idk why but when i heard this guys accent in the first audio log he was in, i thought he was japanese lol.also man the flamethrower is weird, it kinda sucks. i guess it's useful for taking out little enemies and crippled enemies but idk. it seems that every other weapon in the game holds to the philosophy of 'keep that motherfucker away from me' and then the flamethrower kinda fails to follow thisi'm using the plasma cutter and flamethrower only for this playthrough. i'll try out the other guns in ng+
>>738241196The flamethrower is horrendous in DS. I think to this day I've only ever used the plasma cutter in the first game
>>738241196Yeah the flamethrower isn't that good but it's an option for the gangs of little 3 tentacle dudes who leap at you. The plasma cutter is fine for the whole game. Have fun anon, it's a banger.
One thing I thought was silly was how the fuck did a single dude wipe out the entire military ship lol. That dude is like the isaac of necromorphs.>>738241285I like how the fire turns blue when you fully upgrade it but yeah what a shame. It is kinda neat to use the alt fire and stasis together, but man the plasma cutter is an insane weapon compared to it and doesn't require as much messing around. Good flamethrowers feel rare in videogames. I heard it's really fucking good in 2 and in the remake of 1 tho.>>738241296Thanks, it's been pretty cool so far. I should look for the artbook if there is one or some kind of design document because it's so cool how almost everything in this game down to the menu options stick to the skeletal/rib aesthetic.
>>738241462>That dude is like the isaac of necromorphs.He's also one of the jobbers that rode out with you on the kellion and gets taken out in the beginning.
A couple other thoughts, I'm genuinely surprised you're not allowed to mercy kill the soldiers stuck like this, and all of the decals/logos/advertisements are really well done.>>738241530Oh what lol. That's funny.
>>738241671Yeah he's the necromorph that chases Hammond into the bridge who Hammond traps in the escape pod that jumpscares you when you go to meet Hammond. If Hammond hadn't launched the pod the Valor would have been fine. They probably had orders to kill you though.
Okay that was mildly upsetting but par for the course with horror games and everyone in this game has ten trillion death flags so I'm not surprised>>738241791Funny how things work out horribly. Actually really reminds me of system shock 1/2 in that regard.
>>738242164Hammond is a boss in this game and goes out like a boss. He's the guy in charge of the mission trying to keep his team alive with the Ishamura falling apart around you and Kendra's constant doomposting, you can really hear it in his voice. I'm not going to spoil the remake for you if you have designs for that but its biggest sin is how it recharacterizes everyone and Hammond gets it the worst.
DS1:Plasma Cutter>allDS2: Plasma Cutter> Line Gun>Pulse RifleDS3: Nobody cares about that bullshit lol
>>738242401I always found the rifle better, its like an automatic cutter that ends up having a huge enough ammo capacity to get you through entire ambushes or boss fights without reloading
>>738242164I like how mean spirited this game is sometimes. It's a lose lose situation and it constantly reminds you of it. Isaac's death animations are pretty horrifying too
>>738242401The line gun should not be that high. It's a fatter, more ammo hungry plasma cutter that only cuts horizontally. Force gun I'd rate higher, both its primary and alt fire a generally better option and doesn't have the same ammo problems.
>>738242443Yeah, damn. RIP engineer bro>>738242315>biggest sin is how it recharacterizes everyone and Hammond gets it the worst.That's a shame :\
>>738243597What was your first reaction to the Guardian necromorph (the guys who are permanently attached to the wall in later chapters
FLAMETHROWER SAVE ME I FULLY UPGRADED YOU AAAAAAA(Last pic I will post in this thread)>>738243669Honestly I just thought to myself, "Oh that's not good." They're fucked up but not like 'holy shit I'm going to die' scary to me. The normal? necromorphs with that psycho charge/leap and the skinny ones that split up into little tentacle heads do scare me a bit more. Oh and also the 2 legged ones with the long tails are creepy. It's the speed that gets me.
>>738243669Not op but mine was "I'm gonna run up on this motherfu-"
