Naughty Dog Creative director Neil Druckmann recently had a few things to say about Horizon Zero Dawn's visuals. Mainly, he stated that they're simply stunning and that Guerrilla Games has set the new "bar" that he wants to top with The Last of Us: Part II.
Druckmann said this in a recent interview (below) with Hermen Hulst, managing director of Guerilla Games. Druckmann notes that while Naughty Dog's Uncharted 4 is beautiful, the sheer density of Horizon Zero Dawn's open world is impressive, to say the least.
“The graphics are staggering. I don’t even think of it as graphics because I’m in the woods. I’m in this overgrown environment, and I’m like, “How are they getting so much foliage, such density in an open-world game” He said.
“You better believe I’m going to my team, and I’m saying like, “Okay. This is the bar now.”, he continued. “We have to top this.” It’s awesome. We’re super excited for you guys, we know how hard you worked on this game.”
It's nice to see healthy competition between allies.
