Bioshock Infinite, story is pretty deep.

Some people have started to notice that there are other games around!

Girl I work with heard me talking about Bioshock yesterday at the office and heard me mention that I'd never played Bioshock 2.

She walks in today and puts it on my desk telling me that her husband was letting me borrow it (I didn't ask for it) because they both wanted me to play it knowing that I had played 1 and 3.

Pretty awesome that I don't have to buy it since I can just play it!

Me as I read the post. That's pretty cool though. Bio 2 out of nowhere. I didn't make it through Bio1 because I was in a rush and I didn't like how they wanted me to collect stuff to move on with the story. I also felt somewhat obligated to take those pictures (OCD?).

Back on topic, I feel that a gamer girl would be kinda weird for me. What if she games more than I do, or is very nerdy. I feel I wouldn't be able to keep up. I don't know if you guys know, but I suck at games. In Bioshock Infinite Elisabeth carried me, throwing me health, spawning health, raising me. If she wasn't around I struggled a ton. I sucked at ffxi, I just hid behind thf while you guys did all the work. RDM was easy, just refresh people, and cure. There's a reason I didn't level drk sub, because stun order stuff looked complicated to me.

(Eudon) He's about to do dangerous move #29, stun!!!
...
(Eudon) What the #)($@n happened?
(Amylea) Ploid didn't stun...
(Ploid) Oh crap I didn't see, my bad. I was refreshing and curing.
(Mirabella) That's all?
(Ploid) I play on PS2 with a controller. I can only do so much.
(Vedder) I play on a PS2 and a controller, and I dual box amylea which nukes, stuns, and more.
(Palerider) He's black.

First time I played Plois on RDM I came to Fafnir in main tank pt and was all sorts of amazing for my first time ever.

Also that sounds eerily similar to every fight I remember with you guys.

There's no feeling like converting during faf/hogg fight knowing you got dis under control, and that Mira will cure V you because she's wired to keep people alive.

I just finished this game. I loved the ending, god damn.

This game needed to be at least 10 hours longer. It felt like the game could be milked a lot more, and it's kinda sad that it wasn't.

The age of DLC, where game companies hold back to add the rest as DLC. This game seem almost made for DLC, you will play alternate versions of Booker as DLC. Booker the savior of Vox seem to be the candidate for the first obvious dlc.

I have no problem investing further money in this game.

I will gladly fork out money for the DLC for this game.

I'm also afraid to replay the game because I have this nagging feeling in the back of my head that the story won't hold up as well if I were to go through it again.

It should get better actually. You'll notice little things that you missed because you didn't know what you know now. I didn't replay the game but instead watched someone else play after I beat it.

Just beat Bioshock 2; this quickly became one of my favorite video game franchises.

Running through Infinite again when I stumbled onto these guys covering the Beach Boys (40 years before they were the Beach Boys)

Has anyone picked up the DLC for this yet? I never got the season pass.

I can't wait to pick this up. Honestly the first Bioshock is my favorite in the series. A lot of that came from abilities, but the environment itself made things a bit scarier.

I wonder how Elizabeth is going to be acting underwater.
