I like to learn at games as a learning experience, and see what I can glean from all of them. Fortunately, Dead Space has turned out to be one of the more informative games. Here is a list of 15 things I learned while playing Dead Space.
1: In the future, all religion shall be banned. Nothing good ever comes from it. EVER.
2: Every space-faring ship and space station must be compartmentalized, so that they can be ejected from the larger unit at a moments notice. If there are creepy alien face eater things in the Crew Compartment, I should be able to just blow the Crew Compartment out into space.
3: At least a full 45% of any space vessel or space staton must be dedicated to providing power to said object. There should be a Backup for the Backup for the Backup to the Emergency Power of the 10th Power Generator. The only way for any section of something to lose power should be for the entire damn thing to be blown up.
4: Everyone at birth will now be equipped a radio tag, that, when their heart stops or they suffer massive physical trauma, frys their entire nervous and muscular systems, rendering the body useless and making sure nothing can use it.
5: All ships of any kind must have triple redundant auto-pilot and navigation.
6: Industrial power tools will now be the standard-issue weaponry for all military forces everywhere.
7: All space vessels and space stations are required to have a "Purge" function, which destroys all biological material inside within 2 hours, including the person who activates the button.
8: AI are to exist for personal recreational use only, and are not to be put in charge of anything useful or important or dangerous, ever.
9: When someone goes nuts and starts rambling about "alien monstrosities" and weird symbols, they are to be taken completely seriously and several battalions of military forces are to be dispatched to hunt the source down.
10: Engineers will be put in charge of everything, because they're the only ones with @#$%^&& clue.
11: We will not touch weird alien thingies we find in the ground. We will not touch weird alien thingies we find in the ground. We will not touch.......
12: Deep inter-personal relationships are forbidden in the future. They may only exist for as long as necessary to reproduce, and then must end, with the two participants being separated. This is to prevent these relationships from interfering with people in emergency situations, such as when a genocidal race of alien freaks has decided to take over your space station.
13: All places expecting to regularly deal with children must be rigged to explode with several large quantities of explosives in the case alien invasion.
14: Medical stations containing at least several days of medical supplies are required to be placed every 15 feet on-board space stations and space vessels.
15: Devices for deploying chest-high and face-high walls shall be placed every 15 feet in the floor of any station. Research has shown that these are the most effective ways of confusing, slowing and and even stopping alien freaks from tearing off important body parts.
