Make Us Whole EA

After completing this year's DS remake playthrough. A game that has become the definitive DS1 game for me. After playing it since launch. As it fits much better along side DS2. And is a great game for many reasons. But its not perfect and I wanted to discuss my thoughts on it (some points you might have heard multiple times). And see what other dedicated Dead Space fans feel about it. Here are my main criticisms:

- All the slashers in the remake don't charge at Isaac as much as they should. They still do it, but not enough. Like they did in the OG trilogy.

- While I appreciate the slashers having more ethnicities. I wish there were more female necromorphs. Especially with so many crew members being women. And I think the naked slasher could really use some hair and more blood. Like the OG version.

- I wish they kept in the OG armored slasher. That first appears on the mining deck. As this new version is wearing a USM Valor military RIG. Which doesn't appear for a couple chapters. And I like the old armored slasher look too.

- ​The Hunter is not as imposing as it is in the OG. One issue I think. Is its new walking animation. It makes the Hunter slouch and give a less intimidating posture. I also wish they kept its glowing eyes.

- I don't like the bright green color of the acidic bile that the Spitters and the Hivemind produce. It stands out too much from the rest of the game. A more darker mucusey green with some blood, maybe?

- Some criticisms I seen many times. That I completely agree with: Kendras reaction to the Necromorphs in chapter 1 was too calm. Dr. Mercers death was very underwhelming. Dr. Kyne as a whole was underwhelming. The ending jumpscare was underwhelming too.

- Hard and impossible mode are not difficult enough. The game should take inspiration from Dead Space 2 for its overall difficulty balance. Like ammo drop for more than weapons you use.

- The Necromorphs don't grab at Isaac enough. In my newest playthrough. I wasn't grabbed at once. In the OG games. It would occur several times. Which aligns with how you witness some characters die.

- Not really a must. By I miss Isaac having an Idle animation.

- Not a criticism but desires. I would have liked remake takes on the astronaut suit, the OG basic engineer suit, and the OG military suit. In some DLC packs. With maybe the Rivet Gun too.

I can't deny it: when Electronic Arts announced the remake of Dead Space, my first thought was: "oh, here we go again, another unnecessary remake. The original version is still great, there is only 15 years gap, the remake can't afford any evident improvement". What wrong i was...

When i watched the first gameplays.. WHOA! What was that? The atmosphere had turned more oppressive, more depth, the lights and shadows had given a renovated and better touch. The main character talked, giving him more profundity, the weapons felt more overwhelming, etc.

Motive Studio reached what i though that was impossible: create a game that respects the original, improve and expand it. My sincere congratulations.

So yeah, it was time to make justice and buy this phenomenal remake.

Regards!

Multiplayer project is grow and grow from month to month. This is just beginning!

Finally got around to playing the remake. Does anyone else feel that for a AAA game, there's a lot of bugs and quality of life issues that just bring down the experience? I'm still on my first playthrough (Chapter 11, about 10 hours in), but these are all the bugs I've encountered so far:

• Persistent audio and visual bugs, stores will sometimes have this "neon fog" effect where they emit a blinding rainbow colored smoke
• Isaac will sometimes load in and be invisible except for his gun
• The ingame inventory menu won't appear when I press TAB, and switching guns doesn't bring up the weapon wheel
• NPCs will sometimes be invisible (screenshot above, I don't even know who he killed because his victim never loaded in no matter how many times I reloaded the scene)
• Adding on, NPCs when they're invisible will have no audio, Isaac was the only one talking in this scene
• Sounds will be delayed, for example I will fire my gun or pick up an item and 3 seconds later the audio will finally catch up and play
• Enemies will sometimes be invisible, if I'm lucky they pop back in, if I'm unlucky they stay invisible and kill me
• Doors will sometimes get stuck loading and never open, trapping me inside until I restart

And then there's the weird quality of life issues and lack of polish:

• The distance and angle you can open up lockers and chests isn't the same as the distance/angle you need to be in order to pick up the items inside. Every time there's a row of lockers, I can stand still to open them but I have to move right in front of each locker to pick up each item
• Kinesis seems to prioritize grabbing items close to you rather than what you're aiming at, so I'll accidentally grab a bottle instead of an explosive, drop it, try to pick up the explosive but grab the bottle again, and repeat until I get run up on and stabbed
• Once when I was missing two sections of health, I used quickheal and used up the large healthkit in my inventory instead of the small one
• Sometimes when I'm in settings or in the in-game menu, I have to press ESC twice for the menu to respond
• Lastly, the game is too DARK. Not scary dark, but more like the contrast is set too high. I've played other darkly lit horror games, and I've never seen it as bad as this. The other DS games are practically shining in comparison. A contrast setting would have been nice to adjust this, since I don't want to just turn up the brightness.

I know I'm a few years late to the party, and from what research I've seen, most people aren't having these issues, but damn these small annoyances have been adding up and bringing my enjoyment of the game down.

Its working good audio has some crackle, messing with the settings

Took me forever to make but im just about done with it.

I heard the part 3 was bad,I haven’t played it yet actually, I’m tryna start it off with someone,I heard it was co-op

Creo que no es un bug porque en el 2 ocurría lo mismo, pero los cadáveres de algunos enemigos me desaparecen sin más y con ellos los recursos, ns si al igual que con el segundo juego hay un patch para arreglarlo o algo

Thanks to them for providing these costumes Codecow и YaBoiDB.
That part is on us, we’re just clumsy and couldn’t manage to transfer the white costume properly.

Sorry for bad editing

It's pretty sad dead space 2 didnt get a remake considering its many fans favorite entry. Ea probably had insane sales numbers they had to hit on the remake. I also think if the second one did get a remake it would sell better than the first, because its so many people's favorite. Maybe down the line it'll happen. What do you guys think? Is the dead space franchise dead?

Hey everyone! We're excited to show the cover art for the podcast.

A friend of the show has been working on these and she's done an incredible job. It's important to note these are a work in progress so details and tweaks are being finalized.

Couple weeks ago, I have made this post How long until someone fixes the traversal stutters in DSR with all reverse engineering going on ? : r/DeadSpace and then there was a legend who came, saw, and conquered.

I played dead space 1&2 and i loved them so much and i wanted my friends to experience the game themselves and most of them didn't even play the game and the others played up to the third chapter and dropped it after

Like it's so hard to get people to play this game

Been after this zip up for months. found one on Depop n snatched it up immediately.

Thanks for looking :)
