What exactly is mature and grown up about Horizon, lol? Oh and the games play nothing alike... You do realize that in Japan they don't view animation as childish, right? The highest grossing movie in Japan is Spirited Away, the third highest is Frozen, the fourth highest is Your name, the sixth highest is Howl's Moving Castle, the sevent highest is Princess Mononoke and the 11th highest is Ponyo. 

Everything about Horizon looks to be more mature than Zelda. Just like how NIN made that realistic looking Zelda with the spider years ago for GC or Wii, that they never followed through with. How do they not play alike? Quests and side quests (dungeons), foraging for materials (food), theres many similarities. Maybe in Japan they feel Zelda is more mature than Horizon, but worldwide I think most would see things the other way.

Art-style says nothing about how mature a game is. CoD, for example, is a game played by many kids.

COD is a horrible example btw. Its art style is not childish at all, but if COD is your example then what about GTA?  Lots of kids play that too. Should they? How young is acceptable?

Who is playing the game has nothing to do with how mature the game is. What the game is in itself, defines its maturity. I never said Zelda was only for kids, I just said it looks less mature than Horizon. Zelda is fantastic don't get me wrong. I'm just saying Horizon reminds me of a more mature version of Zelda. Not better or worse.

Who considers GTA to be a mature game? It's super childish.

Are you the one posting about it in hopes it'll happen...is it a joke or is it ACTUALLY, for sure, fore sure happening.

It's happening, Shu told me.

I heard they've added a secret ending to LoD where you fight this Brazilian half man half cat boss. The final secret boss literally stops you from finishing the game and traps the player in an infinity loop so you have to play the game forever.

And they say pc gamers are obsessed with graphics.

It could be 8k with 3TB worth of high quality textures and it would still run like shit. Not being able to use a mouse for this shooter is just the cherry on top.

Yes, it is a crime that this game, like all good console exclusive games, is confined on a single bad platform with no choice whatsoever.

Ick, no thank you.

I mean...we could just enjoy game on the platform they're made for. Seems a lot less stressful than getting pissy about it.

^
Really no point in complaining. The platform they choose is the platform they choose. cannot change that

Woah, neat. When he was changing the time of day, the direction the light was hitting the clouds actually changed... That's actually pretty impressive, not something you usually see in games. I wonder how they're rendering those clouds?

Photos and static images for this game look great. But every youtube video I see, seems like the framerate and resolution is bad. Images just don't seem crisp somehow. Hope playing live will be good on a big tv. Anyone know resolution?
