Can’t tell why you treat it like a movie, he b-lines to most of the objective, not really paying attention to things around him. Great gameplay though!
I love the character of Amanda Ripley. A well developed hero. 1:25:33 - She's been chased and hunted and shot at. Seen horrifying violence. Running and screaming through a nightmare. But then has a small moment, even after enduring so much, that she manages to make one small quip that gets an exasperated reply from the Chief of Polic--er, I mean the Marshall. 4:35:01 - Everything Ripley has done up to this point is to escape. To make contact with the Torrens so that she can be rescued. But now the tables have been turned, and the Torrens is the one that needs saving. Tired, beaten, the only one left, survived so much, even captured by the aliens. They need her help, and out of breath she says "Won't let you down." (Obviously she has to save the Torrens to save herself, but still, was just a great hero moment)
I love how there is japanese translations everywhere, iirc Weiland-Yutani is an american-japanese company, devs really did their homework in this game.
Hey, I'm a first timer on your channel... thanks so much for posting the No Commentary version. It's a great option to give the viewers. I have a hard time getting through horror games because of my nerves... got halfway through the game and then I decided it was too much for me. I always felt bad that I left Amanda in there though, wanted to see how she got out. As a talking point: While this game has some obvious flaws, it also has some of the most brilliant moments in gaming that I can recall experiencing in a long time. Having lived through the late 80's and 90's, and always being a fan of Alien since I was a kid, I can tell you that this is the game that the franchise desperately needed from the beginning. Whether they make a sequel or not I will always appreciate what this game brought to the fans. I'll definitely be watching more of your stuff. Cheers.
2:03:07. This part reminds me when I did it on nightmare. Pretty much did the same thing you did except the alien figured out I was in the vent. I knew by the way he hissed. In my head I said if he jump in the vent I'm going to jump out and run. As soon as he jumped in the vent, Ripley said FUCK ( exactly what I was thinking). I jumped out so quick and ran like roadrunner and made it 😂😂
Thank you! I’m watching this during quarantine with a bottle of tequila, it’s like watching s movie! Thanks for the link for no commentary that got me here, cheers everyone :)
What a brilliant game. The feeling of claustrophobic darkness it makes you feel, the acting, the music. The fact that Sigourney Weaver is a part of it is just phenomenal
Some routes you adopted in this run are simply mind blowing! San Cristobal! It took me 2 minutes instead of the 30/40 minutes of my average game play. I follow your steps to get the last two trophies I needed (Survivor and Mercy or Prudence?). Thank you!!!
@@rajlol16 He knows how to play the game very well. You can actually beat this game in 2.5 hours if you speed-run with no glitches it but it’s much more difficult.
How the hell is the Alien not down and actively hunting you in the areas. Spent most of the time in the vents while you strolled through the game. I finished the game on hard setting and the alien was always in the areas I was in constantly searching for me and that was me crawling my way through the game. Died so many times haha. Well anyways nice run through dude 😁👌
I think it’s because the director AI points the alien in your direction if you hide. If you hide less the alien will most likely not be able to find you as easily even on nightmare mode.
Absolutely stellar job on this run. I like to find a good longplay, put it on big screen and just kick back and enjoy it like a movie. It always helps if it's a good runner.
Ok I’ll ask the question, how in the hell do some people manage to run through san christobel medical without being chased by the alien? 😮I mean I couldn’t even walk it without the alien being on my tail
Mission 5: During the animation (the one where the alien is dropping down from the vents very gracefully,) the alien can not yet see or hear you, so you are safe to run and punch in the code. Once the alien drops down, you can still run if you are far enough away, but the alien will be pointed in your direction because of the director AI so be careful. Carci was kinda lucky in mission 5 because the alien never went down from the vents in that section very much.
2:56:39 hearing the motion tracker go off so many times as all the xenomorphs in the hive begin to converge on Ripley's location is one of the most effective moments in the game for me.
Lovely run through. Though the fact that, sense you know where to go and dont need to look around scares me bc i dont know if anythings behind the character. I keep wanting to warn you to look around.
Ricardo’s death was the creepiest imo. What makes it creepy for me is that we don’t even hear him die. He just goes quiet for a long time, but then we just happen to come across him getting hugged to death :(
4:13:04 I just don't get it. When I did this part (on Hard), the Alien could very obviously see through the obstacles. It would see me, no matter what I did, even if I didn't have line of sight on it. In fact, much of the time, I wouldn't see it at all until it suddenly appeared next to me. It was only because of multiple molotovs and pipe bombs that I made it through this. But you're sitting in plain sight, it looks straight at you, and it somehow doesn't see you?! What the hell?
Awesome. Must've taken meticulous notes to get it played so efficiently. Did a friend read out the next steps for you? Like a rally car driver's co-pilot.
@@CarcinogenSDA absolutely, couldn’t believe some of the luck you had in so,e scenarios or areas of levels. I’ve given up for a sequel along time ago. But I still come back to this every now and again 😄
Ain't no way. I just started playing this game 3 days ago watch your upload for help and for the first 2 hours, you been breezing through....but me, as soon as load into my game the alien is standing right there!! 😂 You must have on some special made house slippers cause he here's me on everything I do....I got stuck hiding in a locker for 10 mins because he leaves and reappears immediately like..come on!!
I beat this game on Nightmare a while back, and I can understand beating it without dying, but to take 0 damage? How did you pull that off? And do the scripted cutscenes not count?
Since I've never played the game I need to ask... Are those space suits the original ones or some skin they have? Feels like I'm watching Alien mixed with Warhammer 40k.
Had to stop with one hour so missing, and I gotta say, this feels very soothing and plays very much like a movie. Which is nice, I haven't watched a good Alien movie since forever. Thx for this version Carci.
It's segmented. I didn't go *UNDER* every vent, but iirc I also knew which vents the alien would be in in advance. It's been a very long time since I've done this, I know that sounds like a convenient excuse, but I really don't remember much about how I recorded these segments. So that's how those vents work to the best of my recollection.
because “no damage” means i didn’t take any hits from anything non mandatory. there’s several cutscenes where you’re forced to take mandatory damage along the way.
Personally had a total blast with AI too. Nightmare was definitely the initial way to go although I didn't remember having so much loot for item crafting!

You get a like from me, just for the effort and time you took to make that comment👏👏👏.
you have made a great comment Daniel I am proud of someone like you who took time and effort to make a comment on a game.
She does seem to be very dependable.
"Sevastopol not quite what you're expecting, eh?"
"Actually I strangely know the whole place back to front.."
I've never seen somebody survive so many near misses with the alien. Incredible timing!
Xenomorph AI stops it from attacking the moment you take an elevator (and they close too fast for any enemy to enter in time)
"It's gone to hell in here, Samuels" Ripley says as she yeets a lit flare into a crowded hallway
I love how there is japanese translations everywhere, iirc Weiland-Yutani is an american-japanese company, devs really did their homework in this game.
As someone who can read some Japanese, much of it looks like Google Translate.

Jastro88 I’m interested what flaws would you say this game has, I’m halfway through playing and I’m interested as it seems to,play well enough
I think that this game has awesome graphics, AI, and more. If you look at games now Days, no game is BETTER that Alien isolation or AVP.
Wow! This run is so impressive, you make the alien seem like a mere wasp intermittently pestering a picnic in the park.
51:26 ripley is a great mime
yea you are right.
That is a wide variety of sounds she's able to make with that 👄.

He plays this game so well and so expertly, the Alien got bored and gave up 😆
how, the HELL did you complete this game, on NIGHTMARE, in less than 5 hours???
fr bro ever gameplay is like 8 which is confusing bc they dont die lol is the game shorter on nightmare? or quicker?
@@rajlol16 he is speed runing it othe rplayers go through the game slowly he is an expert bc he playd it 1000 times so he just speed runs it

Steps quietly, doesn’t pick fights, in and out like a kung fu chicken
11:12 so thats where that sound effect comes from
What sound effect? All I heard was radio static that reminded me of Perry the Platypus
I know this is old as fuck but i think they are referring to the sound at the time stamp its like a dramatic drum sound
7:07 - Just noticed she’s sitting in the middle of the two chairs..
And it has a gap ... Im starting to remember p*** like that smh
Sometimes I did exactly that in school.
excellent sense of atmosphere, good horror stuff. this takes it back to what the franchise was originally supposed to be about
1:33:06 stuck behind old people in the mall simulator
No human kill... Let's Xeno does, priceless. X3
Love it, thank for the run.
Nerves of adamantium!! Thanks for posting such a great playthrough!
You never cease to amaze me, Carci.
Tbh shout out to that one android who helped ripley find the component for the elevator.
Absolutely stellar job on this run. I like to find a good longplay, put it on big screen and just kick back and enjoy it like a movie. It always helps if it's a good runner.
thx for making a no commentary version
Killing the androids doesn't count as killing. It's called a forced shutdown.
From Aliens lore to Terminator lore... Apollo playing the role of Skynet.

Never underestimate the Power of save
Whenever I run on easy the alien always comes
So at approximately 1:03:00, are they hostile or friendly? or did ripley turn too fast so they couldnt respond?
Hostile, and yes
I died for like hundreds of times in the hospital but this guy just running around like a boss 57:00
4:06:25 Bob’s magic trick!😅
100% my friend, you're the best

Wimp!
Turn off the 🎶. Half of stress and noise will be gone making things much more clear and calm.
It’s a door opening simulator
2:09:40 Marshal Waits' death yelps as he's being killed by Working Joes always shook me to my core. Great VA, Great atmospheric tension.

Thanks for the video! Was a great watch!
How does carcinogen have the brain power to memorize all these no damage strats?
sick backhanded compliment broski
Thank you very much. Got me through the game. Im not a hardcore gamer but love Alien
What an awesome storyline.
Little glitch, if you bump into the radio/telephone esc device at 6:09, it will always fall though the box, clipping through it
First time playing "Oh sweet mother of ... "(Dies)
10 hours later "I bet the alien will love getting pranked" (crafts several flashbangs)
Ahhh. The end was a cliffhanger. I need more of tht ending
that standoff a 4:05:00 was so intense
4:13:04 I just don't get it. When I did this part (on Hard), the Alien could very obviously see through the obstacles. It would see me, no matter what I did, even if I didn't have line of sight on it. In fact, much of the time, I wouldn't see it at all until it suddenly appeared next to me.

Is it just me or at 3:52:38 is someone saying "It's me Rip"
56:14 I come for the notorious mission 5 hospital. I can’t believe the alien doesn’t bother to ambush Ripley in the corridor near the keycard’s room.
Me: *watching Samuel ignorant to the fact the androids are even worse* D:
Me: *watching Samuel take out the android with his bare fists in seconds* :D
My nigga died anyways, goddamn. This some shit
Ricardo too? Man, what the fuck
Why was there a cut at 2:21:53 ?
Awesome. Must've taken meticulous notes to get it played so efficiently. Did a friend read out the next steps for you?
Like a rally car driver's co-pilot.
This play through was impressive, barely seen the alien in some places because you wasn’t hiding. Some close calls but mega impressive.

I can only imagine a Metroid Prime looking like this, damn, I can't wait for Metroid Prime 4...
I swear there are multiple parts there where you're running and the Alien doesn't come out. In nightmare mode! I don't understand.
"We r on xpress elevator 2 Alien Isolation, going down ..."
1:40:00 It was at this point, I would be saying, "let's get the *bleep* outta here!"

He plays so well we couldnt even see alien like 2 hours. Give that creature time to shine :D
Also, how did you get away with running so much and going under like every single vent in your path?!😅
It's segmented. I didn't go *UNDER* every vent, but iirc I also knew which vents the alien would be in in advance. It's been a very long time since I've done this, I know that sounds like a convenient excuse, but I really don't remember much about how I recorded these segments. So that's how those vents work to the best of my recollection.
Why would a vent have a motion detection system to open? Especially on the inside lol
It takes a lot of courage worked up to play this game. Nostalgia.
I'm currently playing this difficulty and I'm already at 1:58:40. This 🎮 is tough. Takes me a lot of time.
I love how there was a pause with axle where he was like: *Fuck….*
If you took “no damage”, why did you have use for medkits along the way?
because “no damage” means i didn’t take any hits from anything non mandatory. there’s several cutscenes where you’re forced to take mandatory damage along the way.
Lol you really thought you did something 😂 trying to judge someone who knows the game better than you ever will
or maybe that was a genuine question ;) he actually explains this "mandatory damage" thing on the commented version i think
man those loading screens really break the immersion hey
