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.
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.
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 .
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.
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.
I've NEVER had HZD look as bad as it does in these comparison side-by-sides. Then again, I've never played it on a PS. For PC players, this is a pretty unnecessary remaster
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!
Yeah, HZD is special: that sense of wonder and discovery. Of beauty and coming danger. For me HFW only scratched that itch for 30 percent. The last main story mission was so underwhelming and disappointing for me...
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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..
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.
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 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 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.
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 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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Has anyone been able to find out if they’ve brought over the inventory system from forbidden west or if it’s still limited? Cant seem to find an answer.
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
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.
This is my first time to play HZD so I feel fortunate I could play this, the remastered version, as my first. Very excited to spend hours in the game just marveling at the world and enjoying the hunting and mission aspects. Btw for the pick up animation, try the AUTO option. I think that’s the one you would want if you just want to collect the items without pressing anything. Cheers!
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 😮
@@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.
It actually does have an auto pickup option. The number of these videos that mention that specifically I suppose didn’t see it but I played through the whole game without ever really needing to pick up items
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.
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.
question: how can i pop the certain trophies requiring you get level this or that or get the shield weaver outfit, if i use a previous save (not ng+) save? i read there is no trophy auto-pop hor hzd remastered i have a previous save file and wanna try out ng+, but i'm worried i can't pop the level requirement trophies or shield weaver trophy since i already have it and would have to start a new game all over again
Thanks for this video ! I have one question though : If we buy the upgrade will we still be able to switch to the original game ? I mean is there a button in the option that allows us to choose wich version we want to play with ? Or if we buy this upgrade there is no way back to the original ? :)
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.
8:47 I've moved on to only playing Zero Dawn on a PC. The Remaster is supposed to be like Forbidden West. If the FOV only goes as wide as Forbidden West I will pass on the Remaster. If the FOV goes as wide as the original PC version I will get the Remaster.
Is anyone else having an issue with the import? I have game progess from the complete edition but when I download my ps4 saves from the cloud with my level 50 new game plus character it just says ps4 data not found
How is the aim assist for targeting monster parts? I found targeting horns/antlers/etc. much easier and more satisfying in HFW, especially going back to ZD afterwards.
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!
On that pickup animation thing. Wasn't it possible in the og version to pick up flowers and stuff while running and not stopping already? I remember being able to do that. If you were not full sprinting you would stop to pick up stuff, but as long as you're sprinting you could mash the pickup button as you run by and it would just quick pick up
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.
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.
@@Crashed131963 It will play better. Let alone because of things like PSSR. It will 120 FPS i assume. But the 60 FPS Mode on the base PS5 ist allready so beautifull and it runs so smoothly. I dont really care much about the Pro Version.
Yes. Many Ps4 disc like witcher 3 and HZD had the free 4k/60fps patch for Ps5. You still needed the disc inserted to get the fee patch. Same with this not free patch .
Brought the complete edition 2 days ago on the ps4. Installed it onto the ps5 started playing and now the remastered version is out shouldn't I be able to upgrade that for $10 dollars? Or am I missing something? The game is at full price. $75 dollars as I'm in Australia hmmm can anyone help please
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?
Can I ask what makes a remaster unneeded ? Isn’t that up to the buyer? It’s been like 7 years since the the other and this remaster was done by a different team so it’s not affecting the main team . I preorder this so I can’t wait to revisit after 7 years
Considering my PC cannot run ZD in Meridian correctly I wonder if they did enhance the pack or if it will be a mess. And I doubt there will be a demo, so I have two options now, buy the DLC later and hope it works, if not issue a refund and not get my money back *(Steam in my country only refunds money as wallet money), or wait a bit, and fetch the cracked version online, which I do not like the idea of, essentially because I like to own what is mine, or at least the license.
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!

Did they upgrade the sound at all?

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

For sure!
Same 👍

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.
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.
Aloy is beautiful, they actually fixed a ton of lighting issues with characters.
I've NEVER had HZD look as bad as it does in these comparison side-by-sides. Then again, I've never played it on a PS. For PC players, this is a pretty unnecessary remaster
It's unnecessary, but if you liked the original and not the sequel it's a nice upgrade to have for your collection.

You know this was the series that had me discovered your channel

Facts
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’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
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!
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!

Thanks for this video ! I have one question though : If we buy the upgrade will we still be able to switch to the original game ? I mean is there a button in the option that allows us to choose wich version we want to play with ? Or if we buy this upgrade there is no way back to the original ? :)
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.
Awesome breakdown. The changes to Meridian are extremely cool!
Did they add Gyro aiming?? PLEASE tell me they did! I cannot stand aiming w the stick now that I've gotten used to Gyro aiming.
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. 😂
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.
Excuse me does it come with all the DLC as the PS4 version?
8:47 I've moved on to only playing Zero Dawn on a PC. The Remaster is supposed to be like Forbidden West. If the FOV only goes as wide as Forbidden West I will pass on the Remaster. If the FOV goes as wide as the original PC version I will get the Remaster.
Just to clarify if I want the trophies, I can't import my PS4 new can't plus save? I have to play through it again brand new?
Playing this again in 2024 is just as thrilling as it was in 2017 when it first came out!
In Steam remastered version, can you continue your playthrough from original version?
Would the NG+ trophies pop if I did it on my old PS4 save??
Ps4 and Ps5 trophy's are separated
Is anyone else having an issue with the import? I have game progess from the complete edition but when I download my ps4 saves from the cloud with my level 50 new game plus character it just says ps4 data not found
How is the aim assist for targeting monster parts? I found targeting horns/antlers/etc. much easier and more satisfying in HFW, especially going back to ZD afterwards.
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!
On that pickup animation thing. Wasn't it possible in the og version to pick up flowers and stuff while running and not stopping already? I remember being able to do that. If you were not full sprinting you would stop to pick up stuff, but as long as you're sprinting you could mash the pickup button as you run by and it would just quick pick up
Nope. You must be thinking of Forbidden West.
any info if theres transmog for the outfits or if they'll add it
Not here sadly
How is the inventory system? Is that still like old?
Okay I made it! xD like the video and how you talk about the update
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.
If I already got platinum on PS4, do I have to get it once again in PS5 if I get this remaster even after importing my save files?
I was half hoing one or two of the HFW machines would make a supprise appearance here. But you know what, Im very happy with all the changed here!
What about the inventory? Is it the same or upgraded?
is there a stash for your inventory and can you tag machine parts with the focus like in forbidden west.
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.
Definitely buying the remaster and replaying the whole game on PS5 Pro
I’m trying to wait until I pick up my pro but it releases tomorrow! I might have to just play it lol
The game plays on the base PS5 at 4k/60fps .
The game has no Ray Tracing so it will not play any better on a Ps5 Pro .
@@Crashed131963 It will play better. Let alone because of things like PSSR. It will 120 FPS i assume. But the 60 FPS Mode on the base PS5 ist allready so beautifull and it runs so smoothly. I dont really care much about the Pro Version.
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
Do you still need the original ps4 disc after you have the remastered downloaded?
Yes.
Many Ps4 disc like witcher 3 and HZD had the free 4k/60fps patch for Ps5.
You still needed the disc inserted to get the fee patch.
Same with this not free patch .
Brought the complete edition 2 days ago on the ps4. Installed it onto the ps5 started playing and now the remastered version is out shouldn't I be able to upgrade that for $10 dollars? Or am I missing something? The game is at full price. $75 dollars as I'm in Australia hmmm can anyone help please
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?
Frozen wild better be included in this upgrade ?
Can you switch armor and armor look separately?
Can I ask what makes a remaster unneeded ? Isn’t that up to the buyer? It’s been like 7 years since the the other and this remaster was done by a different team so it’s not affecting the main team . I preorder this so I can’t wait to revisit after 7 years
Great review 👏 👌
Considering my PC cannot run ZD in Meridian correctly I wonder if they did enhance the pack or if it will be a mess.
And I doubt there will be a demo, so I have two options now, buy the DLC later and hope it works, if not issue a refund and not get my money back *(Steam in my country only refunds money as wallet money), or wait a bit, and fetch the cracked version online, which I do not like the idea of, essentially because I like to own what is mine, or at least the license.
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!
