The Last Guardian is a sweet and dramatic story about a completely unusual friendship between two completely different creatures. But it is precisely because of these differences that this story works. You feel joy and anxiety for this couple equally sincerely. Perhaps it was precisely to “endure” the concept of these relationships that became the most difficult task for the developers, which put spokes in the wheels.

It's a pity that over the many years of work on The Last Guardian, Team ICO has not been able to competently optimize their game. It works at 29-30 frames per second, but only until special effects and enemies begin to appear in the scenes, which quickly reduce these values ​​to 20, and sometimes 15 frames. On the PS4 Pro, things are a little more stable, and the diagonals can be stretched up to 4K. Without a doubt, The Last Guardian is Team ICO's greatest work and one of the best PS4 games ever.

The Last Guardian is a completely linear game that doesn't tell you how to move forward. Those. There is a way, and it is only one, but try to find it! In addition, the world is very contradictory - you can interact with some objects, but not with others. You can spend a lot of time trying to get to what seems to be the right object and solving a problem in order to find out in the end that it is nothing. And those hints that are usually given are already very obvious, and thus useless.

The Last Guardian is a unique game. It's not about a long wait or a florid plot with an open ending. It is about the smile that appears on your face while playing with an outwardly formidable, but infinitely kind beast inside. She's ... in your heart, if you will.

The Last Guardian is a worthy follower of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. Like Ueda's previous games, this one is not for everyone - fans of modern projects with thousands of tips should be especially careful - but this does not negate the fact that the Japanese game designer managed to create an amazing adventure that tells about the friendship between a human and a wild beast. And this person is you. You tame the animal ...

Before us is an example of Japanese courage, when SIE Japan Studio released, albeit outdated, but long-awaited game, in the form in which it might have been expected in 2010, but have waited only now. For all those who waited, for all those who every year asked, "How's The Last Guardian?" Here he is, exactly the same as he was promised, and it is a little strange to expect a superblockbuster from him after all the twists and turns.

Sometimes The Last Guardian still wakes up the same game that has lived in the minds of fans of Ueda's work all these years. When you and Trico first venture out into the fresh air, you see all this lush foliage and sun-drenched valley. When sitting on the back of a giant beast, you jump from one tower leaning into the sky to another. When you first encounter enemies and hear mysterious music, for some reason reminiscent of themes from the Soviet cartoon "The Golden Antelope".

The Last Guardian is not at all the game that Team Ico fans have been waiting for for several years. It has moments of unearthly beauty and a swing at something great. The idea itself sounds very cool, but this idea was implemented not only unsuccessfully, but as a failure. Perhaps The Last Guardian really should have been canceled, as Sony is rumored to have done at some point. Then she would forever remain an ephemeral memory of something unfulfilled, but wonderful.

Anyone who played Heavy Rain probably remembers the scene where Ethan Mars was crawling inside a long pipe strewn with broken glass. This is approximately how you feel when playing The Last Guardian - as if you are crawling on all fours over the fragments, it is dark around, and the pipe never ends. There is no doubt: Team Ico has got a reliable image of the animal, for which they can be praised. It turned out to build an emotional connection between the beast and the player.

The Last Guardian is a worthy follower of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. Like Ueda's previous games, this one is not for everyone - fans of modern projects with thousands of tips should be especially careful - but this does not negate the fact that the Japanese game designer managed to create an amazing adventure that tells about the friendship between a human and a wild beast. And this person is you. You tame the animal, learn to communicate and interact with it, and more and more imbued with sympathy for the unusual creature. By the end of the journey, you become so attached to Trico that you absolutely do not want to let the bird go, because in ten hours he becomes a real friend. Eh, such species would exist in real life!

But while programmers and animators often put sticks in their wheels, the charm of the story does not let go until the very end. And some moments even make you open your mouth with amazement, from the surrounding beauty or from a particularly impressive game moment. Even if not everything is smooth on the technical side, the creators managed to make a touching and penetrating story of friendship. A story about mutual help and self-sacrifice. A story "with a soul", and this is such a rarity in today's world.

The Last Guardian is an extremely sweet game where relationships and emotions come first, rather than plot and action scenes. The game will lead you to thoughts about friendship, devotion, about those bright feelings that are sometimes lacking in real life.

Fumito Ueda's lifelong game is a pocket miracle. Feels like a kind of fruit of the forbidden love of Bloodborne, Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Colossus. Although, in all honesty, where I, most likely, once had a heart, I will say that this, perhaps, has not been met anywhere else. It is not known how much effort the Japanese comrades spent on all this, but they were not wasted in vain. Maybe other colleagues in the shop will now realize how important serious AI companions are, and will begin to apply this knowledge in practice. In addition, a sense of a certain integrity of the game is created, which is especially appreciated in the adventure genre. On the other hand, due to the unusual gameplay itself, the general dampness and intricacy of the storyline, The Last Guardian is at risk. In general, “five” for content, “four” for literacy. " Thus, they did not last a little before Our Choice. Although you know what? Perpetuate in stone. Marble is fine.

The Last Guardian is a unique game. Slow, meticulous and logical. Very extraordinary, art-house, but with serious flaws in the technical part: sagging frame rates, inconvenient controls and the graphics themselves do not shine with delights. However, due to the fact that the project is very original, one does not want to scold him strongly, because such creations are produced by only one person. I would like to say the opposite, but I would not recommend TLG to newbies. The chances are too high that you will be disappointed, do not understand and will regret the money spent. If you are ready to slightly expand the boundaries of the gaming experience for yourself, and at the same time passed ICO and Shadow of the Colossus, then this is your game.

Many players call The Last Guardian an arthouse project, and it really is. The game will definitely not be to the taste of many, as the ending of the “Ico - SotC - TLG” trilogy), it will definitely not suit all fans, but fans of something unusual will be interested (quite justifiably) for sure. And since the text was written on behalf of the second ...

World of fiction

A touching epitaph to the PlayStation 2 era, when publishers allowed themselves expensive copyright projects. The Last Guardian, being a long-term construction, came from those times and makes the same strong impression as Fumito Ueda's previous masterpieces - ICO and Shadow of the Colossus.

The Last Guardian is not perfect in every way. Unfortunately, even extra time would not have saved the game from failure. The developers, with the problems with the release of the project and the creation of the Trico behavior scheme, missed the fact that they needed to build the game around. Let the shadow of some universe build up around the chamber plot, but the gameplay is not interesting. It will not be possible to refresh the riddles, because there are only a few ways to solve them, and even those are used to the maximum. The fate of The Last Guardian is no different from other long-term construction: the anticipation was more beautiful than the release itself.

Anyone who played Heavy Rain probably remembers the scene where Ethan Mars was crawling inside a long pipe strewn with broken glass. This is approximately how you feel when playing The Last Guardian - as if you are crawling on all fours over the fragments, it is dark around, and the pipe never ends. There is no doubt: Team Ico has got a reliable image of the animal, for which they can be praised. It turned out to build an emotional connection between the beast and the player. But to build a decent game on all this did not work out. The product is one of those that you definitely need to at least touch. But it is not at all necessary to go through completely, and even more so to ever return here.

We understand that many will call the beast stupid, but signs of its stupidity during the passage appeared only a couple of times, otherwise Triku behaved very lively. At the beginning, it was difficult to predict his actions, but after some time, understanding him as a living creature makes it possible to see new facets in the gameplay. He needs to eat, he is greedy for smells, he often loses his temper during a battle - all this is expressed not only in the color of his eyes. It's easy to believe in its animation, it is really a huge unknown beast, clumsy, but graceful. In a word, genDESIGN did a great job.

And in general, they no longer do this, at least not in expensive exclusives for the most popular consoles. Now it is customary to spread everything at once, the player only has to taste the story in a new pack of videos. Then shoot, then jump. In The Last Guardian, every classic element of the gameplay is inextricably linked with a sense of friendship and trust, organically forming almost the most valuable project of the outgoing year.

The Last Guardian has been doing it for nine years. This game should have been released on PlayStation 3 a long time ago, but it was released only now, almost unchanged since the announcement - at least conceptually. Is it obsolete? Had she been released five years ago, the effect would have been stronger. But while we waited, the games moved in the same direction that Fumito Ueda had been digging all his life. Journey, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and others like them worked just as brilliantly with the player's emotions as Ico and Shadow of the Colossus did in their time. In such a company, The Last Guardian looks even more organic. As if it should be so.

The authors proposed a wonderful idea with two completely different characters, told a touching story about friendship and mutual assistance, built excellent versatile puzzles, built an attractive world with their own mythology. However, the amazing impressions of this magnificence, as if on purpose, were spoiled by the overly capricious behavior of the griffin and the camera, as well as poor optimization on the PS4. If you want to play without brakes - buy PS4 Pro.

Without a doubt, The Last Guardian is Team ICO's greatest work and one of the best PS4 games ever. The world is magnificent, and the touching story of a strong friendship between a little boy and a huge beast is captivating. It's a pity that numerous technical errors do not allow you to enjoy the game to the fullest.

The most famous example of this way of presenting the plot outside of Japan is the canon manga "Kozure Okami" and the film "Shogun's Assassin" based on its motives. Anyone to whom these names do not mean anything runs the risk of abandoning The Last Guardian twenty minutes after the start and thereby depriving himself of the unforgettable sensations of the contradictory, piercing, sometimes cruel, but still a wonderful story about friendship, duty and honor, oh imaginary freedom of choice and true freedom of conscience, which is given to every rational being at the same time as a gift and as a test.

The Last Guardian is a game of emotions that sends the player into his childhood dreams and dreams. Who has not dreamed of going on a real fabulous journey with their pets? This game embodies such a dream in the virtual world, offering us an adventure full of feelings, joy and pain. Almost without words, but with a lot of gestures that say much more than words. Yes, the project is terribly awkward, the control sometimes turns into a nightmare, the wayward Tricu makes you want to change mercy for rage and punch him on the growing horns with something heavy, the camera performs somersaults as if in the clutches of a drunk owl, and the game design is hopelessly outdated. But the reward for overcoming these difficulties and fighting the wayward beast is invaluable. Like this game.

The Last Guardian is not at all the game that Team Ico fans have been waiting for for several years. It has moments of unearthly beauty and a swing at something great. The idea itself sounds very cool, but this idea was implemented not only unsuccessfully, but as a failure. Perhaps The Last Guardian really should have been canceled, as Sony is rumored to have done at some point. Then she would forever remain an ephemeral memory of something unfulfilled, but wonderful. Alas, Fumito Ueda's team released this game, and the reality turned out to be far from being as beautiful as the picture drawn by the trailers and screenshots. The only consolation is the opportunity to admire the beautiful scenery. At least the developers of The Last Guardian have not lost their artistic taste - and thanks for that.

The new creation of Ueda Fumito is a very unusual project, there is something alive and soul in it. Like the protagonists who travel the environments of a dark and gloomy world, The Last Guardian stands out among modern AAA blockbusters. The game, like a strange creature of Triku, from time to time surprises with its unpredictability and strangeness. Should you buy? If you own a PS4, then perhaps you should at least give it a try. Sometimes a truly unique piece has to wait. And how nice it is when expectations are not in vain.

Otherwise, The Last Guardian is like a guest from the past. The game ignores all modern trends and seems to exist in some kind of world of its own, where they have never heard of the varied gameplay. You should not be afraid of this: the game takes first of all the atmosphere of a fairy tale, and this is wonderful. Fans of Fumito Ueda's previous games will be delighted with this approach. The Last Guardian is a unique game. It's not about a long wait or a florid plot with an open ending. It is about the smile that appears on your face while playing with an outwardly formidable, but infinitely kind beast inside. She's ... in your heart, if you will.

Many will turn up their noses from monotonous locations and simple mechanics, someone will start counting polygons in Trico's feathers after so many years, because although the graphics have been tightened up, the ancient basis is visible even through post-processing. Before us is an example of Japanese courage, when SIE Japan Studio released, albeit outdated, but long-awaited game, in the form in which it might have been expected in 2010, but have waited only now. For all those who waited, for all those who every year asked, "How's The Last Guardian?" Here he is, exactly the same as he was promised, and it is a little strange to expect a super-blockbuster from him after all the twists and turns.

The Last Guardian is worth playing if only because it is the last great unfinished construction for today. It's a real miracle that the game still managed to get to release. But despite her amazing ability to evoke emotional attachment to a virtual beast and pull out a variety of emotions from the player himself - from deep pacification to caustic anxiety, it is impossible to close our eyes to the useless gameplay. However, no flaws in the game prevented me from falling in love with her. They will not interfere with you either. I am glad with all my heart that Fumito Ueda has finally finished the game and will now be able to switch to something new without unnecessary problems. Another important page in the history of the gaming industry has been closed.

A boy, a castle and a giant monster - and an unexpected amount. We don't have to fight - the goal is to make friends with the beast and, helping each other, get out of the castle. The only thing known about the release date of The Last Guardian is that it falls on 2016. But, unlike the past transfers - now it is for sure. Almost.

The project was announced back in 2007. The developers (Team Ico studio, affiliated to Sony Computer Entertainment) had already planned to close production several times, but the love of the fans saved the project and in 2014 it was announced that work was ongoing. And so, at the E3 2015 conference we were presented with the gameplay (see below - if the reader has no fear of heights).

The Last Guardian - Awaiting Release Date

When is The Last Gardians coming out?

The Japanese name of the game can be literally translated from Japanese as "Trico, man-eating eagle." Tricot is a creature, a cross between a dog and, probably, an eagle (only very, very large). The griffin-like animal will become the ally of the little boy in order to get out of the castle, fraught with many dangers.

Trico - although a companion, it will not work directly to control him: he has his own character and attitude towards the nameless boy. And it may well become obstinate, not execute the command, or even be distracted by something more interesting.

Initially, he will be completely aggressive, but as he progresses, the connection between him and the main character will grow stronger. However, for each player, "Tights will be different" - depending on how the boy takes care of him, whether he keeps him tight-lipped or gives him more freedom.

There will not be very many enemies - mostly these are guards who can be bypassed or defeated in one way or another using the environment. If they get caught, then they will not let go until the screen lights up "Game over". The main enemy will be the castle itself - with its labyrinths, heights, traps, puzzles and the floor falling from under your feet.

The Last Guardian - Trailer

Well, in the end - a trailer of the game, presented at the conference. Several breathtaking minutes of gameplay.

The outgoing year can rightfully be called successful for long-term construction projects. , brandishing a shotgun and clanking dirty industrial, showed who is still the main shooter in the universe. A small team has released an entertaining platformer Owlboy, which has been in development for about ten years. Even - and she got to the counters. For complete happiness, only The Last Guardian was lacking, but due to numerous transfers until the last one could not believe that the release would take place. However, it's one thing to release a hotly anticipated game, and it's another to live up to those expectations.

And ragdoll physics in 2016 does not look very appropriate. It is simply ridiculous to watch how the body of the hero, clinging to the back of the beast with one hand, writes incredible somersaults, after which the limb would vomit with meat. The same applies to enemies - if Trico begins to bite someone, then the opponent's body behaves completely inadequate. It looks really bad next to a superbly animated animal.

Although most of the questions are raised not even by the terrible frame rate, but by the disgusting, disgusting camera. Most of the deaths happen precisely because of her passionate love for idiotic camera angles. For example, you need to go down from the beast to some small platform, and do it quickly, but the operator will show the scene so that without careful aiming the hero will go straight into the abyss. It is better to forget about back riding in enclosed spaces, unless, of course, you want to test your vestibular apparatus for strength. It's a shame, but the constant struggle with the camera prevents you from enjoying The Last Guardian to the fullest.

It seems that there are few shortcomings, but they are all from the category of almost critical. In a project that has been in development for nine years, it is strange to see an inadequate operator, and sometimes you will not find such a failed optimization even in an average multiplatform. There is hope for patches, but they can only patch small bugs, rather than fix more important things.

Otherwise, The Last Guardian is a worthy follower of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. Like Ueda's previous games, this one is not for everyone - fans of modern projects with thousands of tips should be especially careful - but this does not negate the fact that the Japanese game designer managed to create an amazing adventure that tells about the friendship between a human and a wild beast. And this person is you. You tame the animal, learn to communicate and interact with it, and more and more imbued with sympathy for the unusual creature. By the end of the journey, you become so attached to Trico that you absolutely do not want to let the bird go, because in ten hours he becomes a real friend. Eh, such species would exist in real life!

An emotional and unique computer toy, embodied in the genre of action-platformer with puzzles, quests and a dramatic scenario, the implementation of which has been worked on for a long time by representatives of two gaming communities at once: Sony Computer Entertainment, Japan Studio.

First, visualization. The developers have tried to create the game world of this product. Locations have become larger and richer with new objects. In addition, many objects in this world lend themselves to the influence of the player. It's worth noting that the detailing, special effects, and hand-drawn textures look even better. And this is not surprising, since many years have passed since the release of the first game. Along with this, our heroes remained unchanged - an unknown boy, and his "pet" - a huge griffin Trico with "agility" and the clumsiness of a little kitten. And in addition to this, the developers were able, by introducing innovations in terms of visualization, to maintain the very atmosphere that clings to the player, to this day around the world.

So, let's highlight all the interesting features in the gameplay. Secondly, the game mechanics. In fact, the gameplay is built according to the same canons as usual, three-dimensional platformers. You have to control the little boy to move around the location. Jump over obstacles, solve puzzles, and much more to face throughout the game. But, there is one feature that no other game can boast. From the very first seconds, the characters from The Last Guardian evoke empathy from the players. The way the boy communicates with the griffin, and how the "pet" reacts to the boy, causes real emotion. Therefore, if you want to try out the features of this game, and see with your own eyes all the best, then we recommend The Last Guardian, download via torrent, for which you will need the help of our website.

Features of The Last Guardian

Amazing picture. The developers tried to improve the visualization of the game world, and at the same time leave the traditional atmosphere, which they did one hundred percent. They introduced a new engine, new special effects, improved detailing, updated and new locations that will give a chance to inspire prominent gamers and get acquainted with innovations for beginners.
Unique gameplay. You have to control the actions of a boy who has a "pet" - a huge griffin named Trico. Our griffin is still inexperienced and too young. Therefore, in order to overcome obstacles, he needs to be encouraged and helped in every possible way.
Classic platformer. Otherwise, the game is a classic three-dimensional platformer. You have to overcome obstacles, solve puzzles, collect items for a collection, and more. It is worth noting that our heroes will have mandatory tasks.
Dramatic plot. The scenario of the game includes an emotional plot, an illustration of the connection between two disparate, and completely different creatures - a man and a griffin. Despite this, the player will feel empathy and empathy for the revealed images of these characters.
