why not?

>>380954018

yes I want a sequel

It probably will get a sequel if the remake sells

umm theyre making it for PS4???

>>380954291
>wanting 48 boss fights in a row
16 was a fine number

>>380954291
It still urks me that they are doing a remake and they are not even putting in the colossi that were cut very late in development.

If any game needed some of its cut content put back in, Shadow of the Colossus was it.

>>380954018
Maybe a spiritual sequel

>>380954391
but who is going to be the art director and the content creator? Bluepoint is a company that only works in remakes/remasters
Sony of Japan has other projects and the creator of the game left Sony

They should have made another monster climbing game the guardian was fucking garbage they struck gold with SOTC

>>380953648
Good. being honest I bet it wouldn't be as good. Ueda isn't the market to look for a consistent series, he should stick to making one off unique experiences. It's why a lot of people felt disapointed with TLG, it's a mix of the two but not it's own thing. It's a shame considering how much work they put into Trico, but it had difficulty establishing an identity of it's own to make up for it's short comings like Ico and SoTC did

And thank fucking god for that.
It's like asking for a sequel to Children of Men, or Pathologic or Crime and Punishment.
It's self-fucking-sustained fucking story. And fucking SAD that our culture has actually apparently completely failed to teach people to appreciate that.

Why the FUCK do we need to sequel mill everything? Not every story is suited to be episodic. In fact most of them aren't: not the good ones usually. It's kinda terrifying how people cling to this idea of "we want more of the same", regardless of what made the original thing good in the first place.

>>380953648
Stop complaining and go buy the same game with better lightning at full price like a good goy

the story there is irrelevant and you can easily make a sequel using an alternative timeline or something

>>380953648
So I heard that the PS3 HD remaster really fucked up the game, can someone explain to me how?

>>380954936
false
don't fall for /v/ memes. The PS2 version is 15~20fps and using an emulator only speeds up that mess it doesn't make anything more accurate

I work in a kindergarten, and often tell stories and adventures to the kids during lunch or right before they are gonna take a nap. Some time ago I started telling them the story from "Shadow of The Colossus" and they absolutely loved it. Since the game is so minimalistic I try not to do too much exposition and it really gets the kids asking. "Why is the girl dead? Maybe the Colossus killed her". "What happens to the boy after defeating a Colossus? Does he die? And how does he end up back in the castle" etc. and it's wonderful witnessing them asking these questions among themselves. Especially when they are debating wether it's okay that the boy is killing all the Colossus. I always reply to the questions with vague answers like "I don't know. Maybe the colossus are evil, maybe not. What do you think?". I split the story up in several parts so I tell one colossus-fight at a time, so that the kids can keep the concentration. I really recommend you try and tell your niece, nephew or kids stories from the game. I think there is a lot to learn from the story and it's something that really will get their imagination going. Do it, I'm sure they'll love it :)

>>380955006
>>380955064
I looked it up, apparently it has something to do with grip? I also played the PS3 version, but only the PS3 version so I can't do a personal comparison

>>380954557
This. Can't believe 10 years later and nobody still hasn't tried to create a similar boss-fighting experience.

>>380955447
It's grip. Wander's grip strength was apparently related to FPS somehow, so when that got improved for the PS3 version, it somehow meant that Wander had a much tougher time holding on to Colossi.

>>380955470
>We meme Ueda to join Bluepoint games and Sony Japan studio to create another Shadow of the Colossus experience

they know they can't compete with Shadow, and even if they did get close it'd be panned as a clone

>>380954515
Japan studio is great, I'm sure they could supervise Bluepoint games. Remember, like at least 5 or so Colossi were pretty much finished already so no new art or AI or mechanics would be needed for those. Just a bit of remaking it like they're doing with others. They all had their locations set up already as well.

They did though you fucking retard
I heard nothing about this game after its release, did it suck ass?

>>380955161
You actually think that by putting "muh" in front of random words you are making a point?
Well, you kinda are, just not the one you think you are.

Let's just go back to what you have said here. First of all:
"It's not an experience"
Let that sink for a minute. Apparently, you don't experience Shadow of Colossus when you are playing it. Your brain apparently wasn't registering it. Interesting, and kinda confirms my theory that you might have a serious clinical problem: but that is actually just you. You are seriously, probably physiologically broken if you think that SotC is not an experience. To a non-damaged person, it's impossible for it not to be an experience.

And also, apparently, you seem to think that sequels aren't continuations of the same story or narrative.
Which interesting because here are some basic public definitions of the word "Sequel":
>a published, broadcast, or recorded work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one.
>a literary work, movie, etc., that is complete in itself but continues the narrative of a preceding work.
>a literary, cinematic, or televised work continuing the course of a story begun in a preceding one
>a book, film, play etc that continues the story of an earlier one
Taken from Merriam-Webster, Oxford, Macmillian, Cambringe and other dictionaries.

Third: you seem to not be aware that it's the actual narrative and experience for which Shadow Of Colossus is universally most commonly praised, and this has been true since it's release. Just do your basic googling through reviews if you want some sources on that.

What I'm saying is that the blind regurgitation of buzzphrases that literally have no meaning around here has literally rendered you retarded. And you should probably start doing something about it, because this is inexcusable for an actual adult human being. You are an idiot - in the most purely clinical, medical way.
It's curable, but it will require a lot of effort on your side.

>>380955470
>This. Can't believe 10 years later and nobody still hasn't tried to create a similar boss-fighting experience.
Mostly because it isn't as good and simple idea as it seems.
We are getting the Prey for the Gods thing that has recently renamed itself. I throughly expect it to not be very good, but we'll see.

>>380955784
It's basically ICO, so if you didn't like that game you definitely dislike TLG. combine that with actual animal behavior and it turned people off immensely. It doesn't help it forces the player in a position weaker than Trico

I loved every moment of it

>>380955906
>>380955470
People don't understand why SotC was great. The mechanics and everything was built on climbing and killing colossi. In other games it's replaced by QTEs. Even Prey for the gods has QTE and grappling hook and fucking crafting.

>>380956109
I don't need a new game, I would be happy if they just include the cut out ones that were done.

>>380956109
>I'm not reading that wall of tumblr "let me educate you xD" text
>You have mental problems, fuck off.
Oh the fucking painful irony.

But at least you have the guts to admit that you lost the argument, so I guess that is some good sign. Well, best of luck to you, you sure as fuck will be needing it.

>>380956126
>The mechanics and everything was built on climbing and killing colossi.
Not really. SotC had plenty of their own QTE's and Prey is based around climbing and killing the giant monsters - that is really not the problem. The bigger problem is that what made SotC good was incredibly well tied and management narrative aspect with just incredible attention to detail and fine-tuning of the mechanics that together made the experience feel meaningful and involving at every point.
I can assure that extracting the mechanics only would make the game much more boring: extracting the mechanics only and THEN disturbing the fine tuning is going to me it probably more frustrating or boring than anything else.

I don't know saying this needs a sequel feels like saying a classic painting or something like King kong needs a sequel adaptation. The world building is one of the things that made this game so unique and a sequel would just come across as a lifeless imitator

>>380956851

>The world building

You mean the world being fucking empty aside from the bosses itself which are the focal point and only reason the game even exists or were you referring to the pointless religious mooks who exist purely to remind us that our FF-reject MC is a dumb cunt who acts purely on impulse?

I love the game but come on now, the reason it is so universally loved is it chose to do very few, developed and meaningful battles as opposed to many, pointless enemies. The constant backtracking, lore tidbits and traveling are not the reasons people remember SotC. It's the design of the monsters, the combat itself, and the soundtrack. Everything else could be thrown out the window. Fuck, if you knew about the development you would realize everything else WAS thrown out the window.

it's not happening, Yoshida even said so

SotC doesn't need any changes or new colossi and anyone who says it should have those things is setting themselves up to be disappointed. That is unfortunate too, because its an excellent title.

If you want a game like SotC, that isn't SotC, go make one.

>>380962013

>>380954670
>It's why a lot of people felt disapointed with TLG
I dont know a single person who loves Ueda games and felt disappointed by TLG, probably because it would contradictory considering TLG is very much the same as ICO. Also speak for yourself, TLG was everything I expected it to be, which was a better ICO.

anyone else though the remake looks lame somehow?

>>380956205
people worry it would take away from the original colossi, but they forget how shit somelike the fire stick small one was and the giant water turtle

>>380962813
It's just the same shit but with more clean textures, same with crash remake.
It is very similar yet missing simple stuff like various post processing effects etc.

No new content.
No buy.
I just re-beat it on PS3 not long ago

>>380953648

Are they gonna make changes to the soundtrack?

>>380953648
Instead of making a sequel (which would make no fuckins sense story-wise) how about a remake with all the scrapped collosi on PC with 2017 graphics 120 fps. GOTY guaranteed.

>>380954018

Then what's ICO?

>>380953648
Why is shadow of the colossus the most overrated game of all time?
It wasn't that good.

>>380965087
I don't know, why is it overrated?

>>380963750
not a sequel.
Shadow of the Colossus is a prequel to ICO, not the same thing.

Also, what people are proposing is a literal Shadow of the Colossus 2, where you just fight a the colossi... again.

>>380967610
What about a game where u are the colossi??

>>380967686
You do become a Colossus at the end though. Okay, it's not a very long sequence and you can barely control its movement, but still.

>>380953648
>On one hand I would really love to see a worthy sequel
>On the other, if there is a game that definitely doesn't deserve to be changed into a milked cashgrabbing franchise it's definitely this one and even a single sequel could potentially ruin how artistic and unique it feels
I really can't make up my mind about this one.

>>380967876
NO WAY.

>>380956668
I can't decide whether this sounds like shit or good.
I would give it as long as they would keep the unreal, dreamy atmosphere that Forbidden Lands had.

>>380962813
Me, kind of. I mean, it looks good, but for me the best thing about SotC atmosphere was how unreal everything felt. As if the whole Forbidden Lands were just a part of some weird dream or an illusion, separated form the "normal" world. The realistic grass and stuff kind of ruins this feeling for me.
