Is this the perfect alien game?
>>
Knee-high obstacles and uninteresting enemy scripting doesn't make for a particularly interesting game. Much less a 'perfect' Alien game.

I almost wish I never saw that "kill no humans" trophy, because god damn were they annoying, especially the armored guy with the machine gun who never stops following you and there's no cover.

Also, the ending was a HUGE letdown, but I loved every other moment of the game. No Queen Alien? Doesn't even show you and Alien being blown out of airlock? Nope, just a cut to you floating in space the end.

It was a pretty good game. The medical bay section was the best. Had some sound issues which I found out because I have a 144hz monitor (don't know how they are related but ok). The robots were not freaky though just plain annoying.

I hate how those flimsy rubber suits make them bulletproof and stun proof.

That was great, especially if you go in blind and take it like a man.

Never gotten so much anxiety from a game before. Alien legit 10/10 scares the fuck outta me, have to start and stop playing every 30-45 minutes.

How do you think enemy AI functions in a single player game? It's scripting that reacts to certain events, positions of the player, et cetera.

There is interesting scripting that seems to nearly completely mimic a "real" enemy, and then there's uninteresting scripting that has quite a few flaws and breaks immersion/makes the game too simple.

If you were an ingame enemy, you would be the latter as you're a nigger that has no idea what he's on about.

It had good sound design and the Sevastapol looked true to the Alien movies but I didn't really like the game overall. After a couple hours the Alien was more of a pest than something to be afraid of. Once the flamethrower and molotovs came into play I just started blasting it any time it showed up so it'd go away long enough for me to do what I had to do.

fuck I love the interface designs
everything has such a weight to it, chunky keycards, levers, mechanical keyboards
gives me a raging boner
