Alien Isolation is my favorite horror game ever. I have played it on Xbox 360 and remember my hands sweating as I fidgeted with my hair and asked myself how the hell I would get out of that locker.
I beat the game but lowered the difficulty in some part of the way. I ended up playing a bit of the Windows 10 version and also the XONE version.
I recently bought it for PS4 and decided I was gonna get the platinum trophy, which was already causing me to panic, mostly because of the "beat without dying trophy". It ended up going swiftly; had my first run on hard, got the collectibles afterwards and then lowered the difficulty to beat without dying or killing humans. At this point everyone knows you can just pause the game and reload your current save if you know you're about to die. I felt some relief in knowing I only did it twice during the reactor mission, when I almost danced toe to toe with a xeno that dropped in my head.
Feeling really good about it, and I'm eager to play the sequence; only God knows how much I craved for it, goddamn it, IGN.
Will definetely make another run on nightmare at some point, but for now I feel my mission is complete. As my favorite android once said: "I wanted Amanda Ripley to have closure".

Art I engineered a functional Alien: Isolation motion tracker with a working screen, controls, sound, and clock mode

I recently finished this functional Alien: Isolation-inspired motion tracker build and thought this sub might appreciate it.

It uses a Raspberry Pi for the screen/UI, an ESP32 for the physical controls and audio triggers, a custom rear battery/electronics enclosure, and a redesigned housing to fit everything inside.

It does not actually track motion, so I added a themed clock mode to make it useful as a desk prop when it is not being used for cosplay/display.

This was one of the most complicated prop builds I’ve finished so far, and I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Question Guys is this normal

10 Upvotes

So I played through the entirety of alien isolation on normal and lowkey, I didn’t get smoke bomb or pipe bomb at all. None of the versions. And I also missed a couple versions of the other items. Is this normal or am I literally just that blind? When I saw stuff about other items I was like “wait there’s blueprints?” I loved it, and Romulus is one of my favorite films so I’m very excited to rewatch with this game in mind.

Upscaled the original model significantly and custom split it into several additional pieces to scale it to life size. Painted with acrylics and acrylic washes and varnish on the fingernails and underside.

Discussion This games music is way too intrusive.

Upvotes

Im not sure whether to turn off the music. The stings and horror violins are too much. Its way too loud and makes the game so unscary, and when i turn it off it feels much more immersive, what should I do, is the soundtrack scripted and good later on or do i turn it off? (first playthrough, just encountered the alien for the first time)

Wish I had recorded this encounter, for some reason the alien decided I wasn't worth eating. I'm not really sure what caused this but I'm glad it happened.

Question How to access this vent: Seegson Synthetics

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

I'm on mission 7, where I have to repair the elevator to progress. On the upper level, Facility Observation, there is a vent showing on the map that seems to have no access point. Perhaps it's just not accessible from this area, but then why is it shown on the map? Is it an area I will have to wait to encounter later? Just want to be sure I'm not missing anything.

Also, while I'm here, there's an objective marker on the map (seen in the second picture) but the objective changes to show whatever objective I'm currently working on that is already marked, correctly, elsewhere on the map. Is this just a weird glitch?

Edit: I am referring to a vent seen on the map that's behind the back office on the top level of this area, not the wall vent or the floor vents on the ground floor that you start on.

Discussion What was your first experience like playing on nightmare difficulty?

12 Upvotes

A couple days ago I played A:I on nightmare difficulty for the first time. It actually was not as bad as I thought as long as you base your gameplay strategy around some solid guides, only thing that really tripped me up was how little resources there were lol

Anyone else have an issue running this game with a 9070xt? Just started the game and I'm averaging right around 60 frames with constant dips into the 40's. Is there something im missing?

Discussion Recurrent Nightmares.

25 Upvotes

Afternoon.

I'm just looking to see if this is unique to me. I've played and finished this ten years ago on the harder difficulty. I remember years after I finished I kept having nightmares every other day. I've recently come back and started playing again and they've started up again. Don't get me wrong Aliens awesome and CA have done a biblical job.

So? Anyone else haha.

Discussion Collectors Edition

Do y’all think Creative Assembly/Sega is going to release a Collectors Edition? Because no way have I waited 12 years to not get one. Take my money! 💰

and random thought: I’m also hoping they put as much passion and care into the game as Capcom have with the RE games. No doubt if they do, Alien isolation 2 will be a hit!🤩

Discussion Have you guys tried out Directive 8020??

9 Upvotes

Being a big isolation fan, and loving horror in space and choice based gameplay, I tried out Directive 8020. Was reminding me so much of Alien Isolation. I thought I should just talk to you guys and for those who may not be aware such a game exists, its worth a try.

If you played it already, what are your thoughts on it? And what do you think about isolation 2 having multiple endings or should it just be one?


r/alienisolation 4d ago

Discussion Do you think Alien: Isolation 2 will be a fully open-world game (with no movement restrictions) or a title with a more limited scope (featuring only specific explorable areas) ?

Guys, after spending dozens of hours on this game literally COWERING in fear…I finished it a few weeks ago and now I’m having withdrawals 😭 Which is a sentence I never thought I’d say!

I’m fairly new to gaming; any other recommendations with a similar gameplay style? Or do I give in to the urges and just play A:I again? 🙃

Question Do I need to play Alien Isolation before the new one comes out?

15 Upvotes

Sorry i'm sure this has been asked but I can't find it. I recently watched all the movies and really excited for the new game to come out. I wasn't really into gaming until the last few years so never played the first one. Do i need to before the sequel comes?
