished product! Man such work behind all that
-
I’ve always had an issue with Aloy having a giant head.. it’s weird to me
Before the original release I kept thinking she had a big head from the trailers etc then when you play as her when she’s a child and she has that massive fucking todler head I lost it lol
-
I really hope we can fly in hfw
-
I prefer her old hair.
I find it hilarious when people say they think her appearance is unappealing, and then people jump straight to accusing them of sexism or attacking their character. As if people wouldn't be complaining if Link suddenly had a buzzcut.
Some people don't like some hairstyles without it being a political opinion. Wacky.
ID: hscfu4bHer old style makes her look like a late aughts scene girl. It’s goofy and I’m super glad they changed it.
ID: hsch8zjWhen I look at the old design I think "Colorful, fun, energetic, clear."
When I look at the new one I think "Realistic, washed out colors, unfocused, busy."A lot of older characters have distinct design elements based around specific shapes and colors, and rely on empty space for clarity. Most modern ones are based around realism (and mocap) which essentially kills half the tools you have as a character designer. Using Link as an example again, you can't give Link realistic proportions and have it work. I just hate that games keep going this route.
ID: hsd1cj4yeah no one complains about ugly male characters, so there's something to that.
ID: hsd226mPeople definitely complain about male characters. When FF7 Remake was first shown, people complained that Cloud looked like a heroin addict. People recently complained that Thor in GOW was fat. There are complaints of pretty much every kind you can think of.
ID: hsc0nn3They've changed her facial features to generally less appealing ones, that's the main issue people have.
-
It’s annoying that the need for a return on investment is holding the game back. If they didn’t have to develop for PS4, this game, and many others, could be so much better.
-
The only thing that didn't evole is my relationship with girls
-
God I cannot BELIEVE how fun Forbidden West looks to play.
-
What's up with the bird you could ride 1 minute in? Shame they cut that.
-
Flying>picking up sticks
-
There’s a lot I like about HZD but sometimes I find myself feeling like I’m missing something. Can someone explain what they like almost about the game so I can get an understanding of something that I may be missing? It’s possible it’s not for me but like I said, I do like it and can enjoy it but I really do feel like I’m missing something??
-
Imagine if Forbidden West and God of War were PS5 exclusives
ID: hscugjwYeah, we'd play them in 2026/2027 because they would be like a year or two into development instead of nearly done.
ID: hscxl7m2027?
Insomniac released Ratchet in 2021 and will have Spider-Man 2 in 2023 and Wolverine in 2024.
Horizon 2 started development in early 2017 after the release of zero dawn.
God of war started development after the 2018 game.
-
So you could fly until the launch...
GG, Guerilla Games.
ID: hscdylzI'm with another comment here suggesting that flying would have killed immersion. And flying while not being able to land everywhere on the map would have been more ridiculous than not being able to fly at all IMHO. Ratchet and Clank it is not.
ID: hscg0j3It wouldn't have killed it. They could have provided it as a late game mechanic which would've made post-game exploring more fun. Even flying between specific landing points would've been great. Immersion is not limited to ground exploration.
ID: hscg27sps4 limitation. And now we get a ps4 limitation on a ps5...
ID: hsctvbjWhat PS4 limitation? What is the PS4 limiting exactly?
-
Tomorrow it's my turn to post this!
ID: hscb12qFirst time I've seen it and I visit this sub multiple times a day.
-
2013 HZD looking like Elden Ring
-
elden ring looks like a Xbox one game that came out 2013 fr fr
-
After playing Demon’s Souls I know I’ll be disappointed with the graphics, but the gameplay looks absolutely good.
-
Except Elden Ring actually looks fun

Hello, good hunter. I am a Bot, here in this dream to look after you, this is a fine note:
“Hello there. Forgive me. I was just pondering about my poor fortune. I did not find my own sun, not in Anor Londo.” - Solaire of Astora
Have a good one and praise the sun [T]/
-
I feel like a crazy person because I dropped this game halfway through because I just didn't like it. I was pretty over it in terms of story and the combat was just okay for me. Maybe I should pick it up again on the PS5 and see how that goes. Or maybe I'll wait for the sequel.
-
dat inception music
-
Made me realize how much this looks like it was inspired by the comic book “Debris”.
-
kinda like when you see a 10 yr old then the same person as a 20 yr old. evolution of a person?
-
Wait what was the 2011 thing???
-
Guerilla’s prototype of Horizon. There’s a great documentary by Noclip that you can watch on YouTube about the making of Horizon and the various phases that it went through, it started out as something closer to killzone
-
Seeing those early prototypes with more physics based terrain destruction has me excited for the first Horizon game that is PS5 exclusive.
-
Holyshit what? Horizon Zero Dawn wasn’t an original game? There was another?!?
-
Super interesting!
-
you are telling me Aloy actually look good once......before her face became Nikocado
-
...Yeah, something tells me you don't talk with a lot of women, do you?
Your favorite subreddit seems to be
, and your comments section sounds like a 13 year old boy...so yeah. -
You’d think after 4 years you’ve seen all the weird shit possible on Reddit and you stumble upon a subreddit like this
-
I like how the top post is someone criticizing the users but then he got shit on for also being horny
-
Ho ho hoooo
-
She looked neat but way more anime, in a way? Like a monster hunter player character. Her current face and hair seems more realistic to me
-
Muh Vidya gEm leDay

Main character was much better in the prototype. The one we have got is hard to look at.
-
Due to lockdown she has definitely put some pounds on.
-
Fat face
-
Damn so many features were removed :/

They said the PS4 was what made them unable to do flying mounts and ironically it’s the same reason why Forbidden West won’t have them either
