Ask Anything About SOMA

[GameSpirit]

Hello, Thomas and all "Frictional Games" development group! I know that you receive thousands of messages from different users everyday, but I really want to ask you some questions about "SOMA".

I really like all of your games, I completed "Amnesia: The Dark Descent" more than five times and I'm going to do the same with "SOMA". That's beacuse your games tell somethink new everytime people start to play them again.

Well, won't waste your time and will start from the question I wonder most of all: how many scripts were written for this game and what the first script was like? It will be really kind of you if you answer also these questions:

If there was a script when you posted first gameplay teaser (with sapider and brain) or it was just a demonstration of H3PL features. If this teaser was posted to show one of the first scrips, what it was about?

What is "Dark Swarm" and "Mind Coral" and how did they appeared to PATHOS-2?

If there was PATHOS-1 complex. If yes, what happened with it?

If the Simon's nightmare in the beginning of the game was meant to show player how our dreams are strange. If no, was there another meaning which is more deeper?

Finally, the last question. Why did The WAU tried to save humans with both stuffing mind scans into robots and creating monsters with structure gel? How does The WAU's alternative "Ark" work? I mean humans connected with this AI with different tubes and structure gel. Why do these "people" this they're real and why they can't live without connection to The WAU's system? (Lol, it looks ike "Matrix" appeared in "SOMA")

Incredibly big thanks to you for reading my message. Looking forward to hearing some answers before I start to compkete "SOMA" at the third time. Thanks for your awesome horror games, I'm really sure that "Frictional Games" are the Kings of Horror Games!

Have a nice day!
