You get the movie, which I enjoyed, and the ability to turn subtitles on. There are no commentaries, no behind the scenes features, and no in-game content. The downside here – and the fact that would make me recommend renting this instead of buying it – is the fact that there's basically no value on the disc beyond the movie. I dig it as the setup gives the skewed stories a personal edge both in terms of content and context. Having that sterile, simple anchor works for branching out into these different works. When the movie first started, I though it looked rather cheap, but then each crewmember's memory is animated like a more traditional cartoon.
The objective part of the story (the crew on the interrogation ship) is told in a sterile, computer-animated style. This disjointed style has turned me off to similar productions – Batman: Gotham Knight – but it works here thanks to some contextual choices. For the most part, I liked all the characters, too, although the dude crying about his daughter is a bit one dimensional.Įach story is told in a different animation style.
It heightens the tension as you know terrible moments are just around the corner. You'll see how one person loses his mind from his perspective and then get to see the seemingly random attack from another. These stories are interesting, intertwined and gruesome. Each character is ushered into an interrogation room and exposed to their greatest fear. Instead, we start with the survivors being saved and are then treated to their personal accounts of what the heck happened down there. The movie doesn't play out in chronological order. Where Dead Space Aftermath excels is in its storytelling. Of course, as we've previously discussed, the Marker makes monsters and drives people insane, so things go to hell as soon as the first piece is found. Half the squad is there to stabilize the planet while the other half is there to collect Marker fragments. In Aftermath, the crew of the O'Bannon lands on Aegis VII.
