Yeah, I mean like, Sony-PlayStation's like live service initiative was no joke, everybody was like...it's live service games all around. Horizon is one of the few ones that hasn't been canceled or hasn't come out and flopped the way Concord did and so...yeah, a lot of questions. A lot of people are working on that."

We are back to "its so over"

No more fucking horizon or tlou, im sick of both franchise now

"Sony's Live Service Initiative was no joke"

We already received a huge joke recently, Herman.

Horizon Online will be the next joke.

 

[Auto_aim1]

OMFG no one wants Horizon my goodness. Playing it is like watching paint dry.

 

[Natsuko]

No thanks.

 

[firegamer273]

man i swear this gaming industry is in a depressing state

 

[RagnarokIV]

Christ almighty.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Mega flop incoming!

 

[Zathalus]

This GaaS push was an absolute disaster.

 

[Bartski]

Horizon is one of the few ones that hasn't been canceled

 

[cormack12]

Of all the projects, Horizon has the chops to be something decent and different online I think.

A dim happy with waiting a few years for Horizon 3, tlou 3 and spider 3

 

[Javi97]

Guerrilla games will be closed before 2030

 

[Auto_aim1]

Killzone 2 was released on the wrong console. Multiplayer was sick and the clan system was unmatched. If they released something like that on PS5 it would be an insane hit.

 

[Goalus]

OMFG no one wants Horizon my goodness. Playing it is like watching paint dry.

So it causes multiple yawns instead of zero yawn?

 

[coachmcguirk91]

I'd rather play whatever Horizon online is than Horizon 3. At least with Online, Guerilla will be forced to fix the mediocre combat, especially the melee. I do wish they'd just work on a new IP, though

Also, Schreier seems to be speculating a release timeline. It probably is at least 2 years away as HFW only released 2.5 years ago

 

[Badlucktroll]

goddammit they probably wasted so much time on this shit then it bonked now that gas crap is all cancelled and they have to start fresh making the shit people want

 

[Crispy Gamer]

This could be really good

 

[LectureMaster]

Sony-PlayStation's like live service initiative was no joke, everybody was like...it's live service games all around.

Might as well hire Men_in_Boxes

 

[tommib]

Horizon is a big enough franchise to be sustainable as a GaaS, I guess.

However, I will be lighting a candle every night to see this fail spectacularly.

 

[HRK69]

Go buy your pro!

 

[gokurho]

good bye Horizon

 

[Fake]

Cancel this trash. Lets not be another Concord.

Horizon Online will be the next joke.

Yeah, it was one of the best jokes in entire playstation history.

This should show them that they should stick to games that are successful for them (single player) but they will probably repeat this mistake once or... twice before understanding this.

 

[FeastYoEyes]

Absolutely no one wants any of these live service games. I can't see a world where the next few aren't canned immediately after release.

 

[Gerdav]

Horizon online, now that could give Concord a run for its money.

 

[veterangamerUK]

I need to find a new hobby

 

[Punished Miku]

Find a partner that looks at you the way Herman looks at Aloy.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

If it takes elements from Monster Hunter, it can be cool.

Will reserve judgement till I see it.

 

[Nordickratos]

The Horizon Online project seems like an attempt by Sony to have their Own Monster Hunter at home. If the PVE component is well crafted, and they use the range combat of the franchise and improved Melee, they could find success.

 

[Damigos]

I guess Sony will learn the hard way.
Like MS, like Ubisoft

 

[Hookshot]

Just give her an Astro bot costume and people will buy it.

 

[cormack12]

Find a partner that looks at you the way Herman looks at Aloy.

 

[Drunkensamurai]

This generation is the fucking worst. PS6 here I come.

 

[Represent.]

They will get the message after it fucking flops and they lose millions. Hopefully Herman is sent packing with them. Ridiculous strategy.

 

[Elios83]

Horizon has a lot of potential to be a strong western Monster Hunter competitor.
The potential around hunting the robot dinosaurs in co-op is huge in terms of possible fun, possibly even higher than another single player RPG with the same formula of the previous two games.
It's all about the execution.

 

[Moses85]

Mega flop incoming!

Next

Situation

 

[Methos#1975]

I'm honestly still interested in the Horizon game, I'm hoping it's just a live service robo dino MH reskin and I think if done well that could be moderately successful.

 

[Radical Dreamer]

Jesus fuck i really liked when i played zero down, but PlayStation and Hermen keeps jerking off to Aloy so much i cant stand this shit anymore. And dude I fucking hate Horison's music theme and this woman yapping.

 

[Unknown?]

OMFG no one wants Horizon my goodness. Playing it is like watching paint dry.

Someone got destroyed!

 

[Kurotri]

They are pushing the third game far away for some dumbass live service game no one asked for. Same way Naughty Dog lost years because of that Tlou multiplayer game. Insane decisions all around.

 

[MMaRsu]

Whoever asked for a fucking Horizon multiplayer game?



WITH THESE FUCKING DESIGNS??????????

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

Hermen is just one step away from sending nudes to Aloy's cosplayers. Someone, please lock him up.

 

[Robb]

Horizon Online Next for Guerilla

 

[NomenNescio]

I have yet to play a game from Guerilla that I like.

 

[Sushi_Combo]

This is exactly what I want, an online game of the most beloved franchise on the planet.

 

[asdasdasdbb]

You might be underestimating how popular live service games are. Will it flop? Probably... but that doesn't mean they aren't going to try.

 

[Woopah]

This. I always thought Horizon lent itself well to a MH-style game.

 

[vivftp]

That is placeholder art from very very very early in pre-production. No reason to believe that has any bearing on the final game.

And A LOT of people are asking for Horizon Online

Who the fuck wants an Horizon GaaS? Wait, I know, the suits that thought it would be an incredible idea.

Sony, are you really sure you want to Platinum the being utterly retarded game?

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I don't know. Guerilla knows good multiplayer and Horizon is immensely popular. A PvE robot monster hunter thing could work. But I guess we'll see.
