>Pairing it with Predator was the best thing they could do, but it's still all too limiting and simple
The Predator was basically just an orc with super powers.
The Warhammer setting is inspired by the fiction of J. R. R. Tolkien, Poul Anderson and Michael Moorcock
The AVP game series wise is only recognize for 1 unique thing; being an FPS with multiple species campaigns like most RTS games and even then ... you don't get to play in factional campaigns with different tools for each faction like it's normal of RTS games. And FPS and melee action game wise again it's lacking.
The AVP series is a lot like Deus Ex where its main advantage is that it delivers everything in 1 game even if it's 33% weaker than the others of its genre.
They really should have did like Capcom and separated the franchise into spin offs, pretty much like Predator.
The problem with AVP was that there's no cannon fodder predators and instead like Aliens1986 the Aliens do turn into cannon fodder outside of the praetorians & predaliens and queens.
AVP1 the movie ironically tried to correct this by making each alien drone almost as powerful as the predators.
Blame! which inspired severely from Giger's Shafts, MC Escher, James Herbert's The City // Kowloon Walled City, Hellraiser could be a nice inspiration for Alien, just like many wanted the city in Alien to look like Blade Runner.
Blame! could have been better with the penisheads over the phantom of the opera masks and Japan's own theater masks.
In my tasteful opinion Blame! is the true prequel to Alien 1979 and not Prometheus+Covenant
