The Last Guardian – CG Cinematic Trailer

Considering Toriko is quite stubborn and sometimes you need to call repeatedly to make it move i think many will consider that a waste of time.

Will be worth it still.


Literally all this achieves is to create a point of comparison that the game falls just short of. Why not just use the real graphics with a cinematic camera?

I don't see why not. Most CG trailers don't represent games visuals.

Man they really need to move past that one area. It has been the only thing in every single one of their trailers and marketing items. I get not wanting to spoil certain things but after 10 years I am already sick of it.
 
The kid looks out of place compared to the environment and the creature/soldiers. Why does he have such a different shading style?

That's what happens when you're a "main character" in life compared to an NPC. C'est la vie.

I prefer this way. It is probably not a very long game, so I dont want anything spoiled too much and I know I am weak to new footage so...

This is for general audiences, especially by putting it in front of Fantastic Beasts in theaters. They're trying to attract people who have never really paid attention to the game or forgot about it or didn't know about it what so ever. I think they did a good job as it portrays the basic premise of the game and kept the graphical style even if it is CG.

Theory:

The kid is a ghost, which is why he's lit differently.
His purpose is to lead Trico through the game and away from danger.
The kid is The Last Guardian (of Trico).

There, now they've subverted both the implication of the title and the expected ending that Trico dies.
 
I cant believe this game is just a few weeks away from getting released, I have a feeling its gonna be an emotional ride.

It turns out its all a dream of Nathan Drake's at the very end.

Or Trico species actually very danger to human being, the castle locking them behind actually the last guardian. The boy is a sacrifical offering to feed trico.
The Japanese title mean giant man-eating Trico after all.

LOVE IT

Well, a human being sacrificed is a thing in both ICO and SoTC , so that wouldn't surprise me.

maybe villagers put a thing in the boy's drink before the event of the game and they sent him to the ruins.
 
That CG trailer is just so off-putting - like a cheap straight-to-DVD animation promo. The actual fucking gameplay trailer has more magic and nuance than this rubbish.

Yeah I prefer how the game looks too over all. I don't like the colors in the CG. Even teh animations are much inferior than the ones in the game.

Indeed the actual game looks so much better!
Ad is cool neverthless and it will increase the awereness about the game.
 
When he touches Trico's face, I got chills. I think that despite its roughness around the edges, this will be a GOTY contender for me.

You just know there are going to be a lot of little intimate moments like that. The game is going to make you slowly grow attached to the creature. It's going to make the frustration from its stubbornness in the beginning worth it.

Just wait till the scene where Trico takes a giant dump and the boy has to get rid of turds as big as he is.
