@@kayt5987 Nah the third one was doomed since the beginning... It didn't matter if they added more suits or enemies. It couldn't capture the first game ambiance and sound design...
Ah, yes. One of the greatest games i played untill EA ruined the whole series... Dead Space 3 was OK but far from what Dead Space truely was. Thanks @Delta135Z for sharing!
Dead space 3 had potential to be horrific we saw that in the $15 awakened dlc. (Still costs that much after all this time) but all we get is an R.I.P. I suppose in the end it fits with the name. But it still stings that the fact you had to pay $15 for about an hour maybe less of gameplay just for the ending.
1:23:57 This is so nostalgic to me now, feels like I’ve been hoisted back into my younger self experiencing this game again, it’s been years and years since I played the dead space games and they have a special place amongst story games for me.
The lack of percussion, or rather rhythmic percussion, is what makes this sound so haunting to me. Rhythmic percussion creates a sense of structure and organization that (in my opinion) reminds us that someone is there and in control. Take it away and you have what feels like randomness or chaos - an unknowing feeling.
case in point - @ 1:07:16 when the drums come in, the eeriness goes away, despite there still be ambient chimes an strings being played. It feels more like an action sequence at this point.
Thanks for the time stamp, this kept playing in my head at the gym and I really wanted to hear it. So now I’m listening to it while doing cable crunches
36:06 the interesting part here is that you keep hearing these dissonant chords as long as you don't align the communication antenna's properly, if they're all correct, you hear a more harmonic version at 37:28
Completely edited: ladies and gentelmen, it is not time to mourn, dead space is coming back and coming back big time, go to their main channel and see for yourself. You will be blown out of your chair shoes and socks instantly.
I'm reading the Dead Space Martyr while listening to this . Takes the imagination to a whole another level for me. Y'all def should try it out if you haven't read the books yet
Just read it, now I’m reading the DS Salvage comic with this ambiance and it’s amazing. I love this series so much and hope with all my recent purchases that EA can see that quality will always be profitable in the long run.
19:51 can be heard both in Dead Space 1 when you enter the engine room, and also in DS2 when you enter the upper part of the unitology church, just before the encounter with Daina.
Playing Warhammer 40k, with the map of a imperial space ship, being an Astarte, and fighting against genestealers is pretty scary with this music Pd: i want DS4
Horror thrives in mystery, and Dead Space is so mysterious. Where did the Marker come from? We find out, but it only leads to more questions. That's the best kind of horror narrative. Every question is answered with three more questions.
The reason why I think deadspace is such an amazing game is because it makes you wonder about the future. It really doesn't seem that far fetch the way we treat our Earth that one day Humanity will search the stars for resources. Question is, will it make us whole?
I am SO happy basically every one of these tracks was brought back for the remake AND used in the appropriate areas we originally heard them. God I love dead space so much.
To me the scariest part of Dead Space 1 wasn't so much the jumpscares or the monsters. It was that feeling of dread walking down the dark passageways with that ambient droning choir of the dammed softly playing in the background. Knowing that this unsettling feeling in the pit of your stomach is the closest thing to peace you'll ever feel aboard this ship, and every other moment is pure terror. It really does make you feel like you're trapped and there's no escape.
