Enjoy, I wish I can play that for the first time.

Protip: You'll find enough ADAM to help you beat the game anyway so spare all the Little Sisters you find.

one of the few first-person games that I really enjoy.

if you ever get the chance, you should also pick up Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

The best one in the series. Andrew Ryan and Atlas are both pretty charming, affable guys which is why it's all the more bitter when one ends up dead by your hand and the other was lying to you the entire time.

I still remember being upset at the big twist. I really, really liked Atlas.

It's funny. The game is fantastic. There's a lot of good stuff in there and the story is very entertaining. I give it at least a 9.5 out of 10. Now the funny thing is that even though it's really great, I haven't gone back to play it much. Once you learn everything and how the bad guys work a third and fourth replay really loses steam. At least for me.

TC just enjoy the game and feel free to explore everything because once you beat it you may never go back to it again.

Also, I would suggest System Shock 2 but you're not a big fan of this game which is essentially System Shock 2 but under the sea.

Mine is definitely the Telekinesis plasmid, now. In previous playthroughs, I never saw the point. But I love it, now. It's super versatile. Run out of bullets during a fight? Pull something out of the environment and launch it at their face. Need to grab something that's too high up? Telekinesis. Some dude launches a grenade? Grab it out of the air and either throw it away or back at him!

It's a great plasmid.

I'm replaying it right now and I've also discovered a new love for telekinesis. It's incredibly strong for an early game plasmid. For some reason corpses are one hit kills against most things even on Hard. It also uses little EVE.

But also, Target Dummy. While I see telekinesis mentioned often, Target Dummy is the real underrated plasmid lol. Free headshots, danger-free action research photographs, distracts turrets and camera without setting off alarms. Can let you wait out alarms risk free if you don't wanna spend on bot shutdown switches. Works well with almost any other plasmid. Idk how I never used it before.

I waited a long ass time to play Bioshock 2 after 1 and I thought it was better by a solid step. Infinite was fun too but was clearly fucked around with too many times for a coherent game like the first 2. Shame

I only had Nintendo systems up until 2016, and I only seriously got into game collecting about a year ago. Bioshock obviously isn't in my comfort zone.

It's not flawless but story wise it's really good. Especially the first. One of the things I liked most is the atmosphere and if your not really being drawn in after giving it a few hours it may not be for you.

Love the game. It only gets better as you progress and the plot/writing/dialogue/voice work is excellent. Just try to immerse yourself and explore and treat it as an adventure. You just had a plane crash into the ocean and are discovering a civilization you know nothing about. Give yourself to the experience. If you can't really get immersed then I can see why it may be falling flat for you. Good luck with whatever you do
