  • I have no issues with the controller either think it was a great addition, were I had a gripe is that it was the only way to operate the vessel, so not an addition but the sum total of controls.

    Like if you were bolted into a vehicle, with no way to interact with the outside except a tiny window and only a game controller, it is a lovely piece of efficient engineering and does everything you need, but if this controller maybe gets damaged for example it’s cable was unfortunately pinched off by someone’s shoe. When you realise at a 1000m the closest thing to a god is that controller working and taking you safely back to surface in time or being stuck and hoping the guy who got you into the mess, that his, only other plan the dissolvable ropes on the weights actually work and you get to surface and get found and unsealed before air runs out.








  • If there really is a good story that wasn’t told, which is possible in this time travel universe, then I am all for it. Like episode 5 of star wars, terminator 2 or even recent examples blade runner 2049, there was a story to expand on the previous, not imitate the original.

    Unfortunately sequels and remakes are now cash cows to milk existing IP’s for easy cash with minimal risk, since they tap into the goodwill of the existing fanbase. It leads to dilution of the original because they don’t take risk with the pre-, se-, or whatever -quel, and it leads to an inferior experience for the fan.
