Does it have enemies you can kill? The only thing I heard about was androids or something, and even then you were burning them ... with the same flamethrower you scare the alien with. I don't think this space station has pulse gun pickups in it or whatever.

It's got humans who may try and kill you, with handguns, which you can kill with blunt objects from what I've seen. It also has crafting of items including making things with blasting caps. There are also active gas lines which do very large blasts of fire. I'm sure there are plenty of heavy machinery that operate on hydraulics which could be triggered. It is a very lethal environment, to anything.

Huh, I haven't seen that or read about it at all. If that's in there, it's weird you wouldn't ever get a gun...
It has worker droids who are creepy as shit and take a lot of pain before going down.

Alien: Isolation is great. Just spent two hours hidden in a closet while shitting my pants.

(Yes you do get guns, there are 2 or 3 types I know of so far, and yes, you can shoot people and androids, and the Alien.....)
Seriously, It's Published

Yes. I was going back and forth back and forth because the Alien was always on my path and I'm too much of a wuss. :p
The Game

Looks great, just watched Daz' Stream from the corner of my eye while doing other stuff.
It's like if the Doom3 artists got involved with a design team.

Alien : Isolation
#7830 posted by DaZ on 2014/10/09 10:28:23
About 15 hours in to this on my stream. Holy fuck balls it's great!
Seriously one of the most graphically impressive games I have ever seen on any platform. Everything is so richly detailed and the smoke / steam / fire / gas effects are in another league from anything else I've seen.
Gameplay wise it is just as polished. The game varies things up enough to stay interesting (playing the same hide and seek gameplay with the Alien for 20 hours would get very dull) and while there is always an underlying dread permeating the entire game the actual horror is very well paced out. The Alien itself is truly terrifying. Even when it's not in your field of vision you can HEAR it moving around in the air ducts above you at almost all times.
When it does appear in your view it is instant pant shitting time. Special mention has to go to it's tail physics. The tail is dragged along behind the Alien with full physics so it will knock things over, be pulled over objects and around corners. it's fucking great.
Ok I'm gushing now :P Seriously I'm loving it. The only issue I've had with it so far is that some objectives are not as clearly marked on the automap as I would like which led to some confusion at times as to what I should be doing.
+1

I only started using the map at around about mission 4. Before that I navigated by exploration/memory.

this is not a fun game, but it is a good game. worth getting if you're looking for something more from a shooter.

It is interesting how removing a "justification" for killing people in a video game suddenly turns it into disgusting to people.
-Collateral innocent civilian damage in middle eastern wargame, or GTA, or whatev : OK
-Innocent civilians without any reason or purpose: disgusting
There are innocents in the Middle East?

But that game still looks like garbage and people who buy it should go on some watch list.

The main difference between this piece of garbage that is Hatred and GTA is that the former FORCES you to kill innocents while in GTA, or any other open-ended game where you can kill people, you DECIDE to kill them.
