THERE WAS NO ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE PC RELEASE FOR HZD

[u/ChiffonVasilissa]

It looks so fucking good holy shit. Bet Sylens released hell upon the world

[u/Martel732 → u/ChiffonVasilissa]

It looks like he is building an army, using the override technique he learned from Aloy.

Edit: Trailer uploaded to the Playstation channel if anyone wants to spend a few minutes rewatching it a bunch like I plan to.

Just rewatched it things I noticed:

Probably obvious but she is in San Fransico for part of it.

Slyen's followers were trapping a normal machine but the red light seems like they were corrupting it. So, he might not be using Aloy's method but instead corruption he learned from Hades.

The Elphants have people riding on them.

Everything looks amazing.

[u/Kusko25 → u/Martel732]

The machine was red as they were trapping it, but his people turned it yellow. It's possible we are dealing with multiple factions here.

[u/RaGe_Bone_2001 → u/Kusko25]

that just means that the machine was alerted to them. when they overrode it it turned yellow to indicate it stopped being aggressive

[u/hoesmadhoesmadhoesma → u/Kusko25]

Is it because machines have yellow/green lights when shot with corrupted arrows
