Words can't explain how much I love this guy

[@wiensandy]

I‘m completely with you. For me Fumito Ueda and Yoko Taro are the greatest artists in this medium ❤️

[@HEROm7]

i really appreciate this guy existence not because his games alone but the souls too. this quote taken from miyazaki's wiki page: "Miyazaki went to work doing account managing for the US based Oracle Corporation.[1][3] Upon a friend's recommendation, Miyazaki began playing the 2001 video game Ico, causing him to consider a career change to a game designer"

[@Pan_Z]

Coincidentally Ueda started as an animator. On Ico, his first time as director, he was lead animator, lead designer, and famously painted the game's box cover.

[@yoshimajestic1666]

Ico is the reason for me getting into the souls games. There's definitely a strong connection between the games.

[@Mr.Monky420]

That man is a fucking god. No one makes a game quite like him.

[@GamingShow11]

[@Mr.Monky420]

Journey

[@ScrubDusters]

Really didn’t play this games as a kid so not gonna front like I did I played SOTC tiny tiny amounts but never ever Ico and digging deeper into these games you really can see he was trying to make playable art Also why the fuck couldn’t someone today create a title for the ps2 and release it or is that just a dunce question cause Sony would never allow it, I know it’s counterproductive but I would love to see major creators make ps2 titles and somehow release them but I know I’m just reaching now

[@TyroClint]

20 years and only released 3 games.

[@maxschmidt2897]

Yet they are some of the best games out there. You can't make something great in just a few months. Making a game is a long process =)

[@libardomm.trasimaco]

For that reason maybe they produced 3 of my favorite games of all time. This is far beyond art.

[@downeyparmo4956]

Yup, it just goes to show how much love, dedication, and attention to detail Fumito and his team put into their games. I think these masterpieces were definitely worth the wait!
