or that's just what i understood from what Sonic and Avion mentioned, so is that willpower that keeps him safe from going in a rampage, and just before the leviathan kills Akers he seems to manage pretty well his monster form, cause he starts to do some weird movements like standing in four legs; seconds before getting killed and why does the WAU killed him? The WAU is not evil. I don’t blame WAU for the way it’s been acting, but that doesn’t mean I wanna stick around and cross my fingers. Many think tgat human main reason, but i disagree. They are kept alive by various tubes and encased in black ooze, the structural gel.
However, most of the corpses aren’t corpses. Well, first of all, he didnt have to live for a year under sea with crazy AI present everywhere and knowing that whole world is dead - he was more stable to begin with, less prone to extreme emotions upon activation.

The WAU was initially developed by Carthage Industries and contained in the classified Site Alpha. Even if it did, it would lack the very necessary things that would make it able to understand and react like a human. Change ), You are commenting using your Google account. SOMA. Все ... WAU tries to save everyone, it just was not very successful when it started to try out differrent things, with unpleasant end results.

The first monster you encounter in SOMA is vaguely human.

What an amazing modern horror story this game was. Load my consciousnesses into the computer and let’s head to the stars! I destroyed the very reason I was alive and able to launch the ARK. I guess keep all these people breathing and thinking. It does not understand being tied to a corporeal form and maintaining sanity and identity. For that In SOMA, it is a very different planet only suitable now to one form of life, which had showed time and time again to flourish within it. Since WAU without even realizing it, destroyed the last chance. Why did WAU kill some of the few humans remaining on PATHOS-2? This was an awesome explanation! What are they? If Simon accepts, he inserts his arm into the WAU, a rudimentary solution of injecting the modified structure gel, then Dr. Ross will attempt but fail to kill Simon to prevent the WAU from learning of his immunity to the modified structure gel. A photo taken by Dr. Ross of the WAU's first stage of growth, scribbled over by Dr. Ross. or do they have a purpose they all pursue?

How is it even possible for that thing to revive things with some robotic parts and a structure gel? SOMA does not feature any loading screens throughout the entire game, but the name of the levels will appear in the Load Game option at the Main Menu. That’s putting a lot of faith in something we can’t control! WAU, otherwise known as Warden Unit, works with the humans on PATHOS-2 to preserve the future of humanity. A photo of the WAU in it's original incarnation, shortly after it was built.
Some players are rooting for the bad guy as humanity’s last hope, but why? Amy Azzaro can be found fused into a stalk from the WAU, being kept alive artificially.

An uncropped, clean photo of the WAU's first stage of growth. Ditto, of the WAU's third stage of growth. The WAU never attempts to directly intervene with Simon and Catherine's plans to reach and launch the ARK, however its offshoots do. If you're new to SOMA, you may want to view the Tips and Tricks section for some advice before playing the game. Cark Semken who you meet in the very beginning is not crazy, because he is oblivious to his state. During this time, Dr. Ross tried to contact Omicron employee Raleigh Herber to fulfill his plan to destroy the WAU's heart at Alpha. Simon is lead to the center of Alpha where the WAU's heart resides. I believe he can only communicate, but doesn't control them, because I never saw of example where he directly controls a creature. This is gonna be fine! But while exploring the freak show that PATHOS-2 has become, it’s hard to argue WAU has set humanity on the path to prosperity. The robots you find, like the first one injured on a conveyor belt, are the WAU uploading their consciousness into these bots. It is presumed that the WAU was the one who uploaded the brain scan into the DUNBAT. I mean, Simon turned out pretty good, he’s getting better by the day. Perhaps Simon is the WAU’s ultimate creation.

You go through the majority of the game believing the WAU is an evil being, killing the very last humans and creating the utter destruction on the multiple underwater colonies you explore. Все ... WAU tries to save everyone, it just was not very successful when it started to try out differrent things, with unpleasant end results. However, as the story progresses he seems that he is indeed a robot. While Simon is travelling to Tau through the Abyss, Dr. Ross guides Simon towards Alpha, with the intent of using him to destroy the WAU once and for all. This is the only other lifeform that you really encounter (that is still around) besides you and Catherine that is a sentient being created by the WAU.

Kat is the only exception. And did the WAU noticed? It acts as the main antagonist of SOMA and Transmissions. Human? or do they have a purpose they all pursue? It cannot understand like a human. For that reason, this walkthrough is split up into each level's name. Humans infected with the Structure Gel were bio-mechanically engineered and put in trance-like comas, unaware of their surroundings and what was happening to them. And most troubling: WAU NEVER EVER EVER shuts down any of the running versions once they are activated no matter what unless it has no choice. “You never know how they’re going to apply something, even with the best intentions coded. Is anyone here can explain me something about WAU? Later he was injected with Structure gel, started receiving data (messages) from WAU and mutating.

But that brings to question the last monster you encounter. This caused a few unintended consequences. Two reasons: he has a purpose that keeps him sane, and his "robot" body is a close enough human analogue that his existence isn't that different from a normal one. It doesn’t cackle like a supervillain; in fact, it doesn’t even talk.

The only reason it succeeded with Catherine is because Catherine, as she puts it, never felt comfortable as a human.
