Me and Ripley looking dorky as fuck (okay, I admit, I'm the dorky one here)
In the game Amanda Ripley, Ellen’s daughter, goes off in search of finding out what really happened with her mother after the first movie. Amanda Ripley is every bit as bad ass as her mother.
I learned early on that you have to manually save often, or else you will die and you will die a lot and no where near your last save. I must have had to redo parts 3 times at times because I forgot to save. I soon learned that whenever I passed by a save point to save, even if the last save was 5 minutes prior.
Yo bro, you're an alien!
The androids in the game were bad enough, but the Xenomorph? That was a completely different kind of scary.
It's an android! It's so advanced...
You can fight the androids and you can kill the androids with some force, but when it came to Xenomorphs, there was no killing them, you could only distract them with noise makers and the like and scare them away with a flamethrower. Guns did nothing to hurt them.
Do I look good in my space suit?
I never got around to playing the DLC because it doesn’t go on Game Pass, but if it ever goes back on there (I believe it was since removed) I will probably pick up the DLC and play through it. I think you play as Ellen Ripley in it.
