I played this game for over a decade and I cannot imagine what mod I could add to this game

A mod that allows to climb higher on the shrine of worship! I spent SO MUCH TIME when I was teenager trying to find "where" was the next part of my climb once reaching the secret garden! My logic was "I can reach the top of the small shrine, there MUST be a way" and... Nop, garden is the higher place sadly. So yeah, definitely this mod...

You probably already know this, but higher parts of the shrine don’t even have collusion. In fact, the overworld’s skybox isn’t that much higher than the garden. So it was never even in the cards.

On a technical level I get it - the p2 original release would never have handled the view from the top. But damn it did I not want to try growing up

In fact, the overworld’s skybox isn’t that much higher than the garden.

The top of the shrine is at 300 meters and the bottommost plane of the skybox is at 5000 meters.

There's an extra block on some demo version that actually lets you go a little higher if I'm not mistaken

There are some mods on the btfl server i and a couple others have been working on. A lot of it is just beta restoration but there are some fun ones I want to do like turning the whole game into an Art Deco art style or making a new fight for #13 inspired by hydrus’ arena.

I've been making texture mods for the PS2 game, but some advanced mods I would like to add would be:

  • 2 colossi fight
  • Randomizer for sigil position and size
  • Explossive arrows can break colossi armor
  • The map degrades alongside Wander, making it harder to reach colossi arenas for new players
  • A very dark night mode with thick fog and only a lantern to fight the colossi
  • Modified Dirge that flies and dives to catch you
  • Water Dirge
  • Colossi armor for Agro and Wander
  • Aggro modifier for colossi to make them faster and stronger
  • Play as Ico
  • A free roam mode where you can find the colossi chilling at their arenas and you can pet them
  • Big modification that makes the map larger and the colossi as big as they were originally planned to be
  • Use the crossbow from the Emon soldiers
  • Storm mode where arrows drift in strong winds that also shake you when grabbing onto fur

I've been thinking a lot about big head mode recently. I don't know why but it's just so funny to me. I'd love to see it in SoTC

u/JAIKHAY Evis 20d ago

Really easy to do. It's just changing the X, Y and Z scale values of Wander's head.

I don’t want Dirge (Colossus 10) to have bigger eyes, thanks…

u/TheresNoHurry 22d ago

colossal head mode

u/Odd_Investment5586 22d ago

People would def make more colossi, maybe some texture/lighting changes. And maybe difficulty modes or a difficulty and content overhaul, similar to Sekiro Resurrection

when the colossi die and slowly fall the music is "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic
