RE: SOMA Discussion Thread

Can't say as the gameplay did anything for me, but it's early days and I'm also not a huge fan of sci-fi horror in games (something about the sci-fi element takes away the visceral feel for some reason) - I far prefer the older settings as seen in TDD and AMFP.

But that's just personal preference and not a whine, bitch or moan. It's an observation.

RE: SOMA Discussion Thread

It looks as if the meat at the end was just to make it look as if it was a human brain, but in reality it was an artificial robot one. If he intended to reveal this to the character in the video then slicing himself like that makes sence.

Also, We hear a lot of first person dialouge in this, it makes me wonder if there will be a lot of that in the final game as well, or if it was just because this was another character anyway?

EDIT:
the "am I like Reznik" makes think, that perhaps he was not trying to show it, but rather he was trying to find out since he did not know himself, But he needed him to be there in order to confirm it.
The am I like Reznik would likely be hinting at that he went and looking at him himself before having his brain moved.

Don't know if this was aimed at me or Googol. I never said there wouldn't be a PC version, just that the PS4 was the only version hinted at, so it was best not to assume anything until we heard something official. I did say not to assume it was coming out soon though, and am actually surprised by how far in advance of the release these teasers are. Now I've got SOMA added to Cyberpunk 2077 to wait ages for! Sad

Anyway, now that we know it'll be on PC, I'm happy... but...

...they haven't said that it will be released on PC and PS4 at the same time! It could be a timed exclusive and come out on PS4 in January 2015 and on PC in December 2015 for all we know!

What? I'd rather have low expectations and be surprised than be disappointed! Cue more lively debates until that happens! Big Grin

Gosh, are you always so depressing? Smile
