I enjoyed Dishonored but this one is meh. Story isn't great and the gameplay shows it's age. They have some decent level design but there is a TON of filler. You have initial areas where you make your way to the actual mission (you will load a secondary map). And these areas just seem to be there to pad the play time. The AI is really bad. Like it's 2000s pathfinding and that's it. They will hear you through walls and floors if you simply interact with an object like spinning a globe sometimes. Other times they will react even though you haven't done anything. Really hit and miss I found IF you don't keep a distance. Hearing the voice actor for Corvo in this brings back Thief memories since it's the same guy. It kept reminding me how much better Thief 1 and 2 are than this.
Pick it up on the cheap and you should get high value/fun from this. It's an enjoyable old school brain off shoot everything game with some nice variety in weapons and enemies. Super fast levels, some are 60 seconds, others a few minutes. The start of the game is a bit difficult because you don't get much ammo at all. Once you start levelling up and collecint more weapons and spells it's a lot easier. Fun game and you don't have to invest 100+ hrs of your life following markers on a map lol. Awesome music too.
Reminds you of the good old days but also how far controls have come. I can't stand the old auto aim shooters.
Bioshock 1 is such a great game. 2 was ok. Inifnite? I felt like I was playing a Serious Sam gamethe whol time. The movement speed is cranked way up to the point I wasn't even paying attention to the world. You zip around, dispatching enemies with extreme ease. Handcannon and the levitate skill lol, there is no challenge. The story meant nothing to me as I just didn't care about these characters. The 'infinite' ending is neat but this is by far the weakest Bioshock game. I only played it because it was on my list of missed gamesto check off, it diefintely could have stayed on that list.
Received it for free. Impossible to THROTTLE the... throttle with a keyboard. You have to try and tap the accelerate key and it's just super cumbersome. The control style would be much more suited to an action type drifting game. This is just a mess.
