[@james_tiberius_kirk73]

No other ALIEN game has even come close to recreating the sheer terror the movie has always embodied. The A.I was pure genius and still holds up today. I've been gaming for 45 years and ALIEN: Isolation is an easy Top 10 for me.

[@ChantingInTheDark]

Agreed. It's a gaming classic.

[@YOBAMUSTDIE]

Unfortunately AI of other NPCs dumb as hell and you meet them before alien. Try to toy around with group of first armed people you meet in game, they are so dumb that when you come to room in a corner with glass windows, they will stand still and will try to shoot you through glass, but glass never breaks and they never even try to move to your position, they simply not aware of glass and their shooting behavior is pretty primitive, just stand in shoot until player in vision cone is dead. Rest of their behavior tree is also pretty awful. Androids later in game uses almost same dumb ai. Alien ai also not as good. First it's cheating and it makes your attempts to track down alien unreliable because instead of rushing to actual position of player it teleports to nearby vents, so all of your attempts to make it gone other direction fails every time. Also it may teleport to opposite direction from where he was going. You may see and hear him moved far to left, assuming right is safe and minute later it will teleport next to you Also using legs and walking as main tactics fort alien was very lore breaking, as alien should stick to ceilings and attack from shadows, not walk around like idiot. People who are saying this game has good ai never played real stealth games of mid 2000th.

ABSOLUTLEY! I absolutely had to quit bc my anxiety got so bad I started having chest pains. Idk if it’s bc I saw all of the movies in the theater as they came out so the terror is just residing inside my brain but god…it never gives you a second to breath and relax. Same as the movies.

For anyone replaying this game,remember there are 2 aliens The first one is spebby, spebby likes it to be silent and alone, so don’t go making to much noise and don’t be seen or else he’ll try to kill you so his personal space is back to normal. He’s very fast, but pretty chill and likes to walk and hiss, like a cat. The second alien is Pip, Pip is a fucking asshole and wants to murk you. He’ll run to any noise that is made, and when he sees you, instead of hissing, he’ll roar, why, I dont know. Pip doesn’t like flamethrowers, like Spebby, but he’ll tank some more fuel, why, because he’s an asshole.

[@KneelB4Bacon]

The second AI is like the Director in the Left4Dead games. It selects appropriate music when the Alien is close to you and keeps the Alien from wasting time, searching for you in areas that you haven't unlocked yet. It also manages the overall tension in the game. For example, if you haven't seen the Alien in a while, the Director will nudge the Alien to look in your general area but it won't tell the Alien exactly where you are.

[@Imaculata]

Theoretically that is how it should work. But in practice, the game does send the alien exactly to where you are every few minutes. You will see the alien repeatedly coming back to the locker you are hiding in, and you'll see it instantly switching floors the moment you climb a ladder. And this really broke immersion for me. The alien AI may be complex, but it feels rather dumb.

[@masnaringquest4626]

I love horror games and movies...but for some reason, Alien is the only film that will have me up at night, feeling terrified. I think it may be because something like the Xenomorph could be out there in the vast universe, especially when you think of advanced races combining Ai with flesh and technology. I have no doubt that we ourselves will create horrors unimaginable with Ai and war. Scary shit, yet fascinating to say the least. 🥺

[@greatbrandini3967]

Not only this, but the entire design of the Xenomorph was meant to make the audience uncomfortable. The facehugger is meant to induce a "reverse oral rape" vibe, the original eggs were meant to have only 2 petals, but they too closely resembled vaginas (which was the point) and had to turn them into a 4 petal design, and the sleek black body was designed to give off a sick, twisted, dominatrix-esc look. This was all done on purpose to make men in particular extremely uncomfortable while watching this movie

[@gutz1981]

By the end I was convinced that the Alien is part of the Star Wars universe, dude had Jedi traits given how fast he ran away from the explosion at the end.

[@David-wd3vi]

Well the only reason Alien was created is because Star Wars was a commercial success. The only reason Star Wars was created Is because the team and budget commissioned to make the 10 hour long Dune epic freed up when the project fell through. HR Giger was on that original team for Dune. Most recently Hans Zimmer made the soundtrack for Dune and wanted the HR Giger designed SHRG1Z guitar.

[@Sarahpurple12]

The facehugger designs were brilliant - instead of being completely different to the alien, it actually is composed of alien 'hands' morphed together with a tongue. Even the tail bears some resemblance to the alien's tail.

[@TheKaurK]

@@jessikapiche6097 I don’t know. I thought the reason this game didn’t do as well was because after “Aliens”, everything that was added to the franchise only tanked it more and more. So when Alien Isolation came out, people thought it may have been like the other alien games that were just shooter games. The enthusiasm for the franchise just hadn’t been maintained well and because this game never achieved the popularity it deserves, the incentives are stacked against Alien Isolation 2. Which sucks because this is like one of my all time favorite games ever.

[@jessikapiche6097]

@@TheKaurK True that shooter games kind of sucks, for me anyway, but they normally sell quite well. So maybe it is a combination of many factors. Younger 'gen' don't know Alien that much, in fact i was pretty surprise to learned that most of my co-workers didn't know Alien, and only saw Aliens. When i told them about Alien, when they saw the movie, they were put off by how slow everything was and didn't care much. I was pretty pissed as i consider Alien to be one of the best movie ever done. But hey, when you combine all those factors, enthusiasm dropping like a stone because so very bad movies depicting stupid exo-scientists, stupid exo-explorers, with stupid stories, it cannot end well...

A very unique video, and so well done. That little segment of the alien around 8:38 is just great and shows that the team really strived to be faithful to the source material. They went a little overboard on the tail length, but that's just a nitpick really. I love the overviews of the outside of the ship too. Good choice of music clip.

[@angeldiaz762]

I'm thinking that as game design gets better, a new Alien game could potentially have the tail wiggle around on its own while the alien is standing in place, and feel you out if you're close enough. Even better, the tail could whack one of those small lockers, and it offering resistance from the player being in it could prompt the alien to turn around and check it

[@whiskeybuddha1995]

I beat the game on hard and it took me a while, hard in this game actually means HARD. Anyway, a couple things to note about the AI. I started playing Nightmare short after and the first thing I noticed about the advanced AI came when I crept into a lab and decided to get under a table. Now, playing on hard, hiding in a locker worked but if u didn’t lean back and hold your breath, the death cinematic quickly followed. But whenever I hid under a table, as long as there was no line of sight, he’d never find me. Fast forward to Nightmare and I creep into a lab as I hear him drop out of a nearby vent and take refuge under a table with not line of sight. He comes in, does his multiple rounds, and then leaves. Having played this before I already knew he likes to double back as if he’s baiting you to come out prematurely, so I stayed completely still. Lo and behold he comes back in and slowly walks around, finally coming to the table I was under. He walked forward toward the back of the room and then turned around and stopped; a few seconds later he peeked under the table and that was that. Only reason I remember this much detail was because of the utter shock I had when he looked under the table. I played hard mode for a good 30-35 hours and that NEVER happened. This happened within the first hour of playing Nightmare. I haven’t played another horror game with such good AI before. If anyone else has then please let me know but that was the moment I knew I could play this game over and over and never get bored

@@Ezzidio It's a lot of fun even if the difficulty gets frustrating at times. I just finished Nightmare and it was def satisfying. One thing I will note for when you try it is dont EVER hide in a locker like the easier difficulties, he'll always find you - at least that was my experience. They dont give you a map so its gonna be all motion sensor and map layout memory from previous play throughs. Be more judicious with use of the motion sensor because he can hear it from farther away especially if you keep it out too long. And lastly, while there are times you can find a spot to just wait until he's gone, you're better off if you keep moving. Thats about it, other than resource scarcity being dialed way up

I love this game, I have new underwear to prove it 😫 What a great video. What we have here is..... A hide and seek challenge at its core. You are in an area/mission. The developers then drop the AI bot in and then the seek AI takes over. They keep the animation going because they are true to their word "It doesn't know where you are". If they were cheating they wouldn't go to all the trouble of animating its searching because you may be under a trolly or in a cupboard and it truly does not know. They had to animate all of the unseen from your point of view as a player while it searches for you. BRILLIANT ! We all know the outcome when it does find you, sleepless nights 😂🤣😆

(leading to the spire).... There is a ladder behind a grill in the vent (I think that's the spot).... One more vent shaft near a terminal that also has a ladder behind a locked grill door. Like to see where those go. In the DLC, "Loose Ends" (Ransome's missions)... There is an item behind locked double doors after you get the Nostromo (3rd mission) tape. Couldn't figure out how to open those double doors. But you can see the (random) item on a shelf inside and across the room. I wonder if you can get in there... then come out of fly mode and see if there is a way in/out from there.... THat same DLC has a vent system after you get past the security check point near the exit. It also has a pair of ladders behind locked grates. Wonder where they go? Finally... The DLC's Safe Haven and Lost Contact .... see if you can track down every pickup item location. I found some in some very odd places (not seen visibly)... but I wonder if there are a few others...

I was expecting some interesting info but the video is just a footage collection with trivial details. What's the patrol scheme? What is driving IA attention and how is reacting? How are the vents interconnected? How far is the AI going when into the vents? How is the AI deciding where to go when into the vents? There's any range for hearing player activity? A video collecting this kind of info will be appreciated. Thanks!

Places everyone. Quiet. And......... ACTION!!! 3:15

Rare gem of a game thats deserves the next gen update.

[@LastPlaceHero]

Not what I thought this video would be

[@nekokami3132]

Gotta be the most detailed model of the creature ever in game

Used to love playing this game, its a real shame that there was never a sequel. After that cliffhanger ending, i expected them to make one. What an opportunity wasted

[@cpureaperheart2407]

technically it did get one, its called Alien Blackout and its a solid mobile game its like if FNaF and Alien had love child but yeah i quite like it

[@dedtruckxp]

i love how in the end of the video if you slow it down you can se the alien being force pushed of camera.... so funny.

[@SkyFly19853]

That game is like a movie between Alien and Aliens...

"Usually see the alien from afar." With my bad luck, I see that alien up close way more than I want to.

I absolutely love this game. It's my 2nd favorite game of all time (Bioshock 1 and 2 share the top spot) and no matter how many times I play it always makes me tense up. The sound design won't let you relax for more than a minute and the Xeno AI is the best hunting enemy ever coded.

[@bbbbbbb51]

Respectable top 3. I replay Bio 1 & 2 every year or two.

[@RM_VFX]

I still get PTSD from this game when I hear someone stomping on our wood hallway floors 😂

[@seanwhitehall4652]

2:40 that explains why Amanda is so good at sneaking....

I'd like to play this game with this mod! In the oldschool FPS games you could do the same thing with cheat codes. For example in Quake 1 you get this using 3 cheat commands: fly = you can fly noclip = you can walk through solid objects notarget = monsters cannot tartget you Those were nice times! Update after a year: I just watched again this video and I realized this is not a mod, it's the game's editor. :)

[@LibraYuri]

you forgot GOD mode

[@kevorka3281]

This AI is smarter than most people today!

[@simonh2011]

Amazing game! This pant shattering feeling is how Nemesis should've made you feel in the Resident Evil 3 Remake

[@YipJason]

the player not having a torso or head is hilarious cuz that's how we see devs making FPS games

[@dragonore2009]

This explains why there is no mirrors on Sevastopol, Ripley wouldn't be able to see herself.

[@EnclaveSOC-102]

5:07 the Alien was just asserting it's dominance in the vent.
