Hm, so far this game seems to be really good. Basically it's the true System Shock spiritual sequel that Bioshock pretended to be, as far as I can tell

how do you get into the italian doctor's secret stash box? you see him put something in there on the video and you can see the box itself under the raised platform but there's no prompt or anything to open

Oooooh, thanks. Should have put that together. Thought the note I saw on that was referencing him trying to prove his coffee cup wasn't mimiced, not that. lol.

this game is a joy by the way. it's a bit shameless in its inspirations but I'm so happy to see a game with real complex systems again. i really hope it's a success.

Also I want to give serious love to the game's setting, yes sure it's 'on a space station' but it may be the best realized space station in any game ever. Everything makes sense and has a place, the layout of the ship is fully realized and explorable, the detail of the environments themselves, etc, etc, really really well done.

is the Nightmare dynamic system still in the game as per the OP? just ran into a Nightmare and it doesn't really seem like it is.

ymgve posted:My encounters with the nightmare so far was when I first went to the bridge and noped the gently caress outta there when I saw him - he was just chilling there when I loaded in though and hadn't noticed me. The second encounter was when I went to the crew quarters and he was chilling out there too, decided he needed to die, so I got killed like 20 times before I finally managed to down him. I found him in the same place you did initially and killed him there. hes really not that hard if you use the combat slowdown and shotgun him close up. Nemesis this guy is not.

Rinkles posted:Are the tape computers just an aesthetic choice? A bit of retro futurism? It could've been somewhat more reflected in the in-world UI design. I'm guessing the lack of miniaturization is explained somewhere? it's part of the environmental design, it's a retrofitted 70s satellite. probably cant introduce a bunch of 2 ton tape decks into near earth orbit and it'd be too expensive to send down to earth.

I'm guessing the secret ending path will be avoiding killing any phantom or mimic that is possessing a human. only thing I can think of anyway. oh also regarding the earlier nightmare chat I ran into him on the bridge (and killed him) and then later in the fabrication lab got the message from January about how it was attracted to my neuromods or whatever so I just hid under a desk for 2 mins and never saw it. so it doesn't seem to be dynamic as it's the same two spots the other poster saw him in. I do like his movement though, the bit where he crawls under the tunnel leading from the bridge to get at you was great

Rookersh posted:You can eat them through recycle grenades. It's really finicky though. I have three powers (first level mimic, two levels kinetic explosion) and turrets just started shooting at me. Could be the 3 total or it could be that I went to a second level in the upgrade tree.

Ambaire posted:. There is of course the 'mimic small object, move thru bars path' as well, at least I think that would work there. I didn't invest in any Typhon powers for my first playthru. I don't think so, if I recall correctly they are windows too high to jump through through as a mug or whatever. what are peoples strats for dealing with voltaic phantoms. EMP grenades sort of work but are really inconsistent, and they take a ton of ammo from range. Obviously getting anywhere near them kills you very quickly. I'm thinking about getting the electrostatic resist traits just for these guys

I posted earlier that they started shooting at me at three, the last of which was a second tier in a power. so its either three or going above tier one. so no good for you.

Well shoot, it took longer than it usually does in this kind of game but I upgraded my security weapon damage and gunsmith II and got the shotgun to max damage and now I broke the difficulty. Nightmares go down in 10 hits.

Skippy McPants posted:So here's a question. Are there any static doors in this game? I'm trying to think of one, but am drawing a blank. I'm pretty sure that no matter where you are if you encounter a door, there is some way to reach the room on the other side. like I said earlier this might be the best realized environment in any game ever. the *only* thing I can spot that doesn't make logical real life sense is that there aren't nearly enough beds for everyone. or escape pods, lol

"alex: you... you're just going to give up, just going to leave? / alex (VO): looks like this wasn't the one paraphrased obviously. I could see it being something along these lines.

0451 goes all the way back to at least system shock 1, its a ray bradbury reference (obviously) also I will not be surprised to see this game get lots of 7/10. Game reviewers are idiots and there's not many big set pieces or a single QTE to be found. Maybe we'll get another game like this in another 18 years.
