Because they come out in the same week, are both colourful and open world, and fanboys.

Those are more broad similarities. That says nothing about similarities between the worlds.

What has been worrying about the gameplay outside of "Well, GG"? It looks good, previews up to this point have praised it, etc...
I'm just curious because I keep seeing this. I mean, sure, it may not be great but some of the comments make it seem like it could turn out bad and I'm just not seeing anything indicative of that.
it doesn't look bad in any of the previews I've seen but it also looks a bit bland for some reason...hopefully they set out to make a good game and not just a good-looking game

I haven't played zelda and farcry. But you realized all 3 of those list applied to Witcher too, right?

It matters to the many people with discerning eyes like myself.
I personally see a significant graphical leap between PS4 and PS4 Pro. So if the difference between Xbox One and Project Scorpio is at least as much [which most are expecting], then yes there very much will be. I am personally expecting to see a generational leap between the two, especially taking into account that Microsoft has been so overtly marketing it in that precise fashion.
So then,

You won't see a generational leap because:
1. Software is tied to base hardware
2. Specs are not next gen
Think of it as playing Gears of War 4 on a PC with something between an RX 480 and GTX 1070.

1. Why assume that every dev will scale up as opposed to scale down? Maybe some creative minds will build their game with Scorpio in mind and wind everything back for the Xbox One version. You can't say they won't, because you don't know yet. It's not out.
2. No one knows all the specs, and we will all have to wait to see for ourselves when the time comes. Again, you can't know.
Scorpio isn't out, no one knows all the specs, and we've not seen a single game performance running on the hardware.
You're speaking as if you know insider information about an unreleased console with 100% certainty based on speculation and assumption. It says more about you than it does my curiosity and expectations. I'm not going to sit here an say that my guesses are right and yours are wrong... I'll wait for Microsoft's next console to come out, observe, learn, then form opinions based on my experience actually seeing what we're attempting to discuss here. That way, maybe some day in the future a reasonable and factual discussion about this can happen.

But back to the subject at hand, Horizon looks pretty good for a console game. A decent Faux-K presentation.
Pretty good lol? I have a high-end PC and this is my most anticipated game. No PC game in existence offers what this game is bringing. This looks more than PRETTY GOOD at 30FPS bud.
As for Scorpio's performance there is no way they can keep it compatible while delivering even Native 4K content for all games unless they are 30FPS. Even then they won't make that for all games. 4K is not worth the bandwidth in many scenarios. Supersampling and better graphics are a more logical choice than pure 4K until you got the detail and power to make 4K worth it IMO.

Horizon looks good in general.

As if comparing Horizon to Zelda wasn't enough, then it was that one scene... now there seems a need for some to regularly bring up in conversation a console that's not even out yet...
If there's one thing GG managed with Horizon, it's bringing out the best in people.
Cauldrons look unique and exciting to explore.

It reminds me of that scene in Transformers when they are in that ship as stowaways
How are those different from Zelda BOTW world?
There appear to be a handful of folks who look to start some shitfest in every Zelda and Horizon thread.

That is your opinion, and it is no more correct than mine. Checkerboarding doesn't look great to me, even though most others seem to really like it. What looks good to me won't look good to another, and vice versa. And that's perfectly alright, we can all of us simply agree to disagree.
Some of those textures look sort of dodgy, but the game looks good otherwise.
Really hoping that this game is not as close to Far Cry 4's idea of what constitutes an RPG as I fear.
You are trying too hard.

What is even the point of this post, especially in this thread?

Lighting and IQ wise they both look the same to me
horizon does seem to have better draw distance , foliage animations,alpha effects and such and just generally more complex polygons thrown into mosters and environments
Have u seen the word ''Scorpio'' being thrown around in every PS4 thread? This is just that, but with more texts add to it.
After Browsing the 4Chan Thread yesterday, I need some time out
Although The Topic of discussion was the same, "There no such thing as good Graphics on console" I think having a Poor Laptop/PC let me appreciate the Console Graphics.

Okay, visuals are subjective at some level so that was too definitive...but what I think of core visual attributes - lighting, character and world geometry, post processing and effects - look a step forward here from what I played in Witcher 3, even Blood and Wine, which look quite a bit nicer than the main game... I expect Cyberpunk 2077 to improve quite handily over Witcher though, and it is probably my most anticipated game.

Sounds like someone desperate for some 1st party on their xbox
Stop with this shit already. Faux-K, like you said, is 2160c. It is a 4K picture where you only render half of the pixels per frame and search for the others informatiob elsewhere in past frames.
Not only it's a 4K picture in the end, but the odd pixels it creates are small and the artifacts it creates in movement are less an issue than motion resolution on most TVs.
You are here to shit over it and that's all. So please, if you aren't interested about that game, leave the discussion about OP in peace.
We don't need it to be the best graphic demo humans have created.
I think its not absolutely Missing , its 4x or 8x , pro will support higher AF confirmed.

this game is highly likely to be the best looking open world game for a long time

Please rehost.
Because both games feature a
post apocalyptic open world where nature has rebuilt after machines have wiped out most of humanity
Both games are action RPGs that have Bow, Melee and
Mounted
Stats based inventory (clothing)
Both games contain
Dungeons
Both games use
flashbacks as the main way they tell the story about how the world came to be

Have you played The Witcher 3? Because everything you mentioned can be applied to that as well.

Jesus, that 4Chan thread is full of complete retards, as a PC gamer myself, it's embarrassing. It's really sad how some people have to justify owning a really expensive gaming PC by saying Horizon (or any good looking console game) looks crap.
The thing is we are also discussing the same in here , if you can check some post above , but without much of swearing.

Yeah but some of the posts I've seen over there are far worse than anything on here, its just pages of hate, people openly saying they want the game to fail and they can't wait for it to happen.
Yeah I agree on that, Its getting absurd amount of hate there. idk Why though?
Yautja_Warrior

Haters gonna hate I guess but it is ridiculous.
Maybe some of them are PC only gamers and hate the fact that they won't get to play this great looking game.
A lot of them are really talking up PC graphics too, like they have to justify their expensive PC. Maybe the fact Horizon has really great graphics but runs on a much cheaper console, makes them feel insecure about their gaming machine of choice, who knows for sure with idiots like that.

This is my first and final reply to theshape31 in this thread, I don't want to derail it.
Current-gen multiplatform engines are already quite good at scaling from Xbox One to high end gaming PCs and vice versa.
Except Microsoft of course. What they have revealed gives us a rough idea of what to expect.
Performance and image quality won't be far from what's achievable on a RX 480 paired with a decent CPU.
What are you on? Microsoft have themselves mentionend the following:
Eight CPU cores
Over 320GB/s of memory bandwidth
Six teraflops (TF) of GPU power
What?
Then why did you bring up Project Scorpio in an unrelated thread?
Unless you've got something better to show for yourself, I'm not going to argue against your 'pretty good for a console game' and 'Faux-k' fallacious opinion.

I'm so sick of it. Some people just want to argue for no reason.
Yes, both games share similarites by being open world, but at their core, they are completely differents.
Anyway, I'm excited for both and I'm pretty sure Horizon and BotW will do great.
