No, then we would have to create a companion you care about, and we can't have that in frictional game.

I'm very impressed with what i've seen so far in regards to SOMA. Though its not quite "next-gen" by graphics, the story and the horror piece will undoubtedly create a new chapter in the world of Horror.

RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

One of the actors in Depth is talking about it in terms which seem to indicate that it's bigger/more intense than the previous teasers, at least for his character:

#projectapophis is just such a project. I will be going offline until we wrap shooting. I don’t ever do this but this particular character requires complete focus with no distractions.

Huh, SOMA is going to take place in 2033? Somehow I figured it was gonna be a bit farther, still, pretty interesting.

RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

Will DEPTH be a full film or a short one like the previous (Vivarium, Mockingbird)?

•I have found the answer to the universe and everything, but this sign is too small to contain it.

I'm somewhat doubtful it'll be a full feature length film, but I'm sure it'll be longer than those two shorts.

Interesting bits of info!

I found some really short videos of one of the locations they've been scouting for the shooting of Depth; it's a nuclear tower located at an industrial area called Satsop Business Park. Not sure if they're going to end up filming there or not, but it looks wicked cool:

19 years in the future is completely unrealistic. A setting like SOMA could take place 1019 years in the future.
