Horizon Players: Are you planning on shelving it to start Elden Ring?
- Thread starter swimming
- Start date
Nope. I'm knee deep in HFW and already dropped DL2 for it. Even though ER is already preloaded, it can wait until I finish the other two.
I beat Horizon this afternoon and while I still want to do a ton of side content, I'll take a break. That said, I'm waiting on Elden Ring until a price drop. Just not a big Souls fan and don't want to get caught in the hype like I did with Bloodborne before realizing it still isn't for me. But I'll try it with reviews like this. Probably when it hits 40.
No, playing both at the same time, obviously I will focus mostly (if not only) on ER the first 2, 3 days but after that I will go back and forth with both games.
Nope.
HFW -> filler(no open world) -> short filler (no open world) -> Elden Ring.
If GoW:R is out when I'm playing Elden Ring, I will drop it for GoW.

Don't know. I think I'm getting to a really good part in Horizon, I'm eager to keep playing. But, I also want to jump into Elden Ring Day 1.
Maybe mostly Elden Ring and do some side quests in Horizon here and there.

Probably not. I might play Elden Ring for a couple of hours just to check it out but Horizon is definitely my priority right now.
Yep. I'm not enjoying Horizon. Its no different to an Assassin's Creed game in my opinion. I appreciate a lot of people disagree and love it, but it feels way too familiar. Elden Ring looks much more interesting. I have it preloaded on my PC and I can't wait to get stuck in tomorrow night.
I'll probably play both and alternate. The problem is when Turismo comes out, I'm friggen eating man.
No that's silly. I'm already 15 hrs in and invested. ER is not going anywhere and by the time I get to it should have multiple QoL patches
Nope, and I will play some non open world game after this before getting to Elden Ring. Who knows, might even get a cheap copy by then.
That is assuming there are no frame pacing issues, it does sound promising for PS5.

I have tried/played Bloodborne (only a few hours, couldn't get into it), Sekiro (played about half of the game or so and fell off and never finished), Demon Souls PS5 (finished and LOVED it). So I am NO mT a huge fan of this genre and I wouldn't care at ALL had I not played and beat Demon Souls recently.
With that said, I am LOVING HFW and want to play more. But when Elden Ring drops, I am going to play that until I get super frustrated and then go back to HFW until I beat it and then back to Elden Ring. I just know that I for sure want to beat HFW within the next week or so.

Why are you people so obsessed with this, it's not the first time two big games launch in the same week/month, sometimes we even had big games launching the same day.
I'll just play both and will be switching between them whenever I feel to, no rush or anything, they'll keep me busy for months easily

I'm going to finish off Horizon before I jump in to Elden Ring. How ever long that takes is fine by me. I'm getting Elden Ring on PS5 so I don't really want to be jumping between them. If I was getting Elden Ring on PC I would probably play both at the same time.
Not playing Horizon but definitely dropping what I'm playing if I haven't beat it by tomorrow. Feels bad because I have a tendency to not go back to things but eh it's fucking Elden Ring.
No, I'm probably not getting Elden Ring until closer to the summer. I can wait.
And honestly this. A good amount of big games come out between end of October and throughout November so I don't see what makes this situation any different lol

I'll definitely finish off Horizon first, having a blast with it. I had prioritized it due to not wanting to be spoiled on the story, and I'm extremely glad I did. Repeating from the OT: I didn't think the game could really surprise me, because there were only two-ish sequel hooks from the first game that could really be used, and it seemed like the game was already heading in one of those directions. I WAS STILL VERY SURPRISED BY SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED. Can't wait to find out what happens next.
I basically did this at a certain point during one of the quests:
I'm really excited for Elden Ring, though, and am very happy for Miyazaki and the folks at FromSoftware that it's reviewing so well. It looks incredible, and I'm looking forward to savoring it. I'm also waiting to see whether XSX or PS5 is the way to go. It's only February, and I'm already spoiled for choice!
I'm normally a 'one open world game a year' kinda person, and there's also Xenoblade Chronicles 3 later this year...
...god help us all if BotW2 comes out in 2022.

Ill be playing both, ive been rushing a bit with HFW to finish before ER but realized i can just take my time with both. Its a really good game- i dont know why its an either or with Era.
Nah once I finish Horizon and had my fill on Destiny I'll move on to Elden ring.
And by then there should be some nice guides to enhance my playthrough!

I bought Horizon but didn't start it because I knew I wouldn't be able to finish before Elden Ring.
I'm not buying Elden Ring but my experience with previous times is that if I'm enjoying a game and stop it to play another one I then have trouble getting back to the first game. Maybe finish Horizon as fast as you can and them move to Elden Ring.
Well, it's literally the two biggest games for me (and others) this year and they are being released a week apart from each other. I love From Software games and I loved Horizon ZD. Of course I'm thinking about what game to play first or whether I could reasonably play both in parallel.
