This game destroyed Arkane for me.
NOTE: I did not purchase this from GOG, but on XBox One. After seeing the woke nonsense infesting Arkane thanks to Anita Sarkeesian that destroyed Dishonored, the spiritual successor to the greatest game series I've ever played, it does not surprise me that this game has finally hit the flush lever on the Looking Glass Software legacy. Pros: It's beautiful. The voice acting is well done. It says "BioShock" in the title. Cons: Literally everything else. Racist strawman storyline against anyone with light colored skin. Distorted presentation of American History. Mary Sue character who can magically find ammo, health, and "salts" as needed. Irritating writing: One moment she's upset that you're killing people and taking their stuff, and the next she's literally pointing them out for you to kill. Further, I am sick of being preached to by hypocrites. Arkane makes a huge deal out of the simpleminded "Racism iz bad!" theme without giving any kind of amplification or depth to characters, while at the SAME TIME showing their own racism. For example, their staff makes a big deal out of one point where you can choose to throw a baseball at a mixed race couple and start a stoning or you can throw it at the announcer. They were so smugly proud that "Not one playtester threw it at the couple!" Great. Good for you. Now can you explain the racism behind NOT EVEN BOTHERING TO NAME THE COUPLE?! Seriously, they are "Bride" and "Groom" even when you meet them later. They were so insignificant (beyond their skin color) that the production staff couldn't even be arsed to give them names. THAT is blatant racism: the focus entirely on a character's race above all other features. This is a child's primer to why "Racism iz bad!" with nothing else behind it. The second most obnoxious part of this crap game is that it isn't a BioShock game at all. They literally bolted less than two minutes of a recycled BS2 level into this JUST to be able to get name recognition for sales.
