That’s a shame… and also probably for the best.
I can’t imagine they’d put the money behind it. It would either need to be game of thrones money, or you’d just see robots in the pilot and finale.
“Run Aloy! I see the shadow of a T-rex on the horizon, if we hurry it will be 6 episode before it catches up!”
The games are well written and any adaptation would by default be lesser.
Ha. They have some of the most hackneyed dialogue of any Sony AAA game by a sizable margin. Well written they are not.
Would have involved massive amounts of CGI for a story and plot that could have been done in any number of other ways. Loved the game, but probably not a fan of anything live action.
Horizon is like Sony’s test franchise. First Sony franchise on a Nintendo system (lego), the game they bundled with PS5s, the only first party game on VR2 right now (and bundled with that as well), one of the first games on PC, one of the biggest AAA titles to be thrown into the subscription service, and now it apparently had a TV series that just got canned…
Funny thing is that I doubt it actually has the kind of draw that Sony just assumes it does. They’re great games, but I’m not going to pay into new hardware or services just to get more of it.
Isn’t one of the new CEOs from Guerrilla Games?
I haven’t played hfw yet but zd was essentially the same story as the surge, and I’ve seen the same plot in movies and books in the past too. Post apocalypse where the big bad is long dead and the people are just suffering the lasting consequences of the actions of the dead. Hella plot twist if it hadn’t been done so many times. I’ll still play hfw if it can ever get past the unskippable intro cutscene without crashing and needing to start over every time. Its the only game I have encountered that will crash to power off on steam deck with default confkguration.
Sony couldn’t get Nicocado for the acting roll it seems.
