A reference to Shrek 2 might not be one you expected to read here, but think back to the Holding out for a Hero scene starring Mongo, the giant gingerbread man, then imagine it reworked time and time again over the course of a perfectly sized quest, albeit with a massive Rat Dog Bird in place of the delicious oversized anthropomorphic treat.
THE LAST GUARDIAN GAMEPLAY DEMO FULL
The Last Guardian is full of incredible, heart-warming/wrenching moments, made possible by one of the most believable virtual characters ever created. He’s like an older brother, previously thought to be a bit of a dick, who shows up behind you just as you’re about to be cornered by a group of school bullies. Trico feels like he’s been infused with the DNA of Agro and Yorda, making him courageous and loyal, yet also in need of a lot of guidance. Although easily comparable to AAA’s Ico, what with numerous brick fortresses to clamber around and an NPC to adventure with, there’s a definite echo of Shadow of the Colossus thanks to the time you’ll spend climbing up Trico – who, while not as large as that game’s most towering foes, is an imposing figure whenever you unexpectedly catch a glimpse of him. I expect The Last Guardian to be one of the most divisive games ever released. Yet for some, he might be the reason to give up on The Last Guardian. He is amazing, emotionally nuanced, loving, brave, and a real friend.
Your in-game companion/multi-tool, Trico, you see, a giant mythical creature (or the Rat Dog Bird), is the best NPC I’ve ever encountered in a video game. But it’s perhaps also the most frustrating. It’s one of the most beautiful, memorable, touching, thrilling, and dramatic games ever made. I’ve shouted at Trico so many times that any onlookers might reasonably have discerned that The Last Guardian is a voice-operated game.
