After playing Dead Space for about an hour without any inspiration for a screenshot, I came across a part of the game that looked like something that might be interesting to put in a post like the one I just started writing.
A small military spacecraft was flying in the vicinity of the ship I was trapped on, so I had to repair some stuff and send a distress signal.
Here you can see me assessing the damage to the installations and considering what to do first. As always in this game, this was a puzlle involving cables, pipes, switches, and other simillar stuff.
The absence of gravity made my job a bit easier and way more entertaining than it should have been. I hate this kind of maintenance work in the house with normal terrestrial gravity.
Here you can see the mess necromorphs had left behind.
This is the same thing from a different perspective. Just like in real photography, I often use framing in my pictures, especially in wide shots.
Here you can see me observing the room while floating upside down.
This screenshot shows me observing the same room from a window of the neighboring one. It was taken before I started the repairs.
This one was taken when everything was fixed, and a bit of myst somehow entered the room.
The potential rescuers had already received the signal when this screenshot was taken. They were on their way to USG Ishimura. But now I had another problem. A mad scientist had expelled from the ship a pod with bodies infected by necroporph protozoa, and those on board the military spacecraft were close to picking it up. Now I had to stop them, or at least inform them about what's in the pod. But there was another malfunction due to the necromporph activities here on Ishimura, so I had to do more repairs to send another message.
I had to reach another part of the ship, and I encountered a very resilient monster along the way. Here you can see the silhouette of that thing that mimics the humanoid shape, but it is biologically something completely different.

Here you can take a better look at its putrid anatomy.
What once was a head of someone working on the ship, now looked like an independent organism attached to the body through a cluster of meaty tentacles ...
... and that's exactly what it was. At some point, while I was shooting at the monster with some heavy weapons ...
(Enlargeable)
... that damn head jumped on me ...
... and killed me.
I had to die a few times to get these screenshots.
Without a head, the body has grown a new appendage that resembles a chameleon tongue and behaves more or less in the same way.
To get the things ready to send another message ...
... I had to exit the ship this time ...
... and kill a much bigger monstrosity.
This was a very memorable moment.
A long and epic battle.
I encountered the same monster earlier in the game, inside the ship. I managed to expel the thing in space, but it remained atached to the ship.
I had to get rid of it for good this time.
To achieve that goal and take some good screenshots at the same time, I had to die a few times and restart that part of the mission.
This screenshot shows what sometimes happens when my fingers are frenetically flying over the keyboard in the midlle of a cosmic battle, desperately trying to catch the right keys at the right moment for a good composition.

When the necromorph was at the end of its strength, after I managed to deal considerable damage to the creature ...
... it released these explosive egg-like things that behaved like some kind of organic proximity mines.
It killed me more than once when I was so close to sucsesfully end the mission.
The monster is almost dead in this screenshot. In the following two pictures ...
... you can see it detaching from the ship.
Everything was ready to contact the rescuers ...
... but ...
... but it was too late.
They picked up the pod, and the necromorphs infested the ship. I could see it on the holographic screen.
With no one to pilot it, the fairly small aircraft lost control and crashed into the massive USG Ishimura.
Here you can see me approaching the entrance to that military ship.
Here you can take a quick look at some stuff I found inside. The place was a mess.
I continued playing the game, and what followed was also pretty interesting, but this post ends here - THE END.
Dead Space still hits like a gut punch.
those pesky necoremorphs! :P
i like the spine part of his armor.
🙂 Yes, it's a cool design for a space suit gadget ... it is also the health bar in the game, so there's no interface with health and stuff to break the immersion in the horror ...
oh cool. thats smart, whoever thought to do that..
I myself have found that when I like a game, I keep playing it and play it for a long time. It gives me a lot of joy. It's good that you have told us about this game. We will definitely try it too.
