I started playing Alien Isolation a few weeks back, but with being busy I haven't been able to put a reasonable amount of time into it in one go. Maybe because of this it didn't really grip me to begin with, but it has now!

The atmosphere is immense! The visuals are fantastic (as all the reviews say) and I love the gameplay!

I know I'm a few years late to this, and I expect loads of people on here have already played it, but for anyone who hasn't you need to give it a go!

Not sure how far into it I am, I have just got to a planet to find the source of a signal.

Easily one of the best horror games available on Switch. Kind of a shame the file size is north of 16GB. Basically there's no chance of this ever getting a physical release. (Although, I would be willing to pony up $50 for a physical copy if Sega were ever inclined to make it available.)

@Magician you're right, it's fantastic!

I can't believe that video is under 5 hours long (no damage + highest difficulty) - I have been playing for longer than that and I don't think I'm near the end!

Doom Eternal gives me some gope for this and Hellblade. What do you think are the chances Limited Run or Super Rare Games etc would partner with SEGA to release it? At this point it's highly unlikely this gets a general retail release? I can't think of a game which years later had a standard physical...

@MarioBrickLayer Zero hope of Alien Isolation isolation getting a physical release on Switch. I don't believe Sega and LRG have ever collaborated on anything? But there is hope for Hellblade potentially getting a physical release. The Doom Eternal release was made possible because LRG are official Xbox partners.

But like Alien Isolation, Hellblade would require the use of a 32GB cartridge, so the chances of a physical release aren't great.

I finished Alien Isolation and it is excellent, probably the best horror game I have ever played. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't played it.
