He explains that unlike SotC's gigantic, free-roaming kingdom, TLG's location isbasedarounda single environment, the sprawling,sun-bleachedcastle we've seen so much of in the trailers. Although this doesn't mean that the game will be spent entirely in stoney, enclosed areas of light and shadow - the setting will be an extensive and eclectic environment - it does bode for rather a different kind of journey.
It seems the relationship between the boy and beast will be a genuine progression throughout the game. At first the big furry feathered fella will be completely indifferent to his small human companion, ignoring his influence and buggering off on his own to do whatever he feels like doing. Given time though, familiarity, trust, and a real bond will build,giving the two the kind of inseparable, understanding, emotionally-closedynamic that Team Ico will use to ABSOLUTELY CRUSH ALL OUR HOPES should they choose to kill one of them off at the end. Which I personally don't reckon they will. But we'll see.
