We seem to be on the same page then. You just appeared to be confused as to how someone could not believe SC's visuals "blow away" Horizon's, so i thought i'd add my opinion.

And i should note, while i do think Horizon is one of the prettiest games I've ever played, I don't think its king in either art or tech. I've seen plenty of other games that achieve their own visual goals just as effectively. I just don't believe any of those games are so far ahead that they "blow away" Horizon. 

I wouldn't say confused, I'm more fixated about the technology that went into SC and what it's been able to accomplish. The fact that we have ships in a game set in outer space that can be blasted inch by inch, or being able to house multiple players in real time onboard a single ship, going from a space station to landing ona  planet, all in real time without loading screens or being attached to a seat like every other multiplayer FPS game out there, is something that blows me away quite a bit. Yet seeing some vegetation that's already decent with the likes of Crysis (to this day even) and battlefront/BF1, as well as some texture work apparently is enough to blow one away over other tech that has a bigger scope.

I know you don't think others blow away HZD, but then what does that make that game to others?,not every game is equal, just like our lives and what we do with them as not being equal down to the middle.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
