Sooo.. i never played bioshock and the whole serie 1 week ago but i always wanted to because i knew a bit of the story and what it was, the idea of playing in a beautiful underwater city and all that jazz.

So i finished playing Bioshock 1 yesterday. I played with the good ending without harvesting the little sister like a cuck that want everything and because i find them adorable and doesnt deserve what they got, and i have to say.. WOW. Bioshock 1 is amazing. The gameplay, the story, the character. I found everyone to be like-able, in particular Andrew Ryan/Sanders Cohen/ And i really loved Tenenbaum too I found her cool as fuck and i loved her voice (played on french dubs btw). Seeing andrew ryan slowly becoming what he hated and seeing him regrets everything.. sanders cohen was really funny and disturbing at the same time..
The thing that i really liked in bioshock 1 was the Big daddy tought. Their AI is really cool. They just wander around and moan like whale, taking little sister, protecting them. I find that adorable, and their combat AI is really hard to fight to be honest, Proximity mines were OP Against them tought.

Now i've started playing bioshock 2 AND WOW it's amazing too in my opinion. Fucking love playing as a big daddy, the drill is making me feel so powerful (and at the same time, the drill feel underpowered compared to the Wrench :/) and the Big sister.. let's say that they gave me a BONER. and they feel powerful as fuck, more than a big daddy...

I can't wait to see infinite, but i've seen the Crowbcat video and it worrie me. Steam review say it's an amazing game tought so it look great anyway even if a bit downgraded.

TLDR: Bioshock is amazing. Why do you always have to hate everything guys?

Bioshock is garbage.

It's basically "Let's take System Shock 2, remove all complexity and depth from it and let's reach a broader audience".

It's shit and you should feel bad for liking it.
>>
>>376924432
yeah, but that was such a forced plot point. the story would have been fine without the slavery thing as comstock was enough of an asshole for locking up elizabeth and that shit he did with his wife. basically the slavery bad/racism bad didn't add to the game and in fact made it much more cliche
>>
>>376924603
Didn't notice that. But I wouldn't call that SJW, just hamfisted. SJW would be more like not including it to begin with because it's triggering, and maybe have a bunch of notes to read that tell you racism is bad without any context.

The couple thing seems more like basic decency to be honest. White society kinda makes sense given the setting, but I'm neither american nor a history buff so I wouldn't really know. As for Comstock, I thought the whole crazy arson nutjob part was enough to make him bad.

Not to be contrarian, but none of it really sounds like SJW stuff.

Well it's true. The united states was founded on the killings of the Native american- Well, i should say America as a whole, as been founded on the genocide of the "tribes" (maya, incas) living there before by Disease and the European. United states was founded with slavery, Slavery was what made Missisipi a prospering and growing States and now look at it, it's a shitty states for sures. This is simply history, not SJW revisionism.
War is indeed a bad thing, there's nothing good about it, and racism is bad. Black are humans just like you and me, they have feelings and emotion they feel pain and joy.
>>
>>376924437
Well, just so you know, Infinite is the COD of the Shock games, but with a SO DEEP story of alternate realities and juvenile faux symbolism and hamfisted themes that aren't explored in any meaningful way. The gameplay also took a hit, you can only carry two guns, the powers are beyond simplistic and really only one or two are ever really useful, and the whole game is just shooting and shooting. If that sounds appealing to you, then you're gonna love Infinite.

Any game with even a hint of story beyond what's necessary is pretentious. For example, games like this:

>TLOU
>Bayonetta

>Call of Duty
>the Xeno series
>shucks, any RPG really
>The Order 1886
>Zelda
>etc

In the video game medium, movies shouldn't be allowed, but Hollywood has stuck its dirty appendages into our industry's orifices, so now we need to deal with walking simulators and rehashed B-grade movie plots put into poorly made video games. The only things that should ever be considered good are pure videogames, ones without the taint of plot everywhere.

RPGs aren't good in the first place, mate.

good or bad, the plot is what moves an rpg. i sure as shit don't play final fantasy for the turn-based combat

So instead of acknowledging slavery was a thing your answer is "lightbulb".

Brilliant.

Then why not just watch it on youtube? If you're not interested in actually playing the game, then there's no point.

>>376928693
You think I've played and replayed FFT and all the other Ivalice games for their story? While I do love their narrative aspects, it's not at all why I play them so much. And if your RPG would be shit without the story, then it's a shit RPG.
>>
>>376928937

Pong actually requires you to interact with the game, instead of progressing cutscenes.
>>
>>376928948
Because there are RPGs where your choices actually affect the story and where you have to actually design you character?

Are you fucking dumb or is this some 4D chess bullshit?

lightbulbs are pretty cool. plus, slavery didn't build shit in america would have been as propserous, if not more so, without it.

Those are exceptions though, not the norm. Well written RPGs with real choices that affect the story in meaningful ways are not the majority in any way.

I just beat Infinite again and I feel the same way.

Columbia is a really interesting place to explore and learn about, and the duality between Fitzroy and the Vox Populi and Comstock and the Founders while feeling a bit on the nose, was still cool to watch play out.

Then it all gets thrown away when Elizabeth becomes a God that explore infinite dimensions and then the game becomes all about her and her two dads, while also having that implied meta of all video games being the same, which isn't nearly as strong as Bioshock's meta of the player only having as much control over a game as the game permits them.

Burial at Sea is even worse, Elizabeth is retroactively made the linchpin to fucking everything in the Bioshock series, it's like Toriyama wanking over Lightning.

because without a plot, fft would be minesweeper+

>>376929217
What RPGs are you even looking at?
>>
>>376929148
Okay. What's your point, really? America was retarded for a couple of centuries for no reason at all?
>>
>>376929396

All of them. There isn't a single RPG that actually has a "meaningful" story. That's just a marketing meme.
>>
>>376929471
Trolling confirmed, then. Kudos, satan. You almost had me for real there

Exactly. Srs kudos to you

>>376929540

You can call it a troll all you want, but until you prove it wrong, it doesn't make it any less true.
>>
>>376929334
See, that's your problem right there, you played it to experience the story. To you, learning the ins and outs, the complexities of the game, are secondary to the story. And if you get the urge to replay it, it'll be for the story again, not because it's a fun game to play.

Knights of the Old Republic II.

Yes Avellone, we know, the Star Wars Universe works on a moral clarity. You're not the first person who noticed, and you're not showing the light to anyone else.
>>
>>376929683
isn't that what games like catherine do? plus, for games like ff1 or chronotrigger the combat isnt what makes the game.
>>
>>376929669
You were wrong to begin with, since you're stuck in the mindset of JRPGs = all RPGs. Never mind the fact that RPGs have subgenres like ARPGs like Dark Souls, which is full-on gameplay over story, or Deus Ex, which was a gameplay clusterfuck.

But I'd rather think of you as a troll, because otherwise I'd have to concede to the fact that a person could actually be as stupid as you. I'd rather believe the former, for your benefit.

>You were wrong to begin with, since you're stuck in the mindset of JRPGs = all RPGs.
No, my assumption was that RPGs in general are a flawed genre, no matter the sub-type. Deus Ex has WAY too much talking and is nothing more than a cinematic experience, and Dark Souls is nothing more than dodge+rolling every enemy to win. The gameplay is secondary to the garbage plots they try to push.

But please, continue to imply that I'm trolling, all because I committed the heinous crime of *GASP* wanting good gameplay instead of a dumb story.

Soma
Hollow Knight
Spec Ops: The Line
Undertale
The Darkness
The Last of Us
Bioshock

That's off the top of my head.
>>
>>376919267
I did.
>>
>>376929969
I don't know about you, but I enjoy the CT combat system, and I've played FF1 more than once, the story can be summarized in a paragraph, but why do I keep replaying it? Because I like actually playing it, I like building my party and fighting the bosses and doing all that. Note that I'm not saying that I don't like seeing a game's story, just that that is not what's most important for me. More importantly, if an RPG has a simplistic or shitty combat system, it'll be harder for me to get into it unless it has a superb, amazing story, and even then.

You know the rules: keep /pol/ in /pol/ please.
>>
>>376930509

Yes, there is an objective problem with the genre when people want to skip the gameplay just to experience the story.
>>
>>376930415
it's the exploration. but just wandering around from place to place without any purpose and no overarching plot just makes it tetris with different backgrounds
>>
>>376924318
>bioshock 1 took on libertarianism much more subtly

It was not subtle in the slightest
>>
>>376930613
>Implying that role-playing is in itself, not a form of gameplay
Lmao you are objectively wrong
>>
>>376930738
More subtle than bioshock infinite. Both were shit though. Glad that shitty studio closed thier doors.
>>
>>376930808

When I can do it by watching a video of someone else playing it, then I'm not really roleplaying, am I?
