Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann sat down with Guerrilla Games managing director Hermen Hulst to discuss the studio's shift away from Killzone, and the long process of bringing Horizon Zero Dawn to life. Learn how the game changed through the course of its development, how Aloy came together, and what Neil thinks of the game. - เกม
This is like one of the coolest thing I have seen on the internet. Two brilliant and hard working game developers just sitting down and chatting about games. Love to see more of these Sony.
I agree
Kenshin Himura well said, my thoughts exactly. Really nice, genuine guys. You can tell they both operate on such a high level. The interview even inspires me to be more committed at my own job, which has nothing to do with gaming. The commitment is relatable, if that's an English word. Ha.
Well it's unfortunate for Neil now.
Yikes
Omega yikes
Haha this is awesome. The writer from my favorite studio talking with the head of an amazing studio from my own country :D Would love to see more videos like this with game creators! :)
...Seems like that's only happening on the playstation side to be honest.
And my favorite TH-camr commenting on the video! :D
Cory Barlog, Siobhan Reddy, Mark Cerny, Keiichirō Toyama, Fumito Ueda... just gather all these people, throw them in a room and get them talking about games :D
Everson Bernardes no love for kojima and miyazaki?
RobinGaming Same, quite surprising seeing these guys together. :)
I've always wondered whether PlayStation studios were friendly with one another or not... it seems they really are. I love PS amily and the games they make. I just hope no more studios get shut down
gabriel jimenez they are, you should follow them on twitter, always congratulating each other and sharing fan art of their characters together
gabriel jimenez its been like that since ps1. Insomniac games with spyro and crash bandicoot for naughty dog. Most of their games had demos of the other (ex Spyro 2, has a crash team racing demo) jak and Dax had Easter eggs of ratchet and clank and vice versa. Sly cooper joined in on the fun for ps2 as well
Geurilla Games gave Kojima Productions their game engine. What do you think ?
Yeah they usually help each other on stuff one is better than the other.BTW Santa Monica which is Sony's own studio helps out every studio under Sony's.
SIE Santa Monica is properly the biggest contributors of helping other developers out of all of sony internal studios.
Could you imagine the ideas they talked about off camera? It would be amazing to have them colab on a game together.
Alexander Wayne, if they collabed on a game together they would break the economy the game would be so perfect.
Tizona76 guerilla are sharing their decima engine with kojima productions. they also shared their killzone engine for until dawn. They are great collaborators.
The Decima engine is the Killzone engine.
Why not just let naughty dogs handle the graphics field
Deathbrewer Well sure because Killzone was far more linear.
After TLOU 2 and Horizon 2 you guys should collab on an open world game together.
Naughty Dog does the writing and characters for all the main and side quests.
Guerrilla does the combat and gameplay.
Collaborate on graphics, animations, and filling the world with things to do.
Oh no,not another open world game.....
Sic Parvis Magna the day will come when you won't be
I kinda feel like all Sony devs should start sharing engine tech, I mean the tool sets and optimisation would be crazy.
Angelo Carlos
I mean a full collaboration like Guerrilla and Kojima have.
So we get something the quality of CD Projekt. :D
Two of the biggest Xbox killers sitting at a table
Just need Cory Barlog.
@@reheapification2
Trueee!!
@@reheapification2 🤣🤣🤣
Sike
you just need cory barlog and hideo kojima.
I'm glad Hermen is the new head of PS Worldwide Studios, he is genuinely passionate about videogames and is not just a business man but an actual artist and gamer.
Are you still glad ? Hahaha
@@felipehorvath1157 YES
Pushing pro consumerism is nothing wrong
@@felipehorvath1157 Why?
Same with Shawn layden. Tbh I love both of em and I wouldn’t mind who’s the head of ps studios
Sony need to do this more often. They got like 20+ studios and it really would be cool to see studios talk games and what they want to achieve. And by the way I guarantee you Kojima productions will officially become a PlayStation studio for good. They will offer him something he just can't turn down. And we already know sony treat their studios the greatest with all around freedom to do what they want. And I bet nobody knew take-two interactive just signed a deal with Sony with a 3yr contract that could expand depending on if Sony want it to.
mike warhead yeah, Kojima is pretty much attached to Sony now. They give him the freedom he deserves let alone the good relationship he's had with them since mgs1
They have 13 game studios last time I checked.
Mike jones No
Kojima’s not going to be a PlayStation studio. Kojima has explained that he wants to remain independent with his company. Now they’ve partnered up with Xbox for their next game.
“Do you ever worked on a game for 6 yrs?
Never worked on anything for 6 yrs.
I highly recommend it. You take your time.”
2 yrs later, “TLOU pII” in development for 6 yrs 🔥
They didn't develop it for 6 years, to be exact it's 4 years. They still had to do Uncharted 4
@@cryptox1469 actually no , last of us 2 and uncharted 4 were in development at the same time
That is soo amazing, it is nice to see that Sony devs learn from each other
Hugo Medina I hope he’s not going to make it 7 years😅
This aged poorly
Two Top Studios +Sony Santa Monica ❤
Sony Fan if Cory Barlog was here it would be amazing
Sony Fan Santa Monica is not the same without Stig (GOW3 awesome director)
Sony Fan Add Sony Bend and sucker punch too!
Don't forget Sucker Punch.
And sucker Punch ..media modul..Sony Bend ..ok Yes ;-)
Playstation , thank you guys so much for natively typing English subtitles. I really appreciate it. Hope you folks know that we in the deaf and hard of hearing community are super happy to be able to understand awesome vids like these. :D
I can't be the only one who was smiling the whole time while watching this video. Thank you Sony for this video. This is the type of video I love watching and I automatically start to appreciate more about their games.
I loved the video so much that I can watch this everyday on my lunch time...
SyedAhmedPS No youre not only one ;) me too. ist fascinating. I hope to see more of videos like that
I just finished Horizon after 70h playing with Platin. Such a amazing game.Great job Guerrilla.
Go for it.
3kycat I got it just one minute ago. It was so satisfying when it finally popped up. I'm happy now.
Those guys and some others are the reason we prefer playstation!!!!
And now they’re the reason why i dont! They can be and do anything!
@@DarkaiXeno true ...
You'll never see videos from the Xbox channel that shows 343 and Black Tusk talking about their New Ip game because Microsoft will not allow them to make anything outside of Halo and Gears.
Berserker oo microsoft said that or your just assuming ?
Berserker oo Sad but true.
Del Patio you can look at bungie. They wanted to work on something else than halo reason they had to back out and look for other publisher for destiny
Del Patio You dont need assumption bro its obvious that microsoft wont allow them to create a new ip!
Christoper Bacani not saying your lying but i haven't seen any video of 343 and Black Tusk wanting to work on a new IP. I had tried looking to see but from what i seen from them it doesn't seem like they want to, at least not right now
Horizon Zero Dawn has the best clouds in a game EVER.
Ultimo D nah mafia 3 has best clouds LOL
Yeah I just bought HZD just to look at clouds
Arthur Morgan would like to speak with you
red dead redemption clouds are fully rendered and 3d from above, even though you never see them
Ok...?
I wish PlayStation did more of these, imagine a conversation between Hideo Kojima, Hidetaka Miyazaki, Neil Druckmann, Lucas Pope, id Software developers, etc. Would make for a very interesting discussion.
I hope this type of video becomes a series. Have other devs, artist, actors and writers interview each other. It's refreshing.
Naughty Dog, Guerrilla Games, CD Project Red, Rockstar Games, Kojima Productions - the future is yours, we trust you.
juadam Future is Sony \Playstation and For the Players!
juadam Couldnt have agreed more, let the future come to life
Juadam Not sure how I feel about Rockstar being in that lineup... We'll see how good RDR2 is but I'm getting some not-so-good vibes from Rockstar since GTAV release. Not saying it's a bad game, not at all, I'm just saying they cancelled SP story expansions in favor of online DLC so they can cash in on Shark Cards with minimal effort.
There are more developers then your shallow mind can handle..
Remove Rockstar Games. They're not the developers they used to be. All they ever care about is making money off of Shark Cards. And I'm pretty sure RDR2 will have the same problem.
seeing this in my recommended list after all the leaks.. this aged like fine wine
🍷
Neil should have got a pen and paper out
U haven't play the game chill
William Greene we’ve also seen blatant abuse of the DMCA system on TH-cam and the internet from Sony
Game was awesome tho sooo
PLAYSTATION : Bringing Devs together
I love how Neil appreciated the foliage in HZD, and then you see the forest scene from TLO2 trailer and it's like.. wowwwww
Horizon Zero Dawn is truely the most beautiful open world game ever created.
It was, now is RDR2
@@weskechannel6139 not really, being the most realistic doesnt equal being the most beautiful
It is Witcher 3 but HZD is 2nd in my opinion.
DylanG0125 I mean, I dont agree but I respect your opinion
RDR2 is a better looking game in every sense. Horizon is stunning though.
This is why Sony Interactive entertainment will always be the best with huge diversity and strong dedication to making PlayStation even better keep the games coming.
Whoever was responsible for making this video a thing; thank you.
Truly fascinating watching these two great minds talk to each other.
Neill has perfect hair and beard. a genius writer too.
WTF hahahahaha
nobody survives even one bit he's really average tbh...the amount of dev time gives him alot of time to iterate on his storytelling compared to a movie or tv show
***** Dude that just a compliment. There's nothing gross about that.
... greasy hair... :/
LOL. Genius writer....who can barely write videogames script with basic writing skills and who still has to copy and paste from numerous movies.
When I saw the thumbnail of them two I honestly thought this was gonna be a partnership announcement.
Rune Absolutely not, that could Destroy Xbox!!!
Rune that could be ;)
Like... in a sexual way?
Rum Donkey really
Hermen Hulst is such a nice, positive and confident guy... An awesome fit for head of PlayStation Studios
Making characters where their gender and sexuality is their character vs character that doesn't need to let you know their sexuality or that they're a female.
My favorite female characters in any piece of Media:
1.) Matoko Kusanagi (GITS Stand Alone Complex)
2.) Senua (Hellblade)
3.) Jill Valentine (original Resident Evil)

Legend has it Neil's water remains in that very spot, at that very bar, to this day.
This comment section would be very different now in 2020
How so?
Keep Druckmann and his intentions away from Horizon 2. I don’t want this masterpiece to be ruined as well.
I never played it but I love it
This is so funny cause my fav games are horizon zero dawn and the last of us. Such beautiful games
Jihyo Twice •o• hilarious
rip
I love videos like this
All we need is Cory Balrog and we got the dream team
Unless one of the three transitioned into a full blown SJW lol
@@jed52 Cough cough we already know who cough cough
This comment aged liked a rotten tomato
@@jed52 ooh this is awkward
Now almost everyone have a different opinion on Neil Druckmann
Lol yea what a creep
Because internet is very toxic at times. People demonize others for no reason
A very loud minority does. 🤦♂️
A very unfair one after making such a great game, this is pure hivemind mentality its scary
literally everyone, or you hate him, or you are now fanatic for him, and those fanatical people are because they have the same political opinion, which is forced in the game
2 men that made two great games
I would love it if Playstation did like a 'Hollywood Reporter roundtable' with 6 big Playstation game directors talking about games.
Imagine Cory Balrog, Neil Druckmann, Bryan Intihar, Mathijs de Jonge, Nate Fox and Jeff Ross at a table talking about Game Direction.
Or Hidetake Miyazaki, Hideo Kojima, Fumito Ueda, Katsuro Hashino, Tetsuya Nomura and Taro Yoko at a table talking about Game Design.
This explains a lot about the "improved" design of aloy.
A round table with Neil Druckmann, Hermen Hulst, Cory Barlog and Nate Fox would be nice
Now put Kojima with them in that table and i will throw my money on the screen.
heck i want all them sony lads in huge sofa
K. Tamer no doubt about it
K. Tamer Just imagine if those 3 people would get together and build a game Together. Can you imagine the creativity they will put into a game like that? The possibilities are Endless with just Kojima Directing the game, you put the other 2 in there with Kojima, and the possibilities are infinite.
I am glad that Naughty Dog has stuck to linear level design after all these years because I feel the open world genre is becoming seriously over saturated. Horizon Zero Dawn has a great open world map but I don't want a dev to make an open world game unless they absolutely know how to make a good one and take their time. I feel Rockstar Games, Bethesda Game Studios, and even CD Projekt Red are some of the best at crafting amazing open worlds because they polish them and take their time making the maps.
Yea Uncharted 4 and Resident Evil 7 are keeping linear alive.
SmoothLegend yes. also future naughty dog titles, a lot of good stuff on the PC, and some of the titles that Nintendo makes.
Sic Parvis Magna I mean linear games as a whole. that's one type of linear design choice.
I loved what they did in Uncharted 4 by giving small sections of open world. The Kings Bay market, the safari ride and the at sea levels are some of my favorite. Like they allow you to explore on your own in a game all about exploration and discovery, but when you're done with it it can go right back into a fun linear narrative. What they did was smart by not having a complete open world.
Elijah Clevenger yeah CDPR really polish their games. (Pun intended)
This is like the best gaming interview I have ever seen in my life.
You know what I love about these Sony exclusive companies? that they always look up and take advise from each other you don't see many companies doing that it's beautiful
Just wanted to say thank you to both teams for delivering such great content for the past 10+ years. Always excited for the next project! Last of us 2 and whatever DLC is coming out for horizon, I am ready and waiting for.
HZD is one of the greatest game ever!!!
@Endoe ONE opinion
THANK SO MUCH for making this possible, please more of this interviews!
Specially if they features Neil
We need a Cory Barlog interviews Neil Druckmann version next. 😂
What an amazing conversation!!! The creativity in that table!🔥
Naughty Dog and Guerrilla. I only need CD Projekt Red and we have easily the 3 best video game companies
RdlH93 Indeed
nah. not even close too.
Add Santa Monica, Sucker Punch, Hideo Kojima and FromSoftware as well for me thanks.
todd howard too, he's a legend
swap guerilla for rockstar.
0:15 to 0:30, how Druckmann should have listened to those words of wisdom
I could listen such amazing talented creators talk for hours! Would love to see round table conversations between Neil, Hermen, Cory Barlog (Sony Santa Monica), Sefton Hill (Rocksteady), Brian Intihar (Insomniac) and Nate Fox (Sucker Punch) and Hideo Kojima.
This might sound creepy but Neil druckmann brain has info I need TLOU2 :o
Jr I feel you Bro... I feel you.
Michel Pereira :D

Weird right ?
anyone know what sucker punch is up to? they've been awfully quiet for a while now

MrTophatreaper Huge restructuring and I think Nate Fox is gone.
they are supposed to announce a new ip at e3, super excited
Yo Mama
Did Sucker Punch officially say that recently or something?
All these old comments makes me laugh so much.

i finished horizon two days ago; my playthrough took over 50 hours (enjoyed every millisecond!). yesterday i ordered the collectors edition. this, along with bloodborne, are my absolute favorite games. if you haven't played horizon yet, do it! :)

It totally changed now...
This kind of interviews are great, hopefully we get to see more.
I have a sneaking suspicion this video will not age well....
I just hope Cockman stays FAAAAAAR away from the new one.
annnddd, it didn't
It really did not lol
This video did not age well.
Stay away from Neil druckman. He didn't take any advice lol
If Horizon and The Last of Us had a baby, it would be Jesus Christ.
Boondock z add Kojima to the mix and it would be god

rhackett25 lol. Minds work better rested.
The King of You Fools Are Amateurs how about you stfu. it was obviously a joke , hence the smiley face.
Exactly !! haha
I have a feeling that Neil is going to grow up to be George R.R Martin lol
already has the beard
Amazing games take time. Unlike The Walking Dead season 3 where they took three years to make a cruddy 5 hour game.
Can we get a Neil and Cory together please
These 2 are one of the most finest geniuses in the gaming industry. They are leading in technical marvels for us the gamers to play. It brings tears to my eyes they are here to understand one another.
Love this type of conversations/interviews. Please keep them coming!!
Kinda weird that now Hermen is technically Neil’s boss now lol
Did this interview take place in Ireland or just an Irish bar?
Amsterdam
A lot more people should watch this. Great Video, awesome to watch two amazing creative minds having a chat.
This is so nice, Sony should definetely get their creators together more often to talk about the process of creating games, it is really inspiring.
Neil Druckmann is national treasure.
Why greatness awaits when you have EXCLUSIVES like Uncharted, Horizon, Bloodborne, UntilDawn... And how can it go without mentioning those studios like NAUGHTYDOG and Guerilla Games
Came from the future to tell you Playstation does not have exclusives anymore. Hahahaha
I hate to compare, but as for the general consensus, which game do you guys prefer? *Uncharted 4: A Thief's End or Horizon Zero Dawn?*
Both are incredible masterpieces in their own right.
horizon
The Last Trap God uc4
Horizon by a mile.
I love Uncharted 4, but this time Guerrilla won. Horizon is one of the greatest games I have ever played. The combat with the machines (specially the big ones) are just breathtaking.
The Last Trap God Uncharted is my favourite series so Uncharted 4 is the best for me...although Horizon is great too...i got both games!
I could just watch 5 hours of this, man I love being a gamer in this time
Extension please 👌👌👌❤ I miss Aloy - by the way fantastic meeting, teamwork would lead to best game ever made ☺
IT is cool to see how beautiful These two are interact with each Other. Super Interview.
what a great Aloy , what a great Ellie, what a great Adventure you All gave us
I could sit and listen to these guys talk all day long. They both have very tempered, inviting personalities and such organic and compelling ways of talking about the creative process. I also really love that this is a conversation between two people from similar positions in the industry; you can tell they speak the same language and can meet in conversation on the same plane, which is a much more fruitful dynamic than when a games media interviewer talks with a creator. Would love to see more stuff like this. Massive cheers to Neil and Hermen for their work and wish you both success in the future!
Congratulations to Hermen and the rest of Guerrilla Games team. This game is a masterpiece. You guys deserve all the praise.
Hermen keep horizon its own . Don't listen to neil for how to do a sequel
Druckman has become the Paul Feig of video games. No one will listen to him anymore in a couple of years.
Thats what happens when ego outgrows common sense.
🤨y’all capping
You hurt
Naughty Dog and Guerrilla Games need to collaborate! Imagine the masterpiece they'd create
Druckman has the greasy, overgrown look of a man burdened by genius. A true modern artist who takes pride is work. Much respect.
Never trust edited comments...
Two genius guys - two amazing developer studios - awesome games - only on PlayStation.
Love these guys. Thank you Hermen Hulst (and all the Guerrilla Games team) for creating one of my favourite Sony games of all time. :)
So, in February we can expect this interview to continue, interview part II...
two of the greatest games ever made
the last of us and horizon zero Dawn
Next the talk between the directors of Scalebound and Fable.
Jin Kazama That be quick so why did you cancel your game ?
This is perfect listening to these two. I just finished the last of us second time. Now me and my friend are playing horizon zero dawn. Both beautiful.
I love Horizon, its such a pleasure to play and so addictive. Im constantly finding new things and meeting new characters. It's an adventure!
2 Masters of their crafts. Loved this interview
You don't get this talented supreme artist talk on the Xbox side of the street. PlayStation reigns supreme fellas
CrestfallenKnight Of Sorrow as a hard core xbox fan, i agree and thats why i love PlayStation
CrestfallenKnight Of Sorrow Definitely
Indeed.
Two of my heroes
The ones who inspired me to play all those magnificent Games.
And changed my life as a gamer forever
I cannot wait to make a game like this one day
They are my inspiration
I feel like Druckmann, Mathijs de Jonge (H:zero dawn) and people that made TW 3 should do a get together, Druckmann for the Story (obviously), and H:zero dawn's studio and CDPR can design the characters and the open-world and gameplay
This is so cool. The questions here are actually more interesting than the answers imo as they (might) give you some insight into the difficulties of decision making during development, especially if you keep Last Of Us Part II in mind.
Let's check these comments in another year
Liked, just to remind you that youre 4 months in
More of these interviews please !! .. I started watching then scrolled to see where I was and it was the end of the interview, 24 mins just flew by. Enjoyed and and want to hear more, and from other creators.
When these two came together how did they not create a void of awesomeness
