There's this game called Alien:Isolation that you could say I'm... Mildly obsessed with. Let's just say that I've seen a lot of gameplay videos and decided to keep track of them.

8/10
A solid blind playthrough by a fan of the Alien universe. Somewhat exploratory, but starts rushing more frequently towards the end of the series.

Review

5/10
Overall a little boring to watch, being a full-length unedited stream. Overly cautious gameplay, not very exploratory. Before starting, she hadn't seen the original Alien film. Partway through the playthrough she watches it and seems to gain a new appreciation for the game's setting and details.

The game audio is a little low compared to the commentary audio.

The constant distraction of audience interaction noises and watching the comment stream seems to take away from her ability to pay attention to what's going on in the game. Often the commentary will revolve around her confusion regarding what is going on in the game. Seems like she has a tight-knit group of followers; there's an inside joke about cheese in their community.

Review

6/10
Complains a lot. Tough to get through the first few videos, but gets better around video 6. Has valid criticisms, finds the xenomorph scary, and praises the graphics/look of the game.

He states that he's never seen any of the Alien films. It's slightly annoying that he doesn't seem to care about the Alien franchise at all, but it's an interesting perspective.

Episode 18 ends with Jake piecing a lot of plot information together, causing him to say, "Fuck Weyland-Yutani, man."

Hilarious, but can get intense with the yelling sometimes.
