Let us play as a Big Daddy in Columbia.
Because, fuck it, why not.

Bioshock Infinite - DLC Discussion and Speculation (Unmarked Spoilers)
- Thread starter Magnus
- Start date
That's some Operation: Raccoon City thinkin' there.
I strangely like it.
We spend the whole game as Songbird, with only vague hints as to who we are. The ending ultimately reveals it?
I wanna be Delta.
Dude, I'm down with this, too. Songbird needed more screentime.
I'd like to see a kind of Minerva's Den-esque DLC, so something a little more grounded and nothing too mythology-stretching, even if it takes place in another timeline (either Booker-Martyr timeline not staring Booker or something Finkton-prime would be okay). I'd like to see if Levine and co. can do something a little more personal without having to resort to contorting sci-fi tropes and time travel, at least for one of them.
Ken Levine said that it would be stories that were self contained. I'm sure one of them will have us playing as some columbia citizen, and flesh out the ideology and the city more, without having to rely on some sci-fi mumbo jumbo.
source for this?

This would be great - I love his arc through the voxaphones.
Also, some kind of foray into rapture would be godly, that environment looked so incredible in their updated engine.

Yeah, I think it'll be hard to pull a KOTOR if you're playing as a massive metal bird. :lol

What about a DLC where they explore rapture and we can see some stuff that was cut from the first game like the Rapture Zoo and Elizibeth meets her alternative universe counterpart

The Luteces really intrigue me. I'd love to see some DLC focused on them.

Definitely, his voxophones were some of the most interesting.
I feel like you wouldn't be opposed to a 2K Marin version of Bioshock Infinite 2 where it takes place is a more sandbox Columbia (like the more open progression from arkham asylum to arkham city)

I hope is some altarnate universe thing that we dont know with new characters (something with Saltonstall would be awesome) and not the obvious martyr vox populy thing that we already know, I cant stand little of the vox populi becuase of how they turned out when they get power (understandable in the main game's story). And Fritzroy is a shitty character (in the story) that I dont want to help really. And I want more explore and less action parts, something that a rebellion of the vox populi would probably do.
Even something with Preston Down would be better than with Fritzroy. Theres nothing more to flesh about Fritzroy, she wanted to be the liberator of people, but once she got power she was as bad as Comstock, the end.
He is killed, Preston Down says it in one of the voxophones.
And you can see his scalp near the end, as he has been killed by the Vox.
Now that would be really cool

I wouldn't, but then again I'm not one of those people who need some GENRE DEFINING INNOVATIVE ONE OFF game to be pleased; I'm perfectly fine with games that are refinements over what came before, ya know?
I enjoyed Bioshock 2 a lot, since mechanically it was a fair refinement over Bioshock 1.

Mechanically yes, but it also managed to lose nearly all of the amazing atmosphere (only siren alley had some of that magical feel).
It still had the amazing Rapture atmosphere, although obviously nothing can match that first time experience. It was just a more decayed Rapture in Bio2.
The areas themselves weren't always as special though, I'd agree with that, but the general art direction was still very good.
Anyway, going to sleep. <3 Bioshock

Bioshock <3 you too, Amir0x.
Anyway, I think there are a lot of stuff we're missing from Columbia, while in Rapture we did know what happened and why, I think we're still missing parts of Columbia's history, which wasn't really explored in the game. And well, I really want more of those vistas like in the beginning. Man, I had shivers at the beginning. Such a powerful beginning.

My DLC wish?
Alternate universe of Liz and Booker where their gender's are switched.
Alternate universe of Liz and Booker where their gender's are switched.
I really hope, and this may be odd, but to be able to explore more worlds through the tears. Hell, when Elizabeth causes the tornado in the lab, I wanted more of that. More of Paris through a portal, more of Rapture- I don't know; more lighthouses!
I really hope we do get more of a backstory on Songbird, and maybe something related to Daisy.

Not alot of memorable characters either.
Andrew Ryan was much better than Lamb.
No characters that were equivalent to the magnificence to Cohen, or the creepiness of Stienman, or even Atlas for that matter.

It'd be fun playing as a Vox or even Comstock soldier valiantly trying to take down Booker and secure Elizabeth for the good of the revolution/Prophet. It'd be compelling to track the hypocritical mass murderers and their thieving, dumpster-diving ways, seeing the carnage they inflict upon both the elite and the impoverished of Columbia alike. And then you die a valiant death against them, but then the Lutece revive you, and send you to Rapture, where you become a Big Daddy or something.

Something totally batshit awesome like FC3: Blood Dragon.

I was hoping this was going to be addressed with the Vox Populi and even Fink, but we lost every pretty interesting character within an hour of knowing they existed. Shame, to be honest.
I hope that DLC makes it better. And I know this should've been in the main game, but I really just want more Columbia.

Bleh. Sinclair was better than Atlas, and Lamb was inferior to Ryan but at least equal to Fontaine. Steinmann had a couple of really good audiologs, but the larger cast of mini-antagonists in B2 would really have helped keep the post-twist Bioshock 1 from dragging.

Hopefully it is! Because it means it's not avoiding the points we want to see and talk about, like Songbird, and other stuff... Like where does all the poo go?!
