SOMA - Transmission #1

[@BurakKILICTerran]

Dear God... It just hit me that this guy, Harry, was the one who was copied into DUNBAT ranting about the whole thing being Catherine's fault. Remember? They cut off the monologue in half, but the continuation of that possible line alligns perfectly with that of the things DUNBAT had said. This isn't gold; it's fucking pure diamond!

[@chickentoast2655]

Burak M. Kılıç wait what?

[@chickentoast2655]

​@@NuevoExistence Yes I know what the DUNBAT is; it said "I can't take this! I can't take this! I can't take this! Catherine, this is all your fault! This is all your fault!"

[@chickentoast2655]

@@NuevoExistence I don't see how they align.

[@chickentoast2655]

[@strongfork]

BRO your mind....

[@lgeass88]

Got to give it to Frictional, this is the first time i've ever experienced something that wasn't scary because of the monsters but because of the story and the implications and meaning you find within it. GOTY candidate in my books and I hate scary games.

[@Elround4]

+lgeass88 Well said. Things could, however, have turned less horrifying if done ethically. If the mind upload tech was instead directly designed by humans (instead of being halfway finished by a very alien AI) the implications could have been very appealing. That said, however, I'd be more in favor of humanity using biotech to enhance itself than just entirely replacing ourselves with uploads; though said people could fare better in exploring/colonizing the rest of the solar system. P.S. What do you think if the scifi horror game called " Eclipse Phase? ""

[@daegnaxqelil2733]

he should give a try to the game however.

[@Oldmeme592]

I just dislike being scared of something not that scary.

[@awolfe725]

It's been six years since SOMA came out and it's still my favorite

[@caffeinated4671]

Suddenly the "this whole thing's amazing!" thing from the previous ARG makes sense. He thought he was on the ARK the whole time, like Robin Bass did. :C What a shitty end for poor ol' Harry V2. "I was safe, that was the whole point!" and his panicked realization that he's not on the ARK but at Lambda...very, very sad.

[@nameless-user]

I just had a "Spec Ops: The Line" moment because of this comment. I didn't need to sleep tonight, anyways.

[@EASFromTheWest]

+Decaffeinated 4671 Isn't her name Catherine CHUN? Since when was it Bass?

[@ellaelise9607]

+Decaffeinated 4671 Did you mean Robin Bass?

[@Azmoslam]

+DMXP100 What do you mean by a spec ops: the line moment?

[@nameless-user]

DarklordDaUnicorn DaThird Basically, an extremely horrifying realization. I'd explain in detail, but that would be massive spoilers for a masterpiece of a game.

[@Cornelixx]

I just finished SOMA yesterday and I would like to thank Frictional for yet another amazing game. I liked it even better than the original Amnesia, the story was spectacular and the atmosphere was great. Had a few moments where I had to pause, close my eyes and take a deep breath just so I wouldn't piss my pants. 9/10.

[@0ion]

+Cornelis Mollberger That ending too, omg. I've never been so terrified and surprised before. (no spoiler)

[@Cornelixx]

0ion I kinda saw it coming but his reaction really made it so much worse. Great ending even though you get kinda depressed.

[@elithefennecfox2351]

The ending was so sad :'(

[@daegnaxqelil2733]

i finished recently. i regret to not have played it earlier. big kudos for Frictional

[@aceyspud551]

"How long have you been here?" "Fuck _you_, lady!" XD

[@Raguleader]

+Asa Holmes Only slightly less funny than "Fucking Engineers. A wrench? A fucking wrench?!" You get a very strong vibe of "I'm surrounded by idiots" from that line.

[@TheRunningPuzzle]

literally the best game i have ever played in my life.

[@Tribune_of_Italia]

But what about Skyrim?

[@jetabyss13]

Pierce Newby that's pushing it a bit tooooo far...

[@advenue7935]

Skyrim is like the worst game I ever played, sadly I played it through the end, LOST final episode was all in all less disappointing than the skyrim experience

[@Irraptured]

Play more games.

[@VladDascaliuc]

@@Irraptured I don't quite get this answer.

that's its live-action version

JUST FOUND THIS, OH GOD YES MORE SOMA ! (@Corrupted intentional copying 6 years later, as I finished SOMA last week only - this game has had such an impact on me! )

[@themightychinful]

SOMA is a fantastic story, truly thought provoking and terrifying.

[@M4x__V]

Clearly, you can make an indie movie with soma. Your actors are pretty good. You did a good job... can't wait to see the next episode ;)

[@theshubniggurath8234]

Bonjour toi.

[@giannilyanicks1718]

it technically took place before the rest of the game events

[@Modernviking26]

As freaky and disturbing horror/sci-fi mashups go, this was pretty freakin awesome. Seriously messed with my head for a min. I would love to see this be a feature length piece, and I also liked getting to see some of the actors from other series in more serious roles.

[@daegnaxqelil2733]

not likely.

[@davidepannone6021]

I'm literally jiz*ing my pants. You guys should start a kickstarter to turn soma into a movie.

[@jethrolarson]

+Davide Pannone Literally? That's literally gross.

[@davidepannone6021]

The excitment man... the excitement. Hahaha, cheers

[@davidepannone6021]

For real? Great news

[@random3857]

Already is a Movie in the works called Soma Depth.

[@anonymousguy720]

H5 really?

[@ferarry13]

WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS?!

[@ivyssauro123]

+Syko JUST DO IT

[@Echoplex25]

+Syko because the cinematography and the script is already bad from this video. needs a lot of work as well as the acting. interesting concept tho

[@ferarry13]

siegeh25 YOU! GET OUT!

[@Echoplex25]

Syko sorry champ, but when you're learning film making you tend to notice these things

[@ferarry13]

siegeh25 well this is a minisode series... if they actually made a movie it would've looked much better

[@TheRockkyLeeProdigialys]

YES, FINALLY we are going to see all the transmissions! Loved your game Frictional. Simply AMAZING.

[@Luemm3l]

a soma movie would be awesome

[@RedstoneMiner66756]

Totally agree

[@random3857]

Already, maybe, in the works. Depth.

[@Poodleinacan]

But it would make it hard to encapsulate the feel of the game.

[@thetommytrontommyrose6497]

I think an animated film would be pretty cool, personally.

[@daegnaxqelil2733]

it's literally and already Soma the movie. it would be hard to represents the game story even in a high budget film, with the protagonist in the bodies of ladies with a robot head , chased by mutated creatures and robots

[@richar1979BetaCode]

Great! :D

[@shapejok9650]

heee yo soy un subscriptor

[@rodriguez4363]

[@seifeldineslam]

[@chiwhiner]

Just finished Soma for the first time last night and can’t get it out of my head!

[@vicariousgamer2871]

I had no idea of this series existence. So PSYCHED to watch this. Thanks so much !

[@ProdCharles]

I've tried rewinding a few times but I can't figure out what she says at 4:33 Any guesses?

[@DrNPCabd]

Perhaps she whispered "...it'll be fine...", like inaudible. Not good sound at all.

[@ellianamay7721]

+ProdCharles "It will be fine... how's the goddamn UH2 Adam?"

[@ProdCharles]

Thanks for the responses, but it looks like she's speaking before that line. Perhaps she just isn't saying anything or it was edited out.

[@TigerBaron]

+ProdCharles Or she could of just you know, sighted, since it's a lost hope, etc...

[@solidus311]

+ProdCharles Her lips just move and she says nothing before the next line.

[@DarthBiomech]

[@noisecode]

+Darth Biomech It Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The short haired lady's first three lines were just "Yeah" and it was throwing me off lol

[@hat-trick5329]

Thank you for expanding your wonderful game. I have just finished it and badly wanted more background story and guess what? I stumbled upon this! Thank you!

[@user-qc6cf2ez2k]

I love these videos so much. It was a such a great game.

[@PraetorianHiJynx]

This was actually really good. I'm currently finally playing through Amnesia, so I already wanted Soma. However, this has made me want it more.

[@lipcioful]

This guy could play Daniel from Amnesia

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

+Syriusz666 uhh what?

[@lipcioful]

i meant that this guy in black hair could play as a Daniel from Amnesia,he looks similarly to one of the artwork of him

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

Syriusz666 ahh ok. I thought you were talking about if daniel was inside one of those robots.

[@NeoChromer]

+4T3hM4kr0n! How the F you came to that conclusion xD

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

NeoChromer I dunno. The way it was phrased and how there was a talking robot in this vid.

[@tag9364]

Amazing acting. Thanks you guys for doing this!

[@tallstar513]

"How ling have you been here?" "Fuuck you lady! Gask why are we at Lambda?"

[@ahmadshahrizal9076]

They need to make a movie out of this

[@mayhare9754]

This game is hilariously underrated. Yeah, Amnesia is great, but so is SOMA. I'd go as far as say I enjoyed SOMA more because the story is deeper and makes you heavily question your actions, or what being "human" means. Definitely a 10/10 in my book.

[@MaxLebled]

Oh man! This is awesome! So most of the previous teasers (like /SOMA/archive/615b.U/ structuregel.vid) were a part of this all along, right?

[@Alex_Gol]

+MaxOfS2D They wanted to make movie called "DEPTH". I think probably they weren't successful in fulfilling this goal.

[@yester64]

Some is on my top list for the horror genre. Its so well done and everything is so well balanced. It was kind of sad that i finished it. I feel like i wanted to stay a little longer. Hope there will be some similar game coming out of this as i really like the premise. The setting under water is not that much explored in gaming. Lot of potential there. Thanks for making this game.

[@Wazgrel]

Oh come on, how did you not add metallic footsteps? I don't think there was a single station in the game with a concrete floor. Either way, really cool episode, looking forward to more!

[@RedMcCloud]

+Konstantine Rymaruk There was at least three areas on Pathos-2 that you can't visit (Pathos-2 is shaped like a Y and you only go down one of the paths/'stalks'), so it's possible this takes place in one of those areas that are unseen in game.

[@poikei8037]

Lol you really are one of those people lol

[@nathanb5579]

@Subi_fan yeah it is

[@joshuamoore4537]

Soma should be made into a Netflix Series or a Film

[@duckiechen1321]

I thought the Harry Halperin robot guy was voiced by Cryaotic for sure. it sounds so much like him! Am I the only one..?

[@graphitdaviet-0730]

The work in this game is the beast!! Congratulations!

[@Commander_Cat]

This is so good. Wish it was a movie!

[@ClubSoda98]

Came back to these as I watched JonTron's review of Dark Dungeons and spotted Trin Miller (Imogen Reed) playing a background character!

[@DrakeWingGaming]

Great quality guys, can't wait to see the rest!

[@phyrr2]

If anyone wants to know, these are the actors who are in Journeyquest from (now) Zombie Orpheus Entertainment. The Gamers: Dorkness Rising and Gamers: Hand of Fate and some others are under their belt, I highly suggest looking them up.

[@Nahte27]

I can't tell you how happy I am that this is a thing!

[@Werwulfe]

If you are not ALREADY playing this game, do yourself a favor - get moving. Pick it up. It's a thing of beauty you wont regret downloading - won't delve too much to avoid Spoilers. Even good for several playthroughs, just to try approaching things differently. Palpable tension, high-minded interactivity, superbly immersive atmospheres. 10/10.

[@luciano9755]

Oh, so is it gonna be like a short web series? I was so excited for it to be released as a movie, but I guess I'll enjoy this too..

[@Alex_Gol]

Thank you so much for adding the subtitles!

[@nymphetta]

SOMA turned into a TV series would be a huge success!

[@bickflick]

Completely missed this series. Time to learn more!

[@danielmarkovic1107]

This is pure dope

[@clintonyeung]

oh man we finally get to see all the vids from that AR website before the game came out, can't wait until i can afford to play this. Took forever to figure out the puzzles and working with others.

[@pumkin54]

Funny how in the 2100's they still use green EXIT signs like we do today :P

[@johnpooky84]

In "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan", they had similar signs at Starfleet Academy, and that was in the 23rd Century. Heck, we still use the wheel, and that's ancient technology.

[@ctdubzz]

pumkin54 I mean, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

[@roguishpaladin]

Funny thing is that we used to use red exit signs for a long time and then it changed slowly over time. It seems, based on some quick reading I did, that it is likely that the real-world will be slowly transitioning to a green pictogram style for exit signs.
