The fact is that the majority of our thoughts and actions are on autopilot. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing either. Our habits, routines, impulses, and reactions carry us through our lives so we don’t have to stop and think about it every time we wipe our ass or start a car.
The problem is when we’re on autopilot for so long that we forget we’re on autopilot. Because when were not even aware of our own habits, routines, impulses, and reactions, then we no longer control them they control us. Whereas a person with self-awareness is able to exercise a little meta-cognition and say, “Hmm… every time my sister calls me and asks for money, I end up drinking a lot of vodkas.
As it turns out, Colt Vahn is an amnesiac who seems to have woken up on a beach with no memory of why he is on Deathloop party island, Blackreef. Thats okay though because someone has left him vague messages in the sky about what to do.
This particular piece of meta-cognition is pretty powerful, which is why I think it’s so good. It lets us know when we’re acting irrationally, when we’re losing our minds, when we’re being too sensitive. And it lets us know when we’re acting like the real you, when we’re being too sensitive.
In the trailer, we see the same scene that we saw in the game, but snoop’s actions seem to be more extreme. The amnesiac tries to take out all eight Visionaries before they realize that he’s not a Visioneer but an actual person with a gun. He then tries to kill the whole party in a crazy manner, but it doesn’t work because we’re seeing the same scene.
The trailer shows many similarities to the game, but the amnesic has taken on many new roles. He is the leader of the amnesiacs, a snoop, an enemy, a party member, and finally, a member of the team that is going to kill the Visionaries.
It’s a little hard to tell who all of these people are because they all seem to have different faces. Colt Vahn is the amnesiac leader, the only one who seems to be recognizable, and it is implied that he is the same as the amnesiac who took out the Visionaries in the first place. He is also the only one who seems to have a gun.
Snoop does not appear to have a gun in the game, but it is implied that he has one because all of the amnesiacs are armed. It is also implied that he is the only one who is not armed.
This is a mystery of sorts. He appears to be the only one on Deathloop who has no fear of death. I have read in some places that he is the only one who is not afraid of anything. That would mean that he has no fear of being dead, which I think is a very good thing because he will actually have a lot of potential and a lot to offer someone who has no fear of death.
The amnesiacs on Deathloop have been given different forms of power, which I suppose is nice. However I think a lot of what our old friend Snoop is going to do is be a bit over the top, but this trailer is really very good, especially when it comes to the costume. I think it is pretty appropriate that he wears a dress, because he’s been in this situation before. That being said, the dress is not only very revealing, but also very feminine.
