If you know anything about me, you'll know that I'm a huge fan of the Alien movies.
Growing up, I was never afraid of the aliens like what you might expect a little kid would be.
I think one of the main reasons that helped with that was the visual similarities between my Mom and "Ripley" – or Sigourney Weaver.
And even though I knew that she wasn't actually in the films,
it helped to see the physical resemblance as well in the character resemblances of like, the protective mother.
Despite my lack of fear for the aliens, I'm still very much a chicken. You'll rarely see me play games that have zombies or a lot of jump scares.
And I think the reason for that is because of my anxiety and feeling vulnerable.
Back in 2014, my run of not being afraid of the aliens came to an end with the release of this game.
Naturally, being an Alien game, I had to get it at launch. I went in really underestimating it for being scary… That was a huge mistake.
It's been four years and I haven't finished it yet. I have friends that keep asking me if I've finished it, and I always tell them "No, but I'm planning to".
The last time I played it was in November of 2014, and I think I had just finished Mission Five.
It's the beginning of October 2018, and I've avoided spoilers for four years.
And it's been weighing heavy on my mind that I haven't played it.
And it feels like I've denied myself a crucial piece of the Alien universe.
This game plays very hard on my anxiety and vulnerability.
I like the added challenge of the trophies and achievements system found on most games these days.
And I like to get trophies for the games that I really enjoy, and this is no exception.
It's gonna be really tough, but I'm gonna have to play it at least two times.
Once on Hard, then again on Easy.
So leave me any tips or suggestions, or encouragement so I can finally finish this game,
hopefully before Alien Day 2019… Wish me luck!
This is Moosh, the last player of Alien: Isolation… Signing off.
