More Axel!

Couldn't agree more! Just finished my 2nd play through for the achievements and it was just as immersive and awesome as it was the first time around 2 years ago. I still have one more cheevo to get 100%, so will gladly play this again in another year or 2.

Love how atmospheric it was. The whole set / environment, game play, characters, dialogues & visuals were all great. A sequel would be much welcome.

BTW, I thought Axel was voiced by Tony Curran. He did die a bit too early, unfortunately.

That moment near his end when he thanked Ripley for saving him whilst freaking out over what just happened. He tried to comfort her with a warm embrace and a soft caress across the cheek. And assuring her that she did what she had to do to under the circumstances. To survive, basically. A few seconds later. The Alien suddenly appears behind them, seemingly out of nowhere and fatally impales our friend with it's tail. I compare this scene to the final conversation The Godfather had with Michael. Michael tells his father that his son (grandson) can already read the funny papers at 3 years of age. Don Vito fondly thinks about that for moment which brings a smile to his face. But quickly regains his focus and resumes his conversation with Michael about the "the family business". The point I'm making is that when you think about it. We aren't granted much time to spend with the ones we love. Few and far between, really! To quote that one song from Climax. Precious and few are the moments we two can share. In other words. Cherish whatever time you have with the people you care about. Because you never know if it's all going to come an abrupt end. Even though Axel and Ripley knew each other, briefly. They nonetheless developed a short but intense bond. Given the circumstances.

Was his name a reference to Axel Rose by the way? 🤔
