I’m stoked for this. The world still holds up beautifully, but the people are hard to play with. When it rains everyone looks plastic and the cutscenes look like robots. To add to what you were saying, HZD may not have needed a remaster, but it deserves one.
I don't care what anyone says we needed this. I hope they rework the weapons to make them more like Forbidden West with the upgrades, weapons techniques, cool names, legendaries, etc.
They won't. This is this game, not that game. :) Focus on the Fire Arrows, Stormslinger, Forgefire, Icerail weapons, the ones the sequel lacks (and the Fire Arrows was gelded in the sequel).
Love to see the shared Horizon love! So excited to experience Meridian, the Sun Ring, and Frozen Wilds in modern graphics. Thank goodness we don't have long to wait!
I like how quiet and measured and down-to-earth your voice sounds. Very pleasant to listen to. Much nicer experience than those trying to be a really big presence all the time.
Great video! They need to start a Horizon Anonymous because I am 1000% addicted to everything Horizon. I've literally watched hours upon hours of lore, and this entire story is incredible.
I'm into it. I got a PS5, so my intro was Forbidden West. I didn't get to play Zero Dawn for very long before it was removed from the library. The cut scenes were jumpy at times though on PS5. I'm getting this. 100 per cent.
Its a total understatement to try and relate how hyped i am for this game! I still can't believe i let this sit on my shelf for 5yrs during the ps4 era, smh🤦♂️.....but im sooooooo hyped for this!
Yes! We need this remaster. Best game ever. I think they were able to create the remaster with minimal effort because they were able to use so much from Forbidden West.
I absolutely agree about the facial expressions in the first one, the NPCs seemed too robotic, just today I was about to replay ZD before starting FW but as soon as I saw the trailer of the remastered of ZD I told myself to wait directly for the release of the remastered to play it again and then start FW
It only dawned on me now that obviously they could not record Lance Reddicks scenes again... I wonder if they used someone else as a body/face model to maybe give some of his scenes a bit more dynamic, and just left his audio unchanged...
I think at best they would have left his audio unchanged, it was already top tier so I don't think it could have been improved much further. They would have probably used another mo-cap actor, but this is par for the course in video game dev. It's still a bit rare where voice actors also do their own mo-cap for their character.
Already played zero dawn twice, but hearing that they've redone the facial animations and even rerecorded stuff.. yeah I'm definitely getting this. Though I agree that there are older games that needed a remaster more then this though.
There are some very excellent games that need a remaster, but Guerrilla and Nixxes chose to do this. Ultimately it was their time, money and IP and hopefully they make it back. Other studios may decide to follow suite if they feel it may be worth it. I am happy about this though!
Was this needed? No not at all am I gonna buy it? Hell yeah it's Horizon 😅. I can't wait to see Talanah she's my favourite (alongside Seyka but she's not in the first game 😅). It looks absolutely gorgeous Aloy's new model looks great I actually think it looks better than FW's Aloy model can't wait I was gonna replay Horizon soon so this is dropping at a convenient time lol
I loved zero dawn but trying to go back to it after HFW is difficult lol so I’m so glad they’re doing this, they redid voice work, mocap etc, so it looks like the cutscenes will also be on par with FW because I found them quite clunky in the original, I’m so getting this lol
Will it have gyro aim is all I need to know. Just started ZD again after finishing FW but had to out it down as I became too accustomed to gyro aim. 🙏🙏🙏
wtf are they really making a remastered ......AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH God i hope they add a stash to the first Horizon Zero dawn i would never stop playing it....btw the reason they picked that date may be the fact that they have been working on this game for a while now and have not told anyone .....all i want is a stash to never have to ever destroy stuff to loot stuff and I am sold on this game I love Horizon zero dawn
I actually loved the flashbacks of rost in H.F.W i really liked him as a character and its just sad that he wasnt in that game (more stuff like flash backs would have been fun w info about more before Eloy became who she became or something like that) Anyhow i hope to see alot of improvments i heared about(if its true or not i dont know,but shieldwing or similar is supposed to be in the remasterd version??)
Having a shieldwing in ZD would disrupt the narrative. The story says Aloy gets her shieldwing from a dropped combatant after the embassy at Barren Light. They won't randomly add it in the remaster no matter how handy it is. Same reason they won't add a sunwing/waterwing.
Not a deal breaker for me. My PSN, EA, Epic accounts are already connected. I see it may be important for some though especially in countries where you can't access it.
It's unlikely to happen but I hope we get the Shield Wing as gliding around the world is so much fun and such a time saver in Forbidden West. I know, storywise it wouldn't make any sense but I'd be willing put that aside just to make the world more fun to explore.
It would be fun but I don't think it will happen. Hopefully movement and traversal will feel better though. I will definitely miss the shieldwing and our birdy.
About the release date. It's Nixxen, not Guerrilla, and it's not Nixxen, it's Sony. They do this cursed scheduling. :/ Anyways, they are probably okay with it.
I did rant about it before I found out it was only $10. And it's a remaster, not a full game, so it's not as big a deal as I made it out to be. Still, I'm personally upset that I'll have to choose between DAV and Horizon to play in November. :D
@@melaplays Oh, well, an idea: buy this game then wait for a $10 discount on the other. The total cost will be the same, and you'll get a more stable, mult-patched version of DAV 😏
exactly the same game with changed id so PS5 says it's a PS5 game an little AI up scaling the differences are so small you literally need a stop frame and a magnifying glass to see them exactly like Forbidden West plus PS5 version will Never have something the PS4 one has just a little thing but a Basic Feature for anything gaming Save Game Backups
@@LyuboA I'm not sure what you're seeing. 10 hours of re-recorded mocap and voice acting will make a huge difference and the superficial differences are notable in the trailer already. Also you can back up your saves with a PS5 so I'm not sure what you're referring to here. In any case don't get this remaster if you don't think it's worth it.
"I would have played Horizon Zero Dawn, if only the game looked a bit nicer..." said no gamer ever. Guerilla should pay a good writer for some quality content instead.
Your Excitement is contagious. I'm definitely looking forward to this. Take my $10
I playec first Horizon on PS4 like 3 years after it came out, and it was the first time that could not wait to get home to play!
I’m stoked for this. The world still holds up beautifully, but the people are hard to play with. When it rains everyone looks plastic and the cutscenes look like robots.
To add to what you were saying, HZD may not have needed a remaster, but it deserves one.
"HZD may not have needed a remaster, but it deserves one." Well said!
I don't care what anyone says we needed this. I hope they rework the weapons to make them more like Forbidden West with the upgrades, weapons techniques, cool names, legendaries, etc.
Then it would be a different game and thus remake and not a remaster.
They won't. This is this game, not that game. :) Focus on the Fire Arrows, Stormslinger, Forgefire, Icerail weapons, the ones the sequel lacks (and the Fire Arrows was gelded in the sequel).
thats never gonna happen
@@NameUserOftrue. Remaster meaning is just minor upgrades from the original game.
Nah I personally like the first game better
Love to see the shared Horizon love! So excited to experience Meridian, the Sun Ring, and Frozen Wilds in modern graphics. Thank goodness we don't have long to wait!
I feel the same!
It’s my favorite game ever as well ❤ I’m just enjoying the early Christmas 🎄
I like how quiet and measured and down-to-earth your voice sounds. Very pleasant to listen to. Much nicer experience than those trying to be a really big presence all the time.
Thank you :)
This is a Dream come true. ❤❤ Thank you SONY!!!!
the fact we get to upgrade for only £10 is also such a steel
Great video! They need to start a Horizon Anonymous because I am 1000% addicted to everything Horizon. I've literally watched hours upon hours of lore, and this entire story is incredible.
It's one of the best stories in gaming, in my opinion!
Can't wait to Replay this again - this time better than ever!
I agree. The mocap, proper dialogue acting is reason enough for me to want an upgrade. Im definitely buying the 10 dollar upgrade
Favorite game ever? You got my sub 40 sec into this video 😁👍
Meridian looks amazing

i own it on steam i only have to pay 10 happy

Love Horizon Zero Dawn (have it on both PS4 and PC) - not bothered by this. This isn't ps3 to ps4 upgrade just a medium graphics setting to ultra.
I never played this when I had a ps4, and now I’m on pc so really looking forward to playing this then forbidden west after ✌️
I have 1007 hours in the first game and I also platinum on ultra hard. I will definetly buy this version the cd version , the cover is very beautiful.

I placed this on the backburner for a while, but this announcement definitely revived it! Looks amazing 👍
Agreed! It will be a great time to replay it!
@@melaplays Most definitely, and in the blink of an eye it is here already, sort of like Christmas came early.🥳 Be well.
@@ryanstephens4977Christmas came early especially if you’re looking forward to the Horizon Lego Adventures.
@@GamingPoetsSociety One might not be able to handle all that awesomeness man, that sounds more like a trap 😂
I can’t wait for this
Wish they could bring some of the H:FW fight mechanic into the remaster

@@melaplays as a horizon fan I'm happy too, but I understand the frustration from those wanting a Bloodborne or an Infamous remake
Can't wait to return to its world and see it on Forbidden West level! 😊
am very pleased to see it released for playstation and pc. I expected to wait.
I was pleasantly surprised to see it available for PC too and that it was coming out so soon. I may be playing DA first though.

Awesome!
Do you know if you can carry over your saves to the Remaster If you have the PS4 version?
Check the blog link in my description, but I imagine yes it will carry over your saves. Not sure yet though.
Yes you can.
You can.

I tried replaying HZD on PC after HFW and it was too much of a downgrade. This is awesome!
@@airforcex9412 For its time, it was alright. The story and the world building carried the game, certainly.
If u own it! You can it the upgrades for 9.99

🥰 aw shucks
Just info. the remastered in Steam is confirmed to have PSN requirements, unlike the original one.
Not a deal breaker for me. My PSN, EA, Epic accounts are already connected. I see it may be important for some though especially in countries where you can't access it.
@@melaplays Yeah, it makes it inaccessible in 120+ countries.
Lmao I'm equally excited loll always said zero dawn with forbidden west improvements would the bestest game ever. All for 10 dollars man can't wait.
I think this is why it needed to be done. The story is so good it deserves good mocap to tell it.
Hzd is a amazing game love it ❤
@@clark2 it's one of my favourites for sure.

Nope. Not going to happen
Horizon Zero Dawn with a Forbidden West garnish?
Serve me.
own the ps4 version so this is free for me?

zero dawn 2017 was perfect and didn't need for remastered
We need killzone remake
First Breath of the Wild
Then Baldur's Gate 3
And now Dragon Age: Veilguard
Have you learned nothing, Guerilla!?
I'm not fan of Horizon but it's only 10$, so i don't mind.

after the most disastrous game release in history comes one the most unnecessary remastered game in history. Hard pass
Cheers!
Cry more
not buy game 2 time that just waste money
So no new games, but recycled and rerecyled content......
The most pointless “Remaster” of all time when you can just mod the game on PC for FREE.
You are free to do what you want. Cheers!
