Alien 1979 one of the greatest sci fi fictions ever created. Along side with The Thing 1982 it stands against time and proves they are in whole another level.
And so we are blessed with another art that came at the right time with the right people in mind who created this masterpiece. Its not even like that its more like glorious cinema waking up before your eyes in real time. You cannot asked for better experience like this one.
So when I was playing the game I realized that it has all the flavours I wanted. Its chilling, its haunting and most importantly its traumatizing. You will come out of this saying “I have survived the horror” in big letters.
This game is still one of the best looking games out there even after 10 years it looks like fresh. Not suprising knowing how visuals impact from source material. The location of crumbling station and all those ventilation shafts and dark and moody coridors with dim and light lightning are breathtaking. All those crawling through shafts vents moments gave me Dallas moment with a flamethrower in your hands. The omage for the firts movie and other hints are just asking for them to be discovered and seen.
You play as bad as s Amanda Ripley that doesn’t need any introduction. Its pure copy of her mother. Strong fearless survivor that will kick your but.
Don’t be mistaken. The game will not give you power over anything. You will feel every weak moment you will fear your shadow. Not amount of guns (which there a lot of them) will be sustainable to face Big Chap. He is the biggest celebrity here. You will not know when or where he will come but you just will feel hes presents in every breath you take. Cat and mouse chase at its finest. Its done so well and so creative. Oh but you can say some of the scenes are scripted well…there are some moment like that too but most of the part the Xeno AI is very versatile and one of strongest features in this game. Heck I even forgot how many times Big Chap helped me to get rid of nasty humans who threatened me with guns lol. I should invite this lad for beer sometime.
Guns feels very responsive and at the same time realistic. Reloading revolver while you escaping those dead eyes working Joes is not an option you want to deal with. You will not feel powerful not even a slightest (unless you play on easy which is not recommended). Guns are just for distraction or give you some fev seconds for escape further in the shadows.
Perfecto experience for the fans from the fans of the movie. Im afraid this was lightning in the bottle. Im afraid this cannot be replicated with Alien Isolation 2. Only time will tell.

I'm glad I finally tried this out! Even for someone like me, who is not particular to sneaking games, this is a lot of fun and great for streams. Happy spooky season🖤

no no no no don't buy i didnt even see a alien
