Yeah, just like how people who produce guns rarely ever kill anyone with them. And how despite the fact blacksmiths worked by producing swords, they did not use them unless they were drafted or forced to defend their home. No idea what's weird here

Do you think any of the scientists responsible for poison gas in WWI, or the flamethrower, or napalm, or atomic weapons really thought about the actual human beings that would be killed with their weapons?

Not while they made them, usually, with the exception of atomic weapons due to just how insanely overpowered and destructive they ended up being in practice.

Of course they did. They looked at their weaponry and said "Wow! With this a single soldier could take out an entire village in under 5 minutes! Isn't that amazing?"
However, back then, Asians weren't seen as human beings, but subhumans. They had no problem with their weapons killing millions of them especially if it saved one American/European's life.

I see you've never met an engineer. They're huge pussies (and either lanky or fat) who prefer to talk out their problems because being locked to a desk for 120 hours a week at LockRatheGenBAE makes you too tired to work out, get jacked, and raise Test (attributes more likely to coincide/contribute with/to successfully defending yourself) and instead spend their time obsessing about trains or model airplanes (or games). Unless, of course, the engineer's particular subculture emphasizes traditionally masculine activities (although these are typically mutually exclusive with academic success, at least in countries that matter, because modern society is centered around individual exceptionalism and specialization due to oversaturated markets directly caused by globalism)

You are either being disingenuous or have actually not played the game. The game's entire aesthetic and plot is very obviously heavily inspired by Half-Life (and later SCP and Warhammer 40K). The exors are pretty much just vortigaunts. You need to be genuinely retarded to not see it.

I haven't played Abiotic Factor yet but I'm getting the impression that people are mistakenly saying it's "like Half-Life" just because it's got references or a vaguely similar aesthetic. They don't realize that there's countless other mods and spinoffs of Half-Life to provide a template for comparisons. Reminds me of how "roguelike" was misused by idiots for any game with permadeath, until "roguelite" kind of took off.

On the other hand it does say "Open World Survival Craft" on the store page of Abiotic Factor, which says it all. Newfags making these comparisons just don't know what they're talking about and this game is most likely of no particular interest to goldsrc fans.

There's a football sized headcrab derivative (though disappointingly not a parasite this time). The main type of aliens fire charged energy just like a vortigaunt, and even stand with a similar hunch.

true but it's still an FPS. The hook that separates it is you need to collect supplies to build your guns like a fucking NERD

The male scientists are a dead ringer for Kleiner, but if you mean Klaxxon Beat doesn't kick in, fine.

>it doesn't look like half life
The jabbering muppet mouths of the scientist models closely resemble how gldsrc did talking. And the character models themselves vaguely look like something out of 1998. Or maybe the HD pack from 2001. You're nitpicking to claim otherwise. Or getting hung up on minutia.
