Thanks for that!


Thanks for another great pod-cast.  It's fairly accurate.  I haven't watched the series since the first time when it was released.  I am just watching it again now as I am working on a design project.  It's playing on my iPad as I work.  Mind you, I am watching the fully linked up version which was recently released here by David's Creation.  I have to say, it's very much enjoyable.  It works as a unified film.  It's certainly not annoying me as I'm working.

I assume it's a marketing thing. Series implies more content so perhaps it's supposed to generate more curiosity views.

Yeah I don't really understand the point of making this a series.

The new Critters series is the same.  All episodes add up to 70/80 minutes.  Why not just release it as a feature?

Gonna be giving this a view soon. It'll be interesting to see the series all in one go. Felt like there were constant breaks that interrupted the flow of the Digital Series.

Just noticed that they uploaded the series to the official Alien YouTube without the IGN watermark...  Going to have to re-render my feature-length edit.

the fact that

the core consideration seems to be boyfriend/girlfriend heartbreak is kind of lame when the first two games seem much more focused on commentary regarding organized religion, cults, etc.

Did we play the same games? The entire first game is you trying to find your dead girlfriend while keeping the ship from falling apart. The second game is heavier on the religious aspect, but still features your dead ex girlfriend repeatedly trying to murder you until you can partially lobotomise yourself to get over her. The games were always about the relationships first, with the religion and world building around it.

You're not wrong, but I think I'm mostly thinking of the character in 3, the captain (it's been a while since I've played it). His inclusion turns everything into something that feels different and petty. The first two games are more psychological while the 3rd is something else. Still need to finish it.

I tried watching The Digital Series. It was a bit difficult. I've played a small portion of the game. (Got to the part where had to get a key card while avoiding the Alien) It felt jarring seeing the Amanda model. The background plate was off as well. I give them points for having the thought of it. But the way it was handled was a little subpar. Or should I say more whelmed than anything.

However, this has turned my attention to this Youtube gameplay movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbp-01epFmk

I liked it. There were obviously limitations they were working with, but is what it is and didn't ruin it for me. The way a lot of the sequences were put together was beautiful IMO, especially with the music.
