CosmoNova, do games w Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition comes to PC on March 21

Glad to see it‘s finally complete after all this time and ready to leave early access.

Pyr_Pressure,

I don’t understand why it takes so long for a PC version.

Were they not making it at the same time as the PlayStation version? Were they waiting to see if it was a success before starting?

Or were they simply milking it on PlayStation first to make sure PC sales didn’t interfere with PlayStation sales?

Guerrilla doesn’t do their own PC ports, they are handed to a company called Nixxes and I assume they only start working after everything including DLCs is out of the door and they are free.

Plus $$$, games released later on PC often are bought twice. Once on console and again on PC. I own two copies of most of the best games on PS4…

I know I have a problem…

Was the original release in a poor state?

one day before Dragons Dogma 2…uff

kboy101222,

Would it be a Horizon game if it didn’t release at the same time as a another major release!

I swear it’s purposeful at this point

BudgieMania,

watch From Software snipe them with the release of the DLC for Elden Ring too, I bet they were waiting for this news to release it on the same week lol

kboy101222,

If FS announces that Shadow is coming out within a day or so of Horizon I will absolutely die of laughter. The Horizon guys really need to get better about release dates

I'm not sure how I feel about this one, because I think that a large part of my enjoyment of the first one was unraveling the mystery of what had happened to the world, and that's all but gone now. We'll see I guess.

MrGerrit,

That slow reveal of the first game was so will done, I was going: what? What? WHAT?! So eager to see what would come next.

That sure isn’t the case now. What keep me going was going is the game play. I just love riding the machines, hunting and upgrade my gear and skills.

echo64,

For what it’s worth, yes, you know the premise now. But the second game still has a lot of peeling away the past to discover meaning in the present

BudgieMania,

hhhhmmmmm I don't know, I'm not sure I'm interested in discovering more details
I was interested in the general what, not so much on the specific who's or how's, if that makes sense
But I won't fully knock it until I try it

When’ are we going to get Ghost of Tsushima on PC, Sony?

Batbro,

For real! Hurry up

frazorth,

I had that on Playstation.

The first half was pretty good but the grind to progress get monotonous. It’s like half a poor copy of Uncharted, and half poor Tekan.

Only 2 years late

Late for what?

snugglesthefalse,

The game came out nearly 2 years ago but we’re only now seeing it on pc? It’s late.

UndercoverUlrikHD,
@UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev avatar

Late for what though? Unless you got hours of spare time to play every day, there’s more great games to play than one got time to play. The graphics is still top of the class and the gameplay is modern, the game isn’t outdated whenever it arrives on PC.

Zahille7,

Because that’s how these ports work? Same thing happened with God of War (2018) and Spider-Man/Miles Morales. Even with the first Horizon game.

snugglesthefalse,

It shouldn’t be how it works, it’s getting better but it’s still not there.

Zahille7,

Well it is. I’m as disappointed as the next guy, but I can wait a while until it does finally come to PC. There are literally thousands of other games to play while you wait.

cyberpunk007,

Better late than never

I just finished Zero Dawn this past week so I’m pretty pumped

june,

Forbidden west is an excellent successor

YodaDaCoda,

I hated it.

june,

That’s ok. It’s not for everyone.

Zahille7,

I just finished it last week myself. It felt a little clunky at times, but I started to get into it after a little while.

I can’t wait to put this on my wishlist and wait another 2 years for it to drop to $30.

    I did too until I realized they almost always come buggy as shit.

    I couldn’t run Horizon Zero Dawn for more than 15 minutes until about 8 months past release. They ain’t spending that time between PlayStation release and PC release getting ready.

    The delay is purely about piracy, if I had to guess. It only makes sense if you believe piracy affects sales negatively, but these corporate publishers are incapable of thinking anything else. Their entire business model revolves around artificial gatekeeping, so they simply cannot admit that that whole segment of their work is pointless.

    Piracy is a service problem, and releasing a buggy port with enormous delays is bad service. It doesn’t make me want to spend my money with them.

    Patches,

    You think it’s piracy? Or PlayStation being so deluded that they think you’ll absolutely spend $600 to buy their system because “(Game) is so good”. I mean shit I’ve never played, and will likely never play Bloodborne.

    Idk who the person where $600 + $60 Game = Must play makes sense - but it ain’t me.

    There is the exclusives thing, but I think it goes the other way. The consoles are loss-leaders, meaning they’re manufactured at a loss, then they make their money on game sales. So they need game sales to make up the numbers.

    Yes, people buy playstations for the exclusives, because they know there will be many. Also I guess once you buy it you may need to justify the expense with more game purchases.

    Now Sony is the publisher, so they get money either way. It may be that the cut is apportioned differently for PS sales, maybe the PS division needs to protect their numbers, but I know games companies in the past have talked about their reluctance to release on PC because of piracy, and the attitude seems to me to be that PC users need to be taught a lesson.

    Personally I think the whole walled garden ecosystem is bullshit and in an ideal world we’d all be running open source software on open source hardware, and the only new hardware you’d get would be for performance upgrades, or because you wanted a handheld or a second machine. There wouldn’t be this situation where people buy three separate machines just because some people decided their proprietary games would only work on their proprietary machines. It’s absurdly wasteful.

    Zahille7,

    I mean I was real tempted to get a PS5 so I could play Soider-Man 2 and the new God of War.

    But then I just watched a playthrough of each online.

    MrGerrit, do games w Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition comes to PC on March 21

    Damn, I wish I had a high end pc. Game looked beautiful on the PS5, would love to play it again with all the settings turned up to the max.

    hperrin, do games w Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition comes to PC on March 21

    Hell yes!

    Am I mistaken or are there loads of games this month for PS+ Essential, where usually there are 3?

    phillaholic,

    These are Extra games. Essential has 3 this month: The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22, Weird West

    UwixTheWizard,
    @UwixTheWizard@beehaw.org avatar

    Damn, I’ve been bamboozled again (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ I keep confusing Extra and Essential, why couldn’t they have come up with a better name?

    phillaholic,

    I was thinking they’d use:

    Bronze: just the account Silver: “Essential” 3 free games a month Gold: “Extra” game library Platinum: “Premium” game streaming and classics

    UwixTheWizard,
    @UwixTheWizard@beehaw.org avatar

    That would have been a lot easier to be able to distinguish them from each other. Plus, it lines up with the trophy types and keeps in line with the Playstation console theme

    vasametropolis, do games w PlayStation Blog: New Look for PS5 console this holiday season

    The design is still horrendous. I was hoping for a total do over.

    AdellcomdoisL, do gaming w PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for October: Gotham Knights, Disco Elysium: The Final Cut, The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes

    Elite: Dangerous is an interesting pick, considering the devs have abandoned console development.

    OfficialThunderbolt,

    Last month, one of the PS Plus Essential games of the month was by a developer that went out of business a few days before the game went live.

    AdellcomdoisL,

    Its sorta comparable, but Saint’s Row was a finished single player game that could maybe be updated one day otherwise, while E:D is a game that will be lacking several months (years?) of content, being an online game that is in constant development

    Usernamealreadyinuse, do games w PlayStation Blog: New Look for PS5 console this holiday season

    So only a different form but no upgrades?

    NOT_RICK,
    @NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

    None in terms of extra power, but from what I read there was a die shrink so the console should use less electricity and run cooler.

    freebread,

    The SSD also goes from 825GB to 1TB

    NOT_RICK,
    @NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

    I forgot they weren’t 1TB from the gate. That was an odd choice

    the_el_man,

    The odd choice was not enabling the m.2 from launch. I’m not sure building to a price is odd given VERY few gen 4 drives were around at the time and the memory prices were INSANE at that time.

    Kind of amazing they have gone from circa £140 to £35 for 1tb in less than 3 years.

    Lots of horror! Nice.

    Sweet, Alien: Isolation is on there. I loved that game but couldn’t finish it because of the crippling amount of anxiety it caused me trying to play it. Might try to beat it this time around.
