Lots of ppl find Ico and Shadow of the Colossus boring games, theyre very different and focus more in the art and emotional aspects of a game than the gameplay itself. I love those kinds of game, some ppl dont, to each theyre own. |
I am sorry, but i have to strongly disagree with that. The emotional bond is created through gameplay by how you interact with other characters. Ico with how he needed Yorda to solve puzzles and was resposible for her as well. SOTC with the bond between Wander and Agro and how Agro help you throughout the game to take down the giants.
There is emotion taken from the story, yes, but the cut-scenes are very few, in fact the story is minimalistic.
ICO and Shadow of the Colossus may be like 95% gameplay. Those games are far more about gameplay than story and are far, far away from being cinematic games/experiences a la Heavy Rain, Beyond, Walking Dead, Uncharted.
