Alien: Isolation Collection

Absolute one of the best horror games

Got this as a freebie on Epic a while ago. After all the hype, I came away somewhat disappointed. The much-praised Alien AI is nothing to write home about. It's as basic as you can get: You run or make too much noise, the game will spawn the alien just outside of your line of sight to instakill you. I don't believe for a second that this has "adaptive AI" in any way whatsoever, it's just simple trickery achieved through scripting: Level so-and-so: Alien runs for its life at the mere sight of a flamethrower. Level so-and-so later in the game: Alien doesn't care. The talk about "adaptive" AI is all smoke and mirrors on the dev's part. Stealth in this game sucks: Alien Isolation's idea of stealth is very similar to the way stealth is implemented in, say, Fallout 3: You crouch => Congratulations, you're invisible! You walk => Oh noes, you're visible! You run => Game decides you've been naughty and sends an enemy after you. Add to that annoying QTEs, a cumbersome save system, a slew of bugs and crashes, the unbelievably silly contrivance of not letting you pick up the guns and ammo of slain enemies, borked console controls with 100 things tied to a single button, convoluted mission design where by the time you reach your goal you'll have forgotten why you went there in the first place, a crescendo of ugly, irritating graphics effects that require you to have a bottle of Ibuprofen at hand, and so on. Final verdict: You want the ultimate sci-fi survival horror experience? Get System Shock 2. You want the ultimate stealth experience? Get Thief Gold. You want survival horror against a single omniscient foe? Get White Day. If you're ok with a game that kinda tries being all of the above and doesn't get any of it quite right but kinda makes up for it with the Alien license and kool retro-futuristic aesthetics? Can't go too wrong with this one. For 10 bucks or less I'd say you'll get your money's worth. Despite its myriad shortcomings, it's still mostly a solid horror game.
