But then not listening to feedback to give people more of what they want. It really feels like the powers that be are just throwing whatever shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. I’d rather have one game every ten years that people still talk about with respect today like Isolation than a smattering of forgettable titles. Getting new games in your franchise is a good thing unless they are consistently subpar and only further poison the well.
#ALIEN NEWS JUNE 1 SKIN#
This game is just any of the other games that various posters have mentioned with an aliens skin on it. I can’t help but sigh and give up what little hope I’ve mustered for a new game like that, or at least one interesting and compelling. It’s the unknown, the undulating shadow in the dark. I want a game that treats the xenomorph with that sort of reverence. There are two scenes when the alien is plainly in view on the screen but his design is so biomechanical you don’t even realize you’re looking at it. You can’t even see it when you’re looking right at it. It’s always one step ahead, and foils every one of their plans. All set against a seemingly unkillable, unstoppable force. The story takes its time to flesh them out before ripping that flesh off. It’s wonderfully paced, has a unique cast of Everyman characters.
