^^^ I see dead people

I'm getting some serious Bioshock/System Shock vibes right now!!

WOW! I am already impressed.

Let's see, firstly Ypsilon then Theta and now Lambda.
ΥΦΛ
No many greek words start with ΥΦΛ, in fact I don't know any such words. So either it is an anagram or has no significance at all.

So the station is underwater. I had the wrong impression that it would be somewhere in space for some reason. I think I read that somewhere, but I guess I am wrong.

Really like the underwater terrain and the lighting. Keep going FG! The only thing that bugs me is that there are electric sparks underwater. I suppose a short circuit would look different.

Lambda is the name of the (research?) station.

I thought the name of the station is PATHOS-II

[Outrigger047]

The name of the station is PATHOS-II but it would appear to be comprised of different sectors/areas/modules named with Greek letters. Perhaps different research is done in the different areas, or they serve some other logistical purpose.

I knew it! Underwater parts. I knew it almost a year ago. Yeap, I'm proud. And I demand a cookie as I said earlier. Indeed, the next Greek letter was revealed. Maybe as BAndrew said it's a scrambled word.

Did you notice that Matrix-like ship at the end? Probably a depth exploration vessel but maybe something else.

Also, the guy talking said something about a presentation. Maybe a presentation of a new intelligent system, AI, which after some time went rogue?

Fish grunts are coming!
