Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah. Still, I think there's stuff to talk about there as far as Horizon and how many Horizon projects. What do we want from Horizon?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
And that's the thing is, don't get this one confused with the other Horizon.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah, there is a Guerrilla Co-op game that has a unique art style that they put a job posting up for about a year or so ago that seems like it could have Monster Hunter elements. I don't think we know that much yet, but your fingers crossed and you hope that that's what that is.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I hate that for you.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
But even still, you look at that, you look at actual Horizon, you look at VR Horizon, you look at this MMO Horizon, you look at Lego Horizon, and at what point is it too much Horizon?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah, like, we've had... There's been so many greenlit Horizon projects, and I am bummed out for teams' projects being shut down, right? Like, it always sucks to see, like... oh man, y'all put in so much work towards this. I'm sure there was amount of you that were excited about this, right?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Like it always sucks to have a project that you're working on shut down because of financial decisions or like they couldn't support it or like y'all couldn't find the fund or whatever it is. So that sucks. That said, I do think that
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
This is one that maybe would have been turbulent no matter what, just because of the landscape of where we're at with PlayStation multiplayer and with, I think, the amount of Horizon that feels like it's now being forced, right? It doesn't feel as natural. I'm in for a Horizon multiplayer thing, but I'm in for one Horizon multiplayer thing. I don't need multiple.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Joy-Con. My little Joy-Con mouse. Can't wait for that. Can't wait for that. I'm sure it's going to be very accurate. You can play Counter-Strike on that thing. It's going to be very accurate.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
It's just like... I wonder if it is one of those things where they... Released Horizon Zero Dawn. It was a success. Sold a lot of copies. But it was also the perfect new IP, so it was fresh. It had something that had a world involved. When I think of something like Uncharted for a PlayStation IP, Uncharted for me is about Nathan Drake and his adventures.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Horizon, of course, is about Aloy, but there is a world there that I think I could see a business person looking at and going, oh, we can do so many different things. And even as a fan.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
And I wonder if when PlayStation looks at their most popular IPs and they look at, I guess, what they want to build toward as far as trying to expand based on IP, right? Because, like, you want to be able to get juice out of these things. You want to be able to, like...
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
you know have ip build on itself that's what nintendo does so well you have mario kart you have mario party you have mario golf esports game you have so many things that are mario you have so many things that are azalea you have so many things that are kirby i think playstation wants to do that a bit because that is that is smart business i think that is how you're supposed to do these things but i think with horizon i almost feel like horizon was um like almost thrusted into all right you're the prime like ip for us to do this with because you go through and it is well spider-man is also marvel we gotta work with marvel their life
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25

in singapore exactly god of war might be too adult too mature and like we don't want to we can't make a lego game out of out of god of war um same thing with last of us right maybe even same thing with ghost of tsushima i think horizon has enough of this is pg 13 slash we can make this more of a pg thing yeah it can fit all audiences it is vibrant like
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I think they saw it and got a bit too excited about the amount of things that they could do with Horizon when maybe you needed two or three more IP that had all those things at the same time so you could spread that love a little bit more.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I'm just fascinated by the stories that you tell there, too. Because I think you could tell really good stories in the Horizon world. But I think the place where I start to worry is the Ship of Theseus argument of how different is this from Horizon to a point where I still care about it as a Horizon fan, right? Because in an MMO, I don't expect to play as Aloy.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I expect to maybe be in a different part of the world or a different part of the country. The gameplay is going to be different.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah. Let's put you on a different continent and see how this is all going. But my thing is, how many things can be different until I'm like, okay, the only thing that's left about this that is Horizon is that there are the monsters that are machines. And is that enough to give people what they love about Horizon? Or do they love Aloy's story? Do they love...
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
aloy being like connected to the origins of like this world i guess light spoilers right of you know is that a core part of it is the gameplay a core part of it right her like being aloy and shooting the arrows and looking for those weak spots and like stealthing around and chipping off the parts of the machines i think so much of that stuff is core to the horizon experience that you remove enough of it and it's like what was the point of making this horizon it's a different thing at this point
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I'm excited. Honestly, I think Tim's predictions might get me more excited. I'm, of course, like in a perpetual state of, wow, I'm very much looking forward to the next Switch thing. It's been years and years of being like, man, we kind of need a new Switch because these games are starting to look a bit stale, starting to look a bit old. They still play great because it's Nintendo, right?

Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
That was at least five, right? We got pretty good. We got four. We had solid four. We had a solid four characters. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We did it. Good job, guys. Angel of Basset. I remember that.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I forgot all about Carrie. To be honest, right? I think the things that I... If I'm to talk about the things I love about Horizon, I don't think... the characters are necessarily the number one or two. For me, it is... Like, the style and presentation of it, which I know is a bit superficial, but it's true, right? Like, I think those machines are cool as hell.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I think a world, a post-apocalyptic world that has these machine monsters that are roaming the land and have taken everything over, that's a cool-ass concept. And I think they nailed that part of it. I think the gameplay is fun. I really like the bow and arrow and, like, the different arrows and all that stuff.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Like, I think that's, like, exploring the open world, that stuff is the stuff that gets me in first. And then I do like the story. Data. Which one? We missed an easy one. Beta! Damn! I forgot all about beta. I'm going to forget everything. This is a game showdown thing for sure. But yeah, when I list the things that I love about Horizon, I think the story is... Parts of the story I love.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
But, like, there's a level of, like, I look at these... Visual fidelity. Yeah, I look at the visual fidelity. I look at these assets. I look at these characters, and I'm like, ooh, I don't like the jaggies. I don't like how rough some of these environments look. I play Pokemon Scarlet, and I'm like, why does it look like this? Like, what are we doing here?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I think there are really cool reveals in the story, but overall, when I'm talking about the beat to beat of the story... Cameron Kennedy, they named the same lady three times.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
but yeah i don't know yeah you're right horizon's horizon's a weird one and like i can't wait for the next game because i hope the next game like the next mainline horizon because i do hope it wraps it up and then we move on to the next thing i think it will and i hope and i think what it really needs to do is shake it up and be different horizon uh forbidden west being so similar and again i'm being loose with this but in terms of like
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Would you have wanted a Horizon MMO? To the Super Chat question?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I know we talked about God of War a few KFG's ago and about how, like, nobody wants a live service God of War thing. Yeah. I would prefer a God of War MMO than a Horizon MMO. Really? I think there's something... At least, I think that world is interesting.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
And so I've always been excited for it, but I will say I don't think the Switch 2 hardware reveal got me...
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
more excited necessarily i think for me it will be software driven like we got to get to that nintendo direct to let us know what the software is going to be because i think sure enough we're going to get one or two or three things that make us go oh snap i can't wait for that right we're going to get a 3d mario we're going to see more of mario kart and i'm sure we'll get one more thing that's like oh man like i can't like those are the big ones like metroid prime 4 probably right yeah but then we're going to get a bunch of weird shit that we have no idea what to make of
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast

You know what's cool? Siphon filter. Siphon filter is cool.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I agree with that 100%. I need something that's just like pulp action or like espionage.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
No. Because that's so far away, most likely, right? We're talking about 2030. We're going to get O.D. out, then we're into Physiotherapy. Three games away. That's going to be the PS6. I'm going to be at least 35. Maybe have a child or two. You know, like, listen, I can't... Oh, it wasn't on purpose. Oh, shit. Sorry, my bad. Yeah, I'm sorry.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
But yeah, no, I mean, like, I'm... I really do hope for the best for Ben's studio as far as, like, putting out their next project and what that is. Because, like...
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
we need a hero like we need i i think it'd be really nice to see a playstation first party studio give us that same put out a game first of all yeah but give us that same feeling of when gorilla put out horizon or when um sucker punch put out um ghost of tsushima right like i miss that feeling we got that so much toward the end of the ps4 generation i feel like ben still has that in them
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Thinking about the most boring slash unexciting answer to this, what are the chances you think from Bluepoint we get an Uncharted 1 remake and from Ben we get a new Uncharted game?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Like we're going to get the arms. We're going to get the snipper clips. Like we're going to get the one to switch. Like we're going to get the weird ass games that make us go, oh, that's weird. I guess we'll see. Like, and that's the thing that excites me, right? Like I think nobody does a, I think a year one launch slate like Nintendo when it comes to embracing the weirdness of their platform.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I want that studio to have something.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah. Was this one of the ones that was like... One of, like, the really graphically, like, crazy games that we... Kevin, can I see a trailer for Black State? Because I don't recall Black State off the top of my head. Oh. Yeah.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Yeah, no, I think this is one of the ones that, like, me and Andy might have reacted to a while ago. Like, sometime last year. And it was, like, Metal Gear meets Portal. That's how IGN put it.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I mean, these kind of games, I always feel... Motion Blur Studio Black State. I always feel like... Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. I feel like you never know. It's just like a tech demo. Yes.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
You never know until it actually comes out, is my thing. Like, for me, it is the same thing of a Stellar Blade or a Black Myth Wukong, where you watch the trailer and you're like, oh, that looks fantastic, or that looks like the best thing ever. And then you play it and you're like, oh, it's just another video game, which is cool, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, but...
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
It looks cool in the sense that you can open doors. You can open doors. Guess what? Different things are in the doors. Fidelity looks good.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
And so I can't wait to see if the mouse feature, because of course there's speculation of like the mouse functionality, right? But if that actually is a thing, I feel like we're going to get a game that is specifically for that. And I know people in chat are going to scream Mario Paint, Mario Paint, but that's the easy answer. Nintendo never goes for the easy answer.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
It's about to get expensive.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
This is one that, like, obviously, or not obviously, but this is one that is over my head a bit as far as
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
how to like analyze this and talk about it because i am not a political person like i'm not you know as in tune with tariffs and how they work and all this shit and like how that shit yeah but it does concern me as far as like the success of video games the accessibility of video games right like if software goes up if uh physical games go up if hardware also goes up in price right like
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
This is what it is now. There was a story in the last week about how an analyst was talking about how GTA 6 coming out and possibly being more expensive is exciting for certain companies that are like, oh, shit, okay. If GTA 6 comes out and is, let's say, $100... man, that then opens up things for us, right?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Like, you know, that is... People are waiting for that moment to be able to push that price up and, like, be able to justify the amount of money it's taking to either make these games or just the amount of money that people want in general, right? If you're higher up and trying to, like, increase shareholder stuff, right?
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Like, that is a thing that people are waiting for, and it seems like we're in this place of... you know, wait for the right time, and once the time is right, boom, like, video games will be $90, $100 to buy.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast

Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25

Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
if magic the magic arena went down right now come on oh man oh man i would be protesting on the front lines but also uh has there been a scenario and this might be for chat right or like you if you remember of like a developer being like yeah we're looking for a new publisher it's like straight out coming out like a day after a thing happened and being like yeah we're in the process of looking for a new publisher that seems wild that like i don't think that's unheard of
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
Because that's what I, I start connecting that of like, I guess my brain was, my brain immediately went, oh damn, like the publisher usually has like a certain power, like, um, To be able to go, we're going to look for a different publisher while you still have your publisher. I didn't get the fear of, like, what if you don't find another publisher? Then you're stuck with this one.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
The thing, so I think putting out Animal Crossing on Switch at launch would be the equivalent of if Taylor Swift performed at Warfield in San Francisco, right? You're too big for this venue. Sure, sure, sure. We need a place that has way bigger seating. We need to wait until maybe even year three of the Switch 2 before we put Taylor Swift back in.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25

I did have a conversation with somebody who works in the industry and also is a big Warhammer person. Yeah. And they told me the reason why there's so many Warhammer games. I'm going to be honest. I forgot. I forgot what they told me. They think it was something along the lines of, like, basically they're very easy to license.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
And, like, there's something about the splits on the games, like, financially, where it's very beneficial to the developer to put out a Warhammer game. Got it. I forget the exact details, though, so I'm sorry about that. That's fine.

Dude, that's what I'm saying. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale? PlayStation All-Stars Battle Card Royale. I'll figure out a different name. But I was thinking about Riot's card game yesterday because they're putting out a card game as well. And it looks like it plays a lot, like Magic. And I'm like, man... Everybody, let's do it.

I want to be the content. I've tried watching some Magic content, and the tough thing, and honestly, maybe a little hypocritical of me saying I want to be the content, is that I don't find the content fun to watch. I don't really love watching other people play Magic. I say that even though I want to play Magic for other people. It's that weird thing of tabletop.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I think it's just a tough... Tabletop board games and card games and stuff are tough to translate to, I think, engaging YouTube content. At least for some people, right? The ones that I saw definitely had views to them. So I know there's an audience for that out there. But yeah, I don't have as much fun watching as I do playing. Gotcha.

Immortals Fenyx Rising. Yeah, meet the mortal things rising, maybe. Yeah, like it's led up by Mike Laylaw, who formerly was a Bioware. And so very much looking forward to it.

It breaks my heart. I'm so sad. No, this is one that I think is fascinating. I guess I will say it doesn't break my heart, but it does make me sad a little bit because I think... I don't think this would have been a surefire success by any means, and we can get into that, but I think there is an interesting prospect there as far as making an MMO in the Horizon world.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
I think the Horizon world is interesting, and I do think there are a lot of elements of that world that could translate well to... and explorable, trying to expand that out into something where you are discovering these different tribes and meeting these different villages and running quests with friends and having it be a multiplayer thing.
Kinda Funny Games Daily: Video Games News Podcast
Horizon Zero Dawn MMO Reportedly Cancelled - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.21.25
The fascinating thing about this story, I think, is the fact that this seems like more of a product of the inner goings of NCSoft as opposed to PlayStation. I see people... Freaking out about that in the chat.
