The remake is actually good. I made it to chapter six of me writing this comment. Have around 5 hours under the belt. It's really really good. I didn't think I would ever say this but EA did good. Like huh. I am as surprised as you are.
@@xxStrayxxDogxx You could argue 80€ is a bit much, which it is, but man I needed a good game again. Especially after the train wreck that was Callisto.
It always felt to me like the reason Kendra brings up the Marker first is that she realizes that it's going to be impossible to keep it secret. She also knows Isaac is deluding himself because she's seen Nicole's entire recording before the start of the game. She knows Isaac is going to hear the Marker, she knows it's likely to reach out to him, so she starts trying to play Isaac against Hammond to make him think Hammond is the bad guy so she can do her work uninterrupted. She probably even planned for him to die in Hydroponics.
I always found it suspicious that the link to Hammonds rig kept going out every now and then in the first game, after playing it again it was giving Dana vibes from dead space 2 where she was pretending to lose signal etc, I believe Kendra was jamming Hammonds signal in several occasions in order to try amd take him out
She also gived it away when Hammond was still alive and her face expression looked like anger in part of the game and she pretended to be shocked like oh great you still alive ? Expression.
11:47 That armor is the "level 6" armor. It's not a continuation of the engineer suit but a completely new one called the military suit. Not DLC. You probably have that suit on impossible mode due to a bug. If you beat the game on a different file, and start a new game on impossible without shutting the game off, there's a chance you start with whatever suit you ended with on your last playthrough, even though it isn't NG+. It's a pretty common bug and I know people use it to make impossible a bit easier. That's likely what happened with your 14 year old save file.
@@atch4764 my bad if I said this and someone else probably said it already it’s just man damn I didn’t expect to see the exact comment over 10 different times in 15 different variations 😂
As a connoisseur of the finer elements of interactive storytelling, I was quite intrigued upon discovering that the first letters of the mission names in 'Dead Space' spell out the ominous phrase 'Nicole is Dead.' This subtle, yet profound, Easter egg serves as a testament to the intricate layers of meaning that the developers have imbued within the game, and I must admit, it is a thrilling sensation to be among the select few who have uncovered this hidden gem within the narrative.
16:25 oh man this room. i remember my strategy was to keep running and move next to gravity tiles. repeat it long enough and most necros will eventually run into them and die. then it's just clean up
I'd love to see you tackle dead space 2 stray, I know it like the back of my hand with the amount of playthroughs I've done, a literal perfect sequel and phenomenal game
When I opened TH-cam I was planning on rewatching all of your older nostalgia drives, when I saw there was a new one I immediately clicked on it. I fucking love your videos man keep it up.
I have played through this game more times than I can count. It took me SO long to realize that the first letter of every chapter in the game spells out “NICOLE IS DEAD”! I honestly can’t believe nobody else here is talking about it.
Little known fact about the game but the final twist of the game is spelt out in the chapter names. If you take the first letter of each chapter you will reveal the twist.... I won't spoil it here but you can check it out yourself.
Despite never playing through this entire game, it's one of my favorites. It's the reason my family decided to get an HDTV and I'll always be proud of helping my late brother with the turret sections (he despised them and almost dropped the game entirely because of them). Thanks, man. This is some good stuff. You deserve the likes and the new subscriptions.
i remember everyone loving this game when it came out and it stayed a hit for a long time afterward, even with the following games releasing, the first was always a classic. However, i never played it. I 'm too much of a baby to play anything scarier than cod zombies and horror games have never really been up my alley anyway. One thing I would do for games like this is just research it and learn all these fun or not so fun facts about it, for example, the fact that the beginning letters to each of the chapters spells out "Nicole is dead" pretty cool. I love this channel, its cool to see your commitment to the concept throughout your play of all these games. Keep it up dude.
Thank you for the awesome video Stray~ Your data hoarding paid off real well this time Thank you for all your hard work, you crushed this in such a short time and I can't wait to see you play the remake~ I hope your having a lovely day, Have a wonderful rest of your week, Be safe and Take care out there wherever you are (^=W=^)7 I feel kinda dumb that I looked on your videos page like 15 minutes before this got uploaded and it took me like 3 hours to actually see it I AM PAIN Hope to see you again some time soon, Get lots of rest and let me know if I need to send for delivery for you because your hands are tied up with the remake LMAO REST you absolute gaming machine m(_ _)m
I 100% both 1 and 2 during the middle of last year in preparation for the remake. Enjoyed my time with both of them, even with how much I had to redo the intro of 2 because of hardcore mode. I'm really looking forward to doing the remake's achievement list too. Glad to see other people doing the achievements too. They're really a blast.
You've inspired me to go through my games and just try and complete them, but sometimes when I don't want to play through the entire 8 hour campaign, i just learn to speedrun it so I can skip most of it
@@theinfinitynerd4954 idk about that last part, how you gonna know something if you never even played the game. Widely known with the people who played the game idk about with people outside of it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Because of this game, I always look closely at what game chapters are named, for example, if you take the first letter of each chapter, it spells out "NICOLE IS DEAD" That blew my mind.
What’s really dumb about the old dead space is if you unlock impossible difficulty but play the game on any other difficulty the impossible mode disappears and you have to unlock it AGAIN unless you have a completed save file you can boot up. It doesn’t just stay permanently unlocked
The footage of this vid hurts me a little. I love this game a lot and play it too much, so seeing you take on necromorphs the way you were made me think "Why are you not doing it this way or that way." I always sold my large and medium med kits, and stasis packs for the better armor and nodes.
I don't know if you know this but if you take the first letter from each chapter it spells out NICOLE IS DEAD. Figured since no one else said it yet I'd fill you in.
I remember trying so hard to get the Don't Get Cock, Kid achievement as a kid. It was brutal. Like you, I was also an idiot and didn't know you could shoot with both triggers. I got it as a kid but I am forever scarred by the experience. Also I don't know if you noticed, but if you look at the first letter of all the chapter titles it spells out Nicole is dead. I'm honestly surprised to see that not one has mentioned this yet.
I decided a week ago that I wanted this achievement before the remake came out (the remake is incredible btw) and only yesterday did I have time to really sit down and finish the job. JFC I thought I might go insane on some of the horde fights but I managed.
Your video was recommended to me and I’ve never watched or heard of your channel before. But the fact that you have the Budokai 2 intro in the background. MMMM Ma man! Take my subscription!
It's been forever since I played Dead Space, but I distinctly remember having almost no ammo going into that chapter 6 boss. I died so many times. Also, did you know that if you look at the first letter of each level spells out Nicole Is Dead??? Such a cool easter egg that almost no one knows about.
A fact not known by many players of the original dead space but in the amazing sequel/prequel Dead Space Extraction if you take the first letter of every chapter and put them together you get WARREN LIES hinting at the fact that a very very trustworthy character is actually lying about something.
Almost a year after the original game came out I was doing my own challenge series for beating different games on their hardest difficulties. I posted about it on Twitter at the time and the official Dead Space account told me to do it with the Plasma Cutter only. That Impossible run was incredibly fun and completing it after being challenged by Visceral Games themselves made me love the game even more. I completed both those two achievements (Tier 3 Engineer and One Gun) at the same time and that got me the full 1000 Gamerscore. Great memories and am looking forward to picking up the remake soon. Congrats on finally finishing out your own achievements!
Bro, I can't believe you never realized that if you take the first letter of the name of every chapter and put them all together, they spell out "Nicole is dead"
I really don't know why everyone acts like that turret section is the hardest thing ever. I've never not finished with 50% or more hull integrity remaining.
I've looked everywhere and I can't find ANYONE talking about it. But if you take the first letter from the name of each chapter, it spells out Nicole is Dead. I love little hidden details like that
Woah this was a welcome surprise! Dead space is a super fun completion! Edit: besides that turret section my god that was annoying. Also personally I got around the ammo issue on impossible by only using and upgrading the plasma cutter because it is a very good starting gun.
I always play system shock 2 type games on hard or whatever their most difficult modes are for first time play thru's and i have really memorable experiences from playing that way. I would suggest it to anyone with a love for those kinds of games and some skill. Few things feel better than first timing a hard area without dying and it forces you to use all learn all of a games systems to their fullest.
@@ShadowBotboi Dead Space 2 was imo easier than the first game, with the exception of the Hardcore mode playthrough, which wasn't too hard, just very stressful and sometimes frustrating because of how much progress you could lose.
No one's mentioned it so far? Alright, kind of weird, but I suppose that means I get to do it. Fun fact: With the original dead space, if you take the first letter of the name of every chapter, it'll spell out "Nicole is dead". Since you never mentioned it, figured it might be good to let you know.
I can’t believe nobody’s talked about this, but the remake has added 8 chapters between Search and Rescue and Dead on Arrival, First Contact, Unexpected Consequences, Circular Thinking, Knowledge Is Power, Improvised Weapons, Negligent Supervision and Greater Purpose.
Excellent Video! Though I will say I’m a little disappointed you didn’t notice that the chapter titles spell out Nicole Is Dead, it really made me lose it when I realized
its honestly mind boggling that no one has mentioned the easter egg with the chapter names. Fun little thing you can look at if you just take the first word of every chapter. surprised you didn't know that Stray!
Fun fact; If you take the first letter of every chapter, it spells out “NICOLE IS DEAD”. Its quite a subtle but brilliant way to reveal the plot twist :^) Also, I’ve been trying to do the same thing that you’ve done with trying to beat the game before the remake released. Sadly, I didn’t manage to complete it on time. As of writing, I’m currently on Chapter 8. Still, once I complete the game Im hopping straight in to the Remake :^) Edit; Finished the game, now for the Remake :^) I’m surprised that you don’t like the Contact Beam. I can get why, its pretty situational. I only used it when I absolutely had to despite it always being in my arsenal. However, the Fully maxed damage contact beam is PERFECT for the Hive Mind and its tentacles. It takes literally only shot to destroy its yellow weak points, making it very useful to speed through the final boss fight. The alt fire, to me, is useless though. Still, I beat the game on hard with only two deaths (I personally say only one death cuz i don’t count the turret sections :^)
@@RandoLePerson can't beat that angry ass red glow while you hold down the trigger. The thing looks like it has teeth. I like the idea of the force gun, but my 8 year old self always thought it was potato looking. That, and I didn't learn until recently you still have to aim at limbs for max damage. When it said "cone of damage" i figured you wanted to aim center mass to hit all the limbs around the laser, so I was doing horrible damage with it as well.
Fun Fact not a lot of people know, the first letters of every chapter spell out D E E Z N U T S Anyways great video! Never played Dead Space before but despite being kinda spoiled by this video it also made me want to play it anyway.
You can hoard money by upgrading the pulse canon, sell the ammo, and rinse and repeat. 9 power nodes is best and after upgrading the capacity (one at the time)you empty the magazine, pick up the ammo on the floor, and upgrade the capacity until you are out of nodes. Sell the ammo then reset the nodes.
Lmao at the turret section bit. One of my best friends made it all the way to 4 Kings in Dark Souls without realizing they had light and heavy attacks.
The only 2 trophies I never got in this game was besting it on impossible and the stupid turret section. This is making me want to go back and finally get those done
Get heavy damage pack DLC, tank suit, use infinite stasis and infinite oxygen refill cheat codes, use cheat codes to get extra cash and power nodes. Then when you get to the first store, use contact beam and plasma cutter and tank suit only.
For the Epic Tier 3 Engineer achievement you only needed to complete it on hardcore. Not impossible, that mode was added post launch for die hard players who wanted an extra challenge
Like a year ago I replayed the original dead space because of the remake announcement and the turret section almost made me drop the game itself lol it’s so goddamn hard!
There's a lot of amazing things they did with the remake, but quite possibly my favorite is how they reworked circuit nodes. Instead of dumping 7-8 on literally empty slots just to get that one damage or capacity upgrade, there is absolutely no necessity to "waste" a node like this with the new system. To compensate for this, they had to give the weapons and the suit far more upgrade slots. Each weapon has 3 upgrades you can scavenge schematics for, which just unlock more of the circuit tree to dump nodes into, as well as unlock additional special features. This means you are guaranteed to at least get a couple of weapons and your suit maximally upgraded by the end of the game. Also, many of the weapons were re-worked. The Contact Beam is unironically one of the best weapons in the entire game. The primary fire is now a constant beam, while the alt-fire works more like the primary fire in the original: a VERY high damage beam that needs to be precisely aimed. The alt-fire can take out Brutes extremely quickly, in fact it can nuke just about anything very quickly. Very good gun. The Contact Beam in the remake is easily a contender for a fully upgraded plasma cutter.
Back in the day, I did what I called the Hero Run. Impossible mode, Plasma Cutter only, and only using the Level 3 suit. No cheats. It was great, and if I could be bothered to pull out my old 360 I'd have to do it again.
Btw that "DLC" suit you used in impossible difficulty isn't actually DLC. It's the level 6 suit you get for beating the game and can use in new game plus
No it's DLC. You cannot access the level 6 suit on the impossible difficulty. It's a fresh start without any unlocks. So he bought the military pack from the store.
I didn't know there were cheat codes but I remember stumbling onto a glitch that let you repeatedly pick up tons of Peng to sell. It made the game infinitely easier.
The remake is actually good. I made it to chapter six of me writing this comment. Have around 5 hours under the belt. It's really really good. I didn't think I would ever say this but EA did good. Like huh. I am as surprised as you are.

Glad I found this channel. Great video!
its honestly mind boggling that no one has mentioned the easter egg with the chapter names. Fun little thing you can look at if you just take the first word of every chapter. surprised you didn't know that Stray!
Fun fact; If you take the first letter of every chapter, it spells out “NICOLE IS DEAD”. Its quite a subtle but brilliant way to reveal the plot twist :^)
Also, I’ve been trying to do the same thing that you’ve done with trying to beat the game before the remake released. Sadly, I didn’t manage to complete it on time. As of writing, I’m currently on Chapter 8. Still, once I complete the game Im hopping straight in to the Remake :^)
Edit; Finished the game, now for the Remake :^)
I’m surprised that you don’t like the Contact Beam. I can get why, its pretty situational. I only used it when I absolutely had to despite it always being in my arsenal. However, the Fully maxed damage contact beam is PERFECT for the Hive Mind and its tentacles. It takes literally only shot to destroy its yellow weak points, making it very useful to speed through the final boss fight. The alt fire, to me, is useless though.
Still, I beat the game on hard with only two deaths (I personally say only one death cuz i don’t count the turret sections :^)
Wake up, new NOSTALGIA DRIVE!
My boy! Just in time!
I was sweating bullets. Didn't think I'd make it
Proud of ya nevertheless mate good work!
Congrats I recently just went through ALL of the Dead Space games and did a video on it too love the video keep it up :)
You should definitely do this series for Fallout New Vegas
"So I switched back, picked normal...." Oh... oh no
The Contact Beam is the coolest gun in Dead Space period.
@@RandoLePerson can't beat that angry ass red glow while you hold down the trigger. The thing looks like it has teeth. I like the idea of the force gun, but my 8 year old self always thought it was potato looking. That, and I didn't learn until recently you still have to aim at limbs for max damage. When it said "cone of damage" i figured you wanted to aim center mass to hit all the limbs around the laser, so I was doing horrible damage with it as well.
Fun Fact not a lot of people know, the first letters of every chapter spell out D E E Z N U T S
Anyways great video! Never played Dead Space before but despite being kinda spoiled by this video it also made me want to play it anyway.
I fucking love this series! All the good memories fly by!!!!
Just beat the remake on impossible and cleared a milestone I couldn’t in 2008. Congrats on doing the same man!
New sub here too, great video!
Impossible on the original is harder than in the remake. Remake's impossible is just hard mode with perma death. It isn't difficult at all.
Ay you got it out! How was the all nighter?
I haven't slept since the last time we spoke lmao
@@xxStrayxxDogxx oh my lord 😂
You can hoard money by upgrading the pulse canon, sell the ammo, and rinse and repeat. 9 power nodes is best and after upgrading the capacity (one at the time)you empty the magazine, pick up the ammo on the floor, and upgrade the capacity until you are out of nodes. Sell the ammo then reset the nodes.
Hey stray, great video! Fun fact, if you take the first letter of every chapter in the game, it spells out "NICOLE IS DEAD"
Lmao at the turret section bit. One of my best friends made it all the way to 4 Kings in Dark Souls without realizing they had light and heavy attacks.
Did y’all know that, if you take the first letter of each level, they spell out NICOLE IS DEAD? It’s a really fun little Easter egg!
Finally a new video…… giving up my birthday to watch this video was worth it
Oh you sweet child. The remake is perfect, and should set an example on how to remake a game. Perfection
Facts! I love the remake more than the original, especially with that damn turret section gone 😁
I really dig the format of these videos including the deep dives. Totally worth a like and sub 👌
I love this series thank you so much really is nostalgic
The only 2 trophies I never got in this game was besting it on impossible and the stupid turret section. This is making me want to go back and finally get those done
Get heavy damage pack DLC, tank suit, use infinite stasis and infinite oxygen refill cheat codes, use cheat codes to get extra cash and power nodes.
Then when you get to the first store, use contact beam and plasma cutter and tank suit only.
For the Epic Tier 3 Engineer achievement you only needed to complete it on hardcore. Not impossible, that mode was added post launch for die hard players who wanted an extra challenge
you're thinking of Dead Space 2
@@ThunderShot66 No, he's thinking of Dead Space 3. 2 didn't have an Impossible difficulty.
@@HenryMyth
What are you all thinking about?
Because in Dead Space 3 to get the Epic Tier 3 (4) engineer achievement you need to beat Classic Mode
2 days later and I still can't believe no one has pointed out that the first letter of every chapter spells out NICOLE IS DEAD
Honestly I'm looking at this video, seeing what Dead Space '08 looks like, and I can't see of a good enough reason to warrant a remake.
Brilliant video!! What a great idea, and what luck in finding the old HD! Cheers fella!
HOW DID YOU NOT MENTION THE FACT THAT IF YOU TAKE THE FIRST LETTER OF EVERY MISSION IN THE GAME, IT SAYS THAT NICOLE IS DEAD!?!
did you know that the first letter of each chapter spells out NICOLE IS DEAD? interesting easter egg
Like a year ago I replayed the original dead space because of the remake announcement and the turret section almost made me drop the game itself lol it’s so goddamn hard!
Yeah that achivement pissed me the f off. Took me probably 20 tries
There's a lot of amazing things they did with the remake, but quite possibly my favorite is how they reworked circuit nodes. Instead of dumping 7-8 on literally empty slots just to get that one damage or capacity upgrade, there is absolutely no necessity to "waste" a node like this with the new system. To compensate for this, they had to give the weapons and the suit far more upgrade slots. Each weapon has 3 upgrades you can scavenge schematics for, which just unlock more of the circuit tree to dump nodes into, as well as unlock additional special features. This means you are guaranteed to at least get a couple of weapons and your suit maximally upgraded by the end of the game.
Also, many of the weapons were re-worked. The Contact Beam is unironically one of the best weapons in the entire game. The primary fire is now a constant beam, while the alt-fire works more like the primary fire in the original: a VERY high damage beam that needs to be precisely aimed. The alt-fire can take out Brutes extremely quickly, in fact it can nuke just about anything very quickly. Very good gun. The Contact Beam in the remake is easily a contender for a fully upgraded plasma cutter.
Nicole ded comment
Back in the day, I did what I called the Hero Run. Impossible mode, Plasma Cutter only, and only using the Level 3 suit. No cheats. It was great, and if I could be bothered to pull out my old 360 I'd have to do it again.
man the craziest part of that game is how every beginning letter of every chapter spells out NICOLE IS DEAD. my mind was blown lol
A really neat thing the dev's did. Was spell out Nicole is Dead with the first letter of each chapter name. It's quite novel but really cool.
Btw that "DLC" suit you used in impossible difficulty isn't actually DLC. It's the level 6 suit you get for beating the game and can use in new game plus
No it's DLC. You cannot access the level 6 suit on the impossible difficulty. It's a fresh start without any unlocks. So he bought the military pack from the store.
I didn't know there were cheat codes but I remember stumbling onto a glitch that let you repeatedly pick up tons of Peng to sell. It made the game infinitely easier.
It's funny how it being blured makes it seem more graphic
contact beam is underrated, literally one to 2 shots to kill the biggest bosses in the game, that's why it was nerfed a little in the remake
If you take the first letter of each chapter it spells Ligma
I didn’t realize until my last playthrough before The Callisto Protocol that you could use both cannons on the ADS mission. It’s never explained!!
