Would you kindly head to Ryan's office and kill the son of the bitch.
Sorry, I love that line.
Oh C'mon, it's like an hour into the game and you know Elizabeth is with you the whole game.
Gracias! I knew it reminded me of something...

My God, that track was amazing. Ominous as fuck.

and even if it's only 2 minutes into the game, it's a huge event in the game and there is no need to ruin it for other people don't you think?

Who likes doing this? Who likes looking through all these things to find trinkets? I know this has been a staple for generations, but I am so tired of this. I HATE this. Why is this a thing? It's not immersive. It's not rewarding. It's not interesting. It's fucking monotonous.
Infinite is not the first and won't be the last game to do this. Borderlands was a thousand times worse. I'm just reaching a breaking point with this.
Elizabeth: Do you here that? Sounds like someone crying.
Me: Hold on. I have to look through all this SHIT. Maybe I'll find some credits or something.
I'm better now.
But not really.

Nebelwerfer Zeppelin was great. I got a chuckle out of it.

Yeah, this is pretty much why Borderlands is still my least favorite game this gen. It's the gaming equivalent of a cat toy, just without the benefit of there being a cat.

This game on hard is at times more unfair that playing COD on Veteran - which I call COMEPLTE BULLSHIT
Whoever designed the boss fight encounters needs a slap. ALL OF THEM SUCK. They ruin the challange of the rest of the game - which is fun on hard

All the looting is the one thing keeping it from a 9/10 in my head. I feel like a fuckin' janitor playing this game sometimes, clicking on every damn object so I don't fall behind on the upgrades. It's the opposite of fun. Anti-fun. The lowest form of "exploration". And it's EVERY ROOM. It's like if RE4 had a dozen wooden boxes and barrels you should check in every room, for 12+ hours. Mikami would be like, "Ok, cut out 2/3rds of these damn things so the pacing doesn't go to shit, pls"
Bioshock.... I got the game 2 days ago and i must admit i'm kind of disappointed so far. To be honest it was the location and artwork that attracted me to the game so i really didn't know what to expect from the gameplay side since i only saw others playing bio 2 but never tried it myself. And then bam, it's just another shooter game... The narration and graphics are nice, music and characters are lovely but this shouldn't have been this kind of game. I don't know how to put it but something is just missing, fps isn't the right type for this game. Although i want to end it even after only 2-3 hours i'm tired of the gameplay, but i would like to end it for the story only... such a shame to be honest :/

Oh yeah, that moment. Gotta say it was where the game peaked for me. Too bad the rest of the game couldn't live up to it.

I'm stuck on it now...How'd u beat it?
If you're where I think you are, you can't actually progress anyway, you'll be forced to explore that hub once you go to your current destination.

Help on boss:
Try and ignore the little minions and only focus on her, she has a lot of health but eventually she'll go down. When she dies, the rest of them evaporate.
I don't think so. I had 71 in my first play through and in my second play through the ones I have found added to my achievement progress.
Edit: The same goes for the achievement for watching all of the movie clips and using the telescopes.

I would love to play the first 2 hours of this game with Occulus Rift.
Ok. Main reason I ask is it says head to Comstock's house, and I just don't want to be locked out of exploring the other areas. I assume after I goto my objective the game will lead me down the other 2 hairpin lock areas afterwards? I went exploring down one, no save points at all, came across a cemetery (but there was nothing to do besides kill 2 soldiers)

I know how you feel.
If you need a bit of help, the second you go out the gate turn right and make a U-Turn. Go into the tomb with the four med-kits. Camp there, and take potshots at her from behind the grave in-front of the med-kits. Hope Liz gives you enough Ammo and Salts to keep going.
I am having problems here too on Hard - but she is beatable this way if you take your time
It takes way too long to be fair. Terrible encounter design
Yeah, you're where I thought. Go where it wants you to, and it'll force you to explore that level before you return and can progress.
Dude spoiler tags. Normally i get games 2-3 days earlier i will so ruin The Last of Us for you bro.
Yeah it doesn't seem to have much to do with Anarchism as I understand it.

My guess is that BioShock isn't interested in things that don't become a complete disaster.

Charge + Shotgun helped.

I am almost ready to tun this game down to medium.
The main game is fantastic on Hard, but the boss encounters are impossible
Do I ruin the fun of the main game by going to medium, or do I ruin the pacing of the game by having to play boss fights multiple times?
I am starting to feel this game could have done with a few more months of polish

What items do you have? I despised this section as I was pretty low on everything.
I had more or less nothing entering the graveyard except a pistol and an empty crank gun so I relied almost solely on the shotgun and heater that are within the area. I stayed consistently within the tiny narrow passage underneath the centre 'jut'. Devil's Kiss works somewhat decently to do damage and Incendinary (apologies if I got the name wrong) in this thread said that using an upgraded Charge made the fight simple (it was the only Vigor I didn't upgrade so I can't confirm this but I trust the strategy). Possession is good for some brief respite as is the upgraded Crow Vigor. If you have a carbine/sniper/hand cannon you're in luck and if you didn't use all the ammo the Crankgun on the wall may be useful. This section was, by far, the most annoying section in my opinion, it felt to me like it was merely an endurance test. How much money do you have? If you're almost broke anyway you could just keep on doing tiny amounts of damage, dying when you die and then repeating. I didn't use Undertow on the boss (because I felt it wouldn't do much damage since as far as I can see it's merely a push and grab) so I don't know if it does damage (although, again, I doubt it would but admittedly I may be wrong). EDIT: And of course, focus on the boss. The zombies will just continually respawn and waste your resources.
Sorry for not being much help.
Do we have any clue what the DLC will be at this point? Or is it all completely in the dark?

Buy.
I can't believe you never go to
Lutece Labs. Elizabeth even points it out to you on your way to Comstock house. I was expecting it to be like 1912 x Portal in there.

every time you kill one of her minions she will resurrect, giving you time to shoot her. Return to sender will block her AOE attack.
