Like the video & subscribe to participate in the LEGO Horizon giveaway: bit.ly/3Uos0iH Thanks Sony for the early code for the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster BTW!
I cant wait to play - from scratch, I did miss one cauldron first time around as they were pretty challenging but I'd love to get a platinum with this version.
Thanks for not focusing on the difference between tiny blades of grass, but rather on some new aspects that others didn't cover in their video. I learned a lot from yours. Great review!
That's how I ended up here to begin with, the first 2 reviews I watched focused on the graphics and textures almost exclusively like it was the most important.
The combat is so much more complex in HFW, especially if you focused on melee, that when I returned to HZD a few months ago I just obliterated everything in sight. I had to impose artificial limits on myself on UH difficulty just to give myself a challenge. It's unbelievable how much easier Thunderjaws are in HZD once you've mastered them in HFW. Watchers are still a PITA though.
I just did the same it was fun. Tip- set game to "story" mode, dash to "Frozen Wilds " get their General bow and dash back to starting point of game and begin game with a much nicer bow .
Since it’s $10 I’m gonna get it. Even if I don’t touch it I like the idea of the numbers being there for cheap upgrades instead of the $60 “it’s a new game” prices
@nickshaffer7659 I believe that if you have the disc version then that has to be in with everything loaded as well as waiting until tomorrow for the option to appear.
We get a full and complete remaster for a $10 upgrade for what was initially a PS exclusive in the same week that we get a completely barebones RDR1 for full price without a single remaster/upgrade beyond view distance. It's appalling to see how poorly Rockstar handled the RDR1 port when we can see how much of a huge jump in graphics and improvements can be made by a dev company that actually cares to see their game improve.
And yet it seemed every other comment on Reddit regarding the remaster was some variation of ‘It wasn’t needed! Why didn’t they remake or remaster ???’ Or ‘All they did was slap some new graphics on it and charge us money!’ It was infuriating.
I discovered your channel because of HZD, what a treat to get a brand new video for it 6 years later! I fully intend to replay the game with this Remaster! There's something so special about HZD, I'll look for any excuse to replay it!
Me too. Zero Dawn was the game that really made his channel break through that barrier of low end, to top tier. Even if you look at his views from before Zero Dawn came out and then after, it’s clear
maybe I'm the only one who's that fussy but I don't like the fact that aloys hair in the Remastered is as long as it is in hfw. I always liked the theory that it grows over the time when she searched for a GAIA backup. Because she had no time to cut it.
HZD is my favorite game/universe of all time, so you bet I have this pre-ordered and will play at midnight when it drops. Thanks for all your great videos, Jordan.
I have already bought the game & am playing it already too. I’m loving it! It’s one of my favourite series when it comes to games. I cannot wait for Horizon 3! New follower here because I seen your video pop up & had to watch. Thank you for showing these aspects they changed for the remaster. Such a great review! An Aussie here that loves watching videos like these. Keep up the good work. See you in another video, I’m sure.
I did too my very first time playing the game. When the developers finally unlocked the frame rate for the PlayStation 5 that's when I gave it another shot. That made all the difference in the world to me at the time. Playing a game like this at 30 frames per second is just torture.
I hadn't played it in several years so I started fresh (but with New Game+). It looks amazing, but there are some bugs they probably need to sort out. Some characters that interact with Aloy can be glitchy and some seem to show a lower framerate within the high framerate (it looks as weird as it sounds). Also they clearly improved mouth movements but they seem a bit forced and unnatural during conversations with characters in the game.
I was planning on replaying this masterpiece so this "remastered" version came just in time. Cool video. Thanks for all the details. I'll definitely get it.
I got a late start on Zero Dawn and dropped it about 1/3rd of the way through when Forbidden West came out. Probably at 150ish hours on it today. Definitely want to go back and revisit the rest of the first game and Frozen Wilds
In Australia the upgrade price is $15, not letting that put me off as I have played through the game a couple of times and thoroughly enjoy it. It is one of those rare games that allows noobs and experts to enjoy the same game due to it having good difficulty settings. Definitely going to get this upgrade. Thanks for the review..
Yes I got it since it was only a $10 upgrade for me. One big change I noticed that I'm surprised you didn't mention is the grass deforms just like it did in forbidden W. When she walks on foliage or short grass you can literally see the grass getting deformed and a trial left behind from where you've been walking. Especially if you crouch walk.
I just bought the physical version of the remaster wnd OMG it looks insane. I would have paid $70 for this game because its so well done I cannot believe it 😮
I'm using the remaster to do my Ultra Hard play-through... from scratch! No imports, no running through on easier difficulty first. It's a blast and so beautiful. At first I was like, eh graphics quality hasn't changed that much. So I booted up the original HZD... oh my gosh. It's night and day. I took some side by side pics for comparison. Really is amazing how much extra colour and detail the remaster has.
That’s a very thorough review on the improvements, great video! Question: how is handled the transition from base game’s final mission to Frozen Wilds? Does it still feel a bit disjointed or there’s a proper breadcrumb into it?
The customizable difficulty seals the deal for me. I always wanted to play on the hardest difficulty but I didn't like the increase in merchant prices. That just made it more grindy.
Picked up the Remaster today and then played for 3 hours. Only finished FW a few months back(I'm slow at games) so it was nice to jump back to a simpler version of this world. Plus I can spam tripwires like the unhinged savage I am.
Other settlements are more populated, too. Mother's cradle and mother's heart feel more lively and I'm pretty sure mothers crown has a few more npcs as well
I do that load times and improved facial features and that Feature to turn off the animation for picking up items. This is one of my favorite stores so $10 was a no brainer
Just got it. I never actually finish the ps4 version so this is a great chance to go through the whole thing at current gen levels and at £10 you cant complain.
Currently blitzing through the remaster with custom difficulty settings. As you said Jor, for the price of the upgrade, it is definitely worth it. I am biased as I love Horizon and will play any of the titles because I want to support the studio as much as possible.
I was apprehensive about a remaster. But, considering it's only $10, and the most important part, I can transfer my save so I can still start with all my gear, it's suddenly worth it
Definitely going to pick the up the upgrade. I haven't finished either HZD or HFW yet (been distracted with other games) but one of the major reasons I didn't get furter in HZD was the little things with graphics. Since it's only 10 bucks, it's an easy buy for me. Maybe that'll give me the motivation to pick it up again and finally finish it. I didn't purchase PS5 for this remaster or HFW but I have both on PS5, so... Definitely gonna buy the remaster and try to finish both games. I like the mechanics in HFW more but I love the story of HZD more.
Well it should be said that while the changes over the initial PS version are definitely visible it is not that much of an upgrade for owners of the PC version. Most of the enhancements in the remaster were already present on the PC version release of the complete edition. So the changes feel way more marginal there. Then again you can get it for just 10 bucks if you own the original on PC - which seems fair.
I'm surprised that STILL no one is talking about some of the story level tweaks they made. It's definitely not quite as gritty in some places. For example, the first ruins you go into as a child, they remapped some of the bodies that you find, and definitely lessens some of the shock you feel of "WTF happened to this old world?" at the beginning of the game.
@@Pulverizer2000 I'll answer you. I'm a PC player. I've never and will never own a Play Station or any other console. Sony doesn't need my info. There is no reason for PC players to have a PSN account. I have no idea why Sony is pulling this nonsense but I'm personally not participating.
@@fatherjimbo nice of you to add 'personally' in the end instead of making yourself look like sj warrior that screams for every fellow soul. Im personally a console and pc guy but prefer Consoles, hunting trophies and achievements for me is immense Fun.
@@Carlile123456 That's the main issue I have with the account linking. If Playstation accounts were available in all regions, it really would be no different than Ubisoft and Rockstar requiring accounts to play their games on PC. I'm not a fan of needing those accounts, but having that stipulation doesn't prevent millions of consumers from being able to play the game in those cases. I'll probably upgrade for the simple fact that I haven't finished the game yet, and I already have a Playstation 5, so I don't need to make a new account to play the game on PC. It looks like a substantial enough upgrade that it will be worth $10 for me, personally, to experience a better version to finish my playthrough.
The only accessibility setting missing that I would want is keeping the camera left-aligned. I set this way in Forbidden West and it's hard to go back to the dynamic shifting one. Hopefully an update will rectify this, admittedly small, issue I have.
Had a noodle around with it this afternoon. Looks gorgeous. Probably my favourite game (certainly of the modern era) and I got it for free originally so I don't begrudge a tenner on it!
I am a Huge Horizon zero Dawn fan . Whether it needed a remaster are not I will still play this amazing game. I have played this game 5 times since its release and I'm gonna play it again so im definitely looking forward to it!
The remaster looks great, and I love the zero dawn franchise, but I'll wait on picking it up. I'm playing Stellar Blade right now and want to finish that first.
This is what I call a remaster 100% . They took the formula and gave quality of life improvements. Plus, they upgraded everything without destroying the identity of zero dawn. They didn't need to add everything from forbidden west, just some additions. Overall since I haven't played in a this game a long while feels awesome just to revisit.
One of the things I wish they would change is Aloys volume when she whistles for a mount. I wear headphones and her whistle is so freaking loud that I have to take them off when she does it.
This is the perfect opportunity to get back into this game especially with it only being 10 bucks when you own the original. Plus it looks so good like a full remake instead just a remaster, idk why so many people are hating on it
I actually snagged the remaster of this and gave my copy of the original complete edition to my friend. It's a great game no matter which version you have. Easily Guerrilla Games best franchise.
The lighting in Meridea is also updated. You have time of day lighting and shadows. Also, you are way better at the game than the guys who played it at Digital Foundry. They kept missing easy shots on watchers. I am impatiently waiting for the game to get the $10 upgrade for my PS4 version. My brother will have to be annoyed with me playing it again
One of the greatest games ever created. Forbidden west as well. Truly masterpieces. Definitely playing the game again. Can’t wait to beat it for the third time.
Horizon series is pretty good, the game and characters the villains and the story are superb mile better than some new releases game nowadays. I would pay 10$ for this nice upgrade I want to support the studio.
Already pre-paid. Counting the hours. Watched Kirsty start a new play through on her live stream today. Oh....I'll spend a lot more than 10 or so hours running about looking at the pretty sites...I'm READY to return to Horizon's roots! Bring it on.
For playstation users... if you like the Game this is a must have. 10 Bucks is literally nothing for how good they improved an allready brilliant game. It can almost keep up with forbidden West in terms of looks but it runs even better. They once again produced a banger. When they revealed that the remaster is coming, i thought we wouldnt need it. It would just be some upsccaled 4k textures or so. But what they really gave us, is something i definitely needed.
For ten bucks, I think its worth it. Bought it on the PS and PC/Steam platforms, though I'll play it on the PS5 first. Curious to see what it looks like on the PS5 Pro next month too.
I am definitely getting this and I'm going to 100% the trophies again I love this game and I'm also a trophy addict so earning all trophies again is a plus for me I 100% the ps4 game and 100% the forbidden west ps5 version
Im curious how it will run on steamdeck. Im lucky I got it the complete edition before the price increase and enjoyed playing it on the deck, but Im going to wait to buy the remaster until I see how it performs.
I'm finding these ultra short load times to be a little jarring sometimes. Like in Spiderman 2 when you fast travel and you are basically teleporting? I feel like there should be a short forced land screen to simulate the fact that it took time for the character to go from point A to point B.

Fingers crossed! Ty!
I really hope i will get the giveaway but probably not so i should not have my hopes up. Thanks anyway! You make great videos
Did they upgrade the sound at all?
Thanks for not focusing on the difference between tiny blades of grass, but rather on some new aspects that others didn't cover in their video. I learned a lot from yours. Great review!
That's how I ended up here to begin with, the first 2 reviews I watched focused on the graphics and textures almost exclusively like it was the most important.
It's been almost 2 years since I've played Zero Dawn, so it's going to be great to completely revisit the entire story again. I love this franchise.
For sure!
Same 👍
Yeah, I decided not to import my save to go through it from scratch. This game deserves it.
The combat is so much more complex in HFW, especially if you focused on melee, that when I returned to HZD a few months ago I just obliterated everything in sight. I had to impose artificial limits on myself on UH difficulty just to give myself a challenge. It's unbelievable how much easier Thunderjaws are in HZD once you've mastered them in HFW.

true
Sony's favorite type of customer. NGL though probably going to do the same
how do you get the 10$ upgrade version? i don't see the option...
@ for me it was separate from the main zero dawn in the psn store
@nickshaffer7659 I believe that if you have the disc version then that has to be in with everything loaded as well as waiting until tomorrow for the option to appear.
Aloy is beautiful, they actually fixed a ton of lighting issues with characters.

It was infuriating.
They did add Soft Shadows.. some improvements but yeah its barebone.
I mean you are comparing apples to oranges. No one needed this remaster. A few wanted it.
For only $10 and an actual working product that isn't buggy or an inferior version of the OG unlike recent remasters latrly? I'm sold.
I discovered your channel because of HZD, what a treat to get a brand new video for it 6 years later!
I fully intend to replay the game with this Remaster! There's something so special about HZD, I'll look for any excuse to replay it!
Really nostalgic seeing your name! Good days, cool to see you sticked around!
@@JorRaptor It's been a fun journey, watching your channel grow!
Me too actually. 👍🏼
6 years! Since when?!?!? TIME IS AN ILLUSION!!!
I’ll definitely import my saves. But, I think I’ll run it with a fresh play through. Excited nonetheless🔥🔥🔥
That's what I done as well. It feels like it'd make a ng+ on forbidden west feel better. Weak aloy in zero dawn, upgraded in fw
You know this was the series that had me discovered your channel
Same here and then I ended up getting into Days Gone right after because of him.
Me too. Zero Dawn was the game that really made his channel break through that barrier of low end, to top tier. Even if you look at his views from before Zero Dawn came out and then after, it’s clear
Thanks for sticking around!
Facts
I wish Jor would look at us like how he looks at the horizon franchise
Hahaha what does this mean
Ayo chill lol
My honest reaction
@@JorRaptoryou don’t love us😭😭😭
Being weird
The living city was what I really wanted the most when I played it when the original game came out. I am glad they changed it.
Yeah it's pretty great!
@@JorRaptorI loved the Priest’s Morning, Afternoon, & Evening chanting of Sun King names. Any improvements to their animation?
I thought I was the only one to miss the Tramplers.. My absolute favorite machine to hunt in that game.
HZD was how I found your channel, so this feels like things coming full circle!
maybe I'm the only one who's that fussy but I don't like the fact that aloys hair in the Remastered is as long as it is in hfw. I always liked the theory that it grows over the time when she searched for a GAIA backup. Because she had no time to cut it.
Looks awesome! I am definitely upgrading and playing again :) Last time I played the game was on the PS4 four years ago. Thanks for the video :)
Playing horizon all those years ago when it came out was the reason i found your channel 😂
Ive played 150+ hours of Forbidden West, but for some reason never played Zero Dawn, so im super keen to jump into it with the new remaster
You’re going to love it!!!
Dafaq?
@@MeggaMann_theBlueLion whats up?
Playing HFW before HZD is a big mistake.
People playing HFW should already know how the world got to be as it is .
@@Crashed131963 ah well, itll be fun anyways
HZD is my favorite game/universe of all time, so you bet I have this pre-ordered and will play at midnight when it drops. Thanks for all your great videos, Jordan.
Pre order? When does the $10 patch come to PS store?
It's not there now?
I have already bought the game & am playing it already too. I’m loving it! It’s one of my favourite series when it comes to games. I cannot wait for Horizon 3!

Even playing it for the first time years ago, I thought the cutscenes and dialogue animation were a bit rough.
Very happy to see that get updated!
Good review! Thanks for taking the time.
The settings alone make this game better.
100%
I got into an argument with someone over accessibility options on Twitter because “only disabled people care about them” according to this moron
Dropped the OG after 6 hours, but I'll give another try with the remaster
I highly recommend, the story REALLY picks up not too far in and it get incredible
Yeah ngl happened to me twice, but once you lock in the game gets more fun
I did too my very first time playing the game. When the developers finally unlocked the frame rate for the PlayStation 5 that's when I gave it another shot. That made all the difference in the world to me at the time. Playing a game like this at 30 frames per second is just torture.
@@JJsiN84 hard agree, I’ve always been a bit picky w/ frames, but this game is a 60fps MUST
I hadn't played it in several years so I started fresh (but with New Game+). It looks amazing, but there are some bugs they probably need to sort out. Some characters that interact with Aloy can be glitchy and some seem to show a lower framerate within the high framerate (it looks as weird as it sounds). Also they clearly improved mouth movements but they seem a bit forced and unnatural during conversations with characters in the game.
Absolutely! I can’t wait! This looks amazing 🤩
The series and it's DLC's, are definitely worth playing all over again.
I was planning on replaying this masterpiece so this "remastered" version came just in time. Cool video. Thanks for all the details. I'll definitely get it.
I never played zero dawn so I can’t wait for this
Wow jealous, best way to experience it for sure!
@ exactly this is going to be amazing
It’s a great game. I hope you fall in love with it, too.
Get the game in a bargain bin for $10 then by the $10 upgrade .
I see used HZD for cheap all the time. Pawnshops' or eBay or GameStop bins.
I got a late start on Zero Dawn and dropped it about 1/3rd of the way through when Forbidden West came out. Probably at 150ish hours on it today. Definitely want to go back and revisit the rest of the first game and Frozen Wilds
In Australia the upgrade price is $15, not letting that put me off as I have played through the game a couple of times and thoroughly enjoy it.

When she walks on foliage or short grass you can literally see the grass getting deformed and a trial left behind from where you've been walking. Especially if you crouch walk.
Awesome breakdown. The changes to Meridian are extremely cool!
I just bought the physical version of the remaster wnd OMG it looks insane. I would have paid $70 for this game because its so well done I cannot believe it 😮
Ppl went crazy when they announced the remaster but after seeing how much they improved the gm its worth alot more than $10 bucks

Question: how is handled the transition from base game’s final mission to Frozen Wilds? Does it still feel a bit disjointed or there’s a proper breadcrumb into it?
Frozen wild better be included in this upgrade ?
The customizable difficulty seals the deal for me. I always wanted to play on the hardest difficulty but I didn't like the increase in merchant prices. That just made it more grindy.
I’m planning plan from start to finish with this remaster, it’s been a while since I played 🎮
Picked up the Remaster today and then played for 3 hours. Only finished FW a few months back(I'm slow at games) so it was nice to jump back to a simpler version of this world.

Other settlements are more populated, too. Mother's cradle and mother's heart feel more lively and I'm pretty sure mothers crown has a few more npcs as well
Going to play zero dawn with a glass cannon Aloy soon
Are the prerendered cutscenes still prerendered or real time now? I saw that they were re-rendered, but I couldn't tell if they're still prerendered
I love that you could remap the mount button from triangle to square so its more like Forbidden West and you wont accidentally dismount while looting.
I hope we can permanently collect the audio, logs, holovids and such like we could in forbidden west
I do that load times and improved facial features and that Feature to turn off the animation for picking up items. This is one of my favorite stores so $10 was a no brainer
Okay I made it! xD like the video and how you talk about the update
Great review 👏 👌
I'm planing to play the full game on a new save so this is exactly what i hoped for
I'm gonna platinum it ALL over again. On ultra hard
Never played Horizon but gonna check this one out. Cheers Jor.👍
Almost 1 million subs!
Just got it. I never actually finish the ps4 version so this is a great chance to go through the whole thing at current gen levels and at £10 you cant complain.
Meridian feels much more impressive than any of the locations in Forbidden West imo
Playing this again in 2024 is just as thrilling as it was in 2017 when it first came out!
Currently blitzing through the remaster with custom difficulty settings. As you said Jor, for the price of the upgrade, it is definitely worth it. I am biased as I love Horizon and will play any of the titles because I want to support the studio as much as possible.

I am just playing the whole thing again from zero. Going for the platinum again! This would be my 4th playthrough... Looove this sh!t
picked up the $15 upgrade today be exciting to play a new game plus to see the changes.

I am a Huge Horizon zero Dawn fan . Whether it needed a remaster are not I will still play this amazing game. I have played this game 5 times since its release and I'm gonna play it again so im definitely looking forward to it!
The best part of this is now there are updated face files that could be better ported to *ahem* “enhance” Aloy in the sequel on PC. 😂
I miss your coverage of Borderlands. Those were fun times! 🤠💕
The remaster looks great, and I love the zero dawn franchise, but I'll wait on picking it up. I'm playing Stellar Blade right now and want to finish that first.
Almost wish I could grab my PS4 saves to use with the Steam version, but with a remaster like this starting over feels like the better value.
I like it but they should add more to the game. How about changing armor look or "transmog" like part 2 has. Item sorting would be nice too.
This is what I call a remaster 100% . They took the formula and gave quality of life improvements. Plus, they upgraded everything without destroying the identity of zero dawn.

I'll happily play this game all over again before I play DA. Can't wait!
Alo's body looks slightly masculine in the remake. I prefer the evidently feminine original design. Aloy absolutely did not need an improvement.
Really. She still has that mid drift that makes me weak in the knees. She looks just as feminine as before.
I have this game on Steam but haven played it yet; now seems like a good time to jump in.😊
I picked up the original cheap on pc then got the upgrade. Blessed
Definitely worth the 10 dollar upgrade. Wish they could have added the stash feature from FW
I actually snagged the remaster of this and gave my copy of the original complete edition to my friend. It's a great game no matter which version you have. Easily Guerrilla Games best franchise.
Kind of a bummer that the trophies won't pop up if you upload your PS4 data but at the same time, I dont mind going for the Platinum again
I bought it and never played it so I’ll be getting this, been holding off playing until it was remastered
Damn perfect time to do that
Same here haha also bought Forbidden West now so i can Play both in highest Fidelity
The lighting in Meridea is also updated. You have time of day lighting and shadows. Also, you are way better at the game than the guys who played it at Digital Foundry. They kept missing easy shots on watchers. I am impatiently waiting for the game to get the $10 upgrade for my PS4 version. My brother will have to be annoyed with me playing it again
One of the greatest games ever created. Forbidden west as well. Truly masterpieces. Definitely playing the game again. Can’t wait to beat it for the third time.
thanks a million did not even know about the new settings and yes they are great slow time plus auto pick up.
Auto pickup was always there .
why is no one talking about those who owned the game (purchased) and then lost it when it was de-listed because of the psn requirement
I will get it for sure. Can’t wait for 3!
Hey Jor, do we get those original pre-order outfits from the original Zero-Dawn??
Horizon series is pretty good, the game and characters the villains and the story are superb mile better than some new releases game nowadays. I would pay 10$ for this nice upgrade I want to support the studio.
I played the original and I’m almost done with the remaster. It was absolutely worth the $10!
Already pre-paid. Counting the hours. Watched Kirsty start a new play through on her live stream today. Oh....I'll spend a lot more than 10 or so hours running about looking at the pretty sites...I'm READY to return to Horizon's roots! Bring it on.
For playstation users... if you like the Game this is a must have. 10 Bucks is literally nothing for how good they improved an allready brilliant game. It can almost keep up with forbidden West in terms of looks but it runs even better. They once again produced a banger. When they revealed that the remaster is coming, i thought we wouldnt need it. It would just be some upsccaled 4k textures or so. But what they really gave us, is something i definitely needed.
For ten bucks, I think its worth it. Bought it on the PS and PC/Steam platforms, though I'll play it on the PS5 first. Curious to see what it looks like on the PS5 Pro next month too.
I am definitely getting this and I'm going to 100% the trophies again I love this game and I'm also a trophy addict so earning all trophies again is a plus for me I 100% the ps4 game and 100% the forbidden west ps5 version
Im curious how it will run on steamdeck. Im lucky I got it the complete edition before the price increase and enjoyed playing it on the deck, but Im going to wait to buy the remaster until I see how it performs.
I'm finding these ultra short load times to be a little jarring sometimes. Like in Spiderman 2 when you fast travel and you are basically teleporting? I feel like there should be a short forced land screen to simulate the fact that it took time for the character to go from point A to point B.
I'm glad I don't have my PS4 dave data. I plan on going into this completely fresh. New gameplay & new trophies
