Discussion This game is absolutely incredible! Spoiler
I finished the game yesterday and the crew expendable and last survivor DLC today and wow, I must say, I can see why I have always heard this game get such praise, I absolutely loved it! The graphics are beautiful, especially with the alias isolation mod, you wouldnt believe that this game is from 12 years ago by the look of it. I've never seen the alien movies before, admittedly, but im definitely sold. Im going to watch it sometime this week, I absolutely loved the xenomorph AI and it always felt like this terrifying presence, and having the flamethrower helped me feel at ease slightly... until I used it a bit too much and it would rush me and slam my head down to the ground, hurting me, but hey, at least I didn't die.
This game definitely scared the shit out of me, and like near the end stretch of the game I thought to myself 'hey, I got this, im not so scared anymore!' Until I got to the hive. Powering the reactor and just hearing all the xenos screech and everything scared me to death, and the facehuggers definitely made me shiver a bit in fear and disgust when they killed me.
10/10 game in my book. If I had one complaint, it would be mission 3 when you first get the access tuner and all the human guys there, but even then, maybe I just struggled with that because I wasn't thinking that hiding behind a box near where they were coming from was such a good idea...
