I decided to go with Bruceski's idea to make Tuesday be DS2sday and Thursday be DS3sday. This means there'll be one week near the end with no DS2 vid on Tuesday but I'll come up with something, like that Deep Space of Isaac's rear end fanfic theater I've had on the backburner perhaps! Uh, anyway, yeah, that's the plan for now, so expect a video later today. edit: Reason I say later today is because a) it's rendering now and b) Hotline Miami 2 is coming out today so I may be a bit distracted.

I could have sworn Isaac had a vision of Altman at some point during his horrific flashbacks Altman be Gazed.

It's a morgue in a Dead Space game. As soon as I knew I was going into the Unitologist's dead body storage I made sure I had 100+ rounds in my plasma cutter and said Dead Space 2 handles the whole 'why aren't there kid zombies?' bit as well as it handles putting you in near-complete darkness: it uses them to enhance the horror. You never see any actually get necromorphed (which is practically a 100% guaranteed trigger) and thus dances around the line between 'oh lord this is horrible' and 'throwing up over here.' The ending sequence is great for immediate karmic comeuppance and 'ahhhhh when will I get a break!?' factor.

I apologize for the loud thumping in the video. At that point in the stream I was eating something and my microphone interpreted me reaching over and pushing the mute button on it so you wouldn't hear me chomping away at whatever as SLAMMING A HEAVY OBJECT ON MY DESK for whatever reason. Also Blind Sally posted:You're wrong, btw, crow. Dash would re-name the Ripper the "Rend-er".

You know, in order to rejuvenate the franchise, we should crossover it with stuff, like Planescape. Altman be mazed.

This part was one of my favorite parts in Dead Space 2. Other games might've been tempted to keep Daina around and cash in on the time spent building up her character and then her inevitable betrayal. Not Visceral though, her life in the Dead Space universe is just as fleeting and fragile as any other human's; no exit-stage-left for her, no last-minute bullshit transformation, just unceremoniously gunned down and forgotten about like everyone else on the station.

Now I'm just imagining Marker Mouse, complete with that boiling screen effect from Isaac's hallucinations.

Getting unceremoniously blown out into space sort of is an "Exit, stage left" type deal, isn't it?

One big thing that makes that scene work so well? It's NOT a QTE. It's functionally similar, but everything you're doing is stuff that was established in gameplay; shoot the infected flesh, aim under pressure, mash E to exert yourself/shake off a grab, etc. You also have just enough time to do it all without it feeling like a glorified cutscene or too punishingly hard. The whole Tormentor fight and Daina's death scene is just goddamn awesome.

You don't use Stasis on the children because that would be cruel. Also, right when that gunship comes in and starts tearing the room up, I had way too good of a laugh at the look on the dude's face as he was grabbing onto Isaac still, even after Daina and his buddy got gunned the gently caress down. He's trying to hold on to him, and you can see in a singular moment him realizing just how hosed he is. The room has been vented of atmosphere, there's a ship with gatling guns just outside the window and already with a good bead on you, and the one person you're holding onto? He has an EVA-capable suit. You have clothes. The exact moment the realization hits him.

Well, that may also be the sudden imbalance in internal/external body pressures causing his eyes to bulge out, indicating immanent death via sudden exposure to the cold void of space.

Also, by the way, I said I didn't see that thing I was looking for but I found out later while reviewing the footage that in the video you actually CAN see it for a brief moment! Just not right there! First person to spot it wins nothing but the satisfaction that we both saw the thing!

I heard the Westoro Baptist Church actually became a branch of Unitology. Changed their signs to Altman hates gays. I'm sorry so, so sorry. Edit: Darn, now I noticed that in the last area you come into, the candles stay lit even as atmosphere is venting out the now-broken window.

chiasaur11 posted:Are you proposing a whole MULTIVERSE of Altmans? Make it a franchise, or at least casual spinoffs/ripoffs, like say Farmville, where Altman farms maize. And branching (ahaha) off from that, EA can co-ordinate their marketing efforts with companies like Monsanto and genetically engineer new life. I for one, look forward to the day where we can see Altman's Bees praised.

Reminds me of that time I tried to follow a dessert recipe based on an Ayn Rand character but needed another layer of egg white to make it taste right, so I had my Galt flan re-glazed.

Daina probably would have been fine if those windows weren't so vulnerable to cannon fire. It's gotta be a serious safety issue. Gonna start up a new window bulletproofing business on Titan. It'll be called Windows Be Glazed.

chitoryu12 posted:Daina probably would have been fine if those windows weren't so vulnerable to cannon fire. It's gotta be a serious safety issue. Daina's been perpetually underestimating Tiedmann ever since she got in contact with Isaac. She got what she deserved. Also the Altman puns are starting to reach critical mass. They're just converging into a giant mass of chaff with only one or two boss puns sticking their heads up to blow some limbs off of the poor readers.

someone shoot my head off so that i don't have to read them anymore edit: don't worry it won't kill me i'll just flail around a bit I like Daina, just because you already know from the very beginning that she's misleading Isaac if you played the prequel game thing. Like, they make it so unbelievably obvious that it's going to happen that I can't help but feel it was intentional all along. Even Isaac is like "ok but why are you helping me" immediately after he escapes the hospital.

Yeah, these puns are starting to wear out. Altman's puns decayed. e: on second thought I need to give my own pun a little more scrutiny. Altman appraised.
