megane posted:God the animation and graphical design in this game is good. The moment in the first video when the van comes round the corner and the kid looks over at it and speeds up a little. The way he over-balances and falls down when breaking planks off of doors. The enormous spaces you burst into. And the colors, jesus. If you screw up one of the early chase sequences one of the men shoots the kid and then calmly stands by and watches him try to feebly crawl away before he bleeds out. It's kind of hosed up!

I thought the kid was just passing out. If you look closely during the gun deaths, you can see a huge tranq dart sticking out of him. There is that one bit where, if they catch you in the water, the guy just straight-up drowns you though.

Man, I wonder what flooded everything. I'd say we were headed into some kind of sinkhole, but everything's tilting a little too far down and to the left to make that make sense.

Looking at the death reels, it looks like (to me, at least) that the dogs and the falling are the ones that flat out kill you. Also, Edmond you are a bastard for making me jump towards the end of this episode. You know what I'm talking about.

Really does seem like the whole world has it out for this kid, doesn't it? I was half-expecting some kind of big fish to just suddenly appear and swallow the sub whole, with the luck that the kid has been having.

The game is similar to the Another World in that it's beautifully and fluidly animated, has a range of interactions with a hostile world in which your constantly chased, I guess.

In their mouths there is nothing but rows of syringes filled with red-colored fast-acting sedatives. It's fine, nothing worse than a trip to the dentist.

paragon1 posted:Those deaths by dog are gnarly as all hell. Yeah, I was just thinking this. Every time we see a 'death by dog' I cringe a whole lot. It's animated so well that it looks like a little kid getting his throat ripped out and then mauled. Ugh.

Edmond Dantes posted:The 'automated' stuff looks 100% fatal as well; those harpoons on springs on the searchlights don't look too friendly. They look like taser shots to me, like the thing is meant to stun and recover the thing it shot at. But it could also be a spring to recover the shot itself and it just impales the victim.

Not to mention that if those tranq darts are designed to be used on adults, they're probably pretty deadly to a kid that size. In real life, tranq darts aren't a good non-lethal alternative to bullets, because more often than not, they're either too weak to knock a person out, or too strong to be considered non-lethal. Though with the drowning and the dog attacks, I doubt these sinister folks care too much if they accidentally kill the kid.

I don't think the Kid is anyone special from the point of view of the antagonists. He's just another person that should be a drone.

I was thinking about the reason that they were using tranqs in the starting area is because they might need it for forest critters and it was the only thing they had in hand. Or the actual reason is that the devs didn't want to straight up murder the kid via gunshot and made the ammo tranq darts so it is a bit ambiguous if the kid is dead or not, despite the kid mostly likely drowning a few times.

"Why are we shooting these kids with concentrated fire ant venom?" "Because we're getting paid 20 bucks an hour." "...would it be weird if I asked for overtime?" "For that kind of pay, it'd be weirder if you didn't."

You sure those are needles they're firing? From the size of those things, they might actually be lawn darts.

As for the faces, that's what they make those masks back in video #2 from Joking aside, I think it's just a stylistic choice; kid doesn't have a face either, and there are some workers in #2 (around the 7:20 mark) that aren't drones that don't have features either.

Well if that's what is hanging around in the water then shooting strangers on sight and making dogs attack everything that isn't you suddenly seems a lot more reasonable.

The Girl(? I don't actually know, but the hair[?] makes it look feminine to me) in the water, and what it's trying to do is one of my favorite mystery parts of the game. And this coming update (I believe) has one of my favorite setpieces.

It's interesting to think about how strong things are. Lvl 1, Drone: about same as adult human. Eg cannot toss the boy very high. Lvl 2, Boy: ripped af, however no match for... Lvl 3, Dog: (but maybe because of teeth?) Lvl eek, Girl(?): Jesus. Someone seems to be experimenting on humans, but to make what? Are the drones failures? Are we an escaped experiment with supermen? If so, what's Girl?

Ashrik posted:drat this game is so visually interesting. And then you have things like the music in the gigantic dam(?) area with the sub, or the background booming which gets louder as you approach the gate and how it changes as the gate opens and holy poo poo. Seriously, go back to the 3rd video at the 22 min mark and pay attention to how the game handles the gate opening, music and sound-wise. It's just brilliant.
