    One of the best games I've ever played, great music, great characters and a SENSATIONAL story. just loved every moment with Elizabeth, the plot along the beautiful art style, the amazing criticism over religion, racism, xenophobia... It´s just something else.

    i played infinite before playing the other 2 BioShock games, and i will say, completing this makes me want to give them another try. Columbia is a beautiful setting filled with personality, the story confused the hell out of me but the characters were more than charming enough to keep me wanting more, and the end was immensely satisfying (no spoilers. the gameplay format is the only slighti played infinite before playing the other 2 BioShock games, and i will say, completing this makes me want to give them another try.

    Great game but the plot is kinda overrated. When you start with the multiple realities stuff it's usually.. well for me atleast it speaks of lazy writing. I still enjoyed it, not as much as I did enjoy playing the first two.. even Bio 2 had better atmosphere in my opinion. And atmosphere is the biggesy thing that keeps me hooked.

    Play this game it's a must!

    While it's not as genre-changing as the original Bioshock, this game still delivers a unique narrative on a unique setting that I'm happy it's part of the franchise. The gameplay is fresh enough and the new powers are really fun to use. It's insane how what seems to be an escort mission isn't as tedious as they usually are. Play it.

    A genuinely great, and oddly influential, shooter. My biggest gripe is more how this is basically a solid sci-fi shooter instead of an immersive sim. Still very great and well-done, might have been crushed due to the weight of ambition during development. Absolutely worth playing however!

You walk around in a city where the ghost of that time is perfectly shown. It plays in an alternate time line and has the same system, like various guns paired with supernatural powers which you can swap out on the fly. You also find different types of clothing that grants bonuses, like a bigger mag or faster move speed. Various automated vendors sell upgrades for the many weapons and abilities you pay with the money you collect, or you buy ammo or restore your health.
    The story is mysterious and the end is a real surprise.
    The difficulty is not high, even on higher settings and your companion takes on a supportive role by delivering ammo and health if needed. If you want a challenge play the 1999 version that unlocks after one playthrough. It is also a good idea to explore the place because of riddles and goodies to find.

The combat is similar to all the other Bioshock titles, but the new cast of enemies has done a lot to shake up the formula in my eyes.
    In many ways, I preferred this game to the originals, but can also see how it did not live up the expectations of fans upon its initial release, I hold no real loyalty to the Bioshock series as I didn't play it when it initially released, so all I can say is from an outsider's perspective this is as refined and perfected that Bioshock can get. Definitely worth your time.

    This game is a flawed masterpiece that I love as much as I am disappointed by it. The world and main characters are all excellent. The story is also extremely intriguing and very well constructed. However there are noticeable downgrades from the previous games. Some characters are also misused and not developed enough.

    A city in the sky doesn't sound appealing until it's actually seen in person. Putting the racism aside, the city of Columbia is beautiful! The sky train trollies and the children playing out in the open with barbershop quartet around the corner. It's something you have to see for yourself. What I hated.

    What I hated. The story is linear and choices don't make a difference but I believe that's the point the story is making. Everything comes full circle but what a horrible beautiful circle it is.

    What I loved. The music is almost tailor made for Columbia. Elizabeth is a wonderful companion on your adventure through sheer wonder! I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that this game has culture and it all seems so believable that I wonder if maybe this is really a city in the sky.

    This is a must own. If not, just visit once and fall in love with the city of Columbia! If you aren't afraid of heights that is. 9 out of 10

    Сюжет тяжело воспринимать людям, которые не знакомы с первыми частями серии, но даже будучи подготовленным человеком, прошерстившим множество видео с объяснениями и разборами, можно прийти к выводу, что все сложно: множество несостыковок, дыры, открытая концовка, события, которые можно интерпретировать по-разному.
    Но это не отменяет того, что сюжет действительно интересный.
    Сеттинг представляет из себя смесь стимпанка и теслапанка, город в небе выглядит необычно и сказочно.
    Еще в игре одна из самых обаятельных напарниц и хорошая русская локализация.

The story is dark and bloody and often unnerving, and creates this beautiful sense of danger and comfort. The game's pace is incredible, going from a bright and beautiful Columbia into a darker, more uneasy journey.
    Elizabeth is a magnificent character, and to this day is my favourite female protagonist. She is curious and kind, and damn scary when the world around her needs her to be. Watching her go from being the girl in the tower to the girl covered in blood, opening tears, changing timelines and the world around her is an astonishing journey. There's something serene and scary about this game. It's heart-wrenching and beautiful.

При этом сюжет и атмосфера - шикарные. Люди сделали шикарный мир и написали шикарную историю, но всё убивает гемплей в стиле "лутер-шутер", где 90% ты стреляешь и лутаешь. Стреляешь и лутаешь. Стреляешь и лутаешь. Если на низком уровне ещё можно не облутывать каждый труп чтобы найти патроны, чуть-чуть хп и солей; то на высоком уровне - лутай и улучшай либо умирай. Скилл же ничего не решает.
    Не хватило загадок (их нет вообще), платформинга (именно платформинга, а не аэротрассы - симулятор нажатия на пробел), может быть, даже стелса и чего-нибудь ещё, что бы сделало гемплей разнообразнее и интереснее.
    Но ради сюжета и атмосферы я её всё же еще пройду и не один раз скорее всего.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It isn't bad, but it is

    To elaborate on the heading, I don't think it's a bad game in and of itself, but I do think it was a mistake for the franchise.

    Infinite is certainly different from the first two titles and arguably worse in most areas.
    From the convoluted story, to the ridiculous flying city, and just the lack of cohesion with the previous titles.

    Setting/Universe
    Looking back to earlier games, Rapture was at least realistic enough for a lot of players to buy into.
    An underwater city built in the late 1940s to early 1950s isn't too far science-fiction for people to believe.
    In Infinite however, we are expected to believe that somehow in the year 1893, 50+ years before Rapture, a flying city can be built... Seriously?
    Don't bother trying to sell me with that bullsh*t.
    The first two games laid out the foundation as to how realistic the universe was and Infinite pulled a classic prequel f*ck up and cheapened it beyond measure.

    Story
    Part 1.)
    I personally really, really despise the inclusion of in almost any medium, and I find it absolutely disgusting when it's introduced in an already established franchise(with a couple exceptions).
    This is primarily where my hatred of the story comes in; I just don't like these types of narratives. I suppose my simple monkey brain just doesn't like having to work this hard to figure out what I just watched.
    I'm going to avoid going into any amount of detail, but those who know the twist know exactly what I'm talking about.
    Part 2.)
    The second issue I have with the story is the inclusion of .
    Why was this added? Who asked for Bioshock to include it? As much as the previous complaint felt unwelcome in Bioshock, this one takes the sh*t cake.
    I get that the whole idea of Columbia is for the succession from the United States, sounds an awful lot like Bioshock 1 & 2's Rapture... wonder where they got the idea, but even then I don't see why they went this route. It seems like they brought aboard a young ambitious amateur writer to lead the entire narrative of Infinite.
    And all of the propaganda/portrayals just left a bad taste in my mouth is all. Unnecessary.

    Characters
    Booker DeWitt is pretty cut and dry at first glance with some interesting glimpses into his past throughout.

    Zachary Hale Comstock is a pretty bog standard antagonist with corrupt morals that can't be reasoned with.

    Elizabeth is probably the only character I like with only a few moments that just had bad writing for the character.

    The Lutece Twins just bad. Absolutely the worst. Must've have taken a real genius to write these two.

    Conclusion
    Bioshock Infinite sits off in it's own little corner; I really don't know what to say.
    But to be fair to the game itself, I'm going to give it a score as if it wasn't linked to Bioshock, as if it were it's own game.

    I give Bioshock Infinite a
    7 out of 10

    Closing Thoughts
    I feel like even the devs knew how much Infinite strayed away from the previous games and felt forced to revisit Rapture in the Burial at Sea DLC to appease fans.
    Also, I can't help but notice how much Elizabeth was loved by the community.
    I have a strong inclination that her character alone is what has made Bioshock Infinite as popular as it is.
    Bunch of dirty perverts. Yeah, I've seen those rule34 images.

    Яркая, красочная и динамичная. Конечно, порой хотелось, чтобы Элизабет больше участвовала в поединках. Интересный, слегка витееватый сюжет. Возможно, не совсем придется по вкусу ценителям оригинальной серии, так как действия происходят в другом месте, в другое время; но, уверен, равнодушным геймером игра никого не оставит.Яркая, красочная и динамичная.

    This game is average at best, but all those praises sung to it make it one of the most overrated pieces of digital art ever. А pretentious plot, coupled with an incredibly raw gameplay and unmet expectations from trailers - the only things you will find here.

    Mesmo achando inferior ao primeiro Bioshock da franquia, Infinite consegue ser um dos melhores de sua categoria.

    Mesmo achando inferior ao primeiro Bioshock da franquia, Infinite consegue ser um dos melhores de sua categoria.

    A jogabilidade ficou mais divertida e prazerosa de se jogar, focando mais no lado da ação do que na parte sobrevivência e de puzzles - por sinal há a inexistência deles na obra. A arte continua belíssima e o conceito de Columbia assim como Rapture é incrível. A história apesar de ser mais "viajada" e grandiosa se comparado aos últimos lançados da franquia, permanece com o mesmo nível de qualidade, criando personagens tão bom quanto os outros. Inclusive, as DLCs 'Burial at Sea' são um excelente complemento em termos de narrativa; eu até diria que são obrigatória para ter um fim digno à franquia.

    Meu único ponto negativo à comentar é a falta de exploração nos conflitos de Columbia. No primeiro, Rapture fazia parte da história; nesse, a cidade é apenas usada como um "caminho" para os personagens desenvolverem a trama. Esse efeito afeta o vilão principal, que a única coisa que o torna um personagem memorável é o plot twist que o cerca - diferente de Andrew Ryan que com dois minutos de cena conseguiu ser um dos melhores personagens dos videogames.

    Contudo, vale e muito a pena jogar esse jogo e suas DLCs até hoje. Exemplo de como se faz um verdadeiro FPS de campanha.

The level design is just bland and boring, the game is so linear and the interesting maps from the previous two games are just gone, vigors are pretty useless too. Guns got simpler and the overall games feels shorter.Bioshock Infinite is a game that i both love and hate.

    This game is very shallow.

    I didn't find the gunplay to be anything special, and I feel like vigors just don't belong here. Weapon upgrades are also very bad. Applying this system with the two weapon system isn't a good idea. And the upgrades are useless. And the guns all feel the same. And multiple ammo types have been removed. And why are there RPG's in 1912? Also, I really don't like

Applying this system with the two weapon system isn't a good idea. And the upgrades are useless. And the guns all feel the same. And multiple ammo types have been removed. And why are there RPG's in 1912? Also, I really don't like Elizabeth. And the game is relying on her to hold itself up. That's a problem. I've been NPC blocked more times than I can count. This happened a little in the first Bioshock, but it's ridiculous here. I literally got stuck in a doorway for over 5 minutes. Speaking of Elizabeth being annoying, she talks over the audio diaries. Why? The autosave is a really bad idea. I don't like relying on it to get me through the game. I had a situation where I couldn't get the auto save to work and there's no manual save, meaning that every time I turned the game on I had to start all over again from the beginning, regardless of my progress. The vigors absolutely suck in this game. First off, why are they even here? How did these people discover Adam? Was it found inside a flying pig? And why did Columbia develop vigors anyway? Rapture was all about the development of science at the expense of morality. Why the hell would a hyper religious society of Christians be playing god like this? And they don't even make any practical sense. Combat plasmids made sense in Rapture because there was a civil war. Why are vigors being developed for combat? And why don't the military use it? Outside of one or two with either the fire or crow vigor that rarely show up? Vigors are so illogical and stupid in this society.
    In gameplay, I really don't like these. They cut the max vigors down to 8. That isn’t a problem, and the fact I can hold all 8 at once instead of 5 makes sense for the faster paced style of this game. And being able to use vigors and guns at the same time is a good improvement (one that Bioshock 2 already made)
    Unfortunately, the vigors suck. They either function exactly the same or they're so useless you'd never use them. I find it amazing that Bioshock 2 gets so much hatred, even from people like the Completionist, for not adding new plasmids, but this game gets rewarded for reducing the plasmids and diluting the remaining ones till they're unrecognizable.
    I found the possession vigor to have a lot of bad ideas. Enemies are supposed to commit suicide once the vigor stops, but many enemies commit suicide with a rocket launcher and the blast radius can also hurt the player. That's bad game design. And it happens a lot. I also noticed that if an enemy, like a gun turret, doesn't kill itself, then you have to wait for the possession to wear off before you can shoot it. How did this not come up in play testing? I discovered it at the beginning of my first playthrough. I cannot believe this made it into the game.
    Also, the bullet sponge ghost bosses are insufferable to deal with.
    The story is really not good either. The first act of the game is literally just a single event (finding Elizabeth) being recycled 3 separate times and ironically, for as much hate as Ken Levine seems to have for Bioshock 2 (even though he didn't bother to help the relatively much smaller dev team that made Bioshock even once throughout the relatively tiny development time it had) this game copies a lot from that one. Even down to Elizabeth basically just being Eleanor but less good.
    Why are black people even living in Columbia? It's not exactly easy to get onto a flying city and they obviously weren't natives there.
    And why don't the black people actually use vigors? It's not like they're hard to find

    And the manipulative attempts to spotlight choices to the player, only to lie and have them mean nothing is so dishonest and insulting.
    Also, Booker is an idiot.
    So much of the dialogue reads like a bad fanfiction you'd find on Wattpad.
    The ending is also just stupid. Just banging pots and pans together. What a lazy copout.
    By the time the Comstock death scene happened, I was so thoroughly done that I started listening to podcasts and stuff in the background. God, that monologue just went on and on and on. I hate games with several hours of unskippable cutscenes.
    And Elizabeth's powers are extremely nebulous, poorly explained, and just dumb
    They hyped up the songbird boss only to pull a lazy copout and throw it away in favor of that stupid blimp horde mode.
    Honestly, this game shouldn't be a Bioshock game. And many of the mechanics that we dragged in from other Bioshock games and crudely stapled onto this one hurt it the most. Especially the plot. And yeah, this story doesn't belong in Bioshock. Although, even on it's own terms, this story is dumb and the dimension jumping is really dumb.
