The fact that Aloy needs to catch her breath after running is such a great addition to the game. People overlook it, but, most games, you run around and just act normal. Aloy sounds out of breath, even though she can run for miles
Also she behaves differently, depending on the weather conditions - covering her face from the wind, catching snowflakes or wiping sweat from her brow. All these small details really add to the atmosphere of the game, making the protagonist alive.
Also if you shoot in the water arrows are floating afterwards. Animals leave trails behind. People are working with the wood at the start of FW, almost the whole process is there. What i like about Horizon's world is that it actually tries to be alive by making sure NPCs are doing something other than just standing or walking mindlessly.
It's not like that details will impact the entire. I prefer that they spent their time and ressources on éléments that could be useful than "little details" that not everyone will notice...

Nixxes absolutely accomplished their goal of raising Zero Dawn to Forbidden West's visual standard (And Guerilla for providing guidance on what the goals were for each area/scene/etc). That must've been some painstaking work because the temptation to inject your own twist or go overboard is always there.
Aloy has aged a bit and matured in FW. So in the third game she’ll most likely look a bit more aged. It’s not possible for them to bring her younger model into the third game as it wouldn’t make sense.
@@ChrisCallovar yeah that's not true, exactly 6 months have gone by from the very end of zero dawn to the very beginning of forbidden west, she aged way too much in 6 months.

is that so? 😂😂😂In my opinion, it is not the so-called "old", but based on certain correct issues, Aloy's face must not be too beautiful, otherwise there may be some trouble.
I do believe HZD Remastered "mostly" approaches (and maybe in a few cases eclipses) the standard of Forbidden West. You had some nice comparisons...but a few might have been improved if you had set the lighting and environmental conditions to be the same for each (i.e., if HZD RM was shot in a desert setting in the Sundom, use the desert area around Vegas in FW...I don't recall what was used, but it wasn't the same biome). Lighting can play a HUGE role in the comparison. Sometimes it was the same or similar, a few cases were not so it was hard to judge which example was superior. Sorry...don't mean to nit pick...just some suggestions. I think they did a great job with the Remaster. Oh...Aloy CAN go underwater in HZD...she will just run out of oxygen if she stays too long (similar to how she begins in Forbidden West). She can later "stay" underwater in Forbidden West because she has the breathing mask which is key to parts of the story progression in Forbidden West. Flying was introduced in Forbidden West...there is no comparison in HZD. Sorry....more nits. I'm about 35% through my first HZD Remaster play through...about to head into The Frozen Wilds...really looking forward to it...the original Frozen Wilds I have always felt was Guerrilla Games best work (Story in HZD still is the best though). Peace
It has a really nice vibe but from a graphical standpoint, not so much. What’s more important is the facial animation/motion captures have all been improved, (the 2017 HZD was criticized for the dated animation even on 2017’s standard) and now it’s on par with Forbidden West

1:05 they both are using the same model. look at the eyelashes, the texture and flow is the same. either they swapped the model and made changes to texture and made the face leaner to suit HZD or they only replaced the head. but i am assuming they replaced the model.
@@BriefKeef i have them both on a high end pc HFW is alot superior in graphics to HZD Remastered the people who are just claiming that its a remaster so it looks better are completely wrong first of all they are watching a comparison video on youtube and havent played it yet the remastered version that is second its on youtube the compressed videos do not look as good as playing it on monitor by yourself and then seeing the difference as you can see more details in a game.
overall the original looks better. They took off a lot of light contrast on the remastered, because of this we lose a lot of depth in the scenes. For me as a photographer the original one looks more cinematic than the remastered.
This remaster is amazing. we have softer shadows and better colors compare to what was before. and the best part is subsurface scattering and thanks to that we have better skin shading and more realistic plants.
@@Ajmarshall523 if you played the first game (complete edition), then you better buy the second sequel... because the remaster version gives a little improvement in graphics, while the second sequel is a completely new game with better graphics, a new world and of course a continuation of the story
HFW looks alot better compared to HZD Remaster as its a more superior game when it comes to graphics while HZD Remaster looks a little bit better overall compared to original HZD but there are some things that actually look alot better in HZD Remastered compared to original HZD and that is water , clouds and vegetation the rest are minor improvements.
Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered has comparatively better hair physics and character models. The lod, baked lighting, and foliage density look slightly superior as well. Other than that, they seem more or less the same.
All these comments are d*mb*ss remastered of this is backwards, there is less detail to what it may actually seems there is. Remastered does not necessarily mean better
i have played both games and i must say HFW has more weighty animations and better sound effects. i thought that this couldnt get any better untill i played FW. the animations in FW and sound effects are extremely grounded. i can feel every step aloy is taking and the animations also give aloy some weight. FW makes aloy a bit sluggish which is realistic. coz you cannot do more than 3 consequetive rolls before aloy loses her balance. and the foliage of FW is just gorgeous
FW most definitely still looks better, but I will say that Aloy's face looks prettier in the Remaster. No more puffy Chipmunk face! Guess she was eating better in FW 😅
