Discussion: Monster Behavior in SOMA (Mild Spoilers)

[Romulator]

Spoiler below!

OMG what the hell was the one near the end where you open the door with eight locks on and it is standing right there!? That was terrifying but also it did not find a certain way to exploit it? In the end on my third attempt I just ran for it and never looked back! Was horrendous waiting for the next eight lock door to open whilst I could hear it coming back.

Did I miss any?

Spoiler below!

The diver is based on your sight. If it's in your Field of Vision, it stops. Turn away, it chases. Think of it like a Weeping Angel.

Everything downstairs in theta was blind. The proxies and Akers - however, Akers' hearing is slightly better.

Ha! So that is why it was terrifying and I was getting chased everywhere! Brilliant.

I had no idea that ...

...the diver worked like that. It seemed to chase me around whether or not I was looking at it or not. I concluded that it had very good hearing (as it could somewhat hear doors and normal footsteps), as well as sight. I had no idea. I just ran from one room to the other while trying to interact with the terminals. It took me a while.
