because I did.

Sometimes, that game made me feel like a coldharted hunter.. :(
If only the colossi where REALLY bad.. Now there are giants who don't even attack you. Made me feel like the bad one.

beside that, GREAT game.

Not the first time around.

The second play-through, after knowing the ending....yeah I felt pretty bad.

I felt bad for some of them, the ones that ignore you, the ones that fight you only in self defense and the funny looking ones. I didn't feel bad taking out the little bastards that rush at you and try and kill you on sight.

[I also felt dissapointed that the maincharacter became a baby... I'm so glad I played Ico first. If I knew that he became a newborn again, I wouldn't like that game as much, I think]

What I loved about SotC is that you ultimately play the bad guy in it. The Colossi are peaceful and didn't do anything, and here you come killing them, and becoming the evil itself.

Maybe that's why you turn into a moster yourself? I'm sure their's a lot of meaning behind it all. It is the pre-quel to Ico....sadly if you haven't played Ico the game might seem like crap. :(

I don't exactly feel good about killing them, but I felt worse the first time that I harvested a little sister in Bioshock, I elected to save them after that.

I've played Ico first and I'm glad I did. I loved that game so much.

No...just no. And I did the game on both difficulties.

I've heard this point often made that there is a sadness in killing them off...I must be emotionally devoid because the whole thing went over my head and as far as I was concerned I was just killing off big ugly monters.

I never felt bad even though I knew they were peaceful. The overriding feeling was saving the girl, end justifies the means type of thing.
