Переглядів 3,7 тис.14 днів тому
Alien: Isolation is a game I’ve always looked back on fondly. In this video, I wanted to sit down and critique the story, design, and overall experience in a kind of final look back at the game whose sequel comes way too late! Enjoy. #alienisolation #retrospective #anniversary

Ad Infernum Review: An Uneven Imsim Horror Game
Look, what happened on Sevastopol is sad. It's a tragedy, no doubt. But I mean... it wasn't a Wey-Yu facility. Right? Like. Those people CHOSE to work for an inferior company. They got what they paid for, right? You'd NEVER see something like this happening on a proper Weyland-Yutani facility. We're building better worlds! The Company cares about us, the working men and women! That's what all the signs say, at least!
Welcome back, Carter Burke LMAO
I just beat this game last week after ten years lol man what a game
Great review my friend, i can see your love for this fantastic game, i love it too, i hope creative assembly makes a even better one on alien isolation 2 as they revelaed its on early development, i cant wait for it to get released! :D I subbed
Thank you for the kind words! What’s your biggest hope for the sequel?
@@fallinghurts i hope they keep the same recipe, another scenario perhaps, but i think if they keep this same formula it will be a hit CA could also make, if possible, an 'alien isolation' game having john carpenters 'the thing' theme, it would be amazing
Hello
How we doin??
@fallinghurts Think we're fine.
I admit, I have a love hate relationship with this game. Some parts flow so smoothly while other parts are (possibly) more annoying than getting teeth pulled with no anaesthetic.
I love the imagery LMAO. I get that. I also acknowledge that being an alien fan puts me at a huge bias. Though, I’m sure I know those exact sections.
@@fallinghurts grew up watching the Alien movies, all of them. It is hard to really fall in love with Alien Isolation's play styles, after having played Alien vs Predator 2. As a marine (in AVPS) you automatically have a motion senor in the bottom left of the HUD, in isolation you have to equip it and pull it out and avoid being heard. I know it is only a small thing but it still bugged me. The remake of Alien vs predator is worse than Alien Isolation. Control prompts everywhere that break immersion and the faction balance is wacky. But they are all still part of the alien universe and so I love them even if they are annoying to complete. Also, I really enjoyed your video essay and subscribed to catch any future uploads.
I think you’ve inspired me to make my own retrospective on this game. It’s a game that’s so incredibly special to me personally, and this video is amazing.
You should! I’ve done this for both Alien and Firewatch now. It’s very therapeutic to analyze something you’re already passionate about.
youtube gods landing a long essay in my recommended videos 🙏
I hope you enjoy, Puzzleguy123
Thank you so much for your incredible contribution to the reviewer’s lore of the Alien franchise. I love the whole universe. Keep it up and thanks again for your well thought out entry. 🙂
Thank you for the kind words! By your wording, you must be a big Alien fan. Do you have a favorite game outside of Isolation?
28:55 finding the blueprints early is something a lot of players actually fail to do. Blueprints have multiple different spawn locations so that if a player misses one of the earlier locations, they can still find one of the later ones. A lot of players I've seen missed the first medkit blueprint you found for example. So, the pacing of blueprints will vary from one player to another.
That’s a good way to look at it. Easy to forget people don’t have those locations partially memorized. Thanks for stopping by!
Colonial Marines and Fireteam Elite was some of the most fun a me and buddy of mine ever had. Colonial Marines felt like a fever dream and it's only really good if you can make fun of it with friends and Fireteam Elite was genuine coop fun. Just wanted to throw that out there since I feel that Colonial Marines is underrated in a "so bad it's good" kind of way.
When I first got my Xbox 360, i bought Colonial Marines. One of my first games ever. It wasn’t great, but I look back more fondly than most. I actually plan to do an “unbiased review” for the next Alien day. Also, you see that Fireteam should be getting a sequel?
What did you think about Romulus haven’t seen it yet. My favorite is aliens. Love the marines
I liked Romulus a lot. A good story with great characters and pretty good tense sequences. My only major complaint was they used CGI to have a dead actor in the movie and while they say they had permission it was unnecessary and quite frankly it looked ugly. If I had to give a number score.. 7? 7.5?
Did you feel your face muscles tense up like mine did when he "get away from her you bitch" in that film. @@fallinghurts
@DRAGONSSCREAM it’s even worse when you realize that in the timeline he says it BEFORE Ripley. It wasn’t as bad for me as most people, but still idk what the point was
Great video. Keep it up. Subbbbbbed
Only two hours? That's a good warmup for my neurodivergent bingewatching needs.
It’s cool. I just finished a 2 part, 20 hour essay on Skyrim. Thanks for stopping by!
im a simple man, i see multi hour retrospective, i click
Thank you brother. Let me know what you think!
Hi
Hey king
@fallinghurts Pleased you got to answer.
New Vegas fans kept me from playing New Vegas for years because they kept slandering my beloved Fallout 4 , which introduced me to the franchise .They hurt that which they claim to love , they are the Calf that bites of its mother's udders . I love New Vegas A LOT but I prefer Fallout 4 .Better Story , Gameplay , Enviroment , Soundtrack , slightly more likeable characters and far less chance of crashing when being modded .I can actually fucking play all of the game plus DLCs without being eternally locked out of vast stretches of content due to crashes and not being able to fix it because the community does not help me .
One of my best friends is a dev for this game and he let me try it out on his PS5 Dev Kit. He showed me stuff that is not public, and I'm not allowed to talk about it. But let me just say, I'm definitely playing this game once it's fully released! Was quite a lot of fun to play!
can you pick your gender? that's all I want to know lol..
@olsonbrandon91 in the build I played, no
gameplay sucks, scenes repeating, level design not clear on its all linear and story is disaster
This game is on sale on PS for $3.74 each for both PS4 & PS5. It definitely seems worth less than $4.
Nah it’s definitely worth more then $4 dollars the game is worth every penny and is great you trippin
Wow, nice review my dude. I'm currently on FO4 now and I started thinking that I love these type of games but the writing and RPG mechanics haven't been Bethesda's strong point for a while now. I was thinking about how to mod FO4 to make it more of an RPG, and 2 things came to mind: Fallout London (which I'm eager to try but am gonna wait a bit so it's a bit more stable), and that old Skyrim total conversion mod that had really good reviews when it came out and was said to be a bit better in the RPG department than the game it's running on lol So yeah every review I see fills me with more and more confidence that I'm gonna enjoy this one.
Thank you for the kind words! I recommend playing the Skyrim Special Edition version for Enderal for better stability. I’m also really excited to check out Fallout London, but I have no time!
Do you need subscription service like gamepasss and ps plus to play online? I’m trying to get back into this game but I don’t want to to make a purchase then Only be able to play local.
I had a soft lock where Cody got downed in the back garden by a zombie, i headed inside to see if i had a medkit, the only item that can revive Cody when downed, i didn't... and the game auto saved when i headed inside, so Cody was saved in the downed and dying state, having said that after restarting the run i'm still enjoying myself :)
I’m glad you are enjoying yourself! Thanks for stopping by.
This would of been awesome on the Switch great review! This game is cool I love it's PS1 asthedics and look
this is probably one of the more in depth reviews. makes me want the game haha
Thank you! If you get it, let me know what you thought
The sprite work is gorgeous, but it clashes with the lighting effects of the world.
That intro alone earned my sub
Not expecting plot in a shooter? There are plenty of shooters with plot... I would expect one, unless told otherwise... Even DOOM 2016, the most shooter'y shooter lately, has quite a large amount of plot... it's just not important for the gameplay.
I guess maybe I should have worded better.. I fully agree with you. It’s not that shooters don’t have stories, some are even great. Just that that isn’t what the main focus is here and especially with this type of shooter I never expected it to be anyways. Comparing Doom 2016 and the original Doom, the distinction narratively is stark. While this isn’t OG Doom, it harkens back to an era more similar to that over 2016. IF that makes sense
@@fallinghurts Most games of Doom's era were plot light, but that was primarily due to very heavy tech limitations while still keeping the game fun. It was not because they didn't want to do plot, because they wrote a significant amount of it.
Its no brutal fate, but looks nice.
I wish more developers would re-visit mature renderers more. These old school graphics are timeless. I know there’s the 8-but look-alikes etc. but why they don’t just USE the actual engine they are imitating is beyond me. Especially since so many api translators are out now to enable them to work on modern hardware. I would love to see some new content using the Dark engine (Thief) for example. The newer sneak-em ups just don’t feel as good.
These are not old school graphics anymore. There are modern light shaders, and tons of other modern features. They are modern retro graphics... And there are TONS!!! of reasons why not to use "the actual engine". Updating an engine to work proper on modern hardware, and use the modern features that makes stuff run faster, is likely going to take a longer time than building up a new one. GZDoom is not even the Doom engine anymore. It is HEAVILY modified. In original Doom, the reason why you couldn't look up and down is because of the way the renderer handled walls. It simply wouldn't look right being able to look up and down, it couldn't handle it. And frankly, Thief doesn't play well mechanically in terms of the sneak and movement, which is why it focused on all the other mechanics to help with the sneaking. The reason why "newer sneak-em ups just don't feel as good", is because they are not made for the people that liked Thief (Like you), because the people that would like Thief today is a niche market, and you get more people by making it a bit more casual and fighty, like Styx or Dishonered. Maybe you should try Dishonored with a no-fight/kill run? Full 100% never seen run? It makes for an actual challenge, especially at higher difficulties, and it start feeling more like Thief, despite all the abilities.
@@SioxerNikita fair enough, we’ve all got our opinions I guess 🤗 I don’t buy triple A for many of the reasons you mentioned. I guess I’m just not a mass market customer. 👍🏻
@@adamuk5037 And that's totally fair, but the one important take way, DO NOT! use an old incredibly outdated engine, that doesn't run on modern hardware :P You are going to spend more times fixing bugs than doing stuff :P Think about how many hours of programming has been done on GZDoom to get it to this polished state. TONS!!!
Algorithmic stroking comment, move along 😊
Thanks king
Ey! Thanks for the review, very handy feedback. Glad you enjoyed the game. Especially with the gameplay itself, that was a particularly heavy focus of ours during development. As we make progress during Early Access, we'll be shoring up some of the issues with presentation. We've got plans to help break up the silhouettes of the Armilimax (bug faction).
The ability to have a horror levels, chase sequences, and full blown power trips all in one game is special. I love the flow and quality of the gameplay. You’ve struck the gold :)
Great review!
Thank you! And thanks for taking the time to comment
Nice vid
Why are there urinals in the women's bathroom?
Looks like a cool game tbh. Nice review as well, keep up the good work!
Still the only game to genuinely make me feel watched while playing, I’m glad this games getting more attention
DEI detected. lol. at this point people just want to see sweet baby trash burn.
The story is a slow burn, the characters suck until you get near the end of the story. The gameplay is equally bad. Lack of enemy variety, 4major bosses total, mediocre platforming, and yet you recommend the game and like it? Did I get that right 😂
Just block the idiots in the comment section if their harassing you with mean comments
@@NadeemShekh-uy9zn thanks king!
This game gives me army of darkness vibes
That's a good comparison. It's also a bit like He-Man and the Masters of the Universe because of the mishmash of medieval and more modern technologies
Groovy nice review

Thank you so much for appreciating the only joke I made this video AND not calling me a woke shill because the game I like has a black woman lmao
@@fallinghurtsyeah I don't get it. Wtf does that have anything to do with enjoying the game? Just stupid comments with no objective or logical thought required. Great review!
It looks incredibly generic
