I love that Abby is playing this in her own way, playing on a stream with two other people joining in on the talk, I think it's hard to have a real slowpaced quiet playthrough in this context, as many of us had when we played it the first time.
Many times I have had the thought what would happend if on one of these streams on Giantbomb, they played a game "perfectly" Brad never dying in a videogame (sorry for bringin up that old joke)
Vinny playing a Open world game flawlessly, and so on, man I think it would be so boring to watch.
Abby plays the game her way, we may like or dislike it, but it's a way, yeah she may miss alot of the amazing sound designs from the creaking of the Ishimura's hull, or the Monsters sound design, the way they can surprise your during moments without sound.
I'm not saying I enjoy this playthrough, but I like to hear them talk, and so I just have it runing in the background and look from time to time, I'm sure there will come many more playthourghs with Abby I enjoy more, like Resident Evil 2 for instance.
Mark Brown perfectly sums up my feelings on Dead Space 1 in his video serie about Deadspace.
Thank you so much for doing these streams @alex this one especially was so great to listen to as a big movie lover myself, so it was great to hear all the great music, and the not so great :)
About that last song and it's use in movies, one movie I thought of was
Kingsman: The Secret Service, during the Church scene, where I also think the song was used effectively.
Playing it with three people you talk with the whole time, if I did that I could play easyli through Amnesia, Soma and other games without blinking an eye :)
