Alien: Isolation

Hey I just get to make cool art every day, go throw a brick at the design team if that's the way you feel

I don't even get to make cool art anymore

Quote from KoKo5oVaR

I feel this is getting really touchy, get ready mark and liam, i mean emotionally. Because if fanboys (like this very mean portuguese 3d guy) innocently start to nitpick at stuff like metal reflections...

I assume the alien has the proper number of teeth... if not.. you guys are in deep trouble.

I remember this quote from a fan on totalwar center, where i go when i want to feel bad about myself : "I get comfort in knowing the rome2 dev team are humans after all, and as such, that they will die eventually."

People forget that the root of fan comes from fanatic, and if nothing else, history has told us that fanaticism of any kind has never been beneficial. It might have been religion before, but today where religion is largely an anachronism, it's been replaced by consumerism, sports, capitalism or social causes. Games are no exception to this, as is evident.by the amount of love/hate in this thread. People need something to fill that hole in their heart/mind with, and for most, it will always be external, materialistic factors because they require little thought or effort.

All of this because people are too lazy or too afraid to think about who they are and what they are doing in this life. If there ever was a god, I'm sure he's laughing his ass off at us all for dancing around like idiots, and at the irony of the whole situation. I know I would.

I'm pretty sure I'll be playing this game when it comes out! But then again I haven't watched any of the Alien movies or anything so for all I know I could be enjoying the game regardless of how wrong the specular map is on that blowtorch and not even realize it. Clearly I'm not worthy.

wtf is going in this thread? Someone makes an artistic observation about something in specific and someone else comes along talking about the negative aspects of fanaticism and how it's used to fill in the gap that in previous generations was filled by the belief of a god? Are you fucking kidding me right now? lmao, talk about reading too deep into something trivial! Also, I want some of whatever you're smoking, shit must be good.

Actually, I was responding to Kokos' post and the Total War quote he used, so nothing personal HP =) I hope we still cool

Hp it's cool mate, i mean there is no problem about liking alien. At all. I understand, i liked the movies too. I'm pretty sure it will be the coolest game and have some quite satisfying metal reflections for the release ! :v :v

Hmm well that looks great but I really think you should increase the lightness on the SpookyDoobyDoo-maps, maybe turn up the graphics on level 4, decrease the amount of compression on the socks in the second picture.

Still really looking forward to the game, though.

Clearly videogames = god ;D

This thread is full of win...

...and the game looks damn good too.

It's beautiful guys congrats

I don't know how much time will it takes to finish the game, but that would be absolutely terrific with an "iron mode" where you have to start back from the beginning if you die

Hell yeah, specially the AI being less predictable, you can't just memorize the steps like a Mario level.

You should pitch that idea in guys, something like the Hardcore mode in Diablo 3, if you die there's no respawn you have to start all over. Players appreciate that kind of stuff, remember how everyone raved about the 1999 mode in Bioshock Infinite?

hopefully this is better then colonial marines HAHAHA

my only problem with this is the alien AI design - it's just Amnesia? it doesn't feel like an alien - just a big clunky monster that walks around and doesn't seem to so much as hunt you as just wander around and let you run 5 metres behind it?

maybe it makes it more atmospheric and perhaps even makes for better design and more "hilarious" amnesia-like youtube reaction videos but it just doesn't feel like an actual alien so far..
