This game honestly...
It gave me nightmares at some points cause it scared me that much. They took the silent hill approach, rather than constant scripted jumpscares you feel like the entire environment is hostile. Nothing is on your side and you feel like at any moment something can happen, even if the xenomorph isnt currently prowling around for you his thumping around in the vents still makes you nervous.

- Xenomorph is incredibly smart and learns your tactics, keeps you on your toes.
- Characters you can sympthesize with and a nice story.
- Facehuggers.... Scary little buggers that catch you out constantly
- Motion sensors beeping getting louder and louder keeps you on your toes.
- The environment never feels safe, even when your hiding you don't feel safe.
- Androids are an obstacle you need to conquer and can push you into a bad situation

- Human Ai is below par, probably because most of the memory went to the xenomorph.
- Too many sections with androids, they are meant as an obstacle not a constant bullet sponge to wreck your ammo count.
- On nightmare the xenomorph is excrutiatingly sensitive and it can become really frustrating at times.
- Some really pointless sections where you walk outside, press a button and then spacewalk back.
- If this game isnt played correctly it will punish you. The xenomorph will become desensitized to everything you do and will make your life really hard.

Overall I would throughly recommend this game for those who love the survival horror genre. The xenomorph is obviously your main enemy and it isnt even scary, the xenomorph is a creepy presence which feels like its clinging to you. The xenomorph learns your tactics as you go on so if you are incredibly aggressive the later section of the game will prove quite hard. Androids are another enemy and they mainly exist as an obstacle although an enemy in some cases. Do anything unauthorised and these androids will promptly walk up to you and smack you while saying your becoming hysterical. The humans are the final enemy and well... They barely pose a threat. Yeah they can shoot you and it bloody hurts but sometimes their AI is so stupid theres no point in doing anything, i've stood still and not been shot once and then to top it off he shot his friend by accident.

But yeah this game was tremendous and I loved every minute of it, the kill animations for the xenomorph all depend on external factors: What direction your facing, whats behind you, whats infront of you and more.
The game uses the environment as its tool of despair, as I have said you never quite feel safe and in those moments you do the game will throw some unscripted bs at you to make you scared again, whether thats the xenomorph pounding around in the vents above you or a piece of equipment just exploding/shorting or the lights turning off.

If you love survival horror games, then this game is perfect for you.
If I had to give it a rating out of 10 then I would probably say 8.5/10.
The game is incredible but not without its flaws.
