    For those who don't know Scorn is inspired by the artwork of swiss artist H.R Giger. His artwork was known for its fusions of human biology and machinery. He was also the designer of the Xenomorphs from the horror film classic Alien.

      The biomechanical art is Giger, but what really makes it good for me is how much it's inspired by Beksinski. I love his art, it was a shame he got stabbed lol

    • @chainslaughter231
      @chainslaughter231 2 роки тому +16

      It also is inspired by the art of Zdszislaw Beksinski. If you like Giger you will probably like Beksinski.

      ironic fact...saw actually is the way to save the guy...I am not joking, if you bring him to save, he will get freed, it will lock a bit brutal but he wont get hurt much, his body will be intact, and we will have to bring him to the thing that will put stuff on his hand.

    @Ghostly_One1 2 роки тому +3

    I suppose best question so far, is whether all of this machinery was biomechanical to begin with, or did it get "corrupted" or what have you over time and quite probably lack of use. Another interesting detail is that the person in the...ball for lack of a better word, clearly becomes far more awake / aware after you stick that thing onto his head. Kinda like the pain snapped him out of a daze or something.

    H.R Giger got's his inspiration for the Xenomorphs by the looks, of the creatures of the deep oceans and also by
    Zdzisław Beksiński - a polish painter and graphic artist (1929-2005) Which is just amazing. Specially in the last section of the game

  • @JannetFenix
    @JannetFenix 2 роки тому +4

    If you wonder why it looks like art, its because it does! Scorn drawn both from Giger's body/techno horror and the daunting art of Beksiński. One utilizes anatomical "monstrous" in 'humane', flesh as intricate factory line of production, the other focuses on incomprehensible, alien, otherwordly feeling of cosmic and spiritual.

    I really like the tense atmosphere, and the dark Giger / Alien look is really well done.
    Didn't expect it to be so puzzle oriented though, but maybe that's just the prologue and it's more horror later on.
    Also seeing it action, the flesh and bone aspect mixed with technology and mechanical elements actually reminded me of some Cronenberg's movies, who explored that same sort of feeling quite a bit.

  • @TheDreamerExtreme
    @TheDreamerExtreme 2 роки тому +10

    My only gripe with this is that it's hard to tell what in the environment you can interact with since it's always the same color palette; nothing really sticks out unless you examine every single thing. Other than that, dang, I'm so glad you played this. Don't know if you're planning to play the final game, but that'd be awesome. It's the right kind of unnerving, especially with a game with no dialogue.

    Welonz you should see the 1979 Alien movie if you haven't already. It is a classic masterpiece of horror and suspense. The atmosphere is deep and there are no cheap jumpscares (one earned though ;d). It would also prepare you for the Alien Isolation playthrough that we know you are preparing for us 😜

      Yes I completely agree! I have never been able to watch horror movies, but I ended up watching a let's play of Alien Isolation and then my friend who is a huge classic movie fan convinced me to watch Alien with her. And I really enjoyed it! (Plus it was fun to see how the game was so true to the aesthetic of the movie).

    If the game doesn't switch up its themes in the full release, your brain will eventually filter out the creepiness and the game might just turn into a run-of-the-mill puzzler.

    First off: You have a fantastic streaming voice, and it was your voice that kept me hooked on this preview. As the linear aspect of the game and its repeated backdrops kinda bored me. Everything, just looked way too samey and one note in terms of color. If the scenery is does not diversify on later stages, this repeated backdrops and color palette, along with the linear gameplay will be the game's downfall.
    I subbed because your voice and reaction is what carried this preview!

    Just body horror on its own isn't really my thing, but this game genuinely seems like it wants to do more than just gross you out. By committing to this Giger-inspired artstyle, it's really doubling down on a particular oppressive, strange but at times almost beautiful atmosphere.
