A sequel to Dead Space.

one of the GOAT

>>377473909
your mother to hate it

Not as good as the first and EA fucked the game with DLC.

>>377473909
A far better gameplay experience

A good game but somewhat different from the first. It's like the difference between Alien and Alien 2 if you've seen those movies.

>>377473909

Not *as* spooky but a lot more fun.

That fucking son though

If you play dead space 2 on the same platform you played the first one, you get the original plasma cutter. I honestly don't think there's a difference between that one and the bootleg one you make in game but I just like the way it looks

>>377474581
>EA fucked the game with DLC.
How so? Is it too bad?

>>377474496
>fantastic easter egg gun
BANG

Is Dead Space the video game equivalent to the Alien movies?

>1st game is an amazing horror game
>2nd game tones back the horror aspect, but makes up for it with great action
>3rd game has potential but is completely ruined by corporate meddling

>>377474887
yeah it's cosmetic

DS2 is better but not by that much, I think it may very well be my favorite game of all time

>>377473909
a even more mediocre sequel of a shitty franchise

>>377475257
Alien is a horror masterpiece and DS1 is just a decent horror action game.

An absolutely fantastic sequel that improves virtually every aspect of the first. Great story, great gameplay, great atmosphere

>>377475257
so I guess the 4th one will be really strange but surprisingly more entertaining then the 3rd

>>377473909
Less spooks, more action. The story is a bit more interesting too, imo.
Still unsettling but Isaac feels stronger. I consider it the best of the 3 games overall.

Also he can talk now.

>>377475706
Not before you get a few cheap Dead Space vs. Alice games first.

>>377475607

Fuck off. DS1 isn't a masterpiece, but it's certainly more than decent.

>>377475706
No anon, you skipped resurrection. The 4th one will be a campy mess that is not only subpar action but no horror.

Better gameplay, worse atmoshphere
Like bioshock 2 and bioshock

>>377475084
>I forgot about that

god dammit I was just about to play it again to try and win it without save scumming

>>377475984
PEW PEW

>>377475892
This

Also I really liked 2, probably more than 1. I thought 3 was pretty decent too.. the setting was interesting.

>>377476050
>the way isaac says it

it's just so fucking funny

>>377473909
A game that improves on all aspects except for horror. If you truly like dead space not solely because it's a spooky game but because you liked the lore, characters, and the general concept you'll like it.

For me it's the best in the series. improved in everything. Design, gameplay, lore, characters, the areas being more diverse instead of being a uniformed design like the Ishimura without truly compromising the core aspects of the game like the 3rd did.

Still one of my favorite games because it hits everything that i personally enjoy right on the head.

Post which weapons you first beat the game with
Plasma Cutter
Pulse Rifle
Ripper
Flamethrower

>>377476920
Plasma cutter, ripper and force gun all day err day.

>>377476676

I-is that a flesh sear-er, a plasma cutter?

>>377474938
Nah theres a great story DLC thats not on PC only on 360 and PS3. Then there were a bnunch of suits and stuff I got the special edition with the shitty plasma cutter that was tiny so I don't remember how many you had to buy.

>>377476920
I beat all of 1 and 2 exclusively with the Plasma Cutter. I've never tried any of the other weapons. Didn't play the third game.

It's a great game, play on survivalist with the sound up. If you got the PC version you can buy a bunch of weapons from the store for like 1 credit each, you can even resell the ammo on the mine launcher thingy and get unlimited money. It's retarded, and completely ruins the game so just ignore them.

The audio in this game is pretty amazing. I still remember the screams of civilians you hear off in the distance about 30 minutes in. It's so good at being difficult to listen to that you might want to lower it, but don't.

>>377477579

>I beat all of 1 and 2 exclusively with the Plasma Cutter. I've never tried any of the other weapons.

I did this too for my first playthroughs, and kind of glad I did. Most of the other guns feel very limp.

>>377478657
Only keep playing if you want to experience planet size cosmic horror and an ending where literally everyone dies, as in all of mankind.

>>377478325
Pulse and Seeker is the only way

all the other weapons are gimmicky novelty guns

>>377480056
>a game so shit that it they won't even bother to reboot the series, just pretend DS3 never happened if they're making a sequel

Isaac can literally stomp anyone and anything to pieces. How can anyone compete?

DAILY REMINDER THAT YOU STILL OWE HER AN EYE YOU BASTARD

I wish dead space 3 wasn't so mediocre. The ice world could have been a really cool homage to the Thing, but it was so poorly done.

>DS1 - isaac is a mute engineer who refuses to die and is a born survivor
>DS2 - isaac is a snarky mental patient turned super soldier for no reason
>DS3 - isaac is literally solid snake tier combatant and marty stu that kills planet sized necromorphs
The sequels shouldn't have continued using Isaac. The ending in Dead Space 1 is perfect. He somehow makes it, and has PTSD and nightmares/hallucinations for the rest of his life back on Earth.

>>377482038
To be fair if you survived what happens in DS1 you are essentially a bad ass super soldier anyway

Even the restoration people knew no one gave a fuck about this movie and barely touched it up for the box set

A fantastic horror / action game. Not as scary at 1, but it makes up for it in almost every other way.

To be honest, Dead Space 1 is the only game that has actually scared me. The sounds, the music, the monsters, it's the only great horror game in my opinion that doesn't have to rely on jump scares to get you. Although the jump scares add to the fear factor

You'll like the 2nd one. It has the right amount of improvements.

Force Gun saved my ass again and again when playing DS1 on the hardest difficulty.

Force Gun the best.

>>377487210
>not plasma cutters big daddy fully upgraded line gun

Fuck you.


And fuck your marker.

Hardcore mode is the single best idea for any horror game ever

>Get to the train segment with literally not one piece of ammo
>Forced to throw buckets and shit to wear the enemies down
>Leapers flying across the screen and fucking my shit
>Somehow survive
>Save my first save
>Get instagibbed by the shitkids in the next room

loses some atmosphere, but improves on pretty much everything else.

>>377487210
The first game you could do very well with a Plasma Cutter on the hardest diffculty but the 3 saves run in the second was laughably easy actually it wasn't with the force gun if you bought the DLC where you could pick it up from the first equipment box for free.

Because I know I'm gonna get killed in one of the bullshit ways. Probably from all those stupid Halo Jumps they forced in.

>>377487425
Oh right. I forgot in DS2 you got some of the DLC for free on PC because of their problem with the saving stations.

Fucking loved hardcore, it's great because it has so much real tension to it. Often horror games lose their scariness and tension because dying doesn't matter, but hardcore was such an intense experience. There's a lot on the line and you can't afford to just run in and try again. Wasting even a few extra shots can legitimately lead to hours of lost time. I still remember how terrifying some of the areas were because of how much death would have meant.

>>377487534
I played it on Xbox and the disc swap save was great but it didn't really save so you had to save somewhere eventually or you lost your progress when you turned off the box.

If you buy the "bloody force gun" dlc (+5% damage, available from the first box) and have a cutter you will have no problem with the regular fights. You will have more than enough ammo and upgrades.

The hard part from then on was the on rail or instakill action sections especially when you fly through derbis / lasers / various engines.

You know how there's a big surge of necors at the start of chapter 13? I think the game wants you to run away there. I didn't. I stood my ground and killed every. one. of. them. and fucked myself over into having basically no ammo for the rest of the game.

The best game in the series. Isaac is a bit annoying since he talks now but it is the best game in the series.

Expect lots of curb stomping.

I kinda love how they handle the loading screens by putting you into an elevator. Shit flows so well the first time I played it I didn't even realize I was half way through the game.

>>377488709
They did well with it in the first two games, but it became really apparent in DS3.

>>377473909

Dead Space = Alien

Dead Space 2 = Aliens

Dead Space 3 = Alien 3

>>377489114
is there a director's cut that makes DS3 into a decent game that's greatly superior to the original cut?

>>377489152
No.

Only the shattered dreams of what DS3 was originally going to be.

Anyone can tell me the plot of the entire series involving markers?
I know there's original and copied markers, in ds1, the red marker is trying to help you or what? Is the black marker is still on earth? Why can't the necromoprh get near the red marker? What does the marker wanted from Isaac aside being a walking blueprint? Does Altman knew the truth about the markers that's why he was assisted?

>>377473909
Just bead Dead Space last night funnily enough. I'm also looking forward to this as well, loved the first game. Haven't had this much fun with a single player experience since I last played HL1 and RE4.

>>377482038
The change in Isaac from DS1 to 2 reminds me of Gordon from HL1 to HL2. Both were just survivors trying woh beat the odds, and Gordon also become a messiah like figure in the second game. At least Isaac didn't remain mute. Gordon being mute in HL2 just made him seem like he had aspergers

Yeah. The DLC was actually good, but that's not the point.

DS2 was the first infamous case of on-disk DLC. It's pretty common nowadays but knowing they basically paywalled finished content on a disc you already paid for defeated the whole purpose of what people assumed DLC was made for, to add content at a later date.
