I wonder if this same tech will be implemented in game using your DS4 or PS camera

So this is what Mr. Ueda has been doing all this time, it all makes sense now.

Needs to eventually became a PSVR experience.
Really nice, but there's a long delay between the movement of the ball and the Trico response.

Can this be supported with playstation eye? Should be right?
The reactions vary, sometimes he reacts quick and sometimes it seems his attention is on something else and then he reacts. Makes it feel more natural.

Of course. Download playroom and you'll see the same type of interaction between you and the little tiny sony robot things.

Oh fuck yes, please. Even if it is just him looking to you, I'd spend hours in it.
Haha, with the head angle on that gif I was thinking the exact same thing.
Not when the person on the left throws the ball high. The ball goes up then as it lands Trico's head follows it's path in the air, around a second later. That looks very unnatural.

Yeah it seems to be attracted by motions and tracks spherical colored objects, those are standard features of the PSEye software, like what you can see in the Playroom.
I'm not sure it would be convenient for a home demo though (it needs to be calibrated so that it knows the size of the screen and its relative position to the camera... and you'd need a huge screen anyway
).The game got too popular for TGS i assume.
If it's a short game like Ico (you can beat that game in like 2 hours) then you can't show much, unless you want to spoil the whole game.
So assume we'll see more of it (and perhaps get a release date) at PSX, which will have the biggest following, being in the US.

Wish i was there to try lol
ICO is a 5+ hour game but okay
The two hour mention is pretty much a speed run , one that you will hate Yorda's AI for it.
They said they're using the in game AI, so I'm assuming it's something they quickly repurposed as a demo rather than specifically programmed to interact with real people as a projection.

This is pure genius. And in that vid on twitter you can clearly hear a child saying 'I can do that'.

Super cool and Super cute.
This might end up being the smartest AI video game character we've ever seen.
I totally understand how the PS3 RAM just couldn't simulate such realistic animal behaviour.

that is from new PS4 commercial showed during the press conference

Considering they've been pretty pro at animal AI since shadow of the colossus, both with Agro and the colossus themselves, it comes off as no surprise.
AI is always one thing i really wanted to see progress through console generations instead of pure graphics. So i'm glad to see they're hard at work on that

I think with complex AI such as the what we're seeing with Trico, it would probably behave realistically. The problem with being realistic for video games is that it can sometimes cause tedium and that may turn people off entirely. For example, if they really want to make him behave like an actual animal, he may not always respond to whatever command you give him because that's how a real animal would act. I would think that there's a large possibility that Trico could behave erratically because that's what you would expect out of a real animal held in captivity.
Which is why they didn't want to run a live demo at E3, they couldn't predict how Trico would react.
Yes, I think that may hurt the game's reception when it releases or it may turn off a few people who are on the fence. Personally, I'm all for it and this is what I expect from certain video games. It might frustrate some people I think, even though it's probably intended from Ueda.
I don't think it will tbh, people will appreciate that kind of realism (everything about the creature just feels so natural and likable).
An E3 conference is a different story though since timing is crucial and they can't have unexpected things happen that might cause delay. They had no problems doing a live demo for journalists later, which had very positive impressions.
I think it'll be fine.
They stated that, at the beginning, Trico would act kinda independently because the bond between it and the boy isn't super solid. But as you progress through the game his reactions will become tighter and tighter.
Since the game's theme really seems to center around companionship and bonds, it makes sense. If they can craft a good story and level design around that theme, there shouldn't be a problem.
Although yeah, some people might be turned off. I mean it already happened after the rereveal, because some people jumped on the shadow of the colossus hype train without having even played it or Ico beforehand and were like "Wait, THAT's it ?" when the game was shown. It will be probably a slower game than most

The biggest news I got from that video is that they fixed collision of his ears.
