I played zero dawn before the remaster 2 years ago and I can't even continue past the first major quest. It felt very cheaply made and combat is not as fluid. I'm glad they did remaster it - I get to enjoy it fully now.

@@GreenScreenBartender While I agree with you, this is intentional according to Guerilla. They have said they want the world to look like a BBC nature documentary (think Planet Earth).
I know I'm far from the only one to point this out, but, although the remaster looks fantastic - and, arguably, near 'perfect' most of the time, if we didn't have the original to compare it to - It seems that some of the variety in look, ambience, feel, atmosphere has somewhat been lost... As if everything looks a little 'too good' all the time. Too clean with perfect greens everywhere. Not all biomes are super well-hydrated, so it seems pretty out of place in some places. Something that the original really didn't seem to suffer from. It's a little too boosted. Otherwise absolutely beautiful, of course! :)
Same with the lighting. Whether it's the scene or specifically on a characters model, some manage to be nice improvements, and others are suddenly missing shadows/details from natural lighting, leading to an almost plastic look
There’s a lot of little choices that I’m not sure on. Particularly in the desert areas… lots of the “lush green” has been emphasized, and the yellow/ochre was toned down. But… isn’t it supposed to look yellow? Isn’t that filter what gives an area its visual identity?
Yeah, I can see the added foliage, but some of that looks like a filter was switched off more than anything. In some parts, I would expect more muted colors. Foliage will look less colorful to our eyes when light is blocked by trees.
I'm not sure the pop-in like at 6:50 is worth the extra weed either. It seem a mixed bag overall. Some is better some is worse. The only thing I'd prefer throughout is probably the water. "nice water!" 😹
@epmcgee Just keep a look at the grass on the timestamp. I mean.. What's the point of increased draw when there is more pop-in right under your nose instead.
Just one quick suggestion for what it's worth, put the old or "worse" looking version on the left side and the newer or "best looking" one on the right side imo, it somehow feels more "natural" comparing and analysing them like this
Same here. I wanted to replay the game after 4 years, and the remastered version came out at the right time. Horizon series are my favorite modern games along with TLOU series and Skyrim.
The lighting in the original was very special, they explained that in an interview: they wanted to create a look that always feels like sunset/sundown, which was inspired by nature documentaries as far as i remember. This created a stunning look with warm and very strong colors. They removed that in the remake. Plus they could have used that possibility to change at last the major complaint of many players: not enough weapon slots. A second weapon wheel would be such a great addition to the game, because at some point you just start to not use many weapons because it's not fun to change the weapon wheel everytime before a fight.
Very strong first remaster effort from Nixxes here. Wonder if they'll be tapped on to remaster more games in the future (especially as they are running out of PS4/PS5 gen games to port to PC with Spiderman 2 in January next year lol)
@@bruxio76 all of those are earlier on in the gen and would need a remaster effort to at least a minor degree. Probable one you could get away with without a notable touchup is Shadow of the Colossus? And in the case of Shadow and Bloodborne, Bluepoint could handle either or both as TBH Bloodborne needs a full remake for its tech issues lol
@bruxio76 they really need to do something with bloodborne and it would be sick to see shadow of the colossus and the last guardian Sotc has disappointing low res on ps5 and TLG would be cool to see on PC just so more people can play it (it's a masterpiece no matter any tiktok brained people say about it being "frustrating" lol)
Horizon Zero Dawn is my first platinum. Im probably the only one on earth whos incredibly excited for this remaster. My only real hope and expectation is that upon new game plus, they give us the option to replay the intro again if we want to. Im greatly looking forward to this remaster personally
Do those plants at 6:49 not look a bit flat in the remaster compared to the original? Like the subsurface scatterning and shadows present in the original are missing completely
Yes, that is totally true, and that is due to global illumination and indirect light, but if you doesn't have raytracing Ambient occlusion, it kills all the shadows. so it looks plane dull and oversaturated, there are not contact shadows neither on models
3:14 Editing error here where the same line of dialogue from the script is stated twice: "Beyond image quality differences, however, these three modes are all roughly the same. Personally, the quality in performance mode is strong enough I recommend this mode over the others."
Clearly seen at 4:39, the Proctor's beard is not moving in the wind, and his mouth is glowing like it's made out of frosted glass. This issue of the mouth doesn't seem to be confined to just him, but to many incidental characters as well. Also, at 10:42 you can see Bahavas having a lot of issues with his sleeve clipping. At 13:55, you can see Aloy's eyelashes disappear when she turns her head. 18:17: That is draw-dropping.
LITERALLY. PS2 Slim Silver. Got my PS5 last year too. Gamestop told me the majority of games for it are still PS4. I said "great!" I never even had a Playstation 3 or 4. I'll pay 10 bucks for Remaster. I got both Horizons, and never played either because I'm still trying to beat all the other stuff I never got to play. 😅
@@vgnvideogameninja2930well, this remaster is also on pc as well. They straight up removed the original from steam and replaced it with this version so nah the ps5 pro version wont be better compared to a good pc. I almost forgot it was coming to pc, i forgot sony puts all their games there now lol but i think ill be fine with the base ps5 version and unlocked fps. The resolution/framerate is high enough
noted, the red pollen is missing on the new foliage which brings the question, does the atmosphere feel affected by this change? all the plants seem pristine instead of coated/decaying/infected like the original which seems like it should be a bigger deal artistically
The decay and pollen isn’t in Zero Dawn because it takes place earlier in the year and the biosphere hasn’t started breaking down yet, it’s not an issue with the remaster it’s a fact of the world.
This is one of those remakes that is made with love, for the love of the game by the developers, wanting to bring up the experience of the game to the level of Forbidden West, you can tell that they truly love their game and want us to see it in it's best light. and just £10 for all the work they have put into this remaster is not much to ask at all. It's just a pity that Sony got greedy and hiked up the price (that had been reduced for well over a year) right after the remaster announcement, to cash in on this.
6:49 the new plants look so much worse I'm surprised John didn't mention how they are basically glowing this obnoxious green color. Otherwise nice comparison of course, but the foliage color is crazy, looks like a bug.
I think it’s the sun going through the leaves. Shortly after that time they’re walking through an area with those plants and they seem to be normal when looking at them from above or when behind a wall. Also the trees show this with bright green only on the edges.
@@hayabusa09 What are you talking about? We are discussing changes to the gameplay or lack thereof, aka the Shieldwing not being added. How is your mind NOT on that when discussing the Shieldwing?
@travisspazz1624 Yeah, FW probably has more diversity overall, but I wish they had added a large city like Meridian. Plainsong and all those settlement-type of towns just felt like such a big downgrade imo
IMO if you look at both at 7:00 - OG looks way better because of the shadows and foliage, plus the color palate is more pleasing, not as saturated as in the remaster.
A reminder that you are watching this in SDR. The game will support HDR 10 on PS5 in both RGB and Yuv422. And probably RGB HDR in 60 fps 4K on PS5 PRO.
This remaster was all about future proofing the franchise and giving new players when the third game comes out a consistent experience and I'm all for it. I'm glad they took the time to get on this now vs rushing it closer to release of the third game to have a half-assed trilogy bundle.
FW was an instant buy for me because of my good feelings towards "Zero Dawn". Didn't particularly like FW so the third one is now on my "maybe on sale" list.
@@quademasters249 There were some story beats that I didn't entirely vibed with, but game mechanics-wise i still thought it was a nice improvement over ZD. I totally get why the third one would be a "maybe on sale" for you, though :)
@@TamTu 1 - I didn't like how they turned Aloy into a whiner. Her interactions with Silens were cringe worthy. 2- The "invincible shield" mcguffin simply shows the writers couldn't figure out how to make the Zenith a credible threat. Requiring Silens to come up with his own mcguffin to defeat the shield was more lame writing. 3 - Aloy diving head first into doing chores for a native dictator, to try to put down another dictator (Regalla) who didn't agree with the first one was lame. 4 - The combat was nerfed compared to ZD. They went so hard into trying to make it a collectible game for upgrades, it made normal combat worse. They way the bots would leap on top of you from across the screen was lame too. The environments were great for the most part. I enjoyed the exploration part of the game. The writing and plot had none of the power of ZD. It was like fan-fic.
@@quademasters249 Note that I didn't state anything in regards to the narrative choices in HFW. I agree with you on some parts, but from a game dev and tech perspective on what happened under the hood, I'm optimistic. I'm sure they've had a lot feedback on the story and narrative, nothing to do but to see and wait and see what happens on that end. Overall I'm glad that the total gaming and visual experience will be consistent at least in the future.
@@TamTu The hints they dropped at the end of FW that the next foe is some disembodied pool of ideas didn't bode well. My take on what happened with FW is that story was originally going to be all Regalla and the civil war. Then when they realized that wasn't enough, they patched in the silly "rich people are bad" plot with the invincible shield BS. Because the rich enemies were never really fleshed out. It smells of a "decisions made by committee" game. It was full of things that made no sense, that had to be there for the plot to happen. Sales suggest I'm not alone in my disdain. I knew it would be difficult to recapture the wonder of ZD. It just turned out worse than I expected.
I was one of those guys who were skeptical about HZD Remaster since the original game is already a masterpiece on its own. But after seeing this, I was blown away by everything Guerilla offered.
Right there with you! I beat it once on PS4 Pro, then once on PS5 with the 60fps update. Will probably do it again on PS5 Pro for $10. Meanwhile I just wasn’t captivated by Part 2 as much. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
13:40 come on. Just look how Alloy is brightly shining and totaly disconnected from the enviroment. Just like in any modern game. Why do they do this? It's just weird
No. Obviously. They could have remastered a dozen other more deserving titles. Or you know... make a new game Sony that isn't Concord. Edit: 6:507:06 also the remaster seems to have more vegetation pop in which is hugely distracting. Not good.
I really don't like that they've just imported matching foliage from Forbidden West and did not even adjust the textures accordingly. At minute 6:50 for example it clearly visible what I mean, neon green, unfitting plants, barely any animations (grass mainly), variation of plants etc. It just looks completely disconnected, there was no proper look dev done before shipping it. At 9:18 it is even better visible what I mean. However how they improved lighting and characters, as seen at 10:45 or 13:20 for example, I just love it! Just don't get why they haven't brought over the much better hair rendering from FW, at least for Aloy.
it's hard to say that until you actually see it.... HDR and such isn't something that's going to translate properly over RUclips. wait until you get it on your display to judge.
@@JayzVeez Bro it looks fine and has always been considered a beautiful game. I promise you over the last 7 years no one said “dude this game looks orange, it needs a remaster.” It’s only standing out because of the side by side.
9:16 The detail in the background looks so much more natural and improved in this shot. Neat to see the stormbird flying around in both versions waay far in the back. I’m really excited to play this game again.
I’ve always found HZD an excellent game and very good looking. But after playing through HFW and going back, I was surprised how flat HZD suddenly looked. A remaster isn’t a terrible idea. Now we can play the superior game with superior visuals.
@@Garudaintruda Is this really the consensus? I can see people liking the story better in Zero Dawn because it's just a more contained and personal story, but why do people prefer the gameplay in ZD? I just played through ZD for the first time last month and I'm about halfway through Forbidden West now and I felt like the gameplay is way better in FW. I felt like things were too simplistic in ZD and not very satisfying.
@@mmo5366 HZD also had a bit too much aliasing noise (especially on the ground) and the output was too darkish (but this could be a general problem with ps4 back compatibility on ps5) last time I played it
Just played the Zero Dawn first time a year ago and I really liked it. So nice to play at night when you just run around in the wild with the peaceful, serene ambient music. 10USD seems fair to me when I replay this great game.
This sold me, I think I'm going to replay it. I literally finished the original on PC 100% a few days before the announcement but the amount of changes and work put into it has swayed me. I really like this series so while I still think the time should've been into a different remaster, it looks like they did an amazing job!
The remaster looks insanely better, and for 10 euro, hell yeah I’ll upgrade. If anything these improvements are more drastic than what TloU part 2 and Tsushima got, but they didn’t need as much improving to be fair.
@@dolan_plz But atleast the PS3 had Exclusive titles, lol the PS5 doesn't even have 20 Exclusives as for now. Most games are still releasing on PS4 (HFW or GoD:R) or are out on PC (Like Ratchet and Clank)
@8:35 what is the "glow" around Aloy's hair/head? Looks like a cutout. Again @11:17. Some lighting effect applied to the outer like 1/2" of her hair... very strange
Can I get the water improvements without anything else? I don't like the remade people, and the foliage looks terrible. 6:48 Finding the difference isn't tricky at all with that neon foliage.
I feel like while Zero Dawn was a smaller game, I felt it was a better game in my opinion. Everything is a bit less busy. Overall I enjoyed Zero Dawn more.
@@HugoStiglitz88 as someone who has been ridiculed about buying a 4090 because I want to play the best way possible....some of you care way too much how others enjoy their game they bought with their money. If someone wants to play the performance mode in that game it is perfectly fine. The game is at 60 more often than not and even in a vrr window more than that. So maybe you are the fool
4:57 Imo those trees and grass looks better and more natural in the original version. Textures are better but overall I dont like it. Something is changed about lighting and this nice dof is missing.
Just turned on game, got through initial cinematic and god damn, something is really wrong with animations/physics side. Hopefully it can be fixed with patch or it is just a onetimer.
We’ve just bought a PS5 for our son for Xmas - but will be sharing this with him I didn’t have a PS4 so this is my first PS console for over a decade - I have picked up a copy of this remastered version and cannot wait to play it - it looks amazing
3:52 And this is why the PS5 Pro makes no sense. There shouldn't be a Performance Mode on it at all -- it should be a 60FPS Fidelity mode. If I'm not getting 4K 60FPS, what's the point of a $700 console?
This is a 1st party title of a PS4 game, it’s gonna run amazing obviously. 3rd party titles almost always look like Vaseline in performance mode hence why the ps5 pro exists
@@WolverineBatman depends on what you mean by 4k 60fps. because playstation uses checkerboard rendering it is not native so if you take that into account and get and nvidia card running dlss3 that will look much better than sonys upscaling method you can build a pc that will outperform the ps5 pro for about $500 if you shop on ebay and get some used parts and if you spent $700 you could get way way more performance
Todd Howard argues that the use of an over 20 year old engine for their games makes it easier to produce content, while bringing out a new game every 5-7 years, while Nixxes works with new engines, doing absolutely stunning work, for every game they add their magic to.
A $10 upgrade is a fine cost, but the price change of the original is terrible. Seems easy enough for Sony to differentiate between copies bought previously to copies bought recently and only allow cheap upgrades to previously purchased copies.
I remember years back Sony gave out free digital download for horizon zero dawn complete edition. That’s how I got mine. I wonder if I’ll be able to upgrade for 10 bucks?

Something that the original really didn't seem to suffer from. It's a little too boosted. Otherwise absolutely beautiful, of course! :)
Same with the lighting. Whether it's the scene or specifically on a characters model, some manage to be nice improvements, and others are suddenly missing shadows/details from natural lighting, leading to an almost plastic look
There’s a lot of little choices that I’m not sure on. Particularly in the desert areas… lots of the “lush green” has been emphasized, and the yellow/ochre was toned down. But… isn’t it supposed to look yellow? Isn’t that filter what gives an area its visual identity?
Yeah, I can see the added foliage, but some of that looks like a filter was switched off more than anything. In some parts, I would expect more muted colors. Foliage will look less colorful to our eyes when light is blocked by trees.
I'm not fan of fluo green vegetations like at 5:00, I définitely prefer the original DA version.
Yeah, I feel like they mostly just turned plants bright green and called (that part) a day
I'm not sure the pop-in like at 6:50 is worth the extra weed either.
It seem a mixed bag overall. Some is better some is worse. The only thing I'd prefer throughout is probably the water.
"nice water!" 😹
@epmcgee Just keep a look at the grass on the timestamp.
I mean.. What's the point of increased draw when there is more pop-in right under your nose instead.
They turned the green ferns and trees into neon lights. 😂
Just one quick suggestion for what it's worth, put the old or "worse" looking version on the left side and the newer or "best looking" one on the right side imo, it somehow feels more "natural" comparing and analysing them like this
Agreed
Zero Dawn is truly one of my favorite PS4/5 games. I have no problem paying 10 Euros more. I've been wanting to do a replay soon anyway.
Agreed!
Yeah. This game was already epic. Nog it's just perfect to do the new game plus. Just amazing game !!
Same here. I wanted to replay the game after 4 years, and the remastered version came out at the right time.
Horizon series are my favorite modern games along with TLOU series and Skyrim.
The lighting in the original was very special, they explained that in an interview: they wanted to create a look that always feels like sunset/sundown, which was inspired by nature documentaries as far as i remember. This created a stunning look with warm and very strong colors. They removed that in the remake. Plus they could have used that possibility to change at last the major complaint of many players: not enough weapon slots. A second weapon wheel would be such a great addition to the game, because at some point you just start to not use many weapons because it's not fun to change the weapon wheel everytime before a fight.
Warm colors? Did u see the video all the way through? Look at the canyon and dessert scenes, it's still there
That was just PR
There were too many weapons in the sequel. I hated the sequel. Sometimes less is more.

Very strong first remaster effort from Nixxes here. Wonder if they'll be tapped on to remaster more games in the future (especially as they are running out of PS4/PS5 gen games to port to PC with Spiderman 2 in January next year lol)
Running out? What about Bloodborne, Shadow of the colossus, the last guardian, gravity rush 1/2 etc.?
@@bruxio76 all of those are earlier on in the gen and would need a remaster effort to at least a minor degree.
Probable one you could get away with without a notable touchup is Shadow of the Colossus?
And in the case of Shadow and Bloodborne, Bluepoint could handle either or both as TBH Bloodborne needs a full remake for its tech issues lol
@bruxio76 they really need to do something with bloodborne and it would be sick to see shadow of the colossus and the last guardian
Sotc has disappointing low res on ps5 and TLG would be cool to see on PC just so more people can play it (it's a masterpiece no matter any tiktok brained people say about it being "frustrating" lol)
Wish they'd remaster Assassin's Creed Black Flag or Deus Ex Mankind Divided
Obligatory Bloodborne 60fps upgrade comment.
Horizon Zero Dawn is my first platinum. Im probably the only one on earth whos incredibly excited for this remaster. My only real hope and expectation is that upon new game plus, they give us the option to replay the intro again if we want to.
Im greatly looking forward to this remaster personally
Same!
You know you really love a game when you find that you've played it so much you accidentally platinumed it haha
Dude I'm looking forward to playing it again, looks great
Plenty of rage farming with this game from haters who will always find a reason to criticise anything about the game.
Enjoy it 👍

@@schneckenwilly Lol
@@schneckenwilly There will be a Forbidden West Remaster for it.
Do those plants at 6:49 not look a bit flat in the remaster compared to the original? Like the subsurface scatterning and shadows present in the original are missing completely
Yes, that is totally true, and that is due to global illumination and indirect light, but if you doesn't have raytracing Ambient occlusion, it kills all the shadows. so it looks plane dull and oversaturated, there are not contact shadows neither on models
They look over saturated and almost neon. Also I thought the actual plant assets themselves looked worse In the remaster, especially the ferns
3:14 Editing error here where the same line of dialogue from the script is stated twice: "Beyond image quality differences, however, these three modes are all roughly the same.
Personally, the quality in performance mode is strong enough I recommend this mode over the others."
I am curious what Nixxes did to improve the PC port further now that they get to fully redo alot more of the game.
Take a look at the PC trailer for the remaster. Immediately you can see that background characters run at full FPS instead of half or quarter.
Clearly seen at 4:39, the Proctor's beard is not moving in the wind, and his mouth is glowing like it's made out of frosted glass. This issue of the mouth doesn't seem to be confined to just him, but to many incidental characters as well.
Also, at 10:42 you can see Bahavas having a lot of issues with his sleeve clipping.
At 13:55, you can see Aloy's eyelashes disappear when she turns her head.
18:17: That is draw-dropping.
I noticed this immediately! I instantly couldn't get on board no matter how lush the plants are
Poor Rost looks like wax figure in this remaster
As someone who just got a PS5 last year, my last console was PS2. I just started playing horizon and this remaster will do wonders for me.
LITERALLY. PS2 Slim Silver. Got my PS5 last year too. Gamestop told me the majority of games for it are still PS4. I said "great!" I never even had a Playstation 3 or 4. I'll pay 10 bucks for Remaster. I got both Horizons, and never played either because I'm still trying to beat all the other stuff I never got to play. 😅
Horizon series is much more than graphics : gameplay, combat system, lore, story, characters are second to none.
I think it's a nice option for upgrade. PS5 was stuck with ps4 version while pc had nice upgrades over ps4 version. For 10 dollars is fair.
And now with it running on PS5 Pro, that version > PC version.

@@vgnvideogameninja2930 PC has the same remaster. so how exactly should it be better on the pro? 🤣
noted, the red pollen is missing on the new foliage which brings the question, does the atmosphere feel affected by this change? all the plants seem pristine instead of coated/decaying/infected like the original which seems like it should be a bigger deal artistically
The foliage looks more overly bright and artificial in the remaster
If I remember correctly, the decay started after the events of Zero Dawn.
The red pollen never existed in zero dawn, it came with forbidden west
The decay and pollen isn’t in Zero Dawn because it takes place earlier in the year and the biosphere hasn’t started breaking down yet, it’s not an issue with the remaster it’s a fact of the world.
It's not "missing" the red pollen didn't exist in the original game.
This is one of those remakes that is made with love, for the love of the game by the developers, wanting to bring up the experience of the game to the level of Forbidden West, you can tell that they truly love their game and want us to see it in it's best light. and just £10 for all the work they have put into this remaster is not much to ask at all. It's just a pity that Sony got greedy and hiked up the price (that had been reduced for well over a year) right after the remaster announcement, to cash in on this.
at 3:30 I think you left the narration twice hehehe
the original foliage looks WAY better here 5:01
same here 6:48
Yeah, looks like the remaster has no lighting
No it doesn’t 😂
not at all
Lol no way. Capping haaaaaaard!!! It looks dull and lifeless in the original. Nostalgia is hell of a drug.
For $10 this is amazing work, they have done here
6:49 the new plants look so much worse I'm surprised John didn't mention how they are basically glowing this obnoxious green color. Otherwise nice comparison of course, but the foliage color is crazy, looks like a bug.
I think it’s the sun going through the leaves. Shortly after that time they’re walking through an area with those plants and they seem to be normal when looking at them from above or when behind a wall. Also the trees show this with bright green only on the edges.

I think I might prefer Forbidden West more, but I did indeed miss Meridian.

Game is down right beautiful.

Down left
IMO if you look at both at 7:00 - OG looks way better because of the shadows and foliage, plus the color palate is more pleasing, not as saturated as in the remaster.
A reminder that you are watching this in SDR.
The game will support HDR 10 on PS5 in both RGB and Yuv422.
And probably RGB HDR in 60 fps 4K on PS5 PRO.
This remaster will be excuse for many players to revisit this amazing game...I mean, $10 for this upgrade is worthwhile imo...
This remaster was all about future proofing the franchise and giving new players when the third game comes out a consistent experience and I'm all for it. I'm glad they took the time to get on this now vs rushing it closer to release of the third game to have a half-assed trilogy bundle.
FW was an instant buy for me because of my good feelings towards "Zero Dawn". Didn't particularly like FW so the third one is now on my "maybe on sale" list.
@@quademasters249 There were some story beats that I didn't entirely vibed with, but game mechanics-wise i still thought it was a nice improvement over ZD. I totally get why the third one would be a "maybe on sale" for you, though :)
@@TamTu
1 - I didn't like how they turned Aloy into a whiner. Her interactions with Silens were cringe worthy.
2- The "invincible shield" mcguffin simply shows the writers couldn't figure out how to make the Zenith a credible threat. Requiring Silens to come up with his own mcguffin to defeat the shield was more lame writing.
3 - Aloy diving head first into doing chores for a native dictator, to try to put down another dictator (Regalla) who didn't agree with the first one was lame.
4 - The combat was nerfed compared to ZD. They went so hard into trying to make it a collectible game for upgrades, it made normal combat worse. They way the bots would leap on top of you from across the screen was lame too.
The environments were great for the most part. I enjoyed the exploration part of the game. The writing and plot had none of the power of ZD. It was like fan-fic.
@@quademasters249 Note that I didn't state anything in regards to the narrative choices in HFW. I agree with you on some parts, but from a game dev and tech perspective on what happened under the hood, I'm optimistic.
I'm sure they've had a lot feedback on the story and narrative, nothing to do but to see and wait and see what happens on that end. Overall I'm glad that the total gaming and visual experience will be consistent at least in the future.
@@TamTu The hints they dropped at the end of FW that the next foe is some disembodied pool of ideas didn't bode well.
My take on what happened with FW is that story was originally going to be all Regalla and the civil war. Then when they realized that wasn't enough, they patched in the silly "rich people are bad" plot with the invincible shield BS. Because the rich enemies were never really fleshed out.
It smells of a "decisions made by committee" game. It was full of things that made no sense, that had to be there for the plot to happen.
Sales suggest I'm not alone in my disdain. I knew it would be difficult to recapture the wonder of ZD. It just turned out worse than I expected.

Right there with you! I beat it once on PS4 Pro, then once on PS5 with the 60fps update. Will probably do it again on PS5 Pro for $10. Meanwhile I just wasn’t captivated by Part 2 as much. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
13:40 come on. Just look how Alloy is brightly shining and totaly disconnected from the enviroment. Just like in any modern game. Why do they do this? It's just weird
This is like breath of the wild in PS space
No. Obviously.
They could have remastered a dozen other more deserving titles. Or you know... make a new game Sony that isn't Concord.
Edit: 6:50 7:06 also the remaster seems to have more vegetation pop in which is hugely distracting. Not good.
I really don't like that they've just imported matching foliage from Forbidden West and did not even adjust the textures accordingly. At minute 6:50 for example it clearly visible what I mean, neon green, unfitting plants, barely any animations (grass mainly), variation of plants etc. It just looks completely disconnected, there was no proper look dev done before shipping it. At 9:18 it is even better visible what I mean.
However how they improved lighting and characters, as seen at 10:45 or 13:20 for example, I just love it! Just don't get why they haven't brought over the much better hair rendering from FW, at least for Aloy.
I never doubt Nixxes honestly
1:34 The original looks way more natural with the lighting. Remaster looks more like a cartoon.
