Awesome job dude, but this may not have been the best time to post it. With two other great boxes out there, this wont get the attention it deserves, which is HoF btw.
#12, Oh, geez, first of all, it's an essence box. I don't know if these were added after you left or not, but they are supposed to be simple. And second, what box isn't too simple for you? You say that on all boxes. I think it's really good and captures the feel of the game. Not telling you what to think, just stating my opinion.
Sorry, but I strongly dislike it, and I resent the fact that this got Hall of Fame. It goes against the whole idea of an Essence box, and it's pretty much a summary of everything I hate about supposed "artistic" boxes like this. It has absolutely zero percent to do with Dead Space. Baby-blue background? Absolutely no "dead" or "space" in sight? To me, this looks like it's trying to be minimalistic for the sake of being pretentious and artsy-fartsy. As a box for a game, specifically a box that it supposed to convey the feeling of the game, it does the exact opposite of that. The front artwork looks very Andy Warhol-ish, and that's all fine and dandy but not for a box, especially not for an Essence box.
If I didn't already know what the game was about, and if it weren't for the title, I'd think it was come kind of art-based puzzle game of some sort. It doesn't do the game justice in any way, shape or form, and it doesn't even look that appealing, if you ask me.
It's not a bad box it just doesn't fit the game. It's well put together but if you're making a satirical box put it in the humor section cause I was sitting here thinking what point you were trying to make as well.

Very nice job. I like it. 8.5/10 + fav

#13, Actually, Essence boxes are supposed to capture the essence of a game, hence the name "Essence", they are NOT meant to be minimalistic.
That said, this is still very nice, Ryan.

Sorry, but I was expecting a lot better.

#24, I thought this was supposed to be satirical for those reasons.
[ Reply ]
I agree with Vengeance. Sorry.
[ Reply ]
agree with vengeance 100%
If this was made by someone with low rank. People would have gone on and said it was to simple and didn't convey the essence of the box.
[ Reply ]
Yeah I agree with Vengeance. A Dead Space box should have an extremely dark feel. This is way to bright. And it is very simple.
But on the good side everything is put together very well it looks like a real box I just do not like the way the box itself looks.

#25, Bravo sir. Bravo. I was wondering when someone was going to figure it out.

#29, Then you probably should've posted this in the Humor section. If you were trying to make a joke.

#30, But it's not funny.

#31, I laughed at how bad this box is, does that count? :D
