Well, it's only 18 years from Covenant to Alien, maybe David will pick up the 'This is Ripley, last survivor of the Nostromo' radio message next time.

You couldn’t have xenos all the time either, otherwise it would weaken them as an enemy. 1st season you should only have one used sparingly, to drive home their danger. For a series, I’d have something like the fall of Hadley’s Hope, stretched out long term.

el oso posted:On this latest rewatch it feels a lot like a very extended episode of Doctor Who with the Alien mythos attached to it, in the best way possible. I mean, you could argue you’ve got an amnesiac 8th Doctor in it. Amnesia is his recurring curse, after all.

SUNKOS posted:According to one of the people involved in the cancelled sequel to Covenant, Ridley was going to make the next film about Engineers chasing David for revenge after returning to their home planet and seeing what he'd done and the movie would end with the ship full of eggs crashing on LV421 and connecting the film to Alien directly. There's a high likelihood that it would have been just as bad if not worse than Covenant. It’s definitely cancelled then?

I noticed last night how good the sound design is in the game. All solid sounding ‘tschunk’s and appropriate retro beeps and boops. The echoing sounds of the Alien moving around you in the vents, even the little waterphone music cues to let you know something is up.

Hakkesshu posted:What are some hot tips for Alien Isolation if I've never played it? Walking is good, running is not (it's loud). Hide in lockers whenever appropriate. Put the game down whenever you need to. It's very tense, and you will need the release. Edit: cat tax The_Doctor fucked around with this message at 12:07 on Jan 18, 2019 |

I found out last night that it's peripheral vision isn't great when I exited a locker in medical, just as it happened to walk into the same room (the one with the medical staff's names on the board). So it was one side of the central console and I was on the other, and it failed to spot me. I noped pretty hard and went back into the locker for a few moments to breathe.

Good lord, I’ve been killed twice in that little section between the stages of medical (after the doctor is killed). Because there’s only one vent in and out, once Alan is there, he’s around for a while, and there’s very limited hiding space.

Xenomrph posted:The Alien is basically just a space cat (primal, cunning, amoral force of chaos), and it recognized that it had infringed on Jones’ territory. That's how me and my other half see the xeno in Isolation. In and out of the vents like he can't decide where he wants to be. Also, we call him Alan.

Davros1 posted:Several years ago, the Harry Potter films were released in "Ultimate Collectors Editions" with a ton of bonus feature. Each one was released on DVD and Blu-Ray, until the final two (Deathly Hollows 1 & 2). Then they just packaged it as a one BR/DVD set. The movies were included in both formats, but the docs were only on the set in the Blu-Ray format. Do they come with commentaries yet? I’d love to see some of those on the Harry Potter films.
