The multiplayer looks pretty good in action, much better than how that first trailer depicted it.
 
This hasn't been considered a must-buy for me for a while, but I'm thinking about it.
 
Also also, I found the sexual tension and the weird laugh at 00:18 entertaining.

Can we leave the lady alone? Like she seems pretty nervous, and she should. We are watching this, her boss is watching this, her family may also be watching this. Her job is and career are effected by this interview. So before going posting about her weird laugh (0:14), lets cut her some slack.

When I started a second play through of the first game it just couldn't hold my interest so I don't think a sequel with more of same will either.

Despite my continued skepticism over this game my expectations have been increased by this interview. I think this video actually sold the multiplayer to me better than any of the official trailers, although I'm still a little unsure of it. I'm also very glad that they do have a proper villain for this game. I think when 2K started flaunting the Big Sister so early on, certain things were unclear and it seemed to everyone as though the Big Sister was the villain of the new game. This seemed like just about the most uncreative thing 2K could have done and seemed an even bigger letdown as the villain in this game will be the successor to the brilliant Andrew Ryan. With a villain who is basically the exact opposite of Ryan it gives 2K an opportunity to explore an entirely different character and look at the pros and cons of a new style of philosophy and politics.

Same here. When I start a second play through to go the evil route I lost interest pretty fast. However a sequel is going to introduce new areas and stuff so it might feel fresh again, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Did I mention Brad is a man's man, who can make a straight man go gay?

I really want to see if you won't play this game when it comes out. Let me know when you inevitably change your mind.

This game looks way, way, WAY to similiar to the first one. Bioshock deserves much better.

Fully agree, trying TOO hard to uphold the original "feel"

I'm still not sold on this yet, I haven't seen anything that's made this game standout from the original. I get the feeling this is going to be a pretty mediocre effort.

I believe that she is totally hyping the wrong stuff. BioShock wasn't about the action – it was about the atmosphere. And if the sequel doesn't deliver in that aspect, I really couldn't care less about the rest.

I couldn't tell if the developer had flirtatious disposition or if she was just genuinely into Brad.
