Alien Isolation - Surprising Survival Horror (Zero Punctuation)

The even meaner and more retro version of Yahtzee, the Angry Video Game Nerd!

[@Krebons1200]

He's not exactly that mean. He says that the games he plays are a load of ass a lot, but at this point its lost all meaning. Yahtzee at least keeps his insults fresh and intelligent.

[@thecasualgamer5578]

+Krebons1200 haha your statements contradict each other my friend! I know he's mean that's why he calls the games he plays a load of ass and keeps his insults fresh and intelligent. That's part of the reason he's good at what he does

[@mrchangcooler]

My favorite part of the game was feeling like the alien could be anywhere and being scared as shit because you don't know if the alien is not a threat in one area or another and you're just walking through wondering when and where he's coming from and hoping he doesn't make you shit your pants as he pops out of a vent right in front of you. You feel like you're defenseless and could be eaten by the alien at any second, which is scary as shit.

[@tostie3110]

It's still an amazing game. I want to pick it back up once it drops in price, I sold it to a friend.

[@tomhuddleston1850]

Mr. Chang Its brilliant as well because you think any action will alert the alien. Sprinting, melee, firing your gun, at any time the alien could fuck you up. The motion tracker really made the game. Youd see the blip going crazy and start shitting yourself. The fucking robots were so cold and menacing as well, just walking towards you and thier voice/facial expression is crazy. I remember that one bit where like 10 were froze in postion like a statue then 6 or so came to live and started breaking a door in to get you. God damn. One of the best horrors ive played!

The AI for the game was actually designed with two interacting reactions trees. One of them dictates the Alien's movements while it's in the station and hunting for your tasty giblets, the other tells it the chill the eff out for a moment and go somewhere else so you can actually do something.

[@benrussell-gough1201]

Alien: Isolation, the proof (if proof were needed) that the whole Alien and Predator franchises have basically been merrily trundling down a thirty-degree incline with no-one behind the wheel for at least twenty years. THIS proves that the basic mid-budget indie movie Alien franchise look and concept still works and you don't need flashy visuals and multi-million dollar action set-pieces.

So... We have a horror game, and horror games today almost always suck, because game developers have forgotten, what "fear" is, and confused it with "action". We have a game to a movie-franchise. And movie franchise games almost always suck. And we have an "Alien" game. And "Alien" products (since the third movie) almost always suck. And we end up with a fairly excellent survival horror titel. ... How the fuck did this happen?! Are we approaching judgment day? Are we soon seeing pigs fly, rains of frogs, and a good and deep Michael Bay movie? Who knows...! The world is changing, and it scares me!

[@PlatinumIvory]

The sucking hit critical mass, divided by zero, and canceled itself out.

I liked dead space 3. I know it wasn't horrifying like it was initially, but I appreciate it for what it was.

[@TheBuckweat33]

It is NOT a horror game at all. But it is a TERROR game. That's what people get confused on. Terror is that suspense and intense feeling. Horror is that creepy feeling that insights true fear even after you leave the game. It's a good terror game but in no way is it horror.

Honestly I think handing this IP off to a couple of RTS was one of the most interesting, and best, moves made this year. I mean, honestly. Mode horror games these days are plagued by substandard monsters, who follow basic pathing and have the programming of 'see guy, make beeline'. But who better to craft intricate AI than people who've had to program the AI for something like Total War? I mean honestly, look at the AI. The Androids, Humans, and Alien all act differently. With the Androids, all i think is 'gotta break line of sight'; They're dumb, their persistent, and I remember watching one stand in a hallway for ten minutes, while I just hid under a table, hoping he would move. He didn't. Humans feel like humans; they explore, wander, try to find you. But they always go back on their paths and follow what they know. The Alien however feels like a predator. I feel like I'm being hunted; There's always variations in its movements. I can watch it look around, seemingly sniffing the air. I can see it rip through the ventilation shafts on my motion trackers, moving inhumanly fast. It's, all in all, extremely awesome.

[@CaeruleanWren]

The fact that Yahtzee can bash on even my favorite, most beloved games for a whole video and still I agree with everything he says and thoroughly enjoy the videos is pretty unique. I don't watch Zero Punctuation videos for any real information on games, but it's still the only game review series I'm willing to watch anymore.

[@Nightmare096]

I think the reason I liked this game so much (other than the reasons he stated) was that it WAS the movie. Exact same sound, set design, tech, and attire. It was perfectly nostalgic while being original.

It's immensely satisfying to get a real survival horror title for once from Isolation, and not just another 3rd person action shooter pretending to be survival horror. (*cough The Evil Within cough*)

[@KurtyTooBusy]

I think that game is more physcological thriller than survival horror

[@RubberyCat]

The KurtyTooBusy Please explain?

[@KurtyTooBusy]

RubberyCat Honoured. The start of the game had aspects of survival horror, the very first chapter at least but later chapters, as the story puzzles etc progressed, it was more physcological. The story was a mess until the later chapters e.g 8. The atmosphere wasn't really scary it was more tense. The enemies were not really scary (my opinion) but more tense.

[@itsnouse-yourswillbeastill2562]

Classy Splatter Isolation was too short/easy. I played on hard. Never ran out of ammo or craft items. Halfway in I had maxed everything. I made the xeno into my little bitch with the flamethrower. So how was this a real survival horror again?

[@itsnouse-yourswillbeastill2562]

The KurtyTooBusy I was implying the survival horror aspect was diminished by the over surplus of items laying around. Add the fact that the xeno had x-ray vision & urges to return to the same spot 5 times in one minute really kills the suspense. Is this a monster or is it super man in a suit?

[@AQUASTEEZY]

The androids weren’t scary? I ran away from one and through a door once, thought I was safe when I saw the loading symbol pop up. Suddenly the symbol went away and I thought I was safely on the other side of the door but no, no no no. The Android grabbed me through the loading screen, pulled me back into the room and proceeded to me my ass like a drum. They are terrifying.

[@happyspaceinvader508]

Credit where credit’s due… the movie “Aliens” did at least (eventually, in the Director’s Cut) introduce the concept of Amanda Ripley, without which there would have been no “Alien: Isolation”.

[@formorian5]

Every so often, Yahtzee really seems to have something on the brain when making a video. in this it was cereal bowl and shit, and in Evolve it was cake up the ass. The most prominent to me was his Just Cause 2 review, where it seemed every other scene involved a cat.

[@XenKenshin]

We learned something important from this video, folks: Never accept cereal from Yahtzee.

[@TheFluffyDuck]

I liked the length. A lot of people complained about it and the back tracking but that just added to the claustrophobia, you think a place is safe and BAM, you are shitting yourself for the next 20 minutes.

No what he means is theres only one Xenomorph type, unlike Aliens and Alien 3 where they introduced subspecies of the Xenomorphs

[@TylerInTraining]

One nice attention to detail I found is that, if you crawl around in a vent in the section right before you trap the first xenomorph in that detachable lab, you'll find a corpse that was chest-burst'd, showing that there's more than one of these things well before you find the nest in engineering. Now granted as a fan of the franchise you go into this game thinking "Okay I've seen Aliens, and in a space station this large there's no way there's only one of them running around" but it's still a cool find, and on the off-chance you've never watched the movies before playing this game it's a hell of a find.

I've seen Fanta in orange, strawberry and grape. I've never heard of Blackcurrent. It sounds delicious, though. On a related note, if you ever see lime flavored Crush soda, DON'T DRINK IT! It's awful. Tastes like someone made lime Koolaid with twice the sugar it called for, and then carbonated it. It's not just sweet, it's almost sludgy, kind of the same texture as cough syrup. X-P

[@IamMcBobb]

LaydiNite We have something similar called Limeade. It's fucking delicious, probably not as sugary as Lime Crush though. You need to try Irn-Bru too, it's a horrific shade of orange and tastes like nothing else on this earth. It outsells (or at least used to) Coca-Cola here in Scotland too.

Really? I'm not having a good experience playing through it for the first time. I feel like a lot of the game is just kind of wandering from point to point on my map never understanding where I'm going or why. I'm currently on the part where you're locking down parts of the ship to try to burn the alien I think. And I'm playing through it with a friend and I turn to the friend and asked what am I doing? To which all he could do was just read me my current objective. I think the game may have been good for when it came out because there really wasn't anything going on in the survival horror genre, but I'm playing this and just wishing it was RE7.

I know I'm late to the party but Alien: Isolation also follows the rule because it isn't a standalone title that has a subtitle for no reason. He made up the rule because of titles like Beyond: Two Souls and Lichdom: Battlemage. There is only a single "Beyond" game, (Thank god.) it doesn't need a subtitle. However Alien is a long running franchise, so telling this apart from Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection, etc. actually makes sense!

In the end what you're talking about doesn't matter though. Money is king and the consumers and companies flocking away from the diseased carcass of the gaming media industry is what matters more than how many hashtags per day we GGers pull down.

The koalas and drop-bears ate all the Fanta delivery boys.

[@BRAVOACTUAL]

These never get old.

Finally, a game that gives due respect to Giger's creation

“Games are good today” that statement didn’t age well.

[@cahillcomics918]

Alien isolation is one of my fav games ever. Im real glad he liked it

[@kylewalters82]

Blackcurrant fanta? is it a thing cause i've never seen it. D:

[@badnewswade]

That cereal bowl is going to stay with me for quite some time. BTW, congrats on your Vice piece Mr. Crowshaw - you have arrived! :-D

[@Thine_Reaper]

Did yahtzee do this before breakfast because cereal was a running theme

[@ameerhamid89]

That Predator joke at 1:12 is priceless.

[@Darman0430]

Can Yahtzee please review the "game" Five Nights at Freddy's and tell the whole of the internet that it isn't the second coming of Jesus, and that it is, in fact, a really boring piece of shit?

[@MysteriousTomJenkins]

Eh, its fun to watch people play it and freak out but it doesn't look fun at all to play, at least to me. The back story is interesting but it'd be nice if you could move around the place instead of being confined to one room. It adds to the tension but after maybe the 2nd night I think I'd like to go where the Animatronics were not expecting me to be.

[@Darman0430]

MysteriousTomJenkins I don't find waiting for low-detail furries to pop out and make a loud noise very suspenseful. Just unpleasant. And most of the back story the game has is just speculation from people reading too much into little tidbits of nothing in the game. Speculating that a game MIGHT have a story is not the same as actually HAVING a story, yknow? I'm just sick of hearing people talk about how super scary it is.

[@MysteriousTomJenkins]

Darman0430 I found it a bit suspenseful watching other people play it because I wasn't sure when something would pop up but that quickly faded after a while, especially since the videos were comedy based so I was more laughing than anything.

[@eewweeppkk]

I haven't heard anyone say it was amazing. I've heard people say they've shit their pants at it, but that can be said for the first time riding the subway as well.

[@Bluesit32]

It IS suspenseful first or second time around. Then you get to night five and six and die repeatedly and it becomes a chore to complete. And let's not even talk about 20/20/20/20 mode. You can spend hours trying to beat that, all for a pink slip and a star. It also helps if you find animatronics like those disturbing to begin with. With their vacant stares, plastered smiles, and pre-programmed speech patterns and phrases that have no bearing on the current situation. Then it's a nailbiter because you don't even like looking at them on the camera...especially when they get all twitchy. And don't get me started on Golden Freddy. It's easy enough to avoid being killed by him but his sudden appearance is still jarring.

[@angeldeb82]

So funny with all the imps in some scenes and "Press X to Piss Pants"! XD

[@alexanderstilianov]

On space no one can hear you make a positive review.

[@fugnuggets9316]

Seeing silent hill 2 mentioned for the 50th time reminds me something. How does Yahtzee feel about Kojima's Playable teaser for Silent Hills?

[@kingminthos2640]

it was scary and a bit hard. then you get the flamethrower then the tables are turned the alien becomes your bitch.

[@2012onemanarmy]

till you run out of flue

[@kingminthos2640]

i never really did just time it right and figure out how little you have to use to scare it off. but you will die a lot trying to get it right though. but after that its really simple.

[@SmokeyEdits]

2012onemanarmy the fuck is flue

[@Villain_in_Glasses]

2012onemanarmy That all important flue. Can't go without that flue.

[@hulavaultboy5935]

poplmon Napalm, or at least that's what I think it is?

[@perrycarters3113]

I have not touched this game for almost 5 years. I still sometimes have anxiety-fueled nightmares about trying-and often failing-to avoid the Xenomorph as it hunts me.

[@steampunkerkai]

Game Reviewer: Well this game had survival elements, mixed in wit- Yahtzee: Move the fuck aside, I'm gonna make hilarious jokes about random stuff while subliminally inserting my opinions into your head! Of course, sometimes is subliminal. Sometimes its me shouting "THIS GAME IS (opinion)". But its funny and you'll watch it anyway.

[@zekebrown4463]

I was going to add on to this comment but how can I add to art?

[@steampunkerkai]

Zeke Brown lol thanks :D

[@ShinobuSakurazaka]

Steampunker Kai At least Yahtzee gives his honest opinion on a game while everyone else just says whatever the publisher tells them to so they get a big fat cheque because these days there's little difference between gaming news websites and whores IMHO.

[@zekebrown4463]

***** Good point

[@lordfury18]

Steampunker Kai another good thing about Yahtzee XD he doesn't take bribes if he hates the game and oh boy does he hate alot of game's he will tell you why XD its why he hates doing COD reviews

[@CyrusBluebird]

Would the subtlety in survival horror be in making atmosphere & the use of the uncanny? If yes developers take notes and start experimenting.

[@IamNOVAone]

"Like you blindly walked into the bathroom during grandpa's birthday blumpkin." Hahaha 😂where does he come up with this stuff lol!

[@RadeonX0X]

What the hell is a blumkin anyway?!?!

[@yeenmachine206]

+Christian Young the more you know

[@timebomb4562]

i'd prefer not to know to be honest

[@tomw7266]

He got the mole kingdom analogy spot on

[@dragonstormer115]

They should make a horror game with an AI director who watches the player and adapts the game to him/her. Example: if there is a player who hides all the time then the AI director sends in monsters that can find you instantly, forcing you to fight so it pushes you out of your comfort zone and that only is stressing. Imagine that I would ask you to fly a plane, you wouldn't like it either

[@seangemmell5937]

this guy needs 1 million subs

[@Elepole]

Wow, two game Yathzee like in two weeks, what's happening ? AAA industry is actually learning from their past errors ? Is it the end of the world ?????

[@mackenziepurnell6094]

Aaaannnddd,evil within ruined it.

[@CountCocofang]

Weeeell, at least what gameplay is concerned apparently. The entire marketing strategies are still shit.

[@zstorytime]

mackenzie purnell hey look survival horror is making a come back- aaaand its gone

[@liberatusblair]

I'm from the future and have to tell you, they didn't learn from their mistakes and the world did not end, yet.

[@fragmentalstew]

Predator turning his head to the side and sweating is probably the funniest thing I've seen on this show.

[@lampsbeshady2133]

Ok this is my chance for first. 2nd! FUCK

[@BlookerG]

2:48 The first time the alien appears, it is actually in a cutscene.

[@JackLively]

+BlookerG I think he means properly, the first time it appears is when you activate a button on a computer and it droops down from the ceiling, so Amanda hides under the table for a few seconds, but there's no fanfare, or no announcement that it's going to appear, no indication until it happens and it's quite effective actually. It builds you up to hitting buttons and activating computers so many times you think "just another computer terminal" until it surprises you. Also using terminals becomes a scary task after the first appearance because of the painfully slow boot up sequence.

[@damobeck1]

+Jack Lively fuck that long ass boot up sequence.

[@kfizzledizzle8467]

The first time I saw it was after running away after it killed *minor spoiler* and then I press a button to call for transportation, it is taking forever and I'm getting restless cuz I hear creepy noises, so I turn around and then-HOLY F**KING S**T WHAT THE FU- IT WAS RIGHT BEHIND ME- HOLY S**T!!!!!!!! The spoiler guy was Axel, at least I believe that's his name.

[@damobeck1]

Kip Higginson get it memorized.

[@Keklord_]

Only just finished this game last weekend, was fucking terrifying.
