New IP. Should have a shitton of SP gaming hours. Depending on reception, we'll get that good MP/co-op in the sequel.

Same. I returned ShadowFall after a week, such mediocre overhyped shit, but this looks awesome.
Overhyped? Pretty sure it got lukewarm reviews from a lot of people. Holds a 73 at Metacritics now and 74% at GameRankings, which (for AAA games) can be considered a pretty low score.

What do mp or coop? Is this confirmed. Hype deflated

My most anticipated game. Can't wait to see more
Great job guerrilla, great job.
Great job guerrilla, great job.
Seemed lukewarm at the time of release but compared to a load of the broken at launch pieces of crap we've been served up since it was pretty damn underrated.
Confirmed by Hulst today.

Wow wait, no mp? Not even coop?
Mount the robots? What kind of game do you think this is!?
If I had to guess, I'd say yes. They show a hunter on top of one of the robosaurs in the concept art.

The Order not having MP was not it's problem....
The Order wasn't an open world RPG.

Yeah just look at Witcher 3 such a bomba for being SP only...
No MP was not The Order's problem.
Just look at the Witcher 3. Open world action-RPGs without MP have no trouble getting critical acclaim and great sales.

Since when were open world ROLE PLAYING GAMES required to have MP?
I must've missed that memo.

No co-op or multiplayer of any kind? Well there goes the Monster Hunter element...
Hey GAF!
Mark Norris, Senior Producer on Horizon Zero Dawn here. I just wanted to say thanks so much for the kind words from many of you on the thread here so far, and that some of your questions (but definitely not all!) will be answered over the course of the next couple days.
One thing I can confirm for you is that every single shot in the demo video was taken from in-game, and those locations are discoverable over the course of your journey.
I'll let you get back to the regularly scheduled speculation
kudos on actually having gameplay for your reveal and not just some cg trailer.
If you weren't aware, mp/co-op are not confirmed for this game.

No. It's single player only. Thankfully not online.

Well there is at least 1 in all the ones I can think of that has it(MH), just 1. Lol
But anyway if they do decide to add MP to the sequel I wouldn't mind. GG knows how to do multiplayer. If they don't, I don't mind either, keep the games SP and story focused.
The Witcher says hi.

The Holy Trifecta made Sony's E3 one for the history books but this game is easily among my favourites thus far. Everything about it just screams awesome. And on a more personal note, I'm glad that this game is using the third-person perspective. As someone who couldn't play a lot of FPS games due to motion sickness, it would be incredibly sad to miss out on a game that has a very promising premise.
Great job, GG! Couldn't wait to hear more about this game and finally play it.

Were people outraged over no MP for TW3 too? I haven't missed it one second whilst playing it.

I get the feeling this is gonna do crazy numbers, especially in Europe. Like 6 million+

I'm pretty sure it was some sort of tutorial level or created especially for demonstration purposes. I expect that further in the game it will become toned down and more 'meaningful'.
Neither. All the content will come from exploration and questing like traditional open world RPG's.
As an aside hiring one of Obsidian's lead writers and Cd Projekt's lead quest designer to work on this gives me a lot of hope.

Maybe my favorite thing about the whole demo was the art direction. It pushed all my buttons. And now we've learned that all those places in the demo flyover are real and explorable?
This is like my dream game that I've never dreamed of because I'm not cool enough.
