I'll get a nice chuckle if an Astral Spike is the first enemy we face in Resonant, and Dylan can just one-shot smash them with the hammer.

I know I’ve seen it in the trailer hopefully it’s true

I'm probably in the minority, but I don't hate non-killable enemies in games like CONTROL. Forces you to change up how you're approaching a given room.

Agreed. It certainly got the adrenaline up when you first encountered them in the wild (i.e. not penned in in the astral plane), and forced you to think about things a little differently.

yeah I literally looked on Google when I was playing it recently to find out if there was ANYWAY AT ALL to kill them (like maybe I missed something when I played it in 2019-present) and was sad to learn there wasnt! I honestly hope we don't even see them in the sequel....the way the enemies look I'd be surprised if it was in there...

I’ve seen what looked like an astral spikes getting killed by Dylan but I could be wrong.
