RE: Official Poll Regarding SOMA's Monsters

Patrol patterns are likely very tricky to program. On the one hand if you program them to patrol at a distance you could potentially end up with a situation where the enemy is not a threat at all and you can easily lose it where it goes off to the other end of the level. And on the other hand if you program them to be too "clingy" then they can get to become a nuisance. Obviously the Alien in Isolation was criticized for being both in certain situations. It seems that Akers may also have been a bit too "Clingy".

I didn't mind Disco-Ball-Head's tracking of you, as I just accepted that it was teleporting to different areas of the Ship as you continued to progress through it.

The Screaming Woman was great because you couldn't figure out what was going on with her and all her movements
