The Talos Principle - Time Capsules from Alexandra Drennan

Just a reminder that Alexandra will never be forgotten

That little Jerusalem text adventure easter egg in Road to Gehenna is beautiful closure to Alexandra and her team. This is my favorite game. I cannot wait for the sequel.

Who else is listening to these in cough cough in 2020?

I just cried watching these again.

How is it possible to get this attached to a character you only hear speaking for 15 minutes!? This game is truly special!!

Croteam told one of the most thought-provoking and beautiful stories I've ever seen - through emails, snippets of old texts, audio logs, and debates with a conflicted A.I. - over a foreground of simple but elegantly designed gameplay with a gorgeous soundtrack. My appreciation of humanity - and my capacity to question it - have grown because of this game.

The pompeii audiolog must be my favorite really affected me

This is pure gold

Great game, but I did away with all of these pretentious sound bites. It's not so much that they are pretentious, but her delivery sounds pretentious. Fire away now, boys. You have my blessings.

The graphics in this video were way better than the game when I played it haha

Her last entry is so impacting

Here lived a race of giants

Been play this for long time ago, my English is not as fluent as today is, and now I'm pretty lazy to get back playing it again. Now I can enjoy the record I couldn't understand back in the day, now.

Appreciate the effort to take all of them and bring them here.

i think i'm halfway through the game and i can't do it. i start crying everytime i listen to these capsules. i need to discuss this with someone. it's so undescribably beautiful and deep.. more than anything i've experienced in my boring life. i fear that when i finish this game, i will fall into one of the worst voids any game has ever given me. definetely life changing

The song on the floating islands place just kills me.

Has it been 4 years? Still thinking about this game. "Initiate a process that extends beyond your own lifespan".

If you’re looking through the archive, you mind find people from my time claiming that civilization doesn’t really matter.
That we’d be better off dead.
We have a lot of cynics like that.
I hope they seem as absurd to you as they do to me.
I hope you can find something in all those files.
A song, a book, a movie, maybe a game.
Just something that you love, that makes you realize how much poorer the universe would’ve been without it.

I often listen to this video, God I love this game

retarded ass game

What a masterpiece

I felt that I had a relationship with Alexandra. This game can take you into another world or two or three.

I really appreciate this game for its honest depiction of humanity. It does not insist that humanity is perfect by any means, though I think it gives something that a lot of people overlook nowadays. I see more and more people fall into a mindset of raw misanthropy. People often obsess over the negatives of the world and of humanity and rarely take a second look at the kindness and brilliance. It is easy to notice the person who kicks a homeless man while down or abuses their pet dog, but the person who gives that homeless man a meal or heals the abused dog go far less noticed. For all the deliberate misinformation in the world which leads to demonstrable harm of humanity and the earth, there are countless people who are fighting back against it.

Nice la escucho cada rato em español

You should listen to this before the End.

I keep coming back to this. Her voice is so soothing, and sometimes you just need the peaceful moment of reflexion on life.

“Perhaps sometimes the only way to experience the beauty of things, is to think about things in a beautiful way”

Thank you for taking the time to make this!

It has been so long since I played this game, but I still comeback to listen to the capsules. I can't wait for the sequel!

Any chance we can get something similar to this with the sequel? :)

That last audio really hit different (with that part when she wishes that some part of her persist in the future) knowing that in the sequel Athena uphold Drenan's values and ideals so much even chosing Drenan's voice as hers, that she seems like she is Alexandra Drenan herself.

Knowledge is a kind of freedom ✨

Listening to her while just staring at the beautiful scenery was my fave part of the game. The beautiful music makes it perfect

This is by far the worst part of talos principle. would have been a masterpiece without this in it. Symptom of wanting to explain too much.

A tragic end to a brilliant woman. Great writing, great performances.

Here after the awekening trailer, I'm so glad we're going to get more Alexandra Drennan

<3

Thanks a bunch

whomever that voices her is amazing it feels like she is alexandra it's almost like they somehow grabbed those capsules and copied em from that timeline :)
