I'm saying it strips ALL the tension away from the story, takes something about life and death and makes it about immortality.ĭon't get me wrong, I like Isaac and Carver. Now when you have this as a plot point, and can predict it well and let's be honest here, almost every story has one or more of these moments in it, making it very cliche and played out. The idea of the hero escaping an impossible scenario. So Isaac and Carver live!, Woopee, so cool, but why? Why keep a character around after setting the ground level of his impending doom? It's one of the most cliche things ever made in the history of story telling. Now i'm not saying Isaac is immortal, but what I am saying is that tricking someone only works once. They do it seems and this is something that bugs me.

So basically at the end of Dead Space 3, Isaac and Carver say numerous times, they aren't going to live. One last thing, Dead Space and Dark souls are my top lore based games I've ever played, so don't get the wrong Idea here. Before I begin, please understand that you may think i'm insane, or nit picky, and you may very well be right. I have a semi rant that I want to share with you.
