Why is this game so damn comfy? Even when hiding in a locker or under a desk it's comfy as fuck.

>>339791453

>>339790304
Like how they kept the "This is how the future will look like in the 70s" look from the movies, I need to buy that game.

This game is excellent but it's so fucking intense. I still have take off my headphones whenever I get caught by the Ayylien, the screeches just get to me.
>>339791453
>but im scared
that's the point anon
>>339792519
I literally drop my controller, cover my eyes, and curl up until the screams stop before reloading my save.
>>339792264
Is this a meme now?
>>339793041
Fucking up the image with shitty screen effects is the meme
>>339791453
Do it. It's a fantastic game. the fear is the driving force and it feels amazing when you get to a spot where it feels safe. Massive rush when you escape and remain hidden.
>>339791652
I think this is maybe why i find it so damn comfy, the first 2 Alien films have that feel for me and they nailed it for this game. The audio is a massive part for me too i think.
I remember playing it when it came out, pitch black room with headphones on. My girlfriend was asleep and she woke up and i couldn't hear her because headphones and she threw a fucking pillow at me and i nearly had a heart attack.
all the game breaking bugs
What are some games that facilitate levels of comfy while still being in apparent danger?
I've never played arma but being a helicopter as a pilot or gunner seems comfy

>>339793586

>>339793181
No such thing as a perfect game, but as a fan of the alien/predator/blade runner films. CA gave me a big ol Weyland Yutani boner.
First alien game to full get what I even like about the universe.

This game is so scary and unnerving that I haven't played it in 3 months. It's the opposite of comfy.
>>339791453
Then stay on funnyjunk faggot
>>339793524
I generally don't like horror games because i can't seem to get immersed due to having that "it's a game" mentality. Even though that doesn't happen with action, RPG, shooters, anything else but horror. Maybe it's a defence mechanism that i remind myself its a game and do it too strongly that it just kills the horror for me.
but with AI it just overpowered that and i was terrified, maybe because i grew up with the films and my dad made me watch Alien when i was 5. So it's just embedded in me as a figure of pure horror.
>>339790304
You are seriously a massive faggot for using comfy to describe anything.
I bet you're fucked in the face too.
Get fucked.

The absolute mad man
>>339793271
Any game where you can get to a place where you know the AI can't get you but is still dangerous outside of that.I remember in a James Bond game I found a spot where the AI couldn't get to you but would still run around looking for you and shooting the other bots every once in a while I would go out for ammo and armor it was pretty autistically comfy.

Goddamnit /v/. This game's so good but I'm too much of a bitchnigga to keep playing without exhausting myself.
I consider myself pretty resistant to the the horror genre, should I wait until I can play it with VR?
>>339794232
Keep on chugging little nigga, you'll get through it and it'll be fun as fuck.

don't bother, vr is a meme. play it now
>>339794045
>my dad made me watch Alien when i was 5
Wow my mom made me watch Predator at like 8 or something but I mean she also showed me other shit I shouldn't have watched like the first Terminator film.
I just beat this recently and while i found it really good by the end it felt like the game had alot of padding just to make it longer. Still one of the best survival horror games i played in a long time.
>>339794496
I remember watching The Thing (1982) when it popped up on tv late one night as a child. I've never had nightmares that bad before. I think I was about 8 or 7 at the time.
is this a game where you will get lost or confused by the puzzles for a long time and it will ruin the pacing? i just want to experience all the fear

Alien Isolation was the GOTY 2014 and I will fight anyone who says otherwiseNot actually, you're entitled to your opinions, but it was MY GOTY, hands down
>>339791652
The Audio is very, very good in this game. That's a big reason
>>339794907
Easily GotY for me too anon. It's fantastic. I wish other movie inspired games would take note. I don't even want another Alien game too, it's just the once off amazing game. Maybe a sequel to Aliens or something. But i dunno.
>>339794660
The Thing is legitimately one of the best films I have ever seen
It's easily the best horror film I've seen
If you haven't watched it you need to go do that shit immediately.

>that heavy feminine breathing from the protag
>>339795035
We need a good The Thing gameYes I know there already was one, I want a modern one
i sure love the save stations beeping infinitely whenever I am close, whether I've saved or not
>>339795078
>>339795140
Yeah, it does the Resident Evil 4 thing, in which they make save points seem "comforting". I'm not sure if RE4 was the first to do that, though.
Either way, saving in Isolation was so fucking satisfying.
>>339795041
>>339794660
patrician pallet
Weird as fuck that it was arguably the only good thing that director ever made.
This game only has two flaws.
1) Small item limits for your inventory. You can carry 30 or so items in total, but only three charge packs, three ethanol bottles, three of this, three of that, but then six of this and six of that. I think it'd be a lot better if you just had 30 inventory spots and that was it. This is just for the components, by the way. The limit on crafted items and whatnot is okay.
2) The endgame is too long. The climax overstays its welcome. Right when you think you're finally finished, nope. This isn't really too much of a problem, but it really drags on, and it's non-stop in-your-face crazy Alien bullshit. It'd be nicer if the game was like fifteen or twenty minutes shorter.
>>339795448
In the Mouth of Madness was decent
>>339795426
RE4 was the last RE to have nice save rooms.
>>339795448
>>339795492
Mouth of Madness is cool, I think Prince of Darkness is actually underrated.

>comfy
How? Are you not scared the whole time? I found this game stressful but fun, comfy it definitely was not.
>>339794830
It's a completely different subgenre of horror.
You can't really die in P.T. It's spooky visually and the audio's pretty jarring but there's no real fear.
In A.I., you start off against humans who are too much for you, and they're just defending themselves. Then they send in the working joe androids, which despite being friendly, are too much for the humans to handle. Then the alien shows up and you're in a world of pain where you have to use distractions or cheap defense crap to buy time to get what you need to do done. This alien will follow you into EVERY room in the game with the exception of a chapter that is infested with working joes, all of whom can crush your skull while politely asking you to leave the area. THEN they have multiple aliens coming at you from all directions while facehuggers are following you into your hiding spots. Did I mention you get a game over if the aliens or the facehuggers touch you just once?

>the pill sequence
>>339795671
>and they're just defending themselves
Dude, I dunno about that. The first group of humans may have been scared shitless of course, but we're playing as an unarmed skinny woman. Even in such an extreme situation, there's no way they would shoot on sight. They'd point their guns at you, sure, and be paranoid that you might try something, but all you're trying to do when you meet the first group of hostile survivors is simply walk to the other end of the room.
>>339795639
I like all those additions except the floor reflections. I don't like the ultra reflective floor look. that slightly muted look works better for the 70s aesthetic i think.
>>339795671
Haven't got to the face huggers yet. Feel tingles on my spine just thinking about that shit.
>>339795887
Just spam melee when they're crawling towards you.
Not even shitting you, Ripley will just squish them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zx8xSLPaoc
This kind of shit is amazing
>>339795845
>>339795671
Was it me or was it kind of hard to tell what humans were cool with you or wanted to kill you. Like sometimes ellen ripley will warn them that the Alien is nearby and to hide.
>>339795845
Well, survivors usually don't shoot you immediately. They just try to scare you off, and then they shoot you if you linger.
That being said, the survivor AI is WAY too quick to shoot at you. but that's hardly a blemish on this excellent game.
>>339796012
Not if they jump from a distance.
God this game is fucking gorgeous
>>339796204
Every goddamn screenshot from this game looks like a bullshot, I don't know how they managed to make it so pretty and make it run so well, too
It runs on damn toasters
>>339796120
Yeah that was pretty bullshit too. There's a point where you walk into a room with some people, and up until this point every other person has been hostile.
When I first saw them, I just summoned the Alien and had them all killed, but then I got killed myself. When I respawned, I accidentally got myself seen by the humans, and was surprised that there was dialog between Ripley and them.
>>339796147
Dunno dude, they always seemed to shoot to kill. It might be a game mechanic which causes them to miss at first. Even if they do scare me off or whatever, they then follow me and try to shoot me dead.
>>339795473
Haven't really thought about your first point but I wholeheartedly agree with your second point. I couldn't help but to think it was silly to make you do so many things in the endgame. Could've been better but great game all around.
>>339796076

>>339794848
>Yeah dad got me to watch heaps of shit as a kid i probably shouldn't have. Alien, Predator, Terminator, Robocop. Awesome dad though in retrospect.
Bro that's what we call a good upbringing. I remember going to a kids house and his folks forbid him to play Doom, meanwhile I got my dad to buy me Douk 3D and Carmageddon.
>>339796519
You really should, ESPECIALLY if you're a fan of the Alien film
The game is excellent
>>339796584what if I've never seen any of the films
Why is this game so goddamned pretty?

You wound up here, so who won in the long run?
>>339796076
>You can trick the Alien in to killing other people
That's cool as fuck
>>339796637
Watch the first and second one now, you fucking faggot.
>>339796637
Then you need to go watch Alien
Seriously man, it's a classic, it revolutionized horror and sci-fi
You don't have to bother with any of the others, maybe Aliens if you want to see it in an action rather than horror context, but the others are pretty garbage
Do yourself a favor and watch it, you won't regret it
Actual plot spoilers:How the fuck could the aliens get to Ripley at the very end? Have they always been able to survive in space? How did one get aboard your ship at the very end?
I want to play this... but I'm too scared.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZioVdjCNwI4
Makes me calm while also dreading what will come.
>>339796764
Yeah, xenomorphs have no problem with the vacuum of space
And probably just for spook reasons, it's not like they're making a sequel
>>339796637
The game has a LOT of references to the first film. It's actually the only film that it takes into consideration as canon.
>>339796702
It's the most viable way of handing groups of hostile survivors, since as long as you don't make a sound, the Alien will have no idea you're there at all and leave once all the people are dead after a few minutes.
Sure you could sneak past them or something, but then you don't get to loot them.
I've had this game for about a year now, but I never play it since I can only play at night. The game is so fucking dark I can't see shit on my monitor when there's any light in the room.
Plus I really don't like playing certain games at night. I usually like to play something relaxing or mindless before bed.
>>339796785
Did you play Amnesia?
>>339796734

Why can't there be a sequel, bros?
>>339796785
The best part about it is that you actually can defend yourself. This isn't some Amnesia or Outlast shit where it's run and hide or die.
You can kill humans easily (although they can kill you just as well), you can EMP and wreck the robots, and you can even scare away the Alien with fire. There's loads of gadgets you can make, from noisemakers to smokescreens.
The best part about this game is that despite all these ways to defend yourself, enemies can still overcome you, but they won't if you play smart.
>>339796523
My dad knew what was up, he taught me to drive, how do pull apart and put back a rotary engine, showed me amazing movies when they terrified the fuck outa me, played street cricket/football with me, Gave me my first car which i still have today and he's always been a really decent guy. And pressured me enough to not be gaming all the time and actually get outside. Good times.
>>339797042
You don't want a sequel, Sega will just fuck it up trying to replicate what made Isolation great and failing in the process.
>>339797042
Probably because all the initial negative reviews (fuck you IGN) cost AI a good amount of money. Don't know anything beyond that though.

i still dont understand why chromatic abberation in video games is a thing.
i get headaches from this shit
>>339797193
OP here, fucking terrible game. The very first demo they gave was kinda cool, it was nice to see the films locations in game but i always thought the basic premise of the game was stupid. I mean that explosion at the end of Aliens wouldn't have left anything resembling a settlement.
And i didn't bother to play it once i saw some post release footage. It's an example of black vs white when it comes to Alien games.
>>339797391
I like it in this case, it helps give it that retro-future look
>>339797391
It also has a grain filter
>No one ever made a good coop mod for the first AVP.
>>339797391

>>339797524

Guys
What if
Alien v. Predator: Isolation
>>339798369

Not only is AVP a dumb canon, but hiding in a closet while the Alien and the Predator duke it out wouldn't be as fun as hiding from one xenomorph that wants to fuck your shit up

Tell me more about your girlfriend, anon. Was she topless during the pillow throw? Did her breasts bounce up and down sexually as this happened? Once you realized what was going on, did she offer you a consolation blowjob?
At the time of hte pillow throwing, were her pubic hair trimmed, shaved?
I wouldn't call it comfy, but the atmosphere, sound design, aesthetic, everything is fucking incredible. Astoundingly true to the look and feel of the films and it's fantastic. The game stresses me the fuck out though so it's definitely not comfy. Crazy coincidence that this thread happens when I start playing again a year and a half later since I never finished it before. Just started chapter 13.

For the babby men that that need a little push.
Besides, the game is really good about adding more tension just when the player is starting to get confident in their abilities.

Even though this is a great and quite effective horror game, I can't help but want to just shoot and kill the alien. Always makes me wish Colonial Marines was good and for a new AvP since that last one was awesome but too short and is like 6 or 7 years old.

>>339801204
Hiding in a locker for 5-10 minute increments every 30 seconds is neither challenging nor fun. Fuck off retard. Hard difficulty just makes the game a chore that takes forever and kills the fun and tension.

I really didn't mind the androids and thought it was a welcome change of pace. Honestly the shit felt like it turned into Blade Runner in the Joe chapters.

What the fuck is is this argument? Are you saying that the game should be exactly like the movie? That the Alien, the perfect hunter, should be worse at hunting you?
>>339795448
Holy shit get some taste

>he hides in lockers anywhere except the Hive.
Well, that was your problem right there.

King Kong was a good game you bitch nigga.
>>339801620
Play it. I assume you don't own anything newer.
>>339790304
what fucking wizards made this game again? This shit hits a buttery 60 fps on ultra even on my craptop, how did they do it?
>>339801852
I got a PS4 recently. But is it worth it to play on PS4 or is it just as good on PS3?
>>339801678
ayyyyy
>>339796824
Well so does Ridley Scott. It helps that Aliens is set57 years after Alien.
>>339797193
Bought it on a steam sale for $9. Absolutely massive fucking let down. The failure that is this game and the subsequent fallout out *should* have driven Randy Pitchford to commit suicide. I wouldn't have been surprised if he was in the news with a self inflicted bullet hole in his head.
Fuck Gearbox for making this abomination.

Strangely enough, the same people who do the Total War games. No clue how they managed it, let alone went from only doing strategy games to something like this and did it better than most other devs who only do horror games to begin with.
>>339797691
I'm getting into game development (actually as a 3d modeler) in hopes of being able to make a stealth action game where you play as the predator, hunting motherfuckers in a dense jungle in Africa.
>>339795448
Oh look, a contrarian faggot hipster who hates everything because it's popular.

Why is the aliens tail its dick allofasudden? is this a shoop?
This thread is just full of all the experiences I have had with this game, I got it when it came out and still haven't finished it just because its too much, I cant handle the stress, it is by far the best horror game I have ever played.
They nailed the atmosphere of the movie, the whole retro future thing, the beeps and boops of the computers the heavy thunks of them old keyboards and whirring of tape drives.
The unsettling nature of those androids especially those fold's of excess skin on their necks and that fucking alien man fuck.
Think I might jump back in and try finish it.
>>339802063
Too bad Ridley Scott royally fucked the Alien franchise with Prometheus and his likely-to-be-shitty new alien movie. Neil Bloomkamp wanted to do a fucking direct sequel to Aliens that undoes Alien 3 and Res, but Ridley had to be an asshole.
>>339802696
I bought it and played it last summer every day for a week. The game feels like its ending like 5 different fucking times, but shit keeps happening. I think the ending was way too padded for my taste.
>reach staircase area
>big windows out into space
>floating debris in space casting moving shadows
NOPE NOPE NOPE
>>339801870
>>339802225
It seems really basic on the technical side of things. Most of the objects are simple and low poly, low-res textures, not many particle effects or dynamic lighting. But despite of that the game looks great due to art direction and basic lighting tricks
>>339802225
They were fueled by undying love for the franchise, as opposed to making a profit off of it like so many others.
>>339803063
There's plenty of particle effects, lots of sparks as well as dust floating in the air. Also a lot of volumetric smoke and fog.
It'd be cool if the sequel would be like Aliens by being more action oriented. Wouldn't want another game to be all about hide and seek, but it doesn't matter because this game will never get a sequel that will be like what Aliens was to Alien. Why do the times have to be so shitty.
Also I hope that down the line somebody mods Isolation to be VR compatible. Could you imagine playing it on VR? It would be one of the most immersive video game experiences ever created because of the perfect atmosphere this game has.
I really liked the atmosphere, but im a pussy when it comes to horror. Im thinking of finding some trainer or cheats or something to make myself invincible or get rid of the alien. Any of you tried something like that?

Are you trying to prove him right?
>>339805209
the ps4's internal recording system compresses the video and it still looks good, what exactly is supposed to look bad in it?
>>339802667
The Alien's tail is actually symbolism for dick. I'm serious.
There's a deleted scene where it gets a "boner".
>>339798130
I couldn't finish playing this game, gave me terrible anxiety and alien is my favourite film and I collect xenomorph figures. I am filled with shame.
>>339802793
where can i read more about that?
i was looking forward to the Bloomkamp take on the franchise
>>339800965
How are you playing it with the Vive? It didn't have support yet I thought.
>>339794783
Alien Isolation is the only game i've seen that uses CA to greater effect, you dumb fucking hiveminded chantard
Fuck you for your stupidity, now go play the game
>>339809407
Well, AI originally had Rift support that was dropped before release and reinstated with mods Given that the Vive is super similar to the Rift in terms of basic VR stuff, to the point that Lucky Tails (i.e. the Rift's launch pack-in) and another game or two have complete compatibility layers for use with the Vive, I could see something like that happening even before official Vive support hits. He might also be using that Vorpx injector.
>alien horror game
>it's a "GO STEALTH EVERY 10 MINUTES" game
>>339795426
>I'm not sure if RE4 was the first to do that, though.
All the classic Resident Evil games did that. How old are you?
This game was amazing.
I genuinely had a great time playing it and WISH I had a VR headset for it.
it not only looks great, but the simple hide and run gameplay made it so intense.
this is me literally being cautious as fuck, and there's literally nothing happening.
It forces so much fear and paranoia that even when you're alone, you're scared.

>>339797261
I think you're confusing SEGA for KONAMI
protip: saving while the alien is moving about resets the alien's position on load so as to not ruin your saves. I learnt about this in the hive when I saved just before an alien dropped down and got me and on the reload I had a good 30 second grace time before it dropped out.
Fantastic game, but the movement is so fucking slow sadly.
>>339812468
>he doesn't know how to run without making sounds
>>339812836
No I do, I still just find the movement slow personally.
Is this game worth it if you loved the movie but don't give a damn about the gameplay?
It looks extremely repetetive.
>>339813058
Yes, but only on consoles.
>>339791453
A good way of losing fear is to die on purpose miltiple times in a row. The fear factor simply vanishes. Take a good close look at the alien, dash towards him, sprint around the map and get killed. When you grow accustomed than it's just a game of hide and seek
>>339813058
>Is this game worth it if you loved the movie but don't give a damn about the gameplay?
They managed to capture the atmosphere really good, the environments and etc
If you want more of that retro future - then yes.
>>339790304

More games need this style
>>339796345

And yet runs at 30fps on ps4

Was it really the same or just a new team in the same company?
>>339800383
>Things I never knew I wanted and needed: the post
cheers for that asshole
>>339813505
I believe it was the same team
mind you that CA had a lot to prove since just before they had released Rome 2 which had some of the shittiest and buggiest AI in existence.
so I think they wanted to prove they weren't shit tier AI devs.
>>339813147
What's wrong with the pc version?
>>339813818
I don't remember the alien having that good of an AI. It's mostly rubber banding
>>339813894
60fps. Console runs at 30, closer to the movie's 24
>>339813914
Compared to Rome 2's AI at release the Alien was fucking albert einstein
>>339800352
They just shouldn't bother playing it. May aswell play with a friend in broad dayight. (I know people who do tha and think they still deserve an opinion on the game)
