The Xenomorph state of suspended animation + Carlos Haunte Theory

[Corporal Hicks]

Once upon a time, I had it in my head that an early concept for the Aliens had been that they were a culture based around violence and sadistic nature. Talking to Val some 6 years back, sounds like I'd made it up, but I used to think that was an interesting concept.

Did you read his book?

I've picked up a lot via osmosis but no, I haven't. It's free online so I really should.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do remember that someone in the Covenant production described the Alien as a creature filled with relentless hatred, which after defeating the Neomorph and humans would kill itself.

Maybe they are like degenerate rapist Yuzhan Vong (or however its spelled). We just havent' seen them grow long enough.

And taking first place in sentences I didn't expect to read today.

Having just been turned on to Blindsight by Peter Watts, the more I like the idea that the Aliens may be highly intelligent yet lack sapience.

This book blew my mind when I first read it.
