Source Gaming: A week before writing this column, two wonderfully outstanding works were released and I was torn between how to spend my time. Horizon Zero Dawn (from here on out “Horizon”) and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (further referred to as “Zelda”). By all means, play them both because they really are masterpieces.
With that being said, I am surprised by the fact that although there are aspects that are very close, there are other aspects that are very different.
ARK: Survival Ascended has introduced Premium Mods on consoles. Wccftech talked to Studio Wildcard and their partner Overwolf about the rising importance of user-generated content, especially for live service games.
Following a recent interview with Sony, Naughty Dog head Neil Druckmann claims the original intent was “unfortunately lost” in the process.
Glad he clarified it but i'm still somewhat skeptical. Plus, his comments about how Ai will revolutionize storytelling were still pretty iffy.
Druckmann claims the tech could 'push the boundaries of storytelling in games.'
I’m more interested in what else he said.
“Neil Druckmann says new Naughty Dog title could ‘redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming’
He also said it has "ethical issues we need to address" but of course that doesn't get the clicks.
I’m all for it. Cuts the time to make a game. Look, Hellblade 2 took 5 years to make, if AI can do that in half the time, as a consumer, I support it.
Masahiro Sakurai...guy who made Smash Bros and Kirby. Wow I'm surprised he's so honest about something Nintendo related and didn't just say it was "perfect" or "flawless". Takes balls in this industry.
Nintendon'ts trying to figure out how to down vote Sakurai's opinion ... Using the word tiresome alone brings 'em out
I like Zelda but I definitely had more fun playing Horizon. Both are great games though.
after reading the article im guessing theres a communication misunderstanding...
horizon has a smoother climbing system? how can that be accurate, it doesnt even have a climbing system.
