Either way you step up to base with SCP-689, you're gonna strike out. It's just too overpowered (689 op pls nerf) and uninteresting to make a unique impact on the game. Really now, what possible outcome can this SCP give you when seeing it in-game? Is there really any question of it? You're gonna die either way. I think Regalis chose not to implement it for a reason, because it's a poor use of the vision mechanics. Just my two cents though.
I disagree.
I gladly respect your opinion, but I'm just stuck wondering: why?
It's a statue that kills you when you look at it and then look away, instantly. That's probably the least innovative use of the vision mechanics I could think of. 096 on the other hand forces you to make sure you're careful when around it, you have to look about cautiously and if you do trigger it, you can still try to make a break for it, for your amusement (or horror more typically). On the other hand, this just kills you if you even see the tiniest smidge of it. This might literally just become another 012 if it were to be added. Just because an SCP
can get added to the game easily doesn't always mean it
should.

Except 173 doesn't kill you if you do as much as see it.

I'd like to know where did you get that info.
The notion that SCP-714 protects against all mind-based SCPs is false. It purely protects against memetic hazards, which are by nature cognitohazards, but doesn't necessarily protect against cognitohazards themselves. I'm pretty sure that 689 would still kill you.

Yeah, just useless.

But then again I don't people think many people like 1025, 012 or 895, they're not exactly very good role models.
I hate posting big rants, but yeah, this kinda bugged me, suffice to say.
It slep time bunner.
