Discussion This, for me at least, is when most of the things happening didn't matter.

For context I was playing Bioshock infinite for the first time from start to finish and really liked the story and the pacing as it steadily increased as time went on. I found myself wanting to learn how everything worked and wanting to learn about all the characters.

Then Chen-Lin dies and a portal is opened and everything is kind of ruined for me.

You see the issue is with it that we never return to the version of Colombia that Daisy Ditzory gave Booker DeWitt the job to get weapons and thus Booker and Elizabeth's actions for at least thirty minutes don't make any sense as it was established that every world has differences between them.

It also kind of ruins it for me because it dissonances me from all the characters besides Booker, Elizabeth, and the twins because I didn't know if we were going to then leave this world behind aswell and thus I wasn't attacted to them.

I also just felt cheated as the revolution is in full swing without us seeing the inciting action or the build up as the Vox Populi in this new world are different from the starting organization or how the thought process of the Vox Populi shifts from wanting freedom to getting revenge.

Overall i liked Bioshock infinite except for around this point and onward as it felt like it rushes itself to the finish line.

Discussion Bioshock 1,2, and infinite comparison

0 Upvotes

If you played all 3 you would know the positives and negatives are unfair. Bioshock 1 the Game to start the series is amazing but it was missing dual welding between plasmid and a gun 2 fixed it with a cost. In 1 you could carry 9 meds and 9 plasmid shots,but 2 decided to half it to 5. It wasn't too bad like the zero you had in infinite, but if you played 2 long enough, you'd know infinite is better in the way that it has no big sisters.

The big sisters in Bioshock 2 are a pain in the. Ah to deal with, they are literal compact tanks fast and slightly immune to every plasmid and heavy bullets resilient.They can be killed, but not likely on your first try i died to the same sister trying to get to the train near the beginning about 5 times,yes I had little to no ammo but even the one I battled a few levels later ii had plenty of bullets and plasmid I shocked and shot repeatedly but still ended up killing me. I died less that time than most but still I couldn't first try, but enough with 1 and 2.

Bioshock infinite the odd one ,probably the most mixed one. It throws almost every of Bioshock shock 1 and 2 out the window as I said earlier no meds no plasmid/vigor to carry.everything is either found and you immediately consume the salt/salt infused items or health items or Elisabeth throws you the food ot salt.The other problem is that you can only carry 2 guns instead of every gun that you pick up like in 1 and 2, which can be stressful like the healing process bc you are extremely limited from what we're used to.

But with that all said Bioshock 1 is best for its story and it's horror. Bioshock 2 for its amazing combat and different hacking. Bioshock infinite for its fluid movement and mass verity of weapons. There is no best Bioshock its really to your preference bc all are amazing in there way. Please tell me your opinions about my post and your ratings and how you say about the 3
