Perhaps. We got this hint since even with all of their work they could not find this secret. You would have figured that a golden object that could be found in hidden spots on the map would have been an important secret, but they were too focused on the puzzle. The real question is still what is the sword's purpose? Who is to say they did not give this hint so they can finally unlock the next puzzle. It could be a chain of puzzles to unlock the final secret. Time to play for another 10 years. Just because the one guy used an emulator to walk through the ground does not mean it may not be there. Who is to say it does not appear after you get there and not be already present.
SoulSc0rcher I think it did and I clearly remember using a double and quad materia on the knights making that already incredibly long animation runs eight times, but I also remember I talked to my brother in law next to me that lets figure out what is left of the game, and there was only the last boss and the weapons, there wasnt anywhere anymore to explore in the world when you did the minimum to the the golden chocobo that was left when gou finally got it... the game is still awesome though...
at 1:16 in the video a detail i love after getting the dormin sword is if you listen carefully you can hear dormin chuckle...it makes me think of the ben drowned creepypasta line "you shouldn't have done that" because now you dont know what you've done...you've killed all 16 collosi and gathered all 79 tokens of enlightenment...and all for what?.....power...more power. dormin played you like you were his puppet. fuck i love this game!!! edit: another small detail is dormin saying something along the lines of "ekoneiw" wich is what i think he said while the subtitles said " arisen anew" wich just shows how bad the situation has become...he has arisen anew thanks to your handywork...
You're saying that as if they're taking credit for finding the thing. I think IGN is fucking horrible but nowhere on this video does it say they're taking credit for finding it first.
@@T-74 i mean, it is DORMIN's sword, the one bloody being that talks to us through what is basically an unholy whisper, so yeah... it was probably just the damn cursed sword that whispered to us "hey let's kill these folks and we will revive your dead... whatever she is (but you know, instead i want to finally be set free from this darn thing so that i can roam the lands again and wreak a bit of havoc)"
I'm sure you're already aware, but I'll explain anyways. The theory goes that Dormin's female entity possesses Mono and thus she is alive again. I'm sure you were just pointing it out because you already knew, but I figured I'd explain just in case.
Buster it’s a theory, a pretty interesting one but that in no way means someone already knows about. Heck, this is the first I’ve heard of that theory.
Grunge gopher 67 I mean I've owned a copy and completed multiple play-throughs of each version since it's first release over a decade ago and that's the first I've heard of this theory too
Simple Cat then you don’t follow the game closely or watch nomad colossus probably,not being mean or anything but it’s a well known theory in the SotC community
Almost sounds like " you Must Hold That" or " You must Go Back". The place was obviously made for larger people, even the giant of old that might have been people well over 10 feet tall. Evrything in game was large including the guardian creatures. NEat.
It actually would have been cool if they added more to the story to where if you kill the colossi with that sword, there would be a secret ending in which both of the main characters live, providing an alternative ending to commend those who went through all the trouble of fining the coins.
Just got the sword... not worth it. The sword SLOWS health regeneration and does about the same damage as the queen sword! Why did nobody tell me?? O_o
There's got to be something extra the sword does. As you said, we already have the Queen's Sword as well as a mask that both make killing a colossi very easy. So now we just have to figure out what extra ability or secret Dormin's Sword will reveal. As well as the goat paintings. lol
Perhaps its some kind of meta-narrative about claiming a cursed item that destroys you from the inside. Similar to the fruits in the secret garden area.
That could be. But I doubt those at Bluepoint would go to all the trouble of programming in those coins just for a sword that won't do anything except destroy you from the inside. We already witnessed that just from taking out the 16 colossi. There is something more going on.
I think it will reveal a way up to the higher parts of the temple or maybe....just maybe a secret colossi that will be unlocked somewhere on the map. There is no way Bluepoint is going to go through all that trouble just for ( another ) sword that quick kills.
I remember playing this game on ps2 and being scared shitless by the water serpent after that my interest in the game rose so much it's crazy to think they actually gave us the secret we wanted thanku ascadia and nomad 2of the realest nggas ever thank yall for starting sum cause it had a good ass ending
1:34 Nothing could possibly described the assuredly countless players of SOTC collective disappointment of this secret finally becoming reality after so much searching, as the slow, almost pure, unbounded disappointed looking walk down the small step at this moment
I believed those who developed this game is a crap joke.. The game itself is a beauty but man, players deserve more than this shit piece of reward... Back from ps2 to this remake and after countless efforts by the faithful players to uncover the final secret they only decided to add a 'secret sword'? And only in remastered version? You are wastin our time...
The link in the description leads to the locations of all 79 coins that unlock the sword, and you can view the video locations here - ruclips.net/video/svvhXjoOEzs/видео.html
then you probably didn't have the 79 relics scattered around... Been trying to find a way to glitch in there, but the devs have expended quite some effort for you not to cheat your way in there...
Dojo Games You can get it at the end of your 2nd playthrough at the earliest. 40 Lizard Tails will give yoy enough stamina to reach the garden area and get 4 of the enlightenments.
1 playthrough is enough technically; Fastest way and still have it have some use; - Finish the game on normal & beat normal time attack. Try to get all the relics that you are able to get on this playthrough as well, if you miss any colossus related, you'll have to do another playthrough.( Check a guide before going to colossus 16, missed relics can be gathered in reminiscence mode as well) - Start a game on hard+ and play hard time attack, until you have the cloack of desperation. (you don't need to finish a hard playthrough to do the time attack). This will be the hardest part. - Start a game on Easy+ and finish colossus 1 & 2 asap; took me around 7 minutes to do so. - quit the game, start a new easy+ on the save where you beat 1& 2 and beat them again Repeat this process until the stamina bar is enough for you to climb to the secret garden. Now you can get the hard to get relics. This is WAY faster than hunting lizards and the stamina you get from each colossus keeps carrying over. Keep in mind that every time you start a new+ game, you use your last save for everything to carry over. This way, I only had to do 2 playthroughs to get Platinum, and finish a hard+ playthrough with the Dormin Sword while doing so.
Would have been cool if they added the 8 scrapped colossus as a side quest or something. I mean they remade the game, there could have been possibility to do so.
I just got done playing it and holy shit it's amazing. This game looks so damn beautiful compared to the original PS2 release, and apparently there's some optional shit to do around the world map as well.
you mean harpoon of thunder go to map press triangle Item menu go down to harpoon of thunder then you will see how many colossus you have to defeat in normal time attack mode to get it
OKAY BUT WHAT IF YOURE SUPPOSED TO FIND ALL 79 BEFORE KILLING ANY COLOSSI AND ONLY HAVE THAT EQUIPPED when you start the new game cuz dormin recognizes your sword and says its possible to revive with it. What if it causes different dialogue?
@@RIPJeffreyEpstein- I do not care about tje graphics. I need to feel the plot of a game. Whether you call PS2 dead, it is still alive in my heart. It is the best selling console of all-time.

Thanks Nomad, and all the secret seekers who love this game
"79 steps to enlightenment."
Secret seekers:HOLD UP
Who is here after they learn about Shadows Last Great Secrets?
Aye
i bought and played the game after lol
Yeet
Just finished watching it
Whoa bro same😀
I'm glad the remake devs did this.
They gave us our Last Big Thing.
It's all we wanted, one last secret. Took 14 years, but we got it.
Nice

How dare you disrespect Nomad Colossus!

This was so much fun...ahh the days when the gaming forums were not toxic or at least way less toxic and people actually helped each other
The laugh at 1:32 sounds so menacing
The Calamity I didn't even notice that
Well, it`s Dormin.
is this a jojo reference
Maybe the dormin sword hides another secret?
Aw, shit. Here we go again
We'll be back after these messages

I think the farthest one should go with this is beating the game with that sword once but anything further would be a huge waste of time
Thirteen years later
PS7: launchs shadow of the colosus remake in 16K whit the 24 colossi and a new secret, the lightsaber from ICO...
i cant believe 15 years later i finally unlocked all hard mode items and now the new Dormin sword, that shows you how well this game was made
The secret seekers have been vindicated
Would've been nice if they added the beta colossi
Lloyd Pastrana YESSSS
is this a golden chocobo?
meaning once you unlock it there is nothing left to do with it?
Nelson Baietti yes, pretty much
You can do a new game+ and redo the colossus fights but yeah pretty much
Didn't the golden chocobo allow you to travel to the island only accessible by a gold chocobo to get the Knights of the Round materia??
SoulSc0rcher it's metaphorical meaning that once you get it there's nothing to do with it except for endgame stuff
SoulSc0rcher I think it did and I clearly remember using a double and quad materia on the knights making that already incredibly long animation runs eight times, but I also remember I talked to my brother in law next to me that lets figure out what is left of the game, and there was only the last boss and the weapons, there wasnt anywhere anymore to explore in the world when you did the minimum to the the golden chocobo that was left when gou finally got it... the game is still awesome though...

Well that seals it, the black shadowy sword is the most powerful form? Main character is the villan
Killing 16 innocent creatures which puts together the pieces of an evil diety for the selfish act of bringing back a loved one didn't seal it for you?
Dormin’s ominous laugh 😳
Looking at the sword, it has rune markings on it. I wonder if they mean anything or are just a design choice.
Sir Belmont they do mean something although it's unknown
They say "Sword of Dormin" in the language from Ico
@@justinbean971 icohsian
People say Nomad but without Ascadia none of this would be possible.
Give credit to who found it. And also why did you spoil tge secret without atleast showing how to get it first.
Description
You're saying that as if they're taking credit for finding the thing. I think IGN is fucking horrible but nowhere on this video does it say they're taking credit for finding it first.
What would happen if you took the sword of dormin to the secret garden?
Jack's shit
I think that sword is the one who always whispering how to defeat the colossus all the time
No quiet we aren’t doing this again
@@T-74 i mean, it is DORMIN's sword, the one bloody being that talks to us through what is basically an unholy whisper, so yeah... it was probably just the damn cursed sword that whispered to us "hey let's kill these folks and we will revive your dead... whatever she is (but you know, instead i want to finally be set free from this darn thing so that i can roam the lands again and wreak a bit of havoc)"
Thank you, Nomad.
Thank you, ascadia
The real question is why isn’t Dormin’s voice translated?
don't forget that there's a secret ending if you find all the goat symbols with the sword of dormin
Lies
I really hope there is another secret with dormin's sword
They don't make them like that anymore. This game was amazing.
Only Dormin's male voice...??
I'm sure you're already aware, but I'll explain anyways. The theory goes that Dormin's female entity possesses Mono and thus she is alive again. I'm sure you were just pointing it out because you already knew, but I figured I'd explain just in case.
Buster it’s a theory, a pretty interesting one but that in no way means someone already knows about. Heck, this is the first I’ve heard of that theory.
SomeguycalledSmithy anyone who follows the game should know about this theory tbh
Grunge gopher 67 I mean I've owned a copy and completed multiple play-throughs of each version since it's first release over a decade ago and that's the first I've heard of this theory too
Simple Cat then you don’t follow the game closely or watch nomad colossus probably,not being mean or anything but it’s a well known theory in the SotC community
Too bad the camera and the controls were so terrible the game quickly became annoying and uninteresting.
Almost sounds like " you Must Hold That" or " You must Go Back". The place was obviously made for larger people, even the giant of old that might have been people well over 10 feet tall. Evrything in game was large including the guardian creatures. NEat.
Does it make you the 17th colossus?
Well...that sword has an eye in the grip.
Ascadia has blessed us with a sick ass sword!
It actually would have been cool if they added more to the story to where if you kill the colossi with that sword, there would be a secret ending in which both of the main characters live, providing an alternative ending to commend those who went through all the trouble of fining the coins.
What does the sword do?? More damage???
unlocks more secrets i bet :D
Perry D in 10 years maybe.
That's what I came here to learn, guess it's more secrets.
It's a secret.🤫

Nothing could possibly described the assuredly countless players of SOTC collective disappointment of this secret finally becoming reality after so much searching, as the slow, almost pure, unbounded disappointed looking walk down the small step at this moment
I think that they should have done a boss fight to show a hidden 17 colossus to get the sword...but still it is cool

Been trying to find a way to glitch in there, but the devs have expended quite some effort for you not to cheat your way in there...
it be take so time is there anyway to take it with out recives the coins
I know you need 79 coins But why not have it be 48 coins to reference the original number of colossi
Thanks to PS4Trophies for finding this secret first!
It could enable a super ultra hard mode... Because this sword Will have no use..You finished many times to get it

Does the beam from Wander's sword guide me to the Colossi?
Can you get the sword on PlayStation 2 (OG) version?
Does it one hit?
AT Games Looked it up, it doesn’t one hit, but it’s pretty damn strong,
Narcissism Incarnate NICE! Thanks!
Question is, does it lead to another secret?...
AT Games it’s slightly more powerful than the queens sword
So is it a one hit kill for each colossus? because if not it seems not worth it...
There could have been so many cool things added like an ability or some cool item. Swords are awesome but wander already has the ancient sword...
Why does it feel like the ascadia forum is here
I still want to know where the sword is pointing to when it has the black beam
How about some damn credit to the Secret Seekers and Nomad. They made this happen, they're work is truly moving.

I wonder what the coins are for
*A few days later after 100%
WTF!?
BUT... this was not in the original game, right?
It didn’t work with maybe I have to finish the game first?
Hang on, does this help? Like with more damage?
Also, what button do you press to get in?
You need to collect 79 hidden coins 😂
The button to get the sword Is the pray button
SOMEONE TELL JACKSEPTICEYE ABOUT THIS!!!!

so was this basement present in the ps2 versions?
mtrickster23 i think the coins are only on the new game, which you need to get to the basement
How do I open the gate?
Collect all 79 coins
I can’t find it?
Does anyone know how to get the harpoons?
you mean harpoon of thunder go to map press triangle Item menu go down to harpoon of thunder then you will see how many colossus you have to defeat in normal time attack mode to get it
What is he whispering
Is that available on PS3 ?
azahra adyra no
Noooooo T.T i am gonna cry it's not fair
