can't wait for this game👀

[@larsfrommars1378]

I think 2026 maybe

[@xenoboy7828]

I would like to see besides the Classic Xenomorph and Facehugger, Maybe some other Creatures like the Runner Warrior, Deacon or Hammerpede. Youre Idea of killing Xenomorphs could Work but i would make some diffrences like that you can only kill some lower Casts of the Hive. For example: You have the smaller ones like the Runners as example, they appear in some more closed up Areas and because they are more Thin and Smaller, you can kill them. The Hammerpedes work similar to the Facehugger but can strangle you and make you slow but can easily killed by a Flamethrower but not with a Pumpgun or Revolver because they regenerate the lost Head. The Deacon can appear in a Labratory section with the Hammerpedes and its basically searching for you around but is less intelligent and more aggressive and will Vomit Pathogen on the Floor that will Poisen youre Health, kinda like the Section with the Hospital in Alien Isolation 1 but with Traps and smaller creatures. Finally we have the Warriors that will appear on higher difficult Modes and Replace the Drones on Hard, and Nightmare Mode. They are able to withstand more Explotions and High Quality Weapons and can lose Acid when hurt by a Bomb or Pumpgun. Thats what i would like to see in the Game. Good Video 😇😊👍

[@larsfrommars1378]

Thanks a lot! I see you really thought about this :D I might do a video about possible enemy types in the future, let's see. I'd also like to see more variety. Runners would fit nicely, and a deacon in a laboratory setting sounds awesome. I swear, I hate that thing. But I don't know if I'd want a mechanic where warriors appear on higher difficulties. If a setting is build for a warrior, then that's what you should get. Changing enemy types depending on difficulty would be a bit too arcady or shooter-like, if that makes sense to you? Don't really know how to describe it. Also I would love to give the acid blood a more dynamic role than just damaging the player. More like affecting the surroundings, but that would take an immense effort to implement I guess. Next video will be an in-depth look at Amanda and what to expect of her in the sequel, with comparison to Ellen of course. Don't miss it ;)

Love the impressions of 2014!

[@larsfrommars1378]

Ah, 2014! The year when selfies were considered art and we all thought "planking" was a good idea. Glad you loved the impressions!

[@brianmooreshead]

I think you've pretty much summed up what I would like from the game. Essentially, more of the same. Maybe mix it up a bit with a different setting, like a planetary base or a prison ship. Maybe add a bit more exploration. Perhaps some side content like optional missions helping people around the facility.

[@larsfrommars1378]

Yeah, I'd like a planet as a setting, too. Exploration and side content should be balanced well with the main story in order to keep a claustrophobic feeling. Well written side quests could make the player feel their impact on how it all plays out for npcs. How big of a role should human enemies play in your opinion?

[@brianmooreshead]

​@@larsfrommars1378 I think good side content should be something that enhances the story or the in-game world. In this case something that expands on the overall lore would be fine for me. Could even be content that affects the outcome of the story for example. There has to be a reason to compel people to do side content if they put it in Human enemies is an interesting one. In film Aliens you could see the xenomorphs as just being alien creatures doing what they need to do in order procreate. You might then see the real enemy being Carter Burke. So a story with human antagonist as well as the xenomorph could be a really interesting one and one that is in keeping with the themes of the films.

[@larsfrommars1378]

I agree. Side content should fulfill a goal other than bloating runtime and keeping the player busy. "I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them f***ing each other over for a goddamn percentage". I would love to go up against the company! BTW I decided what the next Video will be about. Subscribe so you don't miss it!

[@VanGoa]

spoken like a true fan

[@xgamerunknown6414]

I agree with most of what you are saying. I don't want to be able to kill the alien. For me the alien being unstoppable was the best part. I do agree with the multiple alien thing you said. Especially since we had to escape from two aliens towards the end of the first game

[@larsfrommars1378]

I'm on another run right now and came to the infamous med bay section last night. I set myself the goal to use as few tools as I can to make it a bit harder. I really have to say that being that helpless and just to rely on the tracker, your hearing and mapknowledge was extremely fun. So I might change my mind about the killing aliens stuff 😅 I will elaborate on that when I make my video about possible enemies

[@xgamerunknown6414]

@larsfrommars1378 I think if they did it kinda like the dead space remake or dead space 2. Only the fact that the game doesn't have to load the next map having two aliens could work very well.

[@rippy4260]

Im amazed that 2-5 days before it was announced I was trying to make a whole yap thread thinking about a possible sequel not to the story of amanda but what the game was as a whole, like a retelling of the comic pre aliens where we give Newt's survival for 2 weeks in lv246 more logical, maybe a male protagonist, which is an antithesis to all the alien movies, but thats not necesary. Moving on now that I brought it up here, I think that amanda being the protagonist again has to be a bit after isolation but before aliens since supposedly she died at 65-66 from what was said, unless she is on cryo sleep and hidden away by WY and they lied to ellen, easy plot patch ig

[@larsfrommars1378]

wow, that's timing :D interesting idea! I'm only familiar with a few comics, don't know about this one. So you mean a Story where we see how Newt survived before the Marines arrived? That would be awesome to play, but maybe that's not enough for a whole game. We would instantly know that the protagonist will die and that Newt survives, and I'm not sure you could get enough runtime out of that. BUT I would love to see that as a DLC! As an hommage to Aliens

[@TheOlRazzleDazzleGaming]

I'm playing the first one at the moment. I'm really excited for a sequel!

[@larsfrommars1378]

I hope I didn't spoil anything for you! My Amanda video will probably take another week, check it out when you are done with the game :) Edit: Awesome Username you got there :D

[@anasshahid224]

Solid video! I loved the 2014 videos, that year feels like a lifetime ago now! 🤯 I agree with you, gameplay needs to be similar, they really perfected it for Isolation, perhaps slightly expanding it. And I agree with you the setting on a planet should be at the start, like a colony, leading to perhaps a space station or ship later on. And the Queen being teased early on and leading to an epic chase scene at the end would be perfect. Great idea! Getting to kill a few Aliens near the end would be a treat, that’s a great idea! And of course have to agree with you bringing back Amanda, she was the perfect protagonist, lots of stories left to tell for her. 💯 I also personally hope they bring back the Working Joes! 😬

[@larsfrommars1378]

exactly! Hard to believe the game is this old already

[@vsammy_poet]

I hope the Creative Assembly gets nailed it again, and achieves another successful game. Alien Isolation had such good atmosphere and real nervous gripping sneakings 🤠

[@larsfrommars1378]

Thanks for commenting! If they go back and really get into why the first game is so beloved, they can nail it again. If you want to hear what I have to say about Amanda as a Protagonist, klick here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHLIopSoq6qZo7M And if you wanne make my day, subscribe! :D

Best gaming news this year

[@larsfrommars1378]

To me, it's not even close. Nowadays it feels like if a game or movie does well, it gets a sequel. If not, it gets buried. But miracles can happen is it seems. Right now I'm working on a dedicated "Amanda" video, where I explore here character a bit and give a story pitch for her re-introduction. Subscribe so you don't miss it ;) and thanks for the comment!

Best decision to make the sequel

[@larsfrommars1378]

I don't think it's controversial to say that the succes of Alien: Romulus plays a big part in that decision.

[@philipford6183]

I think: new characters, new setting. WY top secret military research lab (planet side or off-world). Things go wrong (of course), and the Xeno escapes. Bug hunt ensues. One Xeno, like Isolation. A singular foe of devastating strength. New characters. Better cut scenes. This universe has been degraded by poor movies. A very tough writing assignment.

[@larsfrommars1378]

That's a tough assignment, indeed! I personally can't get enough of WY and their machinations. Give us some lore and insight into the minds of the board of directors or whatever they have. We could play as a scientist that just arrived at the lab and didn't really know what was going on. But the writers really have to work hard to make us care about the protagonist, with Amanda it was easier bc of her mother obviously
