I found the document outlining the AI level of both robots and both are ADVANCED AI. I played the game up to the robot stun choice like drinking fine wine, and it was. Then players, including teenagers would know what they are getting into and parents that actually parent could better choose and discuss the games their children play. Soma defies those expectations at the same time it embraces and overuses them.Īnd along the same lines if it was my choice the ESRB would be completely scrapped as the useless tool it is and the rating system would simply stateĪ) Forced choices where the player must kill to proceedī) Forced choices where the player is forced to steal to proceedĬ) Forced choices where the player is forced to abuse harm or torture sentient beings to proceed But there is little return on their investment there as gamers have been trained what to expect. It is very saddening to me, because what an experience Soma could have been if Frictional would have used the assets and plot to make a compelling thoughtful game, roughly doubling the effort they put into it. But that market is pretty picky so I cant really blame them for not catering to it.

If developers showed more respect to players they might find a new paying market of customers are just waiting to be tapped. That is the way it is just like I am forced to play the game as it is or leave it. I don't expect my money back, but because they didn't meet my expectation, I will no longer support them. I do expect a game that satisfies me and allows me to complete it. I am their bitch.Īnd yes, I paid for the game and that pays their salaries and gives them profits. If allowing me to find the chip doesn't change anything, then Frictional is just making me do stuff I don't like because they want me to. Would that change the flow of the game and outcome.

if Frictional added a patch to put the chip somewhere I could find and no robot had to die. In the frame of the game, Frictional is asking me to do what I wouldn't, in this particular case to get a throwaway part that could easily hidden for me to find instead. Needless to say I didn't finish that one, but did watch the endings on Youtube and had a decent experience and didn't miss much. great game up to the baseball scene and then the abuse started. Bio shock Infinite was a classic example of this. Give a compelling experience at the beginning to garner player investment and then slowly start the abuse which the player tolerates because of the investment. to bad the vast majority of experiences in gaming are abusive using the same model.
