This video was the real masterpiece! What an incredible piece of content bro. I’ve learned so much about video games and the art behind them through your channel. Keep the videos coming.
Finally played the game this weekend and am getting back to your video! I loved the game, especially that unique way Team Ico craft harrowing yet beautiful worlds, but I also loathed the game. I’ve had a cat now for about 5 years and I definitely saw a lot of that animal-like personality in Trico. It was super endearing and was an absolute marvel at just how lifelike he felt, even though he’s a creature that doesn’t even exist. But just like you, that AI was also a HUGE point of frustration for me and I even got stuck on the same water section as you for minutes on end. The camera was also somehow more broken than SOTC and just like you said, the final third of the game feels very unrefined and puzzles became so obfuscated that it drove me insane trying to figure out if I just wasn’t getting it or if Trico’s AI was messing up. All that said, it was unforgettable and although my frustrations will keep me from replaying it for a long time, it was so refreshing to play something so original and unique.
Thanks for coming back! I'm glad you were able to see through the finicky AI and still walk away with a unique happiness. This game is super special. I can't help but feel like games such as TLG shifted Sony to the less artsy and more "guaranteed seller" direction they're in now (minus Concord haha).
@ yeah it’s a real shame they pretty much don’t take any chances anymore. Astro Bot is the closest thing as of late and I would still hardly consider that a risky release.
I'm genuenly amazed that you don't have like 2 million subs and at least 350K views on this video. Such a high quality, such precious thoughts, such passion, I hope you'll never burn out and get the recognition you deserve. I already gave you my contribution 🎂
I can't thank you enough for the kind words. Sometimes I get discouraged because the internet is a wide ocean of content. Especially gaming content. All I can do is work hard, be passionate, and make videos I'm proud of. Thank you again!
@@WITAWITAVG I am a simple man, if I see a small channel I don't take them as seriously as a popular channel (I know, I'm dumb, but that's who I am), but in your case, I didn't even realize how (sorry for the harsh word) small your channel is, because the quality of these videos can easily compete with anybody in this scene
This is one of my favorite games that I've ever played. I loved the world building, the mystery, the dynamics between trico and the boy, and the non verbal storytelling, the "language" spoken in the game, the general look and feel of the world visually... a masterpiece indeed. Great video!
This video was the real masterpiece! Your content is really amazing man. I’ve learned so much about video games and the art in them from your channel. Keep the videos coming. 👍🏻
First Also last GURDIAN is actually really good game for the people who hasn't played it I recommend 100 % now the parkour and puzzle will be a little hard but still it's a good experience
Heya! New to your channel, was literally just recommended your channel on my homepage, but your script and editing seems solid! Was surprised to see you weren’t a big creator, I wish you all the best and you got another subscriber 👍
@@WITAWITAVG I have many but a few that are pivotal to me are halo combat evolved, or halo 1-3, ODST, and reach. Half life black mesa and half life 2. Metal gear solid as a franchise, resident evil remakes, and a lot of jrpgs, and western rpgs. The two best RPG experiences I’ve had as an adult are Elden ring and Disco Elysium. Balders gate 3 is amazing too but I’m not finished yet.
man i saw this game like ages ago in some demo and since that day it stick somewhere in my mind but after a while, it faded away. i never got to finish it. i never felt to finish it.
If you've got some free time and patience for the things I mentioned in the video, this game can easily be beaten in 10-15 hours. It doesn't overstay its welcome! And the story is pretty awesome too.
Actually if you stare at Trico too long you will be told to move away so Trico can eat. The constant prompting of what buttons to press is annoying. While it's never been proven, I've played this game enough times that I can say with a certain amount of confidence that if you continuously keep Trico groomed, always heal his wounds, always pet him when he leans in for a face rub, Trico will listen to you much better than if you just ignore him. S.O.T.C. is still my favorite with "ICO" in 2nd place. So excited for Fumito Ueda's 4th game!
Hmmm. I didn’t even know about that little mechanic of him responding to you if you take better care of him! And yeah me too, anything Ueda does, I’m sold.
randomly got this video in my recommendeds, you did a great job! I will say on your last point though about so few people finishing the game, everytime I finish a game and I look at steam achievements and its actually similar numbers (20-30%) of people that actually got a finishing the game achievement, so it is in no way exclusive to just an unusual game like this. I just checked elden ring's ranni ending achievement (biggest game of lthe ast 2 years with one of the most popular chars from it) less than 28%, people just dont finish games it seems.
Hmmm interesting. I thought Elden Ring had a pretty high platinum trophy rate. I know most people don’t beat games, but I thought it’d be like around 30-40%. Such a shame!
I've played all 3 games but the last guardian absolutely destroyed me emotionally i personally rank it my favorite game of the trilogy ❤😁im actually crying watching this video the last guardian truly is a very special game to me ❤😪
i LOVED ico.. i bought it on ps2 back in the day when i was a teen.. but the last guardian was trash to me.. mostly due to the bad controls and bad camera.. there were also some issues with the graphics

Those ff8 and LOD in the background ❤️🔥, damn I just booted the last guardian to see where I was at I have 5 hours in with no trophies 🤯.

Never finished it because the AI became tedious in the later game. Sorry. Maybe I try again sometimes.
I reckon more would've finished that game had it released not just for the PS4.
i LOVED ico.. i bought it on ps2 back in the day when i was a teen.. but the last guardian was trash to me.. mostly due to the bad controls and bad camera.. there were also some issues with the graphics
That's to bad I'm sorry 😞 😔
Second!!!🎉.
