Would Isaac Clarke survive in the Aliens universe?

No, he dies the moment he stomps a xenomorph.

[Stormspark]

He'd be smart enough to not stomp them...that said, gunning down xenomorphs on a spacecraft is not a good idea, because their blood will eat through the hull.

[[OTS]EchoZenLogos]

Yes, he definitely could.

Of course it would depend on the circumstances, but if we assume he is allowed at least his engineering skills to apply to the Aliens universe and can handle combat as effectively as he manages from the start with zero training for it, then I think he would do okay. If instead of his skills applying to the Aliens Universe he was allowed to bring some of his weapons/tools I think he would do fine also.

Obviously an Alien would kill him if he got ambushed or such, but if he was allowed the same tools/situation that Ripley was I think he would do just fine.

The alien queen stuttered and Issac safely escaped.

[Nikanuur]

You kidding :D ? He's exactly what Allen Ripley is. An engineer chosen by the universe to survive where warriors-by-trade perish as dominos.

I'd say Isaac stands a fair chance. The biggest problems he'll face is the acid blood (he's dead if that gets on him) and the fact that xenomorphs are vastly more intelligent and cunning than necromorphs

His RIG can handle acid. Remember that Spitters spit blobs of acid and while they do damage Isaac they don't eat through the whole RIG and instakill him.

His RIG can also survive being in an active engine for a few seconds (those fires aren't instakills if you walk out of them fast enough).

People really underestimate the RIG armor, or overestimate Xenomorphs.

He'd be fine. Most Necromorphs are deadlier than Xenomorphs. They are however much more fragile. I think Xenomorphs would tank more shots than most Necromorphs, except the armored ones.

It depends, does Isaac keep his main character status? Both the Alien and Necromorphs are really bad at killing main characters but really good at killing everyone else.

I would argue that Necropmorphs are a far greater threat than Xenomorphs. Plus the tech of the DS universe is far more advanced in terms of personal protection and weapon tech. So if Isaac was in the Alien universe with his suit and weapons he would 100% survive considering he defeats full on legions of necromorphs and even a brethren moon. If its just him and nothing else, I would give him equal suitability along the lines of Ripley. He's just a natural survivor like her.

In case of Alien, I think Isaac will be done with the Xenomorph way earlier than Ripley. He would say "♥♥♥♥ the cat" and live without bossfight! ))

Dead space mining tools would be extremely effective against the Xenomorph, the problem would lie in the acid blood, but other than that they would not be that complicated to eliminate, they behave very, very similar to a necromorph.

I think he'd have a more difficult time, but I think he'd survive. In my opinion, xenomorphs are much more of a threat than necromorphs. As others have already pointed out, they are much more intelligent. A necromorph makes a racket smashing through a vent and screaming as it charges at it's target. Meanwhile, a xenomorph silently sneaks up on their target using stealth and ambush tactics. A xenomorph will attack you, kill you, and drag your body away while making barely any sounds (aside from the person screaming). And I think 9 times out of 10, a xenomorph would annihilate an entire CROWD of necromorphs without much issue (with the exception of Brutes).

[Dead Pixel]

Speaking of necromorphs vs xenomorphs.... Imagine a xenomorph corpse getting infected and turned into a necromorph. A necromorph-xenomorph. What an absolute NIGHTMARE that would be. God help us all.

[Mögbär]

One Xenomorph? Yes, he stands a chance with stasis and telekinesis at his disposal. A whole spaceship or -station full of them like the Dead Space games are full of Necromorphs? Nah ...
