Dead Space is back and fully remade, and Max is here to check it out! It's been over eight years since he played the original, and while he didn't find the 2008 version that scary...things are different this time.

I remember when Visceral was questioned about why the "cut off the limbs" instructions were so obnoxious at the beginning of the game. They said that almost no matter how many times the instruction was given to playtesters, it was ignored, and they kept shooting the necromorphs in the head and when they didn't die, playtesters got frustrated. That was the moment when I finally truly understood that many human beings don't actually have a functioning brain.
That is absolutely hilarious
I see Arin was part of that playtester group
Although Its been many years, I still remember my teacher saying there are more dumb people on earth than smart. It's incredible how basic mechanics in games can completely be ignored by most players, then again maybe some of us just play too many games haha.
When 9 year old me is smarter than play testers 🤦♂️
DSP must’ve been a playtester
This entire game is "HES IN THE WALLS....HES IN THE GOD DAMN WALLS!!!!"
Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also "hes right behind me isnt it?"
After finishing and playing it to 100 percent to get my hand cannon this is RE1 remake level, I’m happy he is playing and enjoying it.
What are the best tactics for the impossible difficulty, thats my only trophy remaining and i dont want to tilt xD
Don't die.
Can someone check out my part 1 of this
@@ShadowFernan1 save scum maybe 🤔

The remake in my opinion, is truly scarier than the original. When a room becomes pitch black you really can't tell where the enemies are until their right next to you. Heck now that the entire ship is explorable, any random noise and sound keeps you on your toes from beginning to end. This is truly a worthy remake and I'm glad to be alive at this point to experience this!
It's kind of cheap though and wears off. Turning off the lights and cranking annoying music stings stopped being scary for me after chapter 5
@John Dodo The music is a little too obnoxious but I absolutely adore how they made it where you can choose oxygen or lights to switch power in areas. Because you know almost everyone will turn off lights and the lighting in this game is just fantastic and still made me go, "Ah fuck off" up until the end.
The fact they added a randomizer effect where if you enter an area you've already visited theres a chance you can get jumped by new necromorphs made it perfect for suspense
@@aytony4090 the music being obnoxious and overwhelming has always been a part of the game. Even in the original
@@Sm0k3turt Wish they would tone it down would make the game creepier.
If you keep stomping on the monsters like 20 times. Isaac Clarke will cuss at the dead monsters in different strong words so give it a try.
I think He yells at them more and more the further you're in the game. I heard that tho but if it's true it's a really good attention to detail.
@@Ssecave I got a "Mother fucker!" and "Die you son of a bitch!" and "FUCK YOU!" in a row the other night and I'm on Chapter 11 of 12.
@@Ssecave he also curses the cec of you run out of ammo
Lol I gotta try it
Oh cool just like in Dead Space 2!
I feel like this is exactly how a remake of a horror game should be done. The mechanics and gameplay are exactly how you remember, but the narrative and especially the big scare set pieces are changed enough to keep you on your toes.
Literally never feel safe
The spawns are also very delayed at times
So instead of Doom 3 where you enter a room and get a constant fight where enemies predictably teleport behind you
You get time to cool down and and get back into the horror mindset of "they could get me at any moment if i get distracted by even a second"
@@rompevuevitos222well doom 3 isn't a horror game and hes doom guy why would he be scared of anything?
@@Dr.HooWhoThe game was built as a horror game. Doom 3 does not follow the philosophy of the other games and it even caused fans to hate it for not feeling like Doom (and in fact, the intro of Doom 2016 is meant to mock the third game for that reason)
It's a horror game in the same sense FEAR is (even tho neither do a good job scaring the player)
Max: "I like how theyre letting areas be dark, you can't tell what this is without shining your light on it "
Entire room is nearly pitch black.
Max: "Oh god...."
The game took that personally 🤭
Max likes things he fears
39:57 that is what I love about this game, if a Necromorph is behind you, everything is silent until you realise is there, always keeping you alert.
Or at 1:50:20 they just burst out a fucking wall while you looking at a man cough and twitch Max's face was priceless lol
I was in high school when this game came out and it was already scary at the time, but now it looks like a true waking nightmare. This was the game where some kids would say it’s not that scary but honestly I think they were full of it.
I was in the 5th grade when i first played this. Now im in college. Time is crazy 🥲
Honestly, it has some good jump scares and tense moments, but they show the necromorphs so early on that there's almost no ramping up to it. I almost wish there weren't windows to the first room where the necromorphs drop in so that all you can hear is your crewmates dying and you're just sortof sitting there wondering wtf is going on and then you hear them telling you to run and banging in the ducts and your running from fear would be a lot more genuine than spawning an enemy to chase you. Nevermind that they give you weapons and plenty of ammo despite it being 'survival horror' which soon negates most of the threat and fear that the necromorphs pose.
There's different types of fear and horror and Dead Space does a few really well, but then fails on others and some types of fear work really well on some people and not so much on others. Don't get me wrong, I played and enjoyed Dead Space and Dead Space 2. Of the two, I think the second game was scarier. But there's other horror games out there that I've never actually finished, because they do horror so well that I can't bring myself to finish them.
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
I blame my mother she is a horror freak I can count on one hand how many horror are actually scary, I think perhaps I'm two use to the musical ques but it obvious when the games about to try and scare you. Am not saying it's not scary but sometimes I feel immune to the effects a horror game should have if that makes sense.
@The_Rogue_Fox Your mother sounds freaking awesome. Go moms!
39:57 this part had me in stitches, the necromorph politely walked up tapped him on the shoulder and went "HOOAUUGRGHHHH"
Max is getting terrorised I love it 🤣🤣
"HOW MANY TIMES DO WE NEED TO DO THIS FRANK?!"
This remake can now officially be considered along REmake as one of the best remakes of all time. They’ve done something special here.
First GOTY of the year, no question.
RE1, RE2 and Dead Space now and soon RE4 (I think RE3 remake was missing a lot of OG content).
If you're a fan of that genre of games, you're a lucky one ! :D. The only one that would be nice to have a remake too is Alien Isolation but I don't think the game is old enough visually and gameplay wise to need one.
Fingers crossed for Dead Space 2. If it comes I not looking forward for some ennemies and 2 levels that I hate to much :'D.
@@Ssecave Isolation is still such a masterpiece and it holds up perfectly. I think it’s too soon and other games are in much more dire need for a remake. SH2 (which is coming), Clock Tower, Dino Crisis come to mind.
RE3R was mediocre compared to RE2R no doubt, it was okay but it didn’t do much right.
RE4 remake and Silksong is releasing this year too.
oh yeah, ppl are hyping up Atomic Heart as well
@@balmain2496 agree, that game still look insane (tho the textures are a bit low but that's not a big problem).
It need a native VR mode tho !
@@balmain2496Agree with you on both, Alien Isolation was years ahead of it's time, and it still holds up great. Also, nice to see someone who doesn't totally despise RE3R. Yes, it wasn't worth the full $60 dollars and it's missing a lot of stuff, but for what is there, it's still pretty fun. It's just that RE1HD, RE2R, and RE4R are all masterpieces so the "just pretty good" RE3R looks worse in comparison, which it admittedly is. The game is still fun to play for what it does have though, if it didn't cut so much than IMO it would be on par with RE2R.
I can’t go into it without spoilers, but what really elevates this to a RE2 level remake are some of the changes to the third act.
The way some reveals and characters are handled was just a HUGE improvement on the og in my opinion.
Max, This Remake is amazing, It is like the original but very different. Spawns are somewhat the same and very different locations. It's insane how similar the 2 are. This game is scary as shit just like the og, Definitely one of the best Survival Horror games there is. The feel of the game feels very different. I love the lore and backstory of how the events of DS1 outbreak came to be. The Ishimura is a fantastic setting with tight corners and enclosed spaces. We need DS2 Remake or DS4
I imagine we’ll be a getting a remake of 2 and 3, 2 will remain faithful to the original but I imagine they’ll touch up on the story of 3 to make it more scary and intriguing.
You need nothing! You just got a dead space 1 remake. Just wait with your spoiled behind.
Dead space remake has an intensity director which allow necromorphs to spawn randomly in different location to keep the player on their toe the entire game instead of predictable spawn location
Correct me if I’m wrong here man but didn’t they change the layout of the ishimura a bit? From what I’ve seen some areas look slightly different and it looks like they made it easier to backtrack to certain areas and stuff like that
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
I remember how terrified I was watching this and the last streams at 2am in pitch black darkness...why do I do this to myself lmao. I'm glad Motive didn't mess this remake up and instead improved upon it alot in my opinion
Motive captured the original Dead Space horror better than “Glenn Schofields” Callisto Protocol.
Didn't know Max was into diablo that tristram music in the begging suprised me such good memories thank you for the content max and doodes
It's only today and in this video that I realize how dynamic the Necromorph encounters can be, I didn't even know they could appear around the smashing door like then... And behind the glass after the first babymorph encounter
Max with the “camera-gate” was hilarious.
I wonder how frantic chat was trying to let Max know he could rip the weapons off the Nechramorphs
1:47 you don’t see Isaac’s face until the end in the original, and he was *almost* completely mute aside from breathing, grunting, and screaming noises.
This is very much a faithful remake that takes advantage of knowing more of the lore from later titles to remove some inconsistencies and improve on the gameplay.
Isaac having a voice is better in my opinion as it helps make him a more well defined character with greater agency compared to the original game.
You do see his face in the OG if you look around before he puts on the his Helmet
It ain't dead space if you ain't scared
It may not be the first, but the "starting weapon only" achievement from the original DS1 really stuck with me for a long time to such an extent that I just I wanted to try out if it's possible to do in other games.
Tbf they did it for a reason, the plasma cutter is amazing and the whole of idea of the game revolves around it
@@neloverg3774I mean really there's not much reason to use any other weapon besides maybe using the Flamer to deal with the swarm enemies
Okay I heard in one of maxes vods that he played dead space before but didn't say much else. Being a huge fan of this game since it came out.
IM READY FOR THIS!
i find that there's 2 kind of players, players who are too frightened to realise how well they can fight back, and those who realise it straight away and turn hallways into shooting gallery's
Different story when your on NG+ 🫡
I just finished the game. The atmosphere of just constantly having screams and eerie sounds made it feel like there was always an enemy behind me. I’ve also had a lot of moments just having enemies randomly spawn not even a few seconds after I just walked out of the hallways. Really kept me on edge the whole time.
You are the only one so far I have seen that remembered to use the Alt fire on the weapons! Thank you!
Beauty about this game is that you are NEVER SAFE.
Let's say even if you cleared certain area and you think you are safe, enemies will or will not respawn, giving you the sense that you are NEVER SAFE in Ishimura.
If one drops of from of you obviously the second I kill it I 180 because I know they ain't making it easy in me. There's always one spawned behind lol.
This Remake is amazing Max! Excited to see you play through through this
I've beaten Dead Space Remake twice now. Once on hard, once on impossible with just the plasma cutter. This game is 10/10 amazing.
I played OG day of because I was so anticipating the Thing, Alien and Event Horizon rolled into one game. It was a dream come true. I'm really enjoying the update. Wishing for more dark, adult themes in space across cinema and gaming.
I love the sound the Necro's make when they swing at you, makes it feel like those swipes are actually lethal.
I'm on my third playthrough rn and it's my impossible run. Currently at the end of chapter 3. This game is fucking incredible and I'm so happy one of my favorite franchises is back and better than ever
Love these long playthroughs
Watching Max play is a testament to patience, you have to have it in order to weather his general non understanding of standard game design, like setting optional objectives or monitoring his surroundings. He misses so many items, rooms, quests that its a true marvel as to how he survives in video games at all.
Max, you should probably stick to fighting games cuz you have true 2D thinking and can't survive a 3D environment.
I was wondering why he barely moves the aim 😂
I agree with what you're saying but I do admire that he is at least trying to get to the whole day
Yup it definitely still is tense af...
Didn't think it would feel so same yet different at the same time
Finally found the time to play this masterpiece over Christmas break. Nothing better than watching max play…when I’m not playing.
I was 8 years old when the original came out (didn’t play it until around 10 years old). This was absolutely my Resident Evil 1/Resident Evil 2 that many of you had as kids.
Great playthrough, I hope you continue this.
The sound design and the lighting make this game great. I can't watch it all at once because my motion sickness is so bad that even some 3rd POV games, like this one, make me queasy after a while, but it's worth it.
Turn off the motion blur and film grain. Lower the sensitivity to half and you should be in much better shape. Also, turn the sharpness down slightly on your TV. It helps me allot
@@johndodo2062 Thanks, I do most of that except the sharpness and sensitivity. I'll definitely be doing that now.
constantly, I hear sounds that max cant at all, and I find myself sitting her going, its on your right on your right on your right, or its behind you, and its only once its on screen that max even realizes its there, hurts the soul
The opening skit was effing great 😂
47:40 this moment "Hit Differently" in discovery.
I just finished the og dead space this evening. The new look is insane and the game keeping the gameplay from the og like enemy theme didn't play until you see them if you missed one the music is stop anyway until you got hit and I love it. I still have fun even play the og in 2023. Nice to see you playing this game
That Diablo music at the start of the video was very soothing
This soundtrack is one of the greatest soundtracks for a horror game I’ve ever heard. Even just walking around the ship and hearing whispers and necromorphs scratching in the walls, had me on edge the whole time.
I always found it strange that Isaac never said anything in the first game. I love that they fixed that and gave Isaac some depth
Yea he talks when necessary now and it makes more sense.
Because it was supposed to make YOU the protagonist
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808wow we are both here months later
It’s hard to enjoy the quiet moments of the game when all you can hear it “WELCOME BACK TO THE STAGE HISTORY”
So excited to watch this play through!!
Me going into this game: "I've played the original a bunch, it's not that scary at all. I'll be fine, I'm desensitized to it now."
10 minutes into the game: "Oh no..."
Which to be fair, is precisely how I wanted this remake to make me feel lol. Easy 9/10 game for me. The only thing holding it back from being a 10/10 for me is that I got it on steam and the PC port has had it's fair share of issues, including some soft-locks and other bugs. Seems like that's par for the course with all pc ports these days though.
You have two opportunities to see Isaac in the first game. At the beginning right as you take control of him, you can pan the camera around him before he puts his helmet on, and once more at the end of the game.
Exactly thank u for pointing this out im not sure what revisionist history everyone has going on but isaac was visible
Max trying to do simple puzzles is always a fun time.. max rhibking the circuit breakers are actual puzzles instead of just sending or removing power like actual circuit breakers is wild lmao
Can't wait ti see him play Chapter 5
Gameplay begins at 7:59
You should get the deluxe edition, try the lone survivor suit, actually all of the suits are so detailed it insane. I just played through hydroponics today, and dear god this is literally for me the best horror survival game ever made.
Venture and sanctified are great. I don't like the rest. Lone survivor would be 1000 times better without the stupid hand antlers
@@johndodo2062
I'm pretty sure removing those will take away from the fact that the suit is meant to represent how insane Isaac can become.
I need to have a chat with whoever did the thumbnail. How’d they get such a clean picture of that scene
Damn this remake looks & plays good! Enjoyed the 1st part very much. 21:15 "He was looking for the bathroom" OMFG I was dying from laughter!!! Only Max can deliver Commentary on this level. xD
Thank you for your inputs.. really insightful. I'm looking forward to seeing your thoughts on the full game.
7:13
Gameplay Starts.
50:00 that was so good lol
Glad he loves the game as much as I did when the original first came out.
Max having to keep reminding chat that his lighting and camera is just that good will always be funny 😂.
Plays storyline game play. Starts talking to chat about lighting over the first cutseens
Max playing without a headset probability makes it scarier. With a headset you can hear where they are coming from
Max: Uses Digital Waypoint
Also Max: Goes Opposite Direction
😆 🤣 😂
Holy crap I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for backs to play this game why did it take so long he never did a playthrough of the original(stream and i missed it) he did say he played i but he never did a playthrough really glad you do the remnax finally
I hope this will encourage him to go back to play part 2
Man... That tristram theme in the background takes me back to the old golden days...
Max: I need ammo!
*proceeds to waste remaining ammo on boxes*
Tips for impossible mode. If you played other Dead Space games. This is not as tough to do. The beginning will be semi rough due to limited resources. Your best bet is to focus on Plasma Cutter only. Focus on going for stasis and armor upgrades, plasma cutter. Save often. The game has a left for dead feature. If doing to well. The game will throw curveballs at you. I had rooms that had insane amount of enemies. When I loaded it up. They were much more manageable. Sell loot. Anything you dont plan to use. Most important step. Dont try to beat in 1 sitting. Take breaks often.
This is the ultimate legendary version of Dead space how it should be played form now on.
I beat the original twice back in like late 2010 or early 2011, and have been playing the remake for the past few days. I actually went to bed right after playing the remake and had nightmares. It's such a good game. I'm not the type of person who screams when I'm scared but I definitely feel the fear while I'm playing it. One of the things that I love about it is that the design of Isaac is right up my alley. In most survival horror games, the protagonist looks kind of plain, but Isaac's engineering suit is so cool looking.
Dev: How many enemies and jumps cares ?
Boss: Yes
Max out here giving out some seth killian vibes the beefier he gets.
Bruh this remastered/remake is crazy!!! I never seen this much polish from an old game. Granted, I never played the original so all new to me but I never would’ve guess it was remastered.
The charm in this game 10/10 and the feeling of aliens is so cool also GOT DAMN is the game creepy lol
I like that you mostly get pulse rifle ammo, it's shows that the crew mostly used that weapon and that's why they all ended up dying. They just kept shooting at the monsters, instead of cutting them up.
The ammo you get is actually base off the weapons in your inventory. If you put the rifle in storage you stop getting ammo for it
I like this head cannon
thats literally the lore, default unmodified military rifles dont work, cutters are best suited for the job hence isaac equipped with plasma cutter, lin e gun, ripper has chance of surviving while a full vessel worth of military vessel get wiped out midgame.
but game spawns more ammo for the weapon u carry for gameplay balancing which has nothing to do with that lore info
alright now we're really reaching...
I love this game, SO SCARY, I'VE JUMPED SO MANY TIMES PLAYING THIS REMAKE.
Ray tracing is path vector technology used in many situations to create collision detection, reflections, global illumination etc. Amb Occlusion is a cheat that that does not require ray/ path tracing technology.
First rule of horror games that slips people’s mind is double tapping
If y’all haven’t watched the animated film of Dead Space, I recommend it. It shows you what happened on the Ishimura.
The AI intensity director was quite a good addition to the remake man :)
I barely notice it except in backtracking and even then I barely notice it, maybe one or two necromorphs in different areas but I've not had any big moments and I'm chapter 11/12
@@Kazeromaru yeah, i think it only shows itself when you backtrack or otherwise get sidetracked from your main objective, but aside from the necromorph spawns it has created stuff like changing the enviroment with blackouts, fog/mist, lockdowns, flickering lights, etc :P
It's actually possible to see Isaac's face at the very beginning of Dead Space, not many people know this but you can change the camera angle during the fly in. If you turn it around you can see his face.

Literally everyone knows this…
1:39 thats maybe a glitch. they are suppose to jump to the sealing and come at you from above or from the wall. this is how i remember them from DS1 the original. Just go and talk to them. see what they want
I've watched a few people play this but most of them are pretty used to horror games. Watching Max play this game is giving me some perspective on how unsettling the ambience actually is.
Hmmm. Max talking about remakes with Diablo music rolling in the background, smooth.
When that Tristram theme played, I looked confused at my phone because it got the theme as a ringtone.
To touch on the Remake vs Remaster conversation at the beginning, the way I see it, a remaster is the original game with new paint. So, upscaling textures and better FPS, that kind of stuff being the main focus. I remake is the game being recreated from the ground up, even if it ends up being the same game. So, something like The Spyro Reignited Trilogy or Demon Soulds are remakes even though it is pretty 1 to 1. Even if remakes change things they're still basically the same game. But, games like FF7 remake or RE2 remake, while definitely remakes and not remasters, are also re-imaginings. They change so much of the gameplay and story (this being a big part) that they are more "what if we took the basic idea, but it was different".
Everything grabbed everything that's lit up
did NOT expect the diablo 1 music before the play thru started lmao
I love how he is taught one of the coolest mechanics in the game, saves his skin by insta-killing a slasher with impale, and then immediately forgets it and blows $400,000 worth of ammo in a room full of brightly glowing sharp objects.
I love the Diablo 2 music in the background!
Juat started playing this for the very first time as i just got ps5 loving it so far
This needs to be played on the OLED to fully experience it. Great game.
Proud to say I was able to finish this game on Impossible. Crazy fun.
It hurts me to see Max use up so much ammo… 😭
It feels like max is just gaslighting everyone about the brightness in his room 🤣
I love how Max sometimes indulges in the insanity of his chat room 🤣 it's " THE SUBTITLES ARE TOO LOUD" levels of insanity.
I will defend the pulse rifle till the day I die lol. If you aim well and shoot joints one or two bursts dismembers pretty good. Even better when you upgrade it. And don't get me started on how many times the proximity mine saved my life lol.
All I can say is max u got a damn good camera to pick up that much light from such few dimly lite lights lol.
Max so scary from the beguining thats why so much light in the room 🤣🤣🤣
Imagine how ironic it would be if the Living Spaces furniture company sponsored the making of Dead Space
1:17:25 ooh yeah. It’s big brain time
The musical score is pro movie level and super interesting and terrifying.
