Few questions - mods - skin options? - camera?
I just started the game, so sorry "for noob" questions. If stuff was asked before feel free to put a link :3

  • Is it possible to play the game naked or with custom skins? I know the first objective in this game is actually get some generic clothing, but i would prefer to skip this quest lol.

  • Is there an easy way for a free camera screenshot tool and is it even possible to take screenshots with the main avatar in action? Or is there no actual model, since this is a FPS and u can't even see your own head lol

  • Alternativelly are there at least some mirrors or lakes / surfaces with mirror effects to see how you actually look like? lol ...

  • How to change the games UI to actually show PS5 dualsense or at least PS4 symbols? Tooltips still say A, B , X , Y and it is confusing i would prefer square, round, quadre, X

  • Can you get more skins / clothing with some kind of new game+ or unlock mechanics? Like wardrobes etc?

  • How to put away torches in hand? Because those seem to be glued to the hands i already wasted 2 on accident cause i tried to figure out how to put them back into inventory ;_;

I'll post more in case i run into some troubles, thx for reading. Plz halp D:

happy gamin ^_^

You can switch from a torch (I assume you mean flare) to a medkit, then you can't accidentally use it. Once it's lit you have to either throw it away or wait for it to burn out.

For everything else I think the answer is pretty much... no. There is a free camera mod but it's just used by people who want to explore level design. Amanda has no complete character model, she has no body or head, it's just legs and arms, and there are no reflective surfaces to see her though you do see her in cut scenes quite a bit. No skins or unlockables.

Maybe they'll do a Raytracing Alien:sequel on next gen consoles. Alien reflections on chrome / metal would be terribly sweet xD

I'm sure there'll be another Alien game in the future but I doubt it'll be a sequel to this. It didn't sell all that well... mostly for three reasons that I can gather:

1. IGN and another publication (I forget which one) gave it a bad review because their reviewers are garbage and don't know how to play games.

2. Aliens: Colonial Marines released shortly before Isolation did and was so bad that many people gave up on Alien games for life (the previous game, AvP3, had also been quite mediocre).

3. Generally people seem to want action oriented pulse rifle alien massacres in their Alien games, not slow paced, tension based survival horror.

No. You don't see yourself during actual gameplay and those videos where your character is shown are pre-rendered videos. So there's no need to change your skin/clothes. If you really want to run around naked this is probably not the game for you.

This is clearly not the game for you.

I like sci-fi games though so why shouldn't the game be for me :o

Didn't some modder make some cool skin packs or new texture packs?

There's a pretty nice graphics mod.

There's also a fun mod that transforms the alien into a 9-foot tall Daffy Duck, but I wouldn't recommend it because * drum roll * it'th dethpicable.
