That trash IP has generated over $1 Billion! Maybe learn what a good IP is first.

To be fair they didn’t launch it directly next to a massively hyped modern masterpiece as is the custom with the Horizon series

This is where reviewers need to check themselves. I was reading the Eurogamer review this morning and this is the subhead
Too simple and childish for adults: Yes, it's a lego game
and too one-note to convert the kids: I'm planning on playing this with my 6 year old. She enjoyed the Horizon level in Astrobot, and loves watching me find and climb on Tall Necks in the remaster. She's not going to play the Horizon games anytime soon, so no conversion needed. We just want a fun co-op game to play together.

Again, this sounds perfect for a kid. Short enough that we can probably finish it in a weekend, simple and repetitive enough that she can grasp/master it relatively quickly.

Most high profile LEGO games tend to score in the low to mid 80s. This is fairly low for a High profile LEGO game.

Half-assed efforts like this and the next Horizon MOBA won't turn the IP into Horizons Creed. Not happening.
In the next report, Totoki-san will tell us how Wukong saved them again from another embarrassment by Hermen Hulst.

Its a Lego. I know you're a fanboy sicko, but even for Lego that doesn't matter. Its another public entirelly.
Whats next? Horizon Kart game? Horizon farm simulator? Lol only you and Hermen would justify these silly routes for Horizon spamming these numbers in every opportunity.

Hermen hits again. Sony's trajectory towards 'mid' continues.

Sounds like it's a pretty standard LEGO game then. Shocking.

Except it's not made by TT. I think people were hoping that would give it some freshness, but it seems like they just did the same thing, better in some ways worse than others.

Oh look, as average as anyone could have ever imagined
Horizon as is, it's not some outstanding franchise, but the robo-dinos are what makes it attractive, I don't know anyone who played the games, clamoring for a game focused on the redhead with the personality of an amoeba

GameFly has already notified me that this will be shipping soon so I’ll be giving it a try. But reading all the reviews, even the positive ones make the same point about the extremely dumbed down level design.
Seems like Studio Gobo just couldn’t emulate Travelers Tales LEGO “magic”. It’s nice the entire world is made of LEGO and destructible, unlike TT games, but that doesn’t really matter if the gameplay doesn’t make you want to stick around.
Guess I’ll find out myself in a few days and at least I’m only paying a rental fee.
I see the usual suspects are out here shitting on Horizon.
Your precious Killzone isn’t coming back. Two Horizon games have sold better than the entire Killzone franchise. If you don’t like it, that’s a you problem.

That wasn’t what I was saying. Kids in general don’t care about Horizon.

I wouldn't say it was totally out of line. Time, money and resources went into this which could've or might've been spent elsewhere.
I'm still waiting for Horizon cart. Get in gear, Hulst.

Holy shit, this must be one the biggest threads out there to show how absolute retarded this forum has become.
>kids don't care about horizon lul
Yeah we know, smoothbrain, every game in the series UP UNTIL NOW was rated T, this title was made for a reason. You know what kids don't care about either? Review scores and unhinged hatred against the series in general or Aloy.
I mean, there's at least two parents in this very thread looking to buy the game for their children. This little piece of data isn't obviously a full representation of the real world appeal, but you know? Take it as you will.

I have a feeling some of those reviewing it aren't judging it by Lego standards but by Sony/Horizon standards. The game looks (graphically) like the best a Lego game has ever looked and playability wise looks to just replicate what other Lego games have done before it with a bit of Horizon combat thrown in. Either way, I dont care, I've seen enough to know the game looks fun and I'll enjoy it, it isn't groundbreaking and it doesn't need to be. I've also enjoyed other cutesy short-ish platformers on PS5 this gen like Sackboy and Astro, sometimes these fun little games are a nice distraction (and like Sackboy this looks like its very fun multiplayer co-op)

I wonder if you will also claim that woke reviewers are trying to hurt Lego Horizon or some shit like that.

In what part of my post I was mad?
If anything this situation and your attitude(defensive, spamming emojis and "don't buying" rebutal) are funny lol

Some of the reviews saying this game is based on a modern "classic"! In what fucking world are we living in where Horizon is a classic game? Fuck me the bar is so low for classics we are putting Horizon in that category???

If you think so, but Sony already made dozens of games with scores like this in past gens.
I just looked up and Knack 2 (that was being released in a similar point of PS4's lifecycle) got a MC score of 69, and you know? I enjoyed the fuck out of that game, especially in co-op which seems to be a big focus on Lego Horizon as well.
Sony was also publishing games like Knowledge is Power or SingStar Celebration in the fall of 2017 that weren't exactly hits with reviewers either, but they still managed to do well, at least in some particular markets like Europe.

Don't you mean Studio Gobo game? Or was you referring to IP?
This is a very interesting studio, despite the fact that they have existed since 2011, they do not have their own full-fledged games. They work on the side of other studios, helping them with development.
Developer
Guerrilla Games
Studio Gobo
In this case, they helped the guys from Guerrilla Games.
