What a boring game. Glorified walking simulator why do zoomers like it? Did a YouTuber told them it's good?

It has zero horror elementsz characters are so poorly written, voice actors are so bad, and why should I care if the non scary boring robot monsters kill my protag if he's a fucking robot???

Boring pretentious shit. 2 hours in and it's so boring

have you considered that you're just low IQ

Basically this. The story doesn't make sense unless you assume the main character is neanderthal levels of dumb, and the fact that his scan was the 'base' for all others was beyond retarded.
The only positive thing was the deep sea environment.

He literally has brain damage

It's only scary if you don't understand how ctrl+X ctrl+V works

Music for the game:

You are not a robot

>>724939304 (OP)
Zoomers have never even heard of this game.

>>724939516
People with actual brain damage are way sharper than this guy.

If you think people like Simon dont exist in droves you have gone through life with your eyes closed.

>>724939304 (OP)
It's not a glorified walking sim, it's a walking sim. No wonder you don't like it, you went in with expectations of a game it never was.

People like it for the atmosphere and because it depicts human psychology well. How much of you is just your environment and what kind of nonsense are you going to come up with just to ignore the truth staring at you.

genuinely filtered lmao

Zoomers? How fucking old is SOMA? Haven't seen anyone mention this game in years.

>forgot to get it on sale
FUCK

OP is correct it's a walking sim with a decent story and visuals. Literally 0 puzzles or gameplay elements.

Filtered by what? It has two difficulties, easy and normal and the game barely has monsters

It was more AMPA than TDD but the majority of encounters were good.

you have to enjoy it as a story game, it's a twighlight zone episode where you control the camera, if you expected anything else then yeah you're going to be disappointed.
the point of simon is depicting the magical thinking humans react to terrifying unknowable concepts with. they do absolutely lay it on too thick but to be fair to fractional irl people don't usually voice their nonsensical pacifying thoughts. one aspect I do respect is that it depicts this in the context of a presumably secular worldview.

cont* it doesn't take any easy potshot at religious belief, mortality flailing in this game is a different thing.

I watched the LP of 2BFP and, while it was an intersting watch, it showed me all I needed to know about SOMA, unlike their LP of IHNMAIMS, which made me buy it to try it myself

Catherine's monologue (not really, but she does most of the talking) late in the game in the climber into the abyss is one of the best written monologues in a video game.

At least we'll stop seeing these threads by OP until he makes another game everyone else's problem

Simon is smarter than the avenger western and a genius compare the to averages brown

Hotel Samsara predictions?
Will it play in the world of SOMA at a different time as the Amnesia games do or will it be it's own thing?

Bait is so boring now.

>>724942895

Dude the writing is fucking garbage. I start game, Simon is a fucking bitch, appear somehow in underwater facility, he briefly freaks up and then goes full edgy teenager "pffftt whatever", one conversation with boring monotone Catherine after and he turns into super giddy happy anime protagonist.

It's supposed to be a horror game yet even the characters don't take it seriously. For how serious the situation is I wouldnt expect Catherine to speak so bored and Simon going "wtf all of humanity is dead and I'm in the future? Well that just happened..."

I don't know how people can think any of the themes the game touches are deep or interesting.

>>724945443
Catherine is literally a massive autist and Simon is huffing industrial grade copium by not acknowledging the ramifications of the reality he finds himself in.
The plot is not fucking rocket science.

Would the story have been better without the coinflip?

No wonder you're not enjoying a story-focused game when you don't even speak English.

>>724939304 (OP)
did you finish the game?

Skill issue

He's a brainscan of a brain damaged dude used a revived dead body
Still more capable than me I think

The genius tier scientists chosen for a deep sea mission were also coping with it
That should say enough

from the little known I predict its a high luxury survival bunker on the scorched mainland. Taking place on the same post comet impact earth as Soma

Pathos 2 never really confirmed there were no more survivors as their radio tower was destroyed during the impact. Curie, whatever the fuck happened to it, only did a immediate aftermath coastal trip before coming back and crashing near Lambda

its a brown with a two hour playtime. I doubt it ever figured out the power restart puzzle in upsilon
