I think he's probably half right. I get the sense that some poeple on here think we are going to be getting AVATAR level graphics, and Hal from 2001 level ai, when cross gen gets dropped.
I'll be surprised if game design changes much at all.
Agreed.
Early gen games all don't do Ratchet Rift Apart type shit, that is very Insomniac, but generally they go with "safe" upgrades with features. Only mid to late gen do you get crazy features and design, because of that....I feel GG might be truthful with this as most of us all had the same idea of what a sequel might be.
You can go underwater, you get a bigger world, some different features. Gliding is nice, but I think in the 3rd game you'll get flying and it would make sense.
From Horizon 1, to Horizon 2 underwater, Horizon 3 in the sky, Horizon 4 in space lol So I think people need to understand, they just got the hardware.... when they did Horizon 1, they've been working on it since 2011, part of the team worked on Killzone SF so they learned a lot about the hardware, so from 2012 or so to 2017 is still a great deal of time for them to do some advance stuff.
How anyone was expecting Aloy to be in space with so little time with PS5 is beyond me.
It would be like fucking expecting HZD level shit in Killzone SF completely ignoring its a launch game.
