Yeah I'm pretty sure it's ingame, this is another photo in which the title says "ingame" where they were talking about how the world is reflected in real time on her eyes and I'm pretty sure it's the forest in the early part of the game.

Ah, yes. I've seen that shot. Yeah, her are eyes are some of the most impressive things I've seen on a character. And, as you can see, Horizon looks so good at times, people can't believe it's really in-game.

Another thing that amazed me was I was climbing to the top of a mountain, pretty high up and I'm looking for a scene to take a screenshot and boom, all the way in the back, I notice something moving. Lol it was a tallneck, just going on it's usual path. I was so surprised because I was so far away from that part yet it could be seen perfectly. What an amazing game.

A game that came out almost 2 years ago, with a map that absolutely dwarfs that of HZD, is absolutely a better game graphically.  

Not to mention it's true native 4K resolution.  

Artistically, I actually prefer Horizon; but technically, it doesn't hold a candle to The Witcher 3.  

Enjoy these screen shots and have a nice evening, 

I think I'm going to go play some HZD while I wait for Nier to finish downloading.

Eh, none of those shots top what I've seen from Horizon (1080p nor 4K), and this shot:

Looks very much like one of the pre-downgrade Witcher III captures.

Edit: Yup, that screen is one of the original Witcher III screens from 2013 (along with this one):

The final game does not look like that.

Have a great night!

lol the irony. you say the screenshots I posted aren't real gameplay yet every screenshot you posted are bullshots from the devs.

And finally, as a Game Designer, I understand exactly how video games work. I await those Witcher III screens... ;p

Real quick, before I go.  Maybe you could shed some light on a couple of the games you've helped develop?  

I would love to try some out and support your creations.

It's been a pleasure talking to you as well!  Your screenshots are from photomode but I will agree that HZD looks exactly as the gif in your signature does!  Enjoy the game!!!

I think those shots actually back up CGIs argument. There are obviously things a PC can brute force its way to being better (such as image quality and texture filtering), but those shots look overall inferior to what I've seen in Horizon. The foliage in particularly looks much worse. The only one of those screen i'd say looks better is the last one, but that's pre-downgrade.

Comparing Horizon and TW3 isn't 100% fair, as you mention TW3 has a much larger world (and in general more content), and also release 2 years later, but graphically it looks like a step down to me. Not a huge one, but a step down nonetheless. And yes, i also have a PC that can max it at 4k. At 30 - 60fps anyway

By the way, if you want some directly-from-gameplay screenshots, i'd be happy to provide some in a few hours. They look pretty much identical to the ones in photo-mode, but perhaps having the HUD there will reassure you?

Start here

Truly fascinating!  In all seriousness, keep up the great work!  I'll keep an eye out for your name in the credits of the next big AAA blockbuster!  Have a great night!!!



And thus the screenshot wars continue .

I dunno, Witcher 3 still looks pretty for what it is.



Then there's KCD:

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.

Oh right, and I think God of War is going to be the next game with crazy graphics. God of War III had the most underrated visuals last gen. I still think it looks better than the Last of Us. It was crazy what they did with that game.
