so recently I read this in a forum from Josty81
"That's the most narrow possible view to take on the series and it means you're either not able or wanting to see the bigger picture. Bioshock Infinite, from what we know, appears to have ALL the building blocks of a 'Shock-series game: a weird, terrifying location, mutations, weird powers, closed community gone horribly wrong, human/mechanical hybrids. It's a BIOSHOCK game. Nothing about the name Bioshock says anything about a water-based setting. It only presumably refers to the biological modifications that both the character and the enemies have undergone."
And watching that 10 minute video got me a little bummed out. When you wake up and walk around Columbia that was awesome, I love the time period and the city-in-the-sky concept is awesome. But then you start shooting, and for some reason that put me off. I loved bioshock and I even played through bioshock 2 but I really don't want to fight crazy people again, and I don't understand why you would drink from a weird bottle that some guy dropped. I know I'm extremely early to be judging this game but when the reveal trailer came out I got all excited and wasn't sure why so many people hated on it. Then I learned that your character is a P.I. and he was going to do some investigating, but that second trailer is all shooting and fighting weird folks.
Basically I'm hoping there's actually some detective work to be done, and not just arriving in Columbia after shit has gone wrong and have to just fight my way out. I hate myself for saying this but it looks like more bioshock.
then I see stuff like this:
I feel like I'm going bipolar on this game....
**note that this point of view has nothing to do with the "fakeness" of the trailer of 2K's whole "slapping the name bioshock on it" thing**
