Team ICO 30 Day Challenge Day 5: Which colossus is your favorite? And which one is your least favorite?
Colossus Thirteen (Phalanx) is 100% my favourite. It has the most dragon vibes of any of the final Colossi, but more than that, it’s just... big and beautiful and peaceful. It’s the only one that never attacks Wander - it’s just doing its thing, and the only way it can hurt him is in its attempts to escape. It’s a thrilling fight, too, high-speed and high in the sky, but of all the Colossi, Thirteen still makes me feel the worst for killing. Even Four (Phaedra) and its deer screams at least tries to attack you.
My least fave used to be Twelve (Pelagia) because it’s so tedious, especially when you don’t know about the ‘bonking its teeth to move it’ trick, like I didn’t when I first played. These days I can appreciate its weird design, though. (It appears to have lost the top part of its head. Those look like teeth jutting out of its ‘head’.)
No, these days I think my least fave is Nine (Basaran). Those goddamn geysers!
