I never played it. Should I played it?

I have a hard time recommending it at full price, only because it can be divisive. Its very design can be a huge turnoff.

When you boil it down, its a boss rush game. There are no enemies to speak of outside of the colossi. Some people find the massive empty spaces to be boring. There is incentive to explore, however. Without getting too spoilery, you can increase your stamina and health through exploration. But outside of that, theres not much to do unless you find enjoyment in simply exploring and experimenting.

Its a gorgeous game. Well-made. The original PS2 versions controls and camera were finicky, but thats been smoothed out in the remake (still not perfect, though). The story is minimal, but impactful. Im obviously of the ilk who enjoy it immensely, but that the same time I can see why some people would not enjoy it, so Id advise waiting for a sale if youre on the fence.
