Why do people like this game?
I'm about halfway through, does it get any better?
People told me to try this game before playing SotC.

It's charming.
it's shit
you'd be wise to just skip it and play sotc
Atmosphere. And it's better than SotC.
Ico is shit. Just play SotC.
it does get boring fast
>>342524409
Uh, sounds to me like you need to hand in your Gamer Card, son.
Maybe go try something a little more your speed, like stickball or jacks.

Atmosphere alone can carry a game?

MM is an objective shit show compared to other Zelda games and everyone gives it a pass because of the atmosphere.
>>342524409
FACT. Fags that liked Ico also liked Nier and vice versa. Prove me wrong.
>>342524409
ICO series is the most overrated franchise since MGS
>>342525749
I like nier and don't like ico
>>342525749
I liked nier but not ico
>when you load a game and Ico and Yorda are asleep on the couch leaning against each other and Yorda wakes up first and looks at Ico and smiles
The ending is the payoff. If you don't finish it it might be a complete waste of time.

It's not going to suddenly turn into DMC. Ico's only major problem is the combat, but I don't think a stylish rank would be appropriate for the game it's trying to be.
SotC does hint towards Ico, it's worth finishing if you care about the plot of either game.
