A closer Look at the Mocking Birds - SOMA

The Lesser Constrct is Vigdis "Jonsy" Jonsdottir. The same voice actress.

SOMA is one of those games where you just sit and dont move for a while after you finish playing.

An absolutely worse fate than death. SOMA might not be scary in the traditional sense but the sense of dread is impeccable.

There is a theory that construct is a scan of Imojine Reed (or whatever her name was) put inside a robot. Keep in mind that she died at Upsilon and Simon has her body. WAU could have put the brainscan of her into the construct as a last resort but since her scan was corrupted she is batshit crazy. She is also agressive because she sees her former body being piloted by Simon.

I think the Construct is one of the better monster encounters. Not because it's hard or anything, but it's a great intro to both the game and an introductory monster encounter. The Construct is lumbering, imposing, and loud. The soundtrack is also one of the better ones, it's really great.

Those poor people... Being trapped in a robot would be scary for anyone! SOMA is amazing but also really, really depressing.

I assume half the robots you encounter in the game wanted to kill us (the player) for our structure gel. The hostile qualias bots actually mention this occasionally when they chase you. Alot of these bots dont want to fall apart further is my guess

Soma is one of those games that would either leave you as an emotional wreck, or question your own reality and even what "Have a Conciences" really means. Great game though.

To me SOMA is the greatest horror game. The ending was foreshadowed but still surprised me. I don't know why the game was never popular.

I still never understood why it wasn't optional to drag carl's body over to him.

imagine how different carl's reaction or dialogue would be if we had the option to bring amy or carl's ID tag, to see what he would say. i would assume that for amy he would say how she is his good friend and colleague, and how he cannot wait to get out of upsilon to meet her while for his own ID tag, im pretty sure he would ask where did simon get it from, and he wouldn't believe simon if he said its from his body thats few steps away

I spent weeks with SOMA, just investigating that game's plot and story. Neat that others are on the same adventure as well. A few tidbits I concluded. That game is like a, 3 shits hit the fan scenarios at once. Meteors nuke the surface. WAU goes haywire, and Akers go rogue. And you're only left with one 'pure' old woman to recreate the human race at the end. LOL GG Game was a trip and a half though stoned. A game that puts you on the ocean floor, as a robot. Unforgettable.

SOMA isn't scary in the sense that I often feel scared while playing it like I do when playing Amnesia, but this game really messed with me and even made me reconsider some of my views/thoughts about life, like the world has already ended at the point Simon wakes up at Upsilon, and yet life still goes on, but what really stuck with me was Simon talking about whether there was even a point in going on in the climber trip down into the abyss and Cathrine telling him, in summary, he is in charge of making his existence on the ARK feel meaningful to him, and that made me realize it's kinda the same in real life, our existence has no real significance, it's up to us to decide what our lives mean for us (and yes outside factors do influence this as well, I'm not saying abandon your bills/job because "life has no meaning", I'm just saying it's all arbitrary so there's no reason not to chase your personal goals and save up money to do the things you want to do).

Soma to me is even more horrific than the Amnesia series. It just feels hopeless

i love this, pleeeease do more in depth looks into models, maybe even the main character, Simon's, and the other suit he gets later in the story

It would be awesome to see Simon model

I wish I could put everyone to rest. No more ilussions. Only peace for them.

Wondrr what would happen if you drag the real Carl's corpse to his mockingbird variant.

Soma is one of the best horror games I have ever played. I liked it so much that I have the after credits zone where you see the city on the island as my lock screen on my computer.

It’s said the construct was originally a security personnel that’s conscious was replicated into the mocking bird and is mostly mad at you because it thinks you’re a trespasser
