  • Next in the month of three-quels is my Bioshock Infinite review! I remember exploring Columbia in all its grandeur, dystopia, and barbershop quartets. Let's see how the vision of Kevin Levine holds up.

    Kevin Levine is a true auteur, giving Bioshock Infinite a story that's in-depth and shows a enormous creative ambition found in novels and films. He explored a new realm if his story by taking us 20,000 leagues above the sea, and it even risked his health at times. Launching with near perfect video game reviews, he bled for his work. Irrational games has come a long way, and the Bioshock Infinite gameplay is some of the smoothest and most detailed yet. So strap in for the steam punk sci-fi adventure in my Bioshock Infinite review!

    Bioshock was a brilliant commentary on Ayn Rand, and I think Bioshock: Infinite is an even more brilliant follow up. You'd assume Bioshock was meant to show capitalism=bad, socialism=good, but that's not it. There doesn't always have to be a counter argument. Instead, Infinite shows that, even though Ayn Rand's capitalist society (Rapture), doesn't work, nothing else does either. The multiple worlds of Infinite show that things descend into madness at any extreme, whether that be pure Capitalist, Socialist, Communist, etc. I friggin love it.

      @MMJrvids 6 лет назад +35

      I was against BioShock infinite mostly because I saw a lot of the early stuff for the game. They wanted the game to be even bigger and grander the what we got. Elizabeth wasn't going to toss up supplies .she was going to have moments we she would be like if we go this way we can get there fast go that way we might find more supplies. Plus her tear ability was going to be explained organically not scripted as you walk thought a hallway. Then if you play the game on normal difficulty the enemies are incredibly easy it felt more like I was swatting flys. Then there was no open world aspect that's what sold me on the game. I thought you were going to be able to explore the city on this rollercoaster rail. Instead it was just an A-B transportation system. Then there where no real rewards for going off the beaten path. What do I mean there where secret chest and enemies you could fight . But it was just dumb AI garding a box of commen collectables. In the first two go off the beaten path and find a %100 optional boss and get rare gun or plasmid. Or stumbled into and very interested puzzle or even a challenge room. I've heard infinite is better on harder difficulty but it left me feeling like it was a generic shooter wrapped around a good story.

    This game, for me, is just like most every "greatest game ever". Bioshock infinite, is it perfect? No. But it's still a great time. Ocarina of Time. Is it perfect? No! But it's still a great time. Final fantasy 7, Chrono trigger, undertale, etc. I don't play games to pick them apart and go online so I can sound smart, I play games to enjoy myself. I personally prefer the first Bioshock but the other 2 are still a good time.

    • @adamcrawford1390
      @adamcrawford1390 6 лет назад +42

      TheDuckClock I don't think there is one. It's completely subjective as to what games a person would call great to begin with. I guess objectively speaking the "greatest game ever" would have to be something that not only sold the most copies but also a game with the most positive reception ever! It's kind of impossible to measure that. Even if it's flawed if it's loved by everyone it's a great game. The term "greater than the sum of it's parts" comes to mind.
      My personal favorite game (s) of all time is classic Doom (doom 2, final Doom, etc.) Especially when it's nearly infinitely modable. I can almost say it's almost perfect in every way considering it's from 1993, and modern source ports make it a fantastic experience for me. That's just my subjective preference though. For me, a great game is anything made with passion and effort. Even if I'm not into that particular game I can still recognize it as a great game by developers who care. I can also tell when a game was just crapped out for easy money. Steam is full of that kind of stuff.
      So in short: idunno. It's too subjective to say for certain. I CAN tell you what games I feel are contenders for the greatest game ever, if you want.

      Bioshock Infinite would have to be greater then the sum of it parts, because many of it parts were done so incompetently; from poor weapons selection and handling ruining the main focus of gameplay, to Narrative pacing that was filled with plot holes and crammed into a backlogged over drawn reveal that would only surprise the mentally challenged, that and the world building where vigors wouldn't realistically be used by residents of Columbia and voxophone recording being used to record the most unbelievable subject matter leading to a poorly done world building. This isn't even addressing the fact that they had a lot of art content done from enemies to level design that was never developed into anything other then a short stealth sequence.

Don’t get me wrong I respect the first one and think it’s a classic also and the 2nd one I love a lot more than most it seems (especially Minerva’s Den) but I feel BioShock 2 is the best gameplay wise out of the first two and BioShock has a great story but the gameplay is a bit clunky and the last boss is pretty bad but I feel Infinite is good at both the gameplay and story aspect

  • @Acromion11
    @Acromion11 4 года назад +27

    When I heard that newest BioShock is getting a new setting, that being metropolis in the sky, I assume I would like it. I was not wrong. This game is near perfect. The combat (both vigor/plasmids and firearms) seems way better than its predecessors. Story is unmatched, did I care about Jack and Delta and Eleanor, sure, but Booker and Elizabeth are so damn likeable charachters that you get invested in their stories immediately when each of them "hit" the screen. Art and graphics are on another level, in details such as Elizabeth's nail polish being scrubbed off during her quest in DLC. I do admit I cought myself just starring over the horizon more than a few times while traversing Columbia. The game is beautiful and is not shy to show off.
    Easily 10/10 for me!

Yes, Bioshock is a modern masterpiece, and Bioshock 2 is a fantastic followup, but I preferred Ken's choice to reinvent the franchise instead of just continuing to have it take place in Rapture. That would have been an easy way to print money, but he wanted to do something new, and I thought that Infinite was just as exciting and masterful as Bioshock, but in a fresh way. I hope that Ken is able to continue making games going forward, after giving so much over to this game.

    I definitely disagree on the two-weapons things. If anything, having only two weapons decreases the amount of choices you have. It's having multiple weapons with limited ammo when you get to strategize what weapons you use for what situation. It's a lot more of a fun way to go about it that "think out your scenarios" idealogy and it's part of why the first two Bioshocks are so well received even years after they came out, unlike Infinite who a lot of people tend to look down on for its streamlining and lack of options. It's like if Serious Sam 4 or Half Life 3 only let you have 2 weapons at a time. Huge bummer for the gameplay!

Later after that explanation, delivered trough an audio diary, you come to confront yourself with a Big Daddy on a casual rampage, even if a Little Sister isn't involved. This is because a Big Daddy, as Eve and Adam, are part of a experimental and unsure technology and thus far unstable.
