SCORN first impressions

[McStabStab]

I bit the bullet and finally subscribed to gamepass for PC. What was the game that pushed me to commit? Not Forza 5 or MS Flight Simulator, but SCORN.

As a big Alien movie fan as well as an HR Giger enthusiast I was dying to try it out, but the $35 price tag seemed a bit steep for the 5-6 hour experience I had been reading about. So for a first month fee of $1 I figured let's dive in.

My first impressions were good, love the minimal UI, the Giger-esque environments and the body horror that I'm sure will continue to ramp up throughout the game. Once I knew to expect a puzzler my expectations were appropriate and I came out of the first part of the game feeling like I did after jumping into a Frictional Games title like SOMA or Amnesia.

I look forward to playing more and finishing it. Anyone else here tried it yet?

Watched some streams. Generally the game is good if you know what to expect. Someone who expected a horror shooter will be disappointed. But if you expect a puzzler, as @McStabStab noted, you'll be charmed. The atmosphere in SCORN isn't something that you see on daily basis in games. Probably one of the best in history.
