You might already have recorded the videos for the next few colossi, but if not, can you zoom in on Wander and show off his changes before the end?

Unfortunately to keep with the schedule we have already recorded the episodes, both of us are going on trips within the next few days and would not be able to record again for a while so we got them all done before we had to leave, sorry about that!

Chew on that... you overgrown son of a bitch.

I haven't been able to keep up with the LPs I've been following, or else I'd've said this sooner: gently caress Pelagia. This is the one colossus that stops me from finishing replays of the game, which sucks cause I generally like the colossi that come after him.

In this episode we take on the smallest Colossus, the very lion like Cenobia. Also be sure to watch till the end of the video as there is a funny outake from Ninja's run that I just had to show off.

Friends are what make testing worth it.
Cenobia is great, looks cool, the arena is cool (though a bit gimmicky) and he can seriously gently caress you up if you fall in front of him, which always brings some tension when i fight him.

Although he is very obviously a lion i always liked to think of him more as a dog because of his guardian role. Like, a beefy pitbull.

Looking forward to seeing the final 2, they caused me a lot of pain when i played the remake.

In this episode we take on the last of the "Troll" Colossi, the cleaver weilding Argus, which is my new least favorite colossus.

I loved the arena, I hated whoever designed the colossus fight. Who puts a sigil inside of a colossus’ hand!

Yeah, why would anyone ever look there?

Its hands are so human it's natural to think it would just crush you to a pulp if you went near them.

Yep, there's my least favorite Colossus. That loving sigil gives me nightmares.

Fun fact, last time i played this game i forgot that he punches the ground and you can go on the palm that way. I spent many minutes climbing down the whole arm with very careful jumps :downs: Now i'm watching your video and feeling like an idiot.

Did get it though, but seriously gently caress the hand sigil.

I think I could forgive most of this fight if they had just given some hint that the big stone platforms weren't static like the vast majority of the world.

Maybe have the player tip them over when they climbed up. They'd naturally try to run and grab onto the ledge to the next level but never be able to run fast enough before the slab moved back into place. That would be more than enough of a hint, I think.

The language of video games has advanced so much since this was first made. Assassin's Creed uses white blankets/guano for climbable surfaces. Unobtrusive, but quickly identifiable.

Or dormin couldve given more of a hint other than get up somewhere higher
