Why do people dislike this game?

[Spenny]

Whenever I read the criticism for this game, you can sum it all up with, "It's different than BioShock 1 and 2" or "Not enough Rapture".

Kinda stupid if you ask me, this game is amazing.

Steam rating is standing strong at 95% positive for BSI. Sure you wanna dig out those 5% who say otherwise?

Maybe because it was so different from the first? Personally I like it, just not as much as the first 2, great game still.

You should give exactly zero f&cks about someone's opinion. Create your own opinion, shove aside haters and fanbois.

Моя самая любимая игра из всех существующих, на втором месте Silent Hill 3.

It's more like the general opinion if you discuss bioshock with friends or somewhere online. Not really about the ratings, which always flux between bias and actual reviews. It's always "I miss Rapture" or something about the older games. Infinite is different in its approach and some of the gameplay, but otherwise it's in the same vein and flavor. People are just sort of blinded by nostalgia, they hate change, and they hate new ideas when it comes to their favorites. Infinite is fantastic, but it ain't for the super die hard "Muh rapture" fan boys.,

i dont reall get the bulls hit about someone ranting about how they miss rapture. if you miss rapture that much then why not just replay bioshock 1 and/or 2

[L@z@rus]

the only reason I disliked this game is because of their being no New Game Plus feature besides that its ok I guess

I agree.

Personally speaking, BS1 having a setting in Rapture is the better suited horror game of the series. BSI is more like an action FPS with occasional jump-scare moments. That said, it doesn't mean BSI is bad at what it's trying to achieve and the story sure as hell is compelling.

i rather like bioshock 1+2. the dlc in infinte was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ imo

[Grottomacy]

because all plot holes are explained away in tears and its super lazy and if you deep dive the timelines they dont hold water and how choices dont matter at all

[Grottomacy]

its convoluted and thats why people hate it

[ocioso4life]

It's a beautiful game, and the gameplay as a shooter is great. But the ending is depressing as hell. There's no happy ending. All your choices are meaningless. It's more like an interactive movie than a game, since there's no choice. I guess some of us hoped for multiple endings and the chance of a happier ending.

most of them hate it because it's convoluted hence they don't understand like they just play it blindly. What makes this game special is that it is "convoluted" like when you play it the first time and you don't understand ♥♥♥♥ then you play it several times and digging up explanations then you realize it's a well-constructed game, everything in it.

elizabeth being more social than booker after being backstabbed by everyone and being locked up 10 plus years is not well crafted no way she would be near insane and super withdrawn and paranoid and if choices dont matter why are they in the game at all and if theres vigor bottles everywhere why arent more enemies using them if songbird is the biggest threat for everyone why isnt he killed first before leaving most if not all of it is nonsensical when you actually think about it
