I've see people say there are similarities between Horizon (the first one) and Ubisoft open world games, so I would assume the sequel is not going to be the sort of game people would want to play excessively over a short period of time, i.e., try to finish before Elden Ring is out
Gamefly Horizon day one, play for a week or whatever, then purchase PS5 Elden Ring.
The latter just seems to have more replay value.

I don't really care about Elden Ring and Sony 1st party games are too expensive at launch so I'll be playing neither this month probably. Though I might just pick Horizon up shortly after I finish BotW2 later this year like I did for the first games back in 2017 so that I can appreciate that game even more. The Horizon series is already notorious for this after all.
I'll probably play Horizon first and it'll take me quite a while because my gaming time is super limited.
By that time all the broken build for Elden Ring will be discovered and I can start my journey working towards an overpowered build when I start the game...

Probably neither, to be honest. Given that it took me four years to finally play the copy of Horizon I bought at launch, and that both Atelier Sophie 2 and Gran Turismo 7 are coming very soon, I decided to wait on Horizon even though I'm pretty sure I'll like it a lot.
Elden Ring doesn't even enter into it for me, as I have yet to play a Soulsbourne game and it's not clear to me I would enjoy them.

This will be me.
I am going to end up dropping everything else when elden ring arrives.
I will probably buy horizon in the summer. I kind of want to replay the first game beforehand as well.
I know how people feel about FromSoft games, but me personally I'm about 1000X more exciting for Horizon. It's not even close.
I'll be playing Elden Ring at launch and I'm still debating whether or not I want to pick up Horizon.

I'm moving straight to ER when it drops and FW will be on the back burner.
Just like last time, I'm playing through Horizon and enjoying my time with it, then on to Elden Ring. I'm not rushing through Horizon either
Elden Ring will be heavily discounted in November. It will be an easy wait until there.
Horizon, unfortunately, with the terrible pricing practices from Sony will take a while to be fairly priced.
Here in Brazil the physical edition is considerably cheaper than digital so I'll just go for it.

A person or culture & taste, I see.
This is my plan as well. I've just been playing VR games and shorter stuff in anticipation of Elden Ring and ELEX 2 back-to-back. Hopefully I won't need a break inbetween, at least not longer than a week or so.
Never had a switch then so I just played Horizon day one.
This time gonna go through Horizon in a week, then no life Elden ring the go back for the plat trophy in Horizon after

Last time, I skipped Horizon at launch and played Zelda until Horizon came on sale like three months later. Genuinely not sure what I'm doing now. Horizon will probably be the smoother experience for me, difficulty-wise, so I may just get that at launch and skip ER until it goes on sale.
Did BOTW+New switch last time and didn't play Horizon till 2 years later when I was open to the forumal ended up enjoying them both.
This time will be KOFXV for a fighting fix and will start Horizon before Elden Ring and hopefully GT7 i'm pretty much set for months on top of all the good stuff on switch so will just play one at a time

Horizon doesn't do much for me where as I'm pretty interested in Elden Ring. If I manage to score a XSX or PS5 before it comes out, I'll get it. If not, I'll wait until a get a new console before playing Elden Ring.
I don't own a switch, so 2017 was no problem.
This year I'll delay my purchase of Horizon until I'm done with Elden Ring. There's no way I can finish Horizon within a week and I would stop playing it as soon as Elden Ring is here. So instead of interrupting my Horizon playthrough I'm just gonna delay it entirely.

Even though I Platinumed the original Horizon on PS4, I had no desire to play the DLC. No real hype to continue the story.
Most importantly, From Software games would trump any game head to head for my attention. So the question above would still be unfair to Horizon even if I wanted to play it. Everything loses to Elden Ring.

It's going to be a packed gaming schedule :) Horizon -> over to Elden Ring whenever I'm done -> Over to GT7 when both of those are wrapped.
I don't have the time to blitz through games the way some people do so my initial thought is to hold off on buying anything until Elden Ring and then move onto Horizon when I'm done with it. I do have a nice long four day weekend next week though which is making me question that decision. I could make a decent dent in Horizon but will probably still need a few weeks to finish it especially if I decide I want to go for the platinum.
Getting Elden Ring at launch. I will likely play it multiple times so I will start with it. I will get Horizon in a few months. Loved the original, but likely will only play through it once
I've yet to play the first Horizon, so I need to get on that before I think about getting the sequel.
For me, it's FF VI PR and then Elden Ring. I might first try to play FF VI through, and then wait to play Elden Ring for a few days, maybe another patch or something. But I might not be able to wait that long. I think I'll get too excited once Elden Ring drops.

Horizon will drop day one running and playing beautifully, ER I have less hopes for. So it'll be HFW, then Witch Queen, then Elden Ring later in the year/next year when it's cheaper and better.
Playing both back and forth. A nice week of Horizon before jumping into Elden Ring, and I should be finished with both by the 25th of March when my next purchase, Kirby comes out. :)
Just Elden Ring. I keep giving GG the benefit of the doubt, but their games fail to grab me every time; will wait til it hits PS Plus.
