This story is somehow the most straightforward and predictable game story I've seen in ages, and it is full of "twists". We got: - Secret society that has been "around for centuries, controlling everything" - "Next phase of Human Evolution" - Shadow warfare "Europa wasn't a terrorist attack..." - You (the player and/or player character) are responsible for the horrible things happening in the game. - The sci-fi prison you were on was actually a secret unethical experiment for a new weapon/technology. - The final boss of the horror game has as second phase that turns into a vaguely human flesh monster. - "There's only room for one person in the escape pod. I'm sorry" self-sacrifice - "It's not over yet" sequel-baiting It's almost impressive how listing the trope twists tells you almost everything that happens in the story.

I think one of the things that the first 2 dead space games I enjoyed is that they don't try to give you cutscenes that remove your immersion of the horrors of what is happening.

[@astillia6073]

Yeah and the actual cutscenes were veiled behind cool QuickTime events. The gunship fight in Dead Space 2 stands out as being cool as fuck.

[@steel5897]

They also, in particular the first game, had permanence to the locations. In DS1 you went back and forth between areas and often revisited areas as you moved through the Ishimura. This gave a sense of it being a real place, of really moving through the ship. Callisto Protocol is just different flavors of hallways with cutscenes here and there.

[@steel5897]

And also making the combat "skill based" and kind of its own mini game was a terrible decision for a horror game. If I feel like I WANT to engage enemies to get better at playing the combat then that's not a survival horror game. I should be dreading every enemy, fighting should be a last resort. Dead Space 1 was actually praised for making the player character feel like a civilian engineer with no combat experience, you were not a killing machine but rather forced to use whatever tools you can to survive. Here you're god damn marine man skillfully dodging enemy attacks like it's Punch Out.

[@yewtewbstew547]

@@steel5897 I haven't played Callisto so I cant really compare like for like, but I wouldn't say Dead Space was great in that regard either. Dead Space was an RE4 style action game first and a survival horror game second. Once you learned each enemy's combat "gimmick" you could quickly dispatch most of them even with just the basic plasma cutter. And often they'd drop more ammo/currency than you used to kill them, so you'd even profit from going out of your way to engage them. Compare that to something like Resident Evil or Silent Hill, where there was never any skill element to killing enemies. In Resident Evil you'd fire your gun at a zombie and, unless you scored a 1 in 20 critical hit, it would take the same amount of handgun bullets to kill every single time. And you'd gain no resources for killing it, you'd only benefit by making the area safer to navigate by removing an enemy. So it basically becomes a game of deciding whether you want to spend resources now, and make your path through the mansion safer, or hold onto those resources in case you need them later. That dynamic is the main defining characteristic of a survival horror game, and it barely existed at all in Dead Space.

[@somechinesedude5466]

Dead space 3 have alot cutscene in early game If there is any clue why we have alot now

[@blizzaricity7521]

One of the big problems this game has is that all the scares and story elements are just thrown at you with no prior build up or context, it’s like they just threw a bunch of ingredients at you instead of giving you a cake. The beginning of the game is literally you crash on a planet, get imprisoned and next day there is a prison riot. You might as wel just had a text scroll saying “you are in prison, you must escape, the warden is bad” and it would do the trick as well if not better than the actual beginning

Even in the case that there were no more stories to be told, i still believe that the way a story is delivered can still make it a worthwile experience to indulge in. the grafics are amazing and i do love myself a nice view in a game. i really like games like Journey and Little Nightmares for these nice views with their more stylised artstyles, but even games like Metro: Exodus and Red Dead Redemption 2, i love the beautiful grafics. it really makes it so immersive, however for me personally it needs to have something more than graphics in the mix, since for me, a game gets old real quick if the main focus is graphics. with this game, the only thing i personally appreciate, is the graphics, which makes this game really boring in my opinion. graphics to me are like spices; it enhances the meal, but you can't just have spices and call it a dish i can't lie though the idiots buying a 4 figure piece of hardware and justifying it by showing they get 3 extra frames is beyond ridiculous to me. there is literally barely any difference between the newest and the last generation lol. good take playing on the series X.

Even the setting feels completely half-baked to me; they just have a bunch of hallways, vents, and elevators with glowing decals stuck on them. There doesn't feel like there's been much thought put into "what would a space prison actually entail? what kind of infrastructure would you need to have in a prison on a frozen moon?" Like the room that's full of meat-grinder stuff because that's where they decided to tutorialize environmental kills: what could this room POSSIBLY be used for, realistically? Is it a grinding apparatus to make slop for prisoners? Shouldn't there be some kind of cooking or preservation or packaging equipment in there, then? Just a little extra thought could have made it a more interesting room and led into an interesting area, like one for cooking or food serving, or a massive fridge or freezer, or food transport chutes--something. But since it stands alone, it makes no sense and appears to have no thought put into it beyond "Well, we're making a videogame."

I don't know why, but the biophages (the zombies in this game) aren't even remotely as scary as the necromorphs in Dead Space. I can't put my finger on it, but maybe because they look too humanoid in their stature and movement, but also too deformed in faces that you cannot really see the person that the zombie was before? With necromorphs, on the other hand, you could see their faces torn apart by the rebirth, which was terrifying, since you could basically see the person that the necromorph was before death. But their stature (with the high hanging limbs and bones out) and movement seemed so off, that you could tell they were controlled by something alien. Anyway, those are my two cents.

[@julianswinton5355]

Biophages are just zombies. While necros are humans turned into horrors that tries to be efficient as possible. Just compare a slasher to a normal biophage. Also the infectors and stalkers were once human to but are more graphic than any biophage in callisto

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

two cents? buddy you've earned over a Million $ for the spot on necromorph comparison.

[@skdKitsune]

It's mostly because of the gameplay. Beating up the zombies to a pulp like you're playing punchout and the combat being the same loop every single time is just boring and not threatening at all.

[@mkzhero]

They aren't alien in how they fight and how they act. Necromorphs WHERE. They aren't as much scary as they're pitiful and disgusting. There's no variety. They don't hit hard, and they go down easy, and that's on the background of your weapons being EXTREMELY anemic (i mean most of your fighting is done with a frigging STICK! and the guns hit like a wet noodle, what's Calisto's shotgun vs dead space's brutal exposives, chainsaws, plasma cutters, etc?)... Lastly your dude dances around them like Mike fucking Tyson unlike Issac who's constantly scared shitless and is semi useless in close quarters.

[@warbossgegguz679]

I mean I just genuinely think necromorphs look significantly more Cronenbergian and inhuman than these things is the main reason + the melee gameplay makes them just overall seem like less of a threat. If you got close enough to punch a necromorph, you're already screwed. Here you literally have to get close to them. Melee can work in survival horror. Most combat in Silent Hill is melee, but SH also isn't trying to be actiony.

The insane amount of vents is probably there as a counterpart to Dead Space's elevators with how they wanted those to be "loading screens" Thing is Dead Space's elevators acted as a breather in between combat and they let you access your inventory and such while CP's vents just seem like padding and play tediously.

It's funny that this originally was going to be a PUBG spinoff, according to the Wiki. I wish I was joking. Source: The origins of The Callisto Protocol began with the formation of Striking Distance as a studio within PUBG Corporation (now PUBG Studios) in June 2019, helmed by Glen Schofield, who had previously co-created the Dead Space series at Visceral Games. The studio was created to expand the PUBG : Battlegrounds universe by creating a narrative driven game.Schofield said that when he met with PUBG Corporation where they explained their goal to expand the PUBG narrative, he already had the concept for The Callisto Protocol in mind and presented that to them and worked with them to fit his idea into their universe. However, by May 2022, Schofield stated that the game had grown to be its own story and is no longer connected to PUBG, though there remain small nods to the latter.
