Shadow of the Colossus | First Playthrough

So I recently purchased the 2018 remaster of Shadow of the Colossus. I have never played the game and besides a few Game Grumps clips and some concept artwork I know next to nothing about the game. I thought I’d give it a try.

What I do know-

It’s about this guy who is trying to resurrect his girlfriend? sister? totally platonic female friend? by killing enormous beasts.

I have seen Agro’s fate... and frankly that’s a good thing. As someone who has lost a horse it is probably for the best I don’t subject myself to that sort of pain again without warning.

The music is fantastic. I’ve listened to the soundtrack before and I look forward to having context for it now.

I’m notoriously bad a platformers despite my love for them. I’m aware the controls are a bit wonky but if they are anything like The Last Guardian, I should be fine. I really enjoyed that game.

Here we go!

Adjust brightness!? There aren’t any jump scares in this, right?

First off, this intro is gorgeous.

Is this bird following us important?

Woah, that is one long guardrail-less death bridge if I ever saw one.

Oooh photomode!

Agro, Voice of Reason, Conqueror of Many Stairs

Dramatic corpse blanket removal

SPOOKY SMOKE PEOPLE

MAGIC SWORD

Dormin, I’ve come to bargain

I am but a mere mortal before you skylight gods! Please fix my lady friend

Uh Dormin, one of your voices is starting a bit early. (I’m calling her Carol)

DAMNIT CAROL! Get it together!!

Alright have my mission! Murder living idol knockoffs, got it.

First Colossus

My sword is a laser pointer!

I preceded to press triangle and yell AGRO a bunch of times before finally getting on the horse

Agro is unamused I’m sure.

Best advice I think on the camera controls is to just let the camera do what it wants

Ok so it says to jump, and grab that ledge? No

*2 minutes later* OH... there are plants here to climb

Ooh cut scene

Hard to believe this game was even possible on the PS2. I mean that’s a huge fully rigged and animated character that you can climb and interact with. Crazy!

Running, running, running

Must climb leg hair to glowy tattoo

WOAH AAHH ITS SHAKING ME OFF

and I got stepped on

Ooooh gotcha, stab stab stab

I did it!!

AAHH SMOKE IS CHASING ME

Did the smoke just stab me?!

And I’m dead

Light at the end of the tunnel? Is someone crying?

Wait how did I get back here?! What about Agro?

Uhh, spooky smoke guy

I’m good, and the statue crumbled... progress

Onwards!!

Second Colossus

Agro is back!

Oh pray to regain health at the glowing statue, cool

Do I smack it with my sword?

Don’t think that worked...

Nearly rode Agro off a cliff

Don’t laser pointer sword and drive

Earthquake!!

Agro, we are here

Woah giant bull, with an awesome unibrow

NO! IT STEPPED ON AGRO

Agro’s fine

Gotta use my arrowssss

Oh I’m terrible at this

Oof I feel bad shooting it

Wait... where are the glow tattoos!?

Hold up what? What now?

I fell off...

Oh hi Agro!

Dormin that’s not a helpful tip! DAMNIT CAROL!!

Oooh... Gotta switch to the sword. Oops

The sound design is phenomenal, so cool. 100% suggest you play with headphones

I did it! Aw but I feel bad though

Agro, save me from the smoke!

Aaah no I’m dead again

And we’re back... TWO SMOKY GUYS

Everyone I kill is going to return as a sad, smoky guy huh?

What’s next Dormin?

Third Colossus

Still don’t know how to use this praying stone thing

This map feels massive

Aww, Agro can’t swim... sad face

Oh no there is a dive mechanic... is there an underwater colossus? Oh boy

Running up this bridge thing

And... I missed the jump

Swim of shame

I’m back, gotta be careful this time

Damnit... swim of shame again

Careful...

*angry swimming*

Ok... ok.. not that hard just get close to the edge

And I fell...

*several attempts later*

I don’t know what I did right that time but that victory may be more satisfying than murdering this giant

OH It squashed me

Took me far too long to notice the metal platform in the middle

I DID IT! Yeah that jump was the hardest part of this haha

HAHAHA I did a beautiful swan dive from the top in the cut scene

And we’re back

3 smoky dudes - check

Welp, I’m gonna pause here. Until next time!

Female Team Fortress 2 Classes Were Almost Official

Valve artist Drew Wolf has released a new website, which contains a variety of concept artwork from Valve games such as Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2. One of these sets of concept art found on his website were numerous designs for female TF2 classes.

An internal pitch project aimed to bring female characters to the cast of Team Fortress 2.

I was responsible for story, character development and visual design. With the exception of their class function, It was important that each design presented an entirely new character. I wanted to these characters to live on their own and add dimension to the current roster of in-game characters. The goal of the project was to dive deep into possibilities and facilitate creative discussion.
