I like how different the feel of each Hunter in dead space 1 vs 2 feel. Like in dead space 1 it has all this hype around it, you get how it was made, and you get the monologue from the unitologist, then it actually shows up, you freeze it, then you burn it, whatever. It feels kinda introduced too early and used little. Then dead space 2 IMMEDIATELY drops the Ubermorph on you with NO previous sighting of it asides from when Isaac shuts off the power. As soon as you finish the tense eye section the Ubermorph comes outta the vent. In dead space 1 its "The Hunter was a regenerative tissue experiment made into a slasher necromorph by a unitologist" and then dead space 2 its "Oh the ubermorph? What about it, its always been here. You're telling me you don't know about the ubermorph?"

One thing about Dead Space I always liked was how the weapons you used in the game were tools repurposed into weapons, like chainsaws. Plasma cutters are typically used for precision mining, but can also be used to sever limbs from bodies, makes sense. It also seems like a workplace incident someone once did. A kinesis? Yeah, its one of the main puzzle elements, same with Stasis. A ripper blade? Yeah, used to cut things. All of them are tools, which is also why Isaac is able to use them because, as a engineer, he has probably used them before. The only ones I don't see him using are the pulse rifle and flamethrower. But I do see a reason for pulse rifles, just for general security. All of these tools belong on a mining ship. Now this is where Dead Space 3 messes it all up. What purpose could a rocket launcher serve for a research colony?? What purpose could a shotgun to serve for a research colony??? It makes sense for someone like Carver to use, but not Isaac. You think Isaac has military training, using shotguns and rocket launchers? Maybe Carver taught him or something. But it definitely makes it feel more disconnected from the game it's from.

One thing I wished about the community surrounding Dead Space is that they examined the hallucinations closer than just being Isaac tweaking, and really examined Isaac's mind deeper. Its one thing I really like about the OG dead space 1 because you could never tell what wasn't and was a hallucination unless you just...knew, but there were more hallucinations then just "bloody guy standing". Another hallucination I definitely liked were the door and elevator hallucinations. The ones were you would seen a necromorph attempting to leap at you, before disappearing, or like exiting a save station or shop and just seeing a necromorph behind you, despite never hearing them. Its the little things like those that really make me appreciate dead space. Now as for dead space 2, it definitely has more of isaac's psyche and inner childhood traumas in it, specifically the fact his mom was a unitologist and he didn't have a dad. One of the most disturbing segments in the game is the Nursery segment, as you have to fight child and baby necromorphs. But the Baby scene is definitely one of the most horrifying. Seeing a necromorph baby crawling towards it's mother who is cooing at it, only for it to explode is definitely more than just shock value. I definitely think that it represents the religious psychosis involved with unitologists, and how if isaac was turned into a necromorph as a child, his mom wouldn't care. And the fact that his mom was a Unitologist definitely is a factor as to why he came to hate the markers so much, as they took so much away from him at every point in his life.

One of my favorite parts of dead space is the hallucinations and Isaac's state over the series. Like Isaac not only fights against the markers because it's basically become his only purpose by DS3, but another thing is how rooted the marker was already in his development. his very own mother was a unitologist for Christ's sake, so I'd imagine that'd be another reason for his hatred of the markers. Another detail I noticed in DS1, during chapter 10, which literally takes place in a unitologist area, you can literally hear "twinkle twinkle little star" in the background. like the marker is taunting Isaac with what his mother would've sung him if she wasn't a unitologist.

I hate how in cartoons or shows in general they make the parent's ancestors look like the parents, but then the kid's ancestors look like the kids instead of the parents, like are the kids actually adopted or smth???

ever since I replaced all my bandages with nicotine patches, life has become better for Mr has-no-skin right here! I do have to reapply them every couple of hours

so APPARENTLY thermite is not a good alternative for baking soda, something about some "exploding when it bakes in the oven blah blah blah"

Uh guys, I may or may not have just put the "red" stuff in the "blue" stuff box, and the "blue" stuff in the "red" stuff box

Imaging the guild members lowk just doing lines of spice

Man why can't we just start the butlerian jihad already? Like we're close enough ig

Dante: "little devil gonna cry? Hmm? little devil gonna cry?" Vergil, almost crying: "NO NO LITTLE DEVIL NOT GOING TO CRY SHUT UP"

I think that Nero was created bc Vergil didn't know anything about sex, and just tried it out one time before he decided to summon the temen-ni-gru

Dante sells all his devil arms and equipment after his missions, bc he doesn't need them, and only needs the rebellion and ebony and ivory. But this raises the question, how much are the devil arms worth, and who is buying them??? Does Dante just have garage sales after his missions?? Do people around the world come to red grave city to buy his devil arms and guns???

God I love bone marrow
