    You’re correct on Fumito Ueda being very picky when it comes to recruitment. About 500 developers applied for shadow of the colossus, and only 5 were picked. And only 1 out of the 5 met Ueda’s expectations

      Yeah it's not surprising. A good amount of these smaller companies with potential limited resources/not wanting to hire like crazy & that want to sustain a certain company culture do have to find the right person to join.

    The latest italian PSM issue (the 5th, July/August 2024) features a recent Fumito Ueda interview. He doesn't talk about the hypothetical new game, but part of the introduction reads "After leaving Japan Studio, Fumito Ueda founded the independent studio genDESIGN which, in the upcoming months, will present us with something that could rewrite the rules of video games yet again, and make our favorite hobby even more similar to a work of art of inestimable value". While I don't think the 'upcoming months' bit can be taken literally, it still made me very happy. I translated the entire interview as best as I could on my Tumblr, I can link it if anyone is interested!

    I’d love a remake of Ico from Bluepoint Games at some point. High unlikely, but a person can Dream right? I think the game needs more recognition and also updated graphics and allowed more to experience it. It’s not as big as SOTC, but it definitely feels more in line with The Last Guardian which was also praised thus it needs to get ported onto PS5 with a from the ground up remake similar to SOTC 2018 and maybe add some extra features like extra modes or something to make it more worth a 40-50$ price and reason to get remade as it’s a relatively short game compared to Shadow & Guardian. Like a equivalent to those time trial modes from SOTC and some extra areas to explore in the castle and many other possibilities. Ico definitely at some point needs to get a re release of some kind. As long as it’s good and untampered with on its fundamental level and is exactly the way it was from its original release in design but updated for this generation.

    Great video! Your content is actually super underrated!
    I’m not sure about a “space game” for the next title, but I think it is extremely likely we will see some kind of mech playing into this game. Especially since some of the other teaser images they’ve share definitely have some sort of Mech design present. I don’t remember where I saw this, but apparently Ueda does have interest in making another massive world like what is in Shadow of the Colossus, so I’d love to see something like that.

      Really apreciate it!
      Yeah tbh I really hope that's the case! Personally I would rather like to see something along the lines of SotC with a big world and not a space game yeah. I do wonder if we might see some elements of it, maybe some missions might involve going to space?
      Godam it Ueda we need moar!

    Is it just me, or does it totally make sense that Fumito Ueda would be a fan of Half-Life 2? I'm not a huge fan of FPS, but Half-Life 2 was on another level.

    I thought this would be another fantasy game with the same style as Ico, SOTC, and TLG. Unless if this a space fantasy game and the art style is still the same IDK. 🤷‍♂️ I honestly thought it would be a more high fantasy type.

      @ParkerCS2 Take what I say with a grain of salt. it's all speculation. I do think we might see a departure from the universe created in those 3 games. Even if Fumito Ueda wanted, he might have legal issues since the games are owned by Sony
