Dead Space - heavy combat + Doom 3 interfaces + 80s. Seems interesting.

This looks like System Shock meets Amnesia, with Oculus Rift support.

So it looks all kinds of awesome!

This seems like a game where every noise you make is way too loud for your own comfort. Where's the Mute button on these computers?

This looks like an amazing game I will never touch. I will live vicariously through Patrick when the inevitable spookin' happens.

There is a lot of slick style and little details scattered throughout this trailer. Probably my favorite thing is how the video feed on the night-vision camera chugs with each frame, which gives the item (and world) authenticity, lending a different sense of realism to its world.

I was excited for a split second 'cause I saw this in the Endurance Run section... but it ain't no Endurance Run.

But-- this game looks intense, I want some!

Looks like Amnesia in Space, to put it in the most reductive terms possible...

I like it.

I will play this with the Rift, and it will probably be a bad scene.

Probably just a mistake, as it's also in the Trailers section. Not that I wouldn't want to see an Endurance Run of a horror game. Just add Vinny there with Patrick and boom! Also, goddamn water parts...I really hope I get to 'enjoy' of those in nearby months already.

...though I guess that would be kinda hard in the current situation, but you can't make any ERs without two peeps being there!

Creepy. This will definitely be a game I purchase and never play with the Rift, lol. That ending bit was probably the worst part of me. They really nailed the sounds to make you feel like an entity was rushing up to you. Rarely does a game achieve that.

On another note, I can't even imagine what gaming will be like if/when we utilize artificial feedback that tricks our minds into feeling pressure/touch. I feel like that will be the end of gaming itself, as it will scare everyone out of their minds. The resurgence of horror games will happen all over again, and scenes depicted in this game will literally cause heart attacks when you can "feel" something pulling you off of a ladder.

I was on edge just watching this trailer which is very rare for me. I can't imagine what I would be like actually playing this. This looks awesome and creepy.

Old space stations and old future tech are way more scary than deserted mansions or spooky houses or whatever. Something about how clean everything looks in a space station which makes anything weird seem even more disturbing.

Liking the look but I'm still really hankering for a new hard sci-fi game, horror just isn't my thing these days.

The visual style for this game is amazing. So many cool little details. Too bad I'm a coward when it comes to horror games.

Man! I love seeing this but hate it all the same, I've been cooking on such an idea for some time now and seeing it done so well gives such a great high. Other people have mentioned it before but that laggy night vision weapon display is fantastic, can already see where that will be terrifying!

Late 70's early 80's sci fi is by far my favorite sci fi. I got a serious Alien vibe from the computers in this game

Yeah, it was one of the first and most impressive games to show up in Greenlight. I think it was the first game I voted for, and it looks great.

The noise of the thing that gets him on the ladder *shiver*

Also FUCK playing this with an oculus rift, that would be dangerously scary.
