I almost admire their shamelessness

This is crazy, its so blatant and sweeping. Like its not a sort of rip off its a complete rip off. I do hope Sony wins this one actually. It's one thing to aesthetically rip off a popular multiplayer shooter that has inspired many other similar shooters, but its another to rip off a unique single player IP like horizon. Horizon is asily one of the most unique IPS out there

Juicy! Great reporting as always. Plagiarism sucks. I know that Riot was also mad about Honor of Kings ripping off Leauge, but there obviously wasn't much they could do (being a subsidiary and all lmao)

Finally! Tencent and it's many offshoots have been doing this for a while. Glad a big company is doing something about it. I'm not Sony fan but they couldn't be more right about this. Should surprise no one that Chinese companies knock off everything

Wow. Shameless. Clearly confusing for audiences.

Also, and I don’t mean to be a troll, but this other game looks kind of compelling in ways horizon is not. Horizon is such an assassins creed game.

Horizon is an archery game, which works really well with the machines components and weaknesses. This looks like uninspired souls combat.

I like the mount designs though.

Does seem shockingly blatant when it’s laid out like that…
