My Girlfriend played through Shadow of the Colossus so she could finally learn the origins of the song I like to vacuum to. For years she's had to listen to me talk about this game and how much I love it, so it was long overdue that she played through it for herself. Hopefully, you'll find it as entertaining as I did!

The way she whistled for him and he didn't come and she's like I want my horse 😔😔😔😔
*her
😭
I just finished my first playthrough and did the same thing.
@@mesaplayer9636 I remember first playing back on PS2 doing the same.
She was basically all of us in that moment
Watching it right now, the image of Yuna vainly whistling at the end of FFX popped into my head :(
You didn't have to hit me so hard in the feels when she started crying :|
Ikr!
The awful silence after and her sobbing accompanied with the fruitless whistling was heart breaking. Like that couldn’t have been scripted any better than that. Ugh the feels :’(
She was genuinely heartbroken. So sad. :/
I remember tearing up at that point of the game as well.
I laughed so hard!
Not ashamed to admit that hearing her cry about Agro got me sniffling. Love that horse
she actually cried on agros "death" haha so cute and precious almost got me sniffing too haha
Her whistling for Agro after he fell is so cute and sad
I never even played the game an I had to fight back my tears :D
me seeing agro pretend die for like 16 times got me like skipping the scene everytime
I remember I kept trying to save her, thinking I just had to be faster, but no. Legit? I broke my controller and didn't touch the game for a month 😅 Love Agro. I'd always pet her if I couldn't take her with me somewhere
good news about killing the lizards: you don't have to, if you hit just their tail they will be able to run away, and you can still get your stamina upgrade
No way! It's crazy there's still things I'm learning about this game after all these years, nice tip! :)
loool. Reminds me of when a buddy was playing Minecraft and killing a bunch of sheep for wool, and his girlfriend was watching and giving him grief for killing the cute animals. You shoulda seen her face when I told them that you could craft shears to just take the wool without killing the sheep.
Wait you can do what!?
@@azidal3755 Two pieces of iron gives you shears, 4 and eight on the grid, you get like 2-4 pieces of wool can also be used to get tree leaves, tall grass, and vines on swamp trees
@@laharlkent I meant the lizard's. I know how to make shears. I've even purposely traded iron for emeralds to buy shears from a shepherd. Just to joke that I'm rich and can throw emerald around. Got a good iron farm/trading hall with a spruce tree cluster I keep planted outside. I keep it open to everyone but it made for a fun joke to do it once. But only once.
"I love you. I'll come back for you. Capiche?" So adorable.
"Well actually I'm going to get teleported so just meet me at the temple thing."
The first time you see the horse fall is always devastating.
The final hit that the whole thing might have been a mistake.
In the game I guess Agro survives but in real life when a horse breaks its leg its usually euthanised
Naw man, 17 years since I first played and every damn time its devastating.
I knew the horse survived but still cried when she started crying.
I was mad the horse lived, he controlled so horribly I spent most of my playthru joking about sending him to the glue factory... then when he finally did... he got ass pulled back.
@@billythenarwhal1579 That was the point. You didn't control Agro. You controlled *Wander*, controlling Agro.
Well that escalated quickly, hope she'll never feel loss like this ever again
You grow from it. Pain is life.
RDR2
@@brendamage8590
Once I found out the ending I never bothered to continue play the game anymore. Not gonna face it 😭
She will, just like everyone else
@@MidoriGa95 just buy a new horse and do it man
"Is this a sister? A lover? ... Someone who owns us money?"
Lmaoo!
That's the new true story of Shadow of the Colossus, Mono just owns us money. XD
It seems unironically interesting.
they couldn't convince miracle max to resurrect her, so the colossi get to die.
"No, no! I've sacrificed too much to die here... My fifty bucks... Give me my moneyyyyyy!!!"
Final thoughts of the protagonist as he is dragged to the pit.
"He always comes back" Beautiful
"is this why you named all of your horses agro?"
*me looking at my cat and my dog both named agro*
haha, thats silly.
Could you be less imaginative and more basic?
@@thelastmotelSubstantially so, as you've shown.
the whistle after he fell....so poetic. I've never cried during this scene until now and I have beaten this game countless times
The "my guiding moonlight" at 7:06 somehow made me so proud of her
Same. It felt good
the moment you said her main selling point was the horse my immediate reaction was "oh... oh no" like I knew agro came back in the credits but I remember that bridge scene ALL TOO WELL
The way she cried, I wanted to hug her! Lol ♡
One of m favourite games, glad she enjoyed it :)
Oh, man. This is one that's been on my list for YEARS.
Hearing Taryn cry was honestly kind of devastating. You did an utterly fantastic job with this one, and making it feel dramatic and potent. That dramatic final confrontation HIT.
With this one under your guys' belt, I can't help but wonder what would happen if you played The Last Guardian...
...Ah, another time. Really great work, guys. This one was super fun.
Thanks Kashino! This one was an absolute blast and I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
@@BoyMetGirl did you know that agro is a girl
@@BoyMetGirl PLEASE have her play TLG omg
That moment with Agro honest to God hit my soul, man. Her whistling for him drove that knife even deeper
The whistle? That was the final twist, I actually had to pause for a little. Bless her pure heart because that was hard to listen to
Even if its a game, for a moment, she experienced what may as well have been real loss to her
it’s not that deep lmfao. Bro wrote a synopsis.
@@ahiowehfiowjitemotionless freak
Way to ruin the moment
There is always that one guy that feels the need to comment something nobody asked for
I'm not sure that I've seen it anywhere in this footage, so just in case you guys aren't aware of it - if you unequip your weapon (ie you have just your hands selected) and you press Square while standing next to Agro, you will pet her - and this also works while you're riding her if you're standing still 😊
The button used to be Circle with the original controls, but it's been changed to Square in the remastered controls.
Is Agro female? :O
@@TheOneGreat There was some lingering confusion about that due to a mistranslation in the original game release. But yes, Fumito Ueda has confirmed she's a mare.
@@KillahMate
That must be a hell of a horse breed if a mare is the size of Agro, she's already at the point she'd weigh about one ton.
@@CruelestChris I always saw it as a way to subtly emphasize that the main character is still basically a boy, so young that his own horse dwarfs him - so they made the horse 'bigger than life'.
@@KillahMate
The theory I heard is that it's not actually his horse, but he did train her: he's from something like a tribe of horse nomads who train horses for knights like the ones accompanying Emon. Hence how skilled and confident he is with a bow compared to how clumsy he is with a sword, and how the horse clearly knows and respects him despite being big enough to destroy a car.
Was always wondering if you would cover this masterpiece. Was one of my favorite games 5 years ago, and is still one of my favorites now. Even if people still aren't entirely sure what is going on in the story past the fact that you are being manipulated by, something... At least they didn't kill the mystery by trying to answer every question you have like some games do. I'm glad you both got to experience this game, and it's ever mysterious story.
Totally agree, some things are best left a mystery :)
"The hardest boss was the camera" the mark of a true gamer... Slowly she will be consumed by desire to play
Oh also I don't know if you know there is a few fruits around the world that increase HP like the lizards
Also a few fruits that harm you
@@YoloMcCheesyisn’t it just one fruit that does that
@@dando541 idk anymore. I believe it was in the garden
@@dando541@YoloMcCheesy the fruits that reduce your max hp are those from the secret garden, also it's all of them.
You guys out did yourself on this one, good job. It felt like a whole journey
Dude, you have to get her to play the last guardian! It's by the same people that made shadow of the colossus, and has plenty of references from shadow of the colossus in it. She would LOVE trico! And she wouldn't have to hurt anything cute (other than removing spears, but that's besides the point).
This was both heartwarming and breaking to see, another good playthrough. Which makes me wonder when it's semi-sequel ICO would be covered
To be fair to Girlfriend... I cried my eyes out when Agro died, too. Cheered like hell when he came back. :)
1:59 Just to clarify, Bluepoint Games are the devs of the remake of SotC for PS4 (they don't change anything of the original game, just improve the graphics), but the og devs of ICO, SotC and The Last Guardian are Team ICO.
'is it a sister.... a lover..... SOMEONE WHO OWES US MONEY?"
How the hell did I never think of that last one?? XD
First time on this channel, she's a goddamn keeper!
I genuinely love the dynamic between you two - it's adorable. Also, Agro is a straight G
Wow, the absolute humanity in hearing her cry. "We hurt only as much as we love". I'll never see this game the same again. This video was beautiful. Thank you so very much.
I know I'm late. But that part with Agro had me very emotional. For the WHOLE game all you have is Agro. That horse is the only thing in land that supports you. It helped you beat several of the colossi. After awhile the game sorta gets you into viewing Agro as a comfort.
Only to rug pull you and makes you realize he was more than just a comfort he was a companion and friend.
Agro is best girl, amazing horse and one of the reasons I loved Shadow of the Colossus so much was just riding around with her thru the gorgeous areas, Blue Point's remake was so amazing.
Amazing as always! I have never played this game myself (PC gamer who hasn't bothered with play station porting), but I swear I've had to vicariously experience it through content creators like 4 times now xD.
Thanks oleg! Glad we could share in your experience :)
I loved that she understood everything about the game. She knew that the camera was the worst enemy when I've seen countless lashing out on Agro but she understood she was her best friend. Like literally you don't have to even manoeuver her lmao.
Then, the point that the girl we don't know wtf is she for the main character and we only know she's for some reason important to the MC. And then all the moral questions about killing the colossus. Perfect playthrough. Glad she enjoyed it and you also did watching her. GGs
Boy, you best have dispensed immediately with the hugs for that precious cinnamon roll when she lost her dang horse.
Awesome, What a gorgeous game! I love that you got her to play this, I hope y'all have a good day and thank you for the content.
I love the idea of Wander taking his lady friend to the forbidden lands to resurrect her because she owes him money and he really needs that money, lol.
My then ex-girlfriend played this (ps3 version), and she was almost the same reaction as this video. She loved horses, so that raised her bond with it; the scenery and music really captivated her and she would ask questions here and there about what to do or "what is this supposed to be" when encountering locations and colossi. Overall, she remarked that the game with its progressive storytelling, music, and environment is beautiful, challenging, and leaves you in shock and awe. It was a good experience (experiment now looking back at it) to show her some masterpieces of video games.
I Didn't expect a video of this masterpiece of a game, but I'm so glad that you two played it!
I can 100% relate to crying after Agro's "death". I don't think I've ever felt more personally attacked, angry and depressed after a digital animal supposedly died
I remember when my younger brother started this game, one of the first things my spectating mom and sister said was "That horse better not die!" XD
With how much your girlfriend gushed over Agro I was kinda waiting to see how she'd react to both the scene before the final boss and the credits scene. So, uh... should we tell her that a broken leg is usually a death sentence for horses?
Nah you can still take care of horse even with broken leg. Just don't ride her too much and she will fine
@@marshallsmith8106 that's not true whatsoever lol
i’m so happy people still go back to this amazing game! it’s a beautiful game with an amazing story and i love it so much
1:28 that little giggle tells you everything on how much she loves Agro cuz of how much she means to him. Get a girl like that gentlemen.
Man as soon as she started crying then I started crying lol, thanks for that. Love ya'll videos as always
YES SOTC! Ive found this Channel yesterday and TO SEE MY FAVORITE GAME AS THE NEWEST EPISODE IS JUST THE BEST YESS
Awesome!! :D
oh i have never played a second of this game, but i've now got an emotional connection with the horse. started crying when he came back at the end limping ;-;
Damn I was already going to cry from the nostalgia but then the thought of her reaction when she experiencing losing Agro was getting me there then seeing it again and then her crying oh man I was crying too. 😭 I know he comes back but that’s my fave game
i never played this game, and this is like the 2. video of u guys that i am watching but when she started to cry i got tears in my eyes
That Eeeee sound she makes us adorable. Kind of like a baby bunny.
So I knew Agro dying was gonna hit her hard. I was READY for her to cry. I was not ready, however, for her to try whistling for him. For some reason that made it 1000% sadder.
I started feeling so bad when she started crying 😢. Rest in Power Agro
This game is absolutely amazing!! It is very satisfying to see other people playing/enjoying a game I like. I'm happy that she had the opportunity to appreciate it.
Your Gf is a real gem lmao I love her commentary
How is no one talking about the Witcher 3 foreshadowing, I'm so hyped. It's my favorite game of all time. Can't wait to see it.
This game is so special to me, I played it on PS2 and loves it, it's the only game I played two times in a row, I rarely replay games (not including remakes) and I never do it immediately. And while watching this video I cried alongside your girlfriend for Agro. And yeah, all my horses are called Agro or Epona, since. I doubt a sequel will ever happen but I would love an extended version with more bosses. Oh, and btw I think the rides in the vast empty spaces are just as beautiful and necessary as the action moments, they complement each others and give you so much time to think about what's happening and question your motives. One of the best game ever.
2:00 - "How all the Bluepoint game's timelines are connected."
> Says Bluepoint Games, the guys who made the remake
> Not Team Ico, the team who actually made Shadow of the Colossus, Ico, and The Last Guardian.
You are fired from this fandom. Begone, foul monster!
That made me genuinely upset
I enjoy a lot seeing both your reactions to games I love, great videos!
10:12 I, sir, do not appreciate being brought to tears over this again. But it was nice to have someone to cry with.
I had to edit because I both laughed and cried when she whistled for him again😂😢😂
I'm so happy with the channel growth if anyone deserves it it is them
I would really love to see her play Ghost of Tsushima one day!! One of my all time favourite and you have a special bond with the horse there aswell ^^
“And how all the ‘Bluepoint games’ timelines are connected.” Excuse me? You mean how Team Ico/Gendesign games are connected.
i literally spent HOURS trying to defeat the final boss and falling over and over again (I knew how to do it, I just couldn't), I had to stop and watch the ending on youtube. I absolutely loved the game up to that point but the final boss made me instantly like it far less and remember it as an annoying game, but watching this video made me remember how much beautiful and amazing things there were before that point, so thank you I guess !
PS3 version?
It's borked
I knew Agro was going to be ok, but watching her whistle for him knowing that we won't come really hit me in the feels.
I haven't cried a single tear in over a year. But hearing her cry when Agro fell... It actually made me cry. Well played
Holy... your GF crying for Agro was heartwrenching. I am currently at work, letting this video play on the side for some ambience and now I am crying too T_T
You gotta do the other 2 games from the Team Ico/GenDesign trilogy now! Ico and The Last Guardian!
This was so fun to watch :)
Now I know what I sounded like when my son got me to play for the first time lol. Agro broke my heart! This game is incredible.
When she whistled for Agro after he had fallen....I almost shed a tear😢
I'm not ashamed to say I cried when Agro threw my character onto the other side of the bridge back when this was on PS2.
I’ve been waiting for this >:3
It’s always so fun to watch someone who doesn’t know this game like it’s their special child play it for the first time
I wasn't expecting to cut onions during this. WARN a guy, willya?
Lovely vid by two lovely people. Subbed.
man, imagine the waterworks she'll get from playing The Last Guardian lol
Love your videos! The WOOOO is so satisfying to hear after you beat a boss
Your videos are great as they are but what makes them even more special to me is that your play styles are so similar to mine and my boyfriend's. He's the gaming veteran who always cheers me on.
I don't even know how many times I've ugly cried over something during a game. 😭😂
Keep up the good work! ☺️
Here I thought I had an original comment. Then I find out I’m not the only 40 year old dude crying with her. And just when I regain composure she has to whistle. I even knew what was coming. I don’t how many times I reloaded my save trying to change that outcome.
Great channel. I’m gonna make my gf watch.
It's wild to see how other people handle games. I kind of wish I could get that sad for a lost companion in a video game story.
Brilliant. I cried when she cried. Part from laughter, but also part real tears. Great game, great video. Well done.
Her attachment to Agro makes me _really_ want to see her try Last Guardian
The way she whistle calling for Agro after he fell gave me PTSD for the final scene of Final Fantasy X with Yuna doing the very same (and me crying like there's no tomorrow).
your vacuuming playlist omg youall are precious
this is my favorite video of all time
Taryn needs to get an IRL horse community funded
its funny listening to this as I clean my tattoo of the vital spot. Also the whistle for Argo is heartbreaking!
What a game to recommend, amazing choice. Shadow of the Colossus and ICO are some of the most emotional games I've ever played by far.
Honestly, I prefer ICO because I'm not patient enough to just admire the sights, and the story of ICO is more relatable to me, but both are masterpieces.
This channel is a hidden gem wth love the content
This is a uniquely cool concept. We get your girlfriend's spontaneous reactions, with your commentary filling out the story.
BTW according to the designer of SOTC, Agro is a she.
Knock on wood of course, but this really does feel like I've caught a channel /just/ before it explodes. Every video's so fun!
When I'm watching your videos I think this is some kind of 10mil channel but some how you only have 30k super underrated hope you will get big soon
If she loves testing her relationship with a horse, you two should play RDR2 together 😂
Evil
Hey there bud, Satan just wanted to quickly let you know - he's a big fan!
She would be depressed for a few months at the very least after that lol
No not again!!! 😭😭
She definitely needs to play rdr2 just for the horse mechanics
I’ve only watched two of these videos but I’m pretty sure your girlfriend and I have the exact same taste & experience with playing games, except I’ve been gaming since ~2006. Cool to see someone else who also delighted in hunting down all of the lizards & exploring the huge empty beautiful landscape, outside of some major plot points those are my very favorite memories from my first playthrough :^)
I played the PS3 version but gave up. Last year I went back and got the Platinum trophy and this journey made me fell in love with this game. So much so that I played the gorgeous PS4 remake shortly after. Great game. Fantastic video!
Awesome video, love you guys!
The genuine joy in her voice when it turns out Agro survived the fall
My bf made me watch this with him and the feels! Im cryinggggggggggggg
Eco and Shadow Of the Colossus were my childhood.... That and the massive scream the PS2 did every time you turned it on.
As far as your girl crying when Agro dies I’ve been in a similar situation. My girl bawled her eyes out in Ghost of Tsushima when her horse died. I’m almost scared for her to be done with RDR2.
Also Ice cream was her coping tool as well.
If horse riding is something that Taryn enjoys doing then ghost of Tsushima is a game I’d recommend. She can even name it from the names suggested. Not to mention you can customize the colors of the saddle it wears. Oh and also the beautiful cinematic gameplay in my opinion.
Bro, I'm a grown ass man...
I played that game 16 years ago.
I cried when she saw her Agro died... I literally couldn't hold myself together...
Beautiful game, awesome vid and very well put together.
I do love riding around in the world in this game in between each colossus. My first impression was I was riding through the fields of Rohan and Gondor in Middle-Earth, the landscape just felt like it could have fit in that world.
It's pretty much the one game where an empty open world actually works
i love these videos! ^^
other good games i would want to see these videos on are portal, celeste, hades, bioshock, halo and metroid.
(plus, the yt-chanel 'razbuten' did something similar with their significant other. maybe a colab of a coop game could be fun?)
You should make her play Journey. I think she would love that game because just like Sotc the game simply looks beautiful and the story is also mysterious.
Her reaction to Agro falling made me tear up too, that was devastating to watch.
Good thing you didnt tell her that if she hits the lizard in the tail they drop it and run away.
