Allright I'm stuck on what I'm pretty sure is the infamous water part in TLG. I feel like I did it half right because I got trico to smash part of the floor out but I can't get him to actually get me out of here. Help?

Not sure what part people had trouble with, but his tail should be hanging down through a hole in the floor somewhere, you have to push the crate over to it to reach it though.

Push the box to the corner where there's an opening, his tail should drop down if he's not too confused.


It bugged out for me on the first try.

Yeah it's feeling like a bug then because he made a hole for it but it didn't drop down.

I'm in the corner. Did you reload or did it bug out and eventually fix itself?

Edit: got it. Polygon walk through has a great solution for anyone else who gets stuck there.

I have no desire to play Horizon: Zero Dawn and don't understand the hype for it. It looks like another generic third person action adventure. I'm not sure mashing up genres (dinosaurs + science fiction) necessarily makes for a compelling setting.

It looks like MonHun but with robot dinosaurs. I don't know if that's going to be what it is but that's what it looks like and that concept sounds really really good. If you don't get that, well... :psyduck:

Of all the games to call the setting "not compelling" HZD is a weird one because it actually looks cool and original unlike most games.

One thing I am really hoping from that game is that you get to explore the ruins of civilization and that they aren't just background flavor.

HZD looks good, but I do agree that it gets crowded out by other things I'm exited about in this quarter...namely Nioh.



Props to Sony for starting to churn out the exclusives and new IPs tho. The PS4/XB1/Switch era is looking more and more like the PS1/Saturn/N64 era, with almost all the good poo poo on one console.

Japanese people want to play Monhun on portables, the console releases don't sell well. So the chances are bad.

Zero for the time being, MH's primary audience is still Japanese so it won't leave Nintendo handhelds until they stop selling the most.

Pretty slim at the moment since Sony basically let Nintendo have the IP.

its called god eater or tokiden kiwami or maybe horizon zero dawn?


serious answer: now that capcom can't churn out cheap 240p versions of the game with decade old assets on 3ds anymore (well after XX anyway), they're going to have to spend actual money developing their cashcow series so its possible that unless nintendo helps them with the cost, they could break exclusivity with nintendo to make more sales to pay for all the hd art they need to make.

the game will of course be total crap with no content though because of having to start from scratch and its modern capcom we're talking about.

That depends if Capcom makes a MH title for the Switch - they'll have no choice but to use HD assets for a Switch version which means it can probably get ported to PS4 pretty easily.

What MS means by that is that the numbers following the titles of their exclusive IPs are greater than previous entry in the series.

they want you to be as far in the corner as you can get because he is going to drop a chunk of ceiling and won't do it if you would get hit but you have no way of knowing this will happen so you stand under him yelling for a half hour and then go look it up online.

Don't look poo poo up online for TLG. Just take a break.

Beyond that his tail gets caught in the rafters, but swimming around the room will make him look around and it will fall through in a few seconds.

I didn't look anything up but it took me AGES to figure it out. I could see the tail clipping against the wall and then the narrator tells you you should be climbing the tail so I figured there was something going wrong.

You aren't the only one. I tend to overthink puzzles and tend to forget to use the game's rules or things it taught and instead try ragdolling or do something that is beyond the obvious solution.

i'm not asking for a spoiler i just want to know if i missed something i should go back and look for

is there any proof or reference to who clogged up the whole game with breakable wooden debris? it feels like deliberate sabotage of whats going on in the game and not just like ruins or whatever.

cause the thingy on the roof of the final boss is blocked up, putting a hold on the whole child snatching operation and there's no good reason for that as far as i could tell.

It's not really blocked, as evidenced by how one of the Trico use it anyway. Looks like something tried to build a nest there.

oh see i thought that since the tower reactivates after you clear the debris and how the statue's mouth is actually open afterwards but sealed beforehand, that the hole where the barrels eject from had gotten clogged and the trico's weren't able to feed the machine and that finishing the game involved fixing the problem that had ruined the valley and re-empowering the tower before destroying it

but i guess people are gonna get mad if we keep spoiler chat in the general thread so thanks.

Me neither but the overworld in HZD more resembles Uncharted/Tomb Raider than Ubisoft games to me which I find much more manageable.
