Same as yesterday, referencing slides that we don't get to see on the stream. Grrrr.
Great talk though.
Great talk though.

A village walkthrough will be good!!

Looks beautiful. Why l love Sony first party AAA games 
That is the premise of the panel, though:
Playstation said:
Edit:
Well, the person who came up with the concept is not on the panel, so maybe that's why they can't explain that.
Oh, okay. Sad.
I think when he says depth and hand gesture "down" , there is a whole world (dungeons) below the ground , i think. That can be counted as dungeon .
It seemed like kind of a roundabout 'yes' answer to me. Like, he wants to confirm it but he doesn't want to give a major plot point away regarding the technological origins in the game.
Well, the first 15 minutes were great, describing the design philosophy of the game. The latter part, though, is asking questions about specific elements of the game, and they obviously don't want to reveal those things all at once, so they will of course remain mum about that. Bit of a shame, the discussion leader should have prepared more good questions imo and not read off of twitter.
Edit:
Yeah, that could be. But I do find it weird they won't just say "yes, there are dungeons", followed by something like "but we can't go into too much detail about them". Not saying there are dungeons is a bit weird. Perhaps just a quirk of John Gonzales, though, as I said I doubt they will be missing.

It's not coming of on 28th of February is it? and is probably releasing sometimes in May or later.
Why do you think so? They reconfirmed on stage yesterday that it was coming at the end of February.
It looked like in the trailer from yesterday that there definitely is something underground that is technological. Whether or not that will amount to the traditional idea of a dungeon I guess we will see. Those worker robots might be building something that we will need to stop.
Also mentioned in the panel today, either Hermen or John said February 28.
They said February 28 twice in this very panel. Why do you say that?
Yes, basically that. Also, it may have some puzzle element (be it a maze or a puzzle mechanic) to make it kinda a challenge to navigate. And, of course, treasure and maybe a boss. Beyond that, it can be anything. For example in FFXV, dungeons are mines, castles but also simple thickets, caves and woods.
In my mind it would be like a dungeon from Zelda where there's a set of challenges like puzzles and difficult enemies with a boss at the end. Usually rewarding you with loot and character progression and maybe story advancement.
Okay, thanks. That's what I thought, but I wasn't completely sure.
Yeah, and also the red rock environments! They really are unique in modern games, have hardly seen them at all in games.

Best looking game I've ever seen. Lawd have merc. Please have great characters and a great story!
Saw a few images, not seeing the trailer. I've only seen 2-3 trailers so far and keeping it at that.

Druckmann has a panel on how he gets his beard so sparkly.

Do I really need to say it? Sony and on time releases don't compute it always needs to be delayed at least ones and at many others twice so yes I'm very sceptical of Horizon hitting it's set date.
There is Kinda Funny PS I Love You Panel and a panel on accessibility features.
Edit:
The game has been delayed once already (was slated for 2016, then came 28 February 2017), so that stage has been passed. Now you should need a reason to suggest why we should expect another delay, rather than "it's Sony".

The world building they're doing for this title is stunning. I cannot wait to play it. Could end up being one of the strongest new IP debuts ever.
Hahaha, i really wondered about that yesterday.

At least its not a straight up no. There is still hope.
I'm kind of with you on this. I really want it to come out asap but I wouldn't be surprised if it got a short delay of about a 3-6weeks. I'd be okay though, not sure I will finish Skyrim by then let alone all the other games I bought on Black Friday.
Them reiterating the release date is reassuring but until the game goes gold anything can happen.
We've seen Aloi fighting some people and we've also seen a human tribe that can seemingly control the corrupter scorpion bots in one of the trailers.
It's like every week starting January 19th (Gravity Rush 2) there is a game that I want to play. We will have to make choices, and plan the other games at some other time, probably during the summer. It is a better problem than there being a scarcity of fun games to play, for sure!
There are easily half a dozen games releasing in a two month period that I'm dying to play from Nier Automata to Persona 5 to Horizon Zero Dawn to Nioh and so on! I work full time and have no vacation time to spare!
You mean in the same fashion Aloi can hack the machines and use them to her advantage? What I've gathered from the narration hints is that the core of the world is mechanical and the enemy might just end up to be just some AI system (maybe in-line with Glados from portal) where the creatures are manufactured deep in the earth by AI machines and release on the surface.
Its only a short clip in passing so we don't get much info. Looks like a human dressed in black raising his fist up and the Scorpion bots following his lead. Could very well be something similar to Aloi as we see her and the corrupters using blue and red robotic tendrils to infect/control other machines respectively.
Where did we see this? I can't remember a scene like that.
