MULTI [OT] Horizon Zero Dawn | More than 10 million copies sold lifetime

[Chandoo]

People bought enhanced consoles for 4K support, not performance modes. This is why DF also whole heartedly recommends One X version of RDR2 as the definitive console version and not the Pro version in its "performance" mode.

Generally performance modes target higher frames not 30fps. This means even the Pro didn't have much head room to perform better.

that's all besides the point ..

the point is that the drops in "resolution" mode are so infrequent and so few and far in-between that it still ends up being the recommended version, the frame pacing and frame rate is solid 95~99% of the time with some odd dips here and there.

You know all this talk about HZD has really put me in the mood to play the game again, it has been over a year since I revisited and I don't think I've played the Frozen Wilds DLC again since beating it after it first came out.

Now the question is whether to do now, or wait for the PS5 release/patch

Look at all these people enticed to buy it again on PC

Now that's brand and franchise loyalty

Too bad about the port though.

If any portion of that 35% also played Bloodborne on PS4, they‘d be extremely satisfied with the port.

So you're saying 65% of the buyers hadn't played it before and may consider getting a PS5 to continue Aloy's journey as "out oof touch" Sony intended? Fair point.

 

[Necrokiller]

So you're saying 65% of the buyers

Nope, because Aloy's journey can be refunded on Steam (and EGS). But we know a significant number of PS4 players were already enticed to double dip.

Does Sony have a way of showing how many PS5 players would buy their system as a result of HZD on Steam?

And it doesn't look like people are enjoying it as much as Sony would've thought

Hopefully this patch brings it to parity with the 3 year old console version

The issue with cracked games is you can't get patches anymore

Still the worst way to play the game

 

[Necrokiller]

Imagine locking a 4 years old game to 60fps

Good thing the game is silky smooth and never dips below 60fps on a 3070 with VRR

 

[CerebralTiger]

Should've said, "imagine bumping the thread for a 4 year old mediocre game" instead, but good for you that can you can run I guess

If you find it that mediocre why are you so proud of how it runs on PS5?

 

[CerebralTiger]

Not proud, just found it mildly amusing

The one game I wouldn't even touch even if it did, 120 @ 8K!
