Bioshock Infinite

>criticising a small part of a game means you're dismissing the entire thing

you don't actually believe this, right?

No, it sucks because the gameplay sucks, and the story is weak and lacks the bravery needed for the themes it deals with, the avoidance of the word "nigger" being a good example of htis.

>purports to be a shock game
>has none of the qualities which made the series enjoyable and successful

>>381634946
No, I think it sucks because the story is retarded and the game director even admitted he based in on stuff he doesn't even understand.
Also, gameplay is just completely average.

>>381634946
No, it sucks because the gameplay is shit and the game in general goes straight into the garbage the second the actual gameplay starts.

No, this game sucks for many other reasons.

>pretends to give you the option to be racist

Faggot game with no balls

It claims to address racism when all it gives you is the one scene and an Irish only bathroom sign. It's embarrassing and literally pretentious.

who the fuck are you quoting, and who has ever said that, in exactly the manner you are implying? Matthewmatosis' video mentions this small critique for about the span of a minute, and it's a legitimate criticism. It presents a theme without exploring it in any meaningful way, or without even giving it the extra punch that could lend some (admittedly cheap) impact to it. has absolutely nothing to do with the word itself or its historical context, Bioshock Infinite fails to capitalize on other themes too and it's a failure in those regards as well.

BS:I was a disappointment because all the neat new ideas they wanted to implement got severely watered down

I'm still mad about the rails being so utterly useless

>game about racism
>no racial slurs
huh

The point of that critique is that it devalues the "shock" of making a game in such a controversial setting if the setting doesn't go all the way with it
