>hear /v/ say this game is shit for 10+ years
>finally play it
>it's amazing, gorgeous and a thought-provoking masterpiece
Why did people hate this game? Yes, the lighthouse puzzle is ridiculous and the veggies are flat, but that's only like 0,001% of the game.

/v/ hates video games, people come here exclusively to shit on video games and the people that make them. you had fun? no one gives a shit.

It insists upon itself

Most people played more than one game and have standards.

You might be retarded, or just have shit taste. Infinite is hot garbage.

the big open interconnected areas with rails are 10/10 action bits. its jsut a shame that those things were supposed to be a lot more prominents but were largely cut.
the powers were a lot more fun than the original
I also quite like the level with Slate, all of his dialogue is quite kino


and of course the game is also just all around beautiful and atmospheric

its far from perfect but it is indeed severely underrated

It's probably one of the worst games ever made if you know the whole development backstory. All that is left is a hollow shooter with a gimped story that got shat out quickly because of Ken's incompetence.
>>
>>732256106
Because it wasn't like the first gameplay proof of concept, which we all know is a legally binding contract all devs agree to when they concept anything, that its actually not a concept
>>
>>732256106
Now play the first two bioshocks and youll see why.
>>
>>732256106
Bioshock Infinite has a bad story that thinks it's smart, and it tries to lecture you like it's smart, when in fact it's one of the dumbest things ever made

This game is the equivalent of sitting down for downy's TED Talk
>>
>>732256614
It was more than proof of concept you disingenuous dickwad.

/v/ hated it for black people, first "puzzle", and drastic themetic shift
I was still my favorite single player shooting game for a very long time

I don't understand if threads like this are bait or if low IQ normalfags genuinely come to this board to scream about their shit taste and beg for their kind to validate them. In any case, Reddit exists. If this website makes you uncomfortable, go home.

>fun
Yeah
>amazing
Nah
>Gorgeous
Absolutely
>thought provoking
DAE Colonialism bad?? I (((Ken Levine))) think so!
>>
>>732256794
i dont think that is ever implied, quite the opposite really, as the social commentary could be interpreted as explicitly christian its self as it revolves around religious hypocrisy which was a major aspect of Christs teachings

the entire point of Columbia was that it did not operate anywhere near christian morality despite all of the pretense, which is probably honestly one of the most poignant and important critiques it could have made from a christian perspective
>>
>>732256625
Funny because when those came out /v/ was saying they were a bunch of console garbage and nothing like System Shock. The "old gud, new bad" meme really rings true.
>>
>pretending bioshock infinite is some masterpiece of writing only for high IQ chads
Reminder thar Kenny only went for a LE MULTIVERSE ending because, quote, "I is dumb and temporal physics make brain hurty xD".

Fuck off midwit.

Why would I play that instead of my modded New Vegas ?

columbia is just so cartoonishly fucking retarded i can't take any part of this dogshit game seriously

>let's make a epic whites only chud paradise in the clouds!

High IQ masterpiece for smart gamers.

a shit ending ruins a fine game, and retroactively ruins a series meaning it gets a fuck load of hate

Lmao.

Literally killed the franchise.

literally happened in real life, whats the problem?

>t everyone on Columbia is heccin evil and deserves to be shot?!
thats something you just completely made up, and there is literally an entire portion of the game where the villain of that part is someone trying to murder innocent columbians, which is portratyed as a bad thing


kinda funny i guess the game was too high IQ for you after all. how embarrassing
>>
>>732257318
It's not unlikely though. In a more realistic scenario, they would import white ethnicities they'd consider "lesser tier" like the Irish or slavs. It would be whites fighting other whites. In the final product, the fighting parties are more visually distinct from each other.

>I am stupid!
weird thread but ok OP thanks for sharing
>>
>>732256106
A general rule proclaims that if a game has time traveling or multidimensions it's a sign of a very lame writing. This one has them both.
>>
Gaming press at the time overhyped it because they were insecure about the place and image of games in the popular consciousness at the time.

/v/ then undersold it to maintain cosmic balance

you are just retarded

Still butt blasted over ten years later

>>732256106
Bioshock was an immersive sim. Bioshock Infinite was a Halo clone. The fact a game that takes place in a flying city with ziplines everywhere is more linear than a game that takes place in a submarine is fucking insane.
>>
/v/ didn't call it shit though

we just loved to poke fun at specific moments
>>
>a thought-provoking masterpiece
AHAHAHAHAHAHA YOURE A RETARD LMAO

I wonder if he's still seething that people want to sex his waifu. lol
>>
>>732256106
It is indeed thought provoking. I've spent probably hours thinking about why the devs decided to discard so much of what made Bioshock 1/2's gameplay so good in exchange for a lmao2guns dudebro shooter wannabe with not-plasmids so shitty they might as well not exist.
>>
Legitimate question: How are the previous Bioshock games in comparison to Infinite? I had never played Bioshock before, so bought Infinite on sale and absolutely despised it. Is gameplay/story similar between them all?
>>
i still jerk off to my wife, Elizabeth
>>
>>732256106
Wait a minute this post....
>>
>>732260095
Infinite is the black sheep of the trilogy. You would find 1&2 significantly different, arguably the highlight of the entire series is the DLC for 2. Really you should have played 1&2 then stopped

>choose to throw the 77 ball at the negro

Player choice?

pine marten on toast for breakfast x
>>
>>732260207
Yeah, I bought it because it was on sale for super cheap and the others weren't at the time. I'll give 1 and 2 a shot though.
>>
>>732256106
The story was a fucking mess and the ‘explanation’ they slap in your face during the last ten minutes was awful
>>
>>732256106
i feel like if it had some more time it would have been really good

See there's your problem right there
>>
>>732260095
its been too long to say since i played 2 but it is better than the original from a game play perspective

in 1 the plasmids were much more boring as most of them are shit like basic projectile but firball/ ice ball/lightning bold" etc theres no fun shit like the blink attack from infinite you also can only have like 2 at a time, with eh caveat being that you have all the guns
the other thing is that most the enemies are melee and in your face all the time and it gets kinda tedious fast
theres far too much hacking minigame stuff

that being said the presentation and atmosphere is still amazing an
>>
2 is better but Infinate is a perfectly serviceable game
>>
>>732256794
I think the sin is pretending to be morally upstanding christians while engaging in slavery because everyone is too lazy to do menial work
>>
Wait a minute that card
>>
>>732256106
enemy AI wanders into your bullets and the overall story is one of the worst implementations of many worlds theory ever devised
the ending is dumb as shit too

worst of all, this shit killed any chance of Freedom Force 3 ever happening
>>
>>732263735
>>
>>732256106
I liked the atmosphere a lot as well. It was very well done. I think there are sections of the story I disn't like. But it was good overall.
>>
el choque del bio infinito

>>732256106
i thought the murica christian white niggerwhipper phonk edit setting was interesting for the communist revolt theme that bioshock has

its been so long that i forget how the combat felt and the finer details of the plot and writing, i should revisit it
>>
>>732263630
pfff
>>
>>732256348
This is one of the few times where this is actually legitimate criticism. The game thinks it's deeper than it is and gets lost within the story it created.
>>
>>732263735
The fact that the time loop metaphysics bullshit was put at the end of a game that started with that shit is probably the biggest proof that the game was mangled from parts there ever is.
>>
>>732256106
It falls apart at the end
The whole time travel plot is nonsensical
Time travel plots in general need to go back to 1985 and stay there
>>
>>732256106
>It's not a bad game, it's a bad X game
This is one of those cases. There's a lot to Bioshock Infinite that's neat, but it plays nothing like a Bioshock game, so people hate it. Myself included.
>>
>>732256106
why do you keep making this thread?

Haha yeah that never happened in America
