Musopticon? Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 After about six hours of playing, I'm pretty sure that I have to wait another 7 years for a game as immersive as this. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Sod it. Im so bored out of my mind that I think Im going to buy Bioshock through STEAM right this minute.

Musopticon? Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Go for it. It's spellbinding, although I'd guess the constant of kill-big-daddy-deal-with-sister-buy-moar-skillz might get tiring eventually. That said, I've killed about 4 big daddies and all of those battles were interesting and challenging. Except when I found that one type(Bouncer, IIRC) is crazily vulnerable to electric shotgun shells. And they aren't that bad against the others as well. It looks like the further I play, the more varied the features and the affective forces in battle become. Every new enemy has been a trial and error affair(with the exception of certain grenade throwers and telekinesis). The game also has the best voice acting ever, with maybe the exception of Outcast and Mafia. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Zero Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 (edited) Go for it. It's spellbinding, although I'd guess the constant of kill-big-daddy-deal-with-sister-buy-moar-skillz might get tiring eventually. It does a little bit, but I'm still very addicted to the game and near the end. The combat is still fun, but I think its an immersion issue... same with the enemies you face later on. They basically just recycle the models and voices of the enemies, so when you first encounter them its creepy and disturbing but when you see the same guy/gal walking around voicing the same line you heard 10 minutes ago ti really takes away from the experience imo. Don't get me wrong its still a great game, but I do think the overall quality of the game suffers from this and all the little sisters looking identitical. Because when you first encounter them its such a memorable experience, but you become detached from your enemies when you see they are all virtually clones. edit: Than again, this might just be a problem with this current (tech) gen. Considering all FPSs basically have repeated use of enemy models, its just that its not as noticable due to the fact that they are either masked (Combine in HL2) or aliens (Gears of War, Resistance).

Tale Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Why do people keep saying it's an 8 hour game? I'm at 11 hours according to XFire and Steam Community and I only have 4 locations showing on the bathysphere. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Big Bottom Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 There's no way in hell this is an 8 hour game. I'm at 6 hours and I've barely touched the second bathysphere area. The best flash game ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tale Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 (edited) The Steam version shouldn't be particularly different from non-Steam. It's causing no problems with my latest nVidia beta drivers, I can say for certain. Edit: I hate Rosies.

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Turns out it cant handle having the "use advanced post processing effects" on.

Daaave Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I've just got home to find this waiting for me. I'm seriously tempted to play it but I think playing drunk would kind of ruin it a bit for me. Oh decisions decisions.

Pop Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 It's not weird at all. The 360 uses a single set of hardware specifications. PCs come in all kinds. Thus making a stable game for the 360 is generally much easier than making a stable game for the PC. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

Musopticon? Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Edit: I hate Rosies. Keep closing and opening the distance between you and Rosie and continuosly shoot with electric bucks. When you empty the clip, either try to keep the distance stunt on so that the golem can't decide whether to kick you or shoot you, or take cover. The stun from electricity gives you a bit of time to maneuver around. You could also just use enrage or hypnotize. Though if you have been harvesting Sisters, you won't see the latter one. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.
