SO FRENCHING THE ALIEN DID COME BACK TO HAUNT ME EVENTUALLY
That's right, you can get frenched by the alien and then get almost to the end of the game without any ill-effects until SUDDENLY YOU DIE AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT
HOPE YOU DIDN'T SAVE YOUR GAME, SUCKER! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

SIERRA GAMES IN A NUTSHELL.

Also: You're going on holiday so you won't be online. WILL THE MYSTERIES OF THE FUTURE NEVER CEASE?

This post contains rather a lot of caps.

ON ONE HAND YOU SHOULD SUSPECT SOME KIND OF BAD TURNOUT FROM THAT
ON THE OTHER THEY SURE MAKE YOU WAIT A LONG TIME FOR THE PAYOFF

But then how could they crush your dreams so close to the end. 's not like it's the only instance where doing something (or not doing something) comes back to bite you halve a game later anyhow.

So I crashed in the middle of the forest full of creatures that would love to crunch me up... Better drop this form in the mail box that I found in the middle of nowhere... Oh! Did I mention that this form gets me a whistle that attracts horny, bloodthirsty, yet somehow intelligent beasts? Wait! I can' t get past this man sized boulder and conveniently I'm near the area in which roams the beast for which I have this bitch-come-here whistle. Why would I ever not use it now?!? Oh look it's here! I'll throw this rubik's cube at it. Apparently it's dumb enough tho ram though a big rock yet smart enough to get curious by this cube I threw at it. Not only it's curious, it knows what can one do with this it. So while it plays with his new toy lemme get past it, yeah it's clearly blocking the way, *pushes the beast* "move it rover!". Ok lemme write it again. The beast rams though rocks... to find a probable female... ready to tear apart any other creatures that it notices.... and it gets stopped by at 4x4 cm squared plastic toy.

Haha, yeah it's just this :P
It's not that I don't like this game, it's funny and all but it's easy to notice that this whole beast scene was forced into the game, because the only annotation to it is the form(that you get out of nowhere, and there is no information about it besides it's use), the mailbox(....in the middle of the forest), the rock(which I think it could be one of the main reasons the scene existed because you needed one to knock out guard) and Taz(don't get me started again). Everything is odd about this scene. I think that it was created at the very end of the making of the game just to prolong it, as every mentioned thing seems to be. Notice. Form that came out of nowhere, mailbox which is just a couple of pixels added to the background, and the Taz scene that could be pasted between the rock face scene and the lift scene. :P

Hey wait, if that's how the Labion Terror Beast comes into that clearing, then how is there any rock left? Wouldn't it be coming in that way all the time to get a drink and stuff? In fact if it's EVER come into the clearing then wouldn't there be at least one exit? It's not like rock grows back. And if it's never come into the clearing then why is the sign there. :O Or does it normally climb over the rock or something?

ROGER DIDN'T WASH HIS HANDS. D:

LET'S SAY THAT MAYBE YOU THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A FUNNY INTERLUDE AND NOTHING WOULD COME OF IT, AND LET'S KEEP GOING

What I did. :B

Hey wouldn't you have noticed the effect of the cracked glass as soon as you entered the tube? :O

Maybe a bigger question is why they built their landing thing right in that area! :O

WALKING AROUND WITH HORRIBLE GERMY HANDS! PROBABLY CATCH SOME KIND OF DISGUSTING SPACE DISEASE! Actually I'm kind of surprised that doesn't happen. You know, considering.
