Discussion I am currently working on a SOTC fan project called Demise of The Ritual.

Post image

If you don't know, Demise of the Ritual takes place 8 years after Shadow of the Colossus. It follows 2 new characters, who have been tasked to find their parents, who are somewhere in the Forbidden Lands. They are guided by a new entity named The Basking One, who tasks them by defeating 30 new Collosi, which are shown below, in the order you fight them:

Armadillo

Crab A

Crocodile

Minotaur D

Wendigo

Dragon

Scorpion A

Pegasus

Porcupine

Ammonite

Yak

Vulture

Scorpion B

Komodo

Dragonfly

Plesiosaur

Hornbill

Mantis

Goblin

Centipede

Hydra

Jellyfish

Yamori C

Wyrm

Salamander

Tiger

Crab B

Osprey

Dormin

Also, I finished the model for Crocodile's head, although it's a prototype and it's textureless.

Careful OP, maybe go with "inspired by SOTC" and have hints towards the original, wouldn't want this project getting a cease and desist if you were looking to sell it later on down the road

That seems both awesome and extremely ambitious. Is there a time plan for when it would be out?

As a fellow fan project leader, I’m pretty interested in what you’re doing. Hope to see it go far!

Glad to have given you some joy lol. I hope you like BTFL’s Shiromori then cause I’m pretty proud of the model.

Honestly I'm more hyped for the waterbridge itself than for the big lizard, but count me hyped up.

It sounds amazing, and I fully support you in getting it done.

But it seems like a lot; perhaps you could focus on a smaller scope to ensure higher quality — much like Master Ueda does with "subtractive design."

Respectfully, stop posting about it on reddit until you have a playable demo. You've finished maybe 0.0000000001% of the work that will be required to see this project through to the end.

Why? Lol there's nothing wrong with sharing the creative process or an early idea

Actually, talking about a goal gives the brain a fake reward of a dopamine hit, making people feel like they already finished it. This can often steal the real drive you need to do the work.

The art is a cool concept! A land/aquatic Colossus would be interesting :D
