And we're done here.
The only game I can see having a shot at beating it is Last of Us

Come to think it, maybe I would rate it lower.
I've died twice, and I'm right near the end now.
I do like doing it without using the dollar bill machines I must say, makes the game slightly more tactical.

Damn is this your first time through or second?
I died a ton of times on 1999 but it was my first time through the game period. In general it was often times better to reload a checkpoint than use the continue as some of the respawn points are absolutely useless and plop you right down next to an angry patriot.
SR4, MGSV(assuming its this year) and BF4 mp are the onyl games that might surpass this for me. I already know Ill love the Last of Us, but I know it wont be my GOTY just by the combat looking way too similar to Uncharted

Second.
On hard I died 3-4 times, and that was to the handyman.
The patriots were surprisingly (to my relief) easy to deal with.

The combat is really getting great. There's stuff I discover afterwards for some encounters that makes me very eager to play them on a second run. Really want to explore my options in these combat spaces. The tears, the vigors, the skylines, the weapons, Elizabeth...everything's coming together for the gameplay.

I do worry that games are going to end up like anime localisation, with the same small pool of voice talent. I also thought Booker was played by Nolan North initially.
Undertow is best straight stun with chest exposure. Crows work. With the right gear you can finish a Charge with temp invuln. Use skylines to bait him into skyline denial attacks then counter attack. Look for decoy tears. Devils kiss and tis traps do good direct damage.

I thought that was a bit unfair since there's nothing really similar earlier in the game. You have to
use Devil's Kiss on the two torches on either side of the gate at which point the torches light and the gate opens
No way lol...I actually tried that and it didn't work lol. I was thinking that it would have been a nice nod to Zelda haha. I guess I'll retry now. Thanks!

I'm on the mission where
you have to go to Shantytown to retrieve the tools. They're in barrels that Elizabeth can open with tears. They're scattered around the environment in certain areas.
Does it track how many kills you've gotten with certain guns? I see that notifications pop up when you reach certain numbers, but is there a menu I can just check or something?
So, I think I'm pretty far into the game, but I need to know whether or not I should go exploring right now. I'm about to enter
but there's also the
that I can go to. Should I go exploring, or will the game guide me in that direction anyway? Also, how far in am I?

gardens and that other market area

listen to the mad man
Go where the game tells you at this juncture, you won't miss anything .
You have 2-2.5 hours left
Awesome. Thank you!

I know people got those chain wrist tattoos inspired by BioShock. I wonder how long before we see someone put a scar of the AD on the back of their hand.

I doubt it'll actually be AD because of the implications, unless they themselves have a child with the initials "AD".

I got mine a day or two before the game launched. I would shoot them an email.

I was half joking. The depths some 'fans' will go, however...
Not nearly as iconic as the chain link tattoo.
I just finished it. The last third of the game was pretty much perfect. I was expecting the ending to be disappointing or at least not live up to all the hype I've been reading about for it. I was wrong. One of the best endings in a very long time. I need some more time to reflect on it, off to the spoiler thread!
Thank you Ken Levine!
Thank you Ken Levine!
meh. I'm adding an R and scratchin' RAD onto the back of my hand.
You're OK.
In terms of story you'll be fine. I'd finish the first just because it's great though.

For the achievements that are like 'get x number of kills with y or z weapon' do the number of kills you get with y and z weapons add up, or do you have to stick to just one?

That turns out to be one of the more resonate decisions you make in the game. Stay tuned.
you'll see
I never saw
oh, time for a replay
Tell me the results I just want the one that gives me the most benefit (don't assuage me with that emotional crap either).
I need every advantage I can get in 1999 mode.
I didn't, so I must have missed it
What changes? I didn't so I'm curious.

Any game where you can summon a murder of crows to rip apart your enemies is great in my book. I just never get tired of it.
he ends up being lobotimized in a cell. i shot him for the heck of it and Elizabeth actually remarked that it was better for him. Very nice touch.
In the "jail" area in the Fink area, he'll be in a cell you can open if you didn't kill him.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
Just started it - this game has already proven that you don't need frequent combat mechanics to have fun. Exploring, analyzing, and watching the city is all I have done so far. I stayed and listened to a quartet sing, "God only knows."
