Does Sony Overestimate How "Big" The Horizon Franchise Is?

[ChatGPT-5]

It’s been said before but it’s an “industry plant” game. Sony is pumping money into and trying to force it but its “popularity” doesn’t come off as authentic as a Last of Us.

except they are the creators of Killzone which had been around for years. marketing was only increased after the E3 praise and people hit the

I wouldn't call it a plant. I would say, Guerilla showed a new concept, folks were feeling it, Sony saw the response, and decided to market harder.

Last of Us is way too dark (storyline wise ) to go full blown mainstream like that.

It’s like modern day assassins creed except with like a different skin

Like if you told me Ubisoft made this game I would believe you

No it ain’t.

Ghost of Tsushima is AC in a different skin

So a 3 yr old game selling for $20 is bad business now. I know y'all mad that your whole catalog is about to be on PlayStation but your math ain't adding up. But you also thought Gamepass was going to be a financial success so we might need to get you a calculator lol

He's just arguing just to argue. His point makes no sense. So because a game is $20 3 yrs after it releases it's a flop that means most games are flops lol

If you actually comb through the game thoroughly, you'll see how deep the game truly is.

back in the day, I plat'd both Horizons. Got caught up in the world for quite some time. Enjoyed the side quests, hunting, trials, all of it. even having to look for parts to upgrade weapons were fun, even wifey enjoyed playing it when I fell asleep. If I needed some flowers or feathers, bones or whatever, she would sneak around and look for it (she's afraid of combat lol). I'd wake up to a full stock and weapons available for the oncoming mission

There's also many different types of ways to play Aloy, there's the slasher, stealth, negotiator, machine overrider, trap baiter, arrow specialist. matters on your style. its a very fun game. part 2, the story was eh, Zenith? really? eh. but being able to fly, glide and dive, all in one sequence, was amazing. Peak mountain, flying around, then boom, you're deep sea, then fly out the sea and fly over a desert.

I truly hope you retards never have kids. It’s embarrassing to be this stupid. Holy fukking shyt, if Gina has 2 apples and Tina takes 1 apple how many apples does Gina have now stupid mafukkas

Sony stans are a special kind of stupid. Listen you fukking morons

Yall keep bringing up shyt irrelevant to the conversation like a stupid bytch does (gta 5 or that its old)

I said its a flop. I pointed out how its a flop. Yall used incorrect math. I corrected that math. Now yall bringing up gta 5 or that horizon is old. Which neither have to do with the point we are discussing.

No wonder you are sony stans. Youre too stupid to be anything else.

35 million units total. 300 million budget combined

do the math ( $60-20 doesnt matter). how is it a flop again? and why is there a third in production. you don't have kids, there's a reason why. and youre one of the older members. AFAIK

again. I'm more PC, not Sony.....I have multiple platforms. I dont subscribe to the xbox vs ps vs pc wars. I just keep it a buck. If Halo shines, Ill jump in and say "yes it did"

Youre the retard that did the math only on full price (8.4 million x $60) when majority of the sales were free (bundles), discounted (holiday sales) or pc ($20) which would bring average cost down significantly

Im not sure how you aren’t understanding this

got the first game for free, never played it.

i got thru like the 1st hour and never picked it back up. Didn't grab my attention at all

 

[Gritsngravy]

No it ain’t.

Ghost of Tsushima is AC in a different skin

All essential similar games,

The question is what is horizon combat/gameplay compared to them games

Ghost was easily a play through type of game, assassins I will give them credit that the general worlds and the combat keeps you engaged for some hours like damn near half the game before it gets stale

Horizon, was the world interesting enough? Can i really force myself to play through mediocre gameplay? And for what, the story?

I’m sure it’s a demographic for that game but I just see 3 out of 5 game that’s being promoted like it’s a generational franchise

how much is each unit..even if you avg the discount price

 

[itsyoung!!]

8 million at $30 average would be a loss, at $40 would be slightly in the profit.

I played this game after binge playing Ghosts of Tsushima, Last of us 2, and Red Dead redemption 2 in that order.

shyt was mid in comparison and I stopped after the proving missions.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Good thing sony will probably have elden ring to make up for the struggling sales of horizon lego

so it flopped twice, and they are making a 3rd? got it.
