The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

Bravo, I say. Seeing people in hysterics was getting less and less amusing everyday.

On that note, that latest image is a bit...disappointing. It's almost like they're telegraphing relavitely huge plot details. If Reed winds up being the player's contact in the game, i'll be expecting an SS2 like ending.

On the other hand, maybe they're wittingly feeding us these as red herrings only to kick us in the gut with what they're really doing.

Or maybe i'm looking waaaaaaaaaaaay too much into that latest picture and forcibly trying to see Reed in there.

It's hard to tell through all the distortion but my initial reaction was that it's Reed on the left and someone else (Golaski?) on the right, it's probably due to them being the only two I've seen so far.

The next video should be good. It seems like this teaser is getting closer to the core of what's going on rather than just referencing the next vid.

That's what I thought during the AAMFP ARGs and teasers. But then the game came out and the story was pretty much what was written on the tin. Needless to say it was a bit anticlimactic. I'm a bit more wary of pre-launch teasers now.

I can't really see what that has to do with SOMA. Did FG make the AMFP ARGs and teasers?

Well, it was hosted on nextfrictionalgame.com, so they might have. Plus, they had experience with ARGs from the Portal 2/Justine one, so it would have made sense for them to do it for TCR.

Go FG!!!

Just 46 hours left, that will be over in no time.

What exactly is disappointing about the new image? It's the nicest looking one yet

**Alardem** · 10-10-2013, 03:59 AM

So the background picture is showing a distorted Imogen Reed? I wonder just how important she'll be to the game...

**iBobaFett** · 10-10-2013, 07:29 AM

I actually figured it was Adam, given how the text relates to "Mockingbird" in the sense that the person in the picture could either be the real Adam, or a replica of him.

However, I haven't looked too closely at the picture to see if it does actually look like him, so I'm probably wrong.
