Gosh now I’m off on a big tangent about what wonderful sound design Irrational Games has always had and I wanted to share something from System Shock 2 with all of you.
For those of you who haven’t played System Shock 2 or are unfamiliar with it, your ship has been taken over by an alien parasite that calls itself The Many. Most of the enemies you fight are zombie-like humans that have been possessed by The Many.
The clip above is all the dialogue of the most common humanoid enemy. If you listen to most of it, it sounds like fairly generic video game-y stuff - threatening to make you a part of The Many, talking about silencing the discord, and so on. It’s certainly a little spooky, but nothing out of the ordinary.
And then you hear something different.
When I first played System Shock 2, it scared me so much I had trouble completing it. There is nothing like rounding a corner, making eye contact with an enemy, and then having it tell you, “Hurry… run,” before it starts to charge at you.
This dialogue is brilliant for so many reasons. It tells the player that somehow, the human part of these people is still aware and trying to cling to their minds, and that’s wonderfully disturbing and scary. There are lines of dialogue that would play as combat was happening, where they would scream, “I’m sorry” as they came at you with all their might. Having an enemy apologize to you as it tried to kill you was, for me, more terrifying than most things are today.
my favourite/least favourite holy fuck System Shock 2 enemy was the protocol droid suicide bombers
“where are you, sir”
“I can’t find you”
“how can I be of assisstan—”*BOOM*

their tumblr—and by extension, their service—posts really neat stuff pretty consistently, but it’s never cited or sourced
I want to know more about the artist who made the crazy 70s-toned 2001 animation
who are they, what’s their name, what other cool stuff have they done
ffffound has started this conversation and failed to provide the means to finish it
the content is artier than the humour aggregators or whatever, but it’s the same problem of lack of attribution

The Hyper-Aesthetic Car Crash Photos Of Arnold Odermatt
Working in the Swiss canton of Nidwalden for over 40 years as a police photographer, Arnold Odermatt created some of the most beautiful photos of car crashes.
Shot with a Rolleiflex, Odermatt’s photos are serene and meditative with no car parts and gore strewn about, serving as quiet mementos mori. Several books of his photos have been published, most famous amongst them the awesomely titled Karambolage.
