Not great, but not terrible.

I didn't play this game when it was released in 2008. I didn't watch the reviews, guides, or spoilers. My first playthrough was in 2021. And I'm evaluating this game by the standards of 2021. A bad port of the console version of the game. No mouse sensitivity adjustment in aim mode. Unresponsive controls and animations that can't be stopped or interrupted. The character feels like a robot, the movements are very mechanical. By the end of the game you get tired of the monotony of enemies and actions. You are becoming a robot yourself. On the positive side, I will note the great atmosphere, realistic spaceship and its elaborate structure. In conclusion, I will say that for those who have played it in the coming years after its release (2008-2010) and fans of horror this game in 2021 gets a confident 4/5 from me. For everyone else, it's a 3/5.

Could be better

I'll start with the positives. Taking the body Horror from 1982's The Thing and having the player literally cut off limbs as an effective strategy is legitimately inspired. Sure you can just try to attack normally but once you face a lot of enemies at once you'll find yourself focusing on taking them apart like this and it is deeply satisfying. You go up against a lot of beings that partially look human but clearly there's something wrong. Our bodies are not supposed to do stuff like that and it really pokes at an anxiety deep inside each of us. The physical isolation adds another layer not to mention the general survival horror with resource management and choices that have consequences. I won't pretend that I particularly cared about the plot but I'm told many others did. Walking on walls and the ceiling in zero gravity is compelling. Some of the weapons do feel like they're there to check a box. They're not at all appropriate for the way you have to play. And I wouldn't rule out that they are literally just there because some people would refuse to give this a chance if they weren't in there. Thankfully you're never forced to use them. The fact that your character takes up half the screen does lead to completely unnecessary and easily avoidable by the developers frustration. The gameplay just isn't that fun, really doesn't offer very much that we haven't seen done better. It's boring and obnoxious. The control scheme is incredibly poorly designed. I get that this was apparently a console port. It's one of the worst when it comes to this area. I managed to get through this whole thing once but I can't imagine ever playing it again. The horror is too driven by jump scares and it lacks the contrasting safe areas that for example Silent Hill, Amnesia, Penumbra and Soma master. This does get points for taking the orb on the ship from Event Horizon and putting it in something that made it feel much more gripping. There's some memorable and even creative level design.

Unspielbar

Egal ob mit Gamepad oder Maus, die Sicht wanderte bei mir immer automatisch an die Decke sodass ein Spielen nicht mal ansatzweise möglich war

Great survival horror!

I really like this game!! After playing almost all of the resident evil games, I've been needing more survival horror stuff, and this game did a great job at filling that void. I did think the game was pretty scary in the same way that resident evil 4 was scary, not so much slow paced horror, more just relentless waves of enemies as well as good pacing and atmosphere. The combat feels great, with lots of choices for guns and upgrades, and the shooting feels solid. You do have way too much ammo for it to be very scary, I ended the game with more ammo and med kits than I could ever use, as well as a max level suit with 175 HP. Since enemies only drop ammo for guns in your inventory, I just upgraded the default pistol and wide cutter weapon (the red one that's basically a wider pistol) a bunch and I never ran out of ammo for the 2 and the game became pretty easy since both of my weapons had a ton of ammo and upgrades. The game was still definetly scary and tense during some of the longer waves of enemies, I think the guesome kills where an enemy rips off your head or whatever really helps add to the feeling of horror. The graphics are great, they're also very brown like resident evil 4 funnily, this game takes a lot of cues from that game minus the silly villians and cheesey dialogue, which were some of the best parts of that game. The sound design is also great, with loud dramatic music during the fights and no music at other times, as well as some creepy whispering which I thought was a nice touch and looking back makes one of the plot twists make a lot more sense. So overall, this game has a lot of flaws with low difficulty and the serious story being right next to silly gore, but it is a great time and something every survival horror fan should check out.

Another non working GoG Tilte

Recently buying games on GoG is akin to playing russian roulette. I can well understand having issues launching really old classic games, but would expect something like Dead Space to launch at least, but no. Then you have to go through the process of attempting to make sense of the Worlds Worst Forum on Gog where your search could display anything. The same totlaly useless support page asking advising you to alter your cores on your processor, hey try messing with you directory that should be fun, maybe alter your Bios - all to get a game to work - well no thanks. This is happening on an increasing basis on this platform, the quality control is abysmal, so much so I am reluctant to use the platform again as it smack of a place going out of buisness, and down the pan. The is no option for refunds, or if there is it's well hiddne away. So buyer beware.
