Depends on what you call "consensus". Game reviewers absolutely loved it to a man, and even the ones who brought up some of its flaws gave it sky-high ratings. It was tailor-made for them, and they knew it. In terms of players, it divided opinions with its technical problems, failure to deliver on promises, and general lack of depth and things to be enthusiastic about.I've played a lot years ago and was surprised how hated it became years later, back then it was consensus with everyone that it was a step foward after Bioshock 2 was regarded as a disappointment.
That's because the game's highest point is the first quarter, it all goes downhill from there.
Yeah its kind of amazing it even came around to the finished product at all considering the development. The parallel bit actually soured me on the franchise so bad since its soooo open ended anything can be made up and thus ruins any real decisions or emotional impact to be had. It was so bad everytime I replay the series I get to the DLC and stop right in the beginning. I've seen more DLC Elizabeth in vidya pr0ns than the actual game lol. But I swear I'll get to them all again, in fact they're sitting on my Series X waiting for me to start over(played through them all since launch and the updated collection on PS4).mediocre all around,
known fact that it went through a development hell and then some.
all the cool concepts they advertised the game with reduced to their most basic feasible fallbacks.
a stupid story and an ending twist trying so hard to be clever and one up bioshock but instead becomes a complete joke (parallel universe oh my)
it had some good world building at least
What GPU and CPU did that build have, if you remember? Curious what you had around at the end of 360 that could last throughout PS4-genThis game released in a time period that the Xbox360 was falling way behind in tech capabilities. I remember seeing how poorly it ran and build a new PC. That PC took me all the way through the sad offerings of the Xbox One and PS4.
i7 3770 with a GTX 660 I upgraded to an GTX1080 ti. It wasn't till the Xbone X came out that I moved back to consoles.What GPU and CPU did that build have, if you remember? Curious what you had around at the end of 360 that could last throughout PS4-gen
thank you. never as good as the first 2, but good enough till up to that final stretch...Liked the game very much but sadly it kinda falls apart in the final hours when the exploration takes a backseat. Too much shooting.
Looks like it. It isn’t cheap though.Is there a physical edition of BioShock Infinite for the Nintendo Switch? I really like to play it but I can't download a large file.
Uhuh. "Cosplay"I liked it, but never finished it. Made it to Elizabeth and that was about it.
Good cosplay came from the game.
While Infinite is dissapointing as they changed the genre and streamlined everything beyond recognition, Bioshock 2 is considered by some as a step-up from 1, with hugely better combat and a continuation/ending of Rapture.I find the sudden change in narrative on this game amusing. The criticisms the game got back in the day are reasonable. Bioshock 2 and Infinite are both hugely disappointing. Especially when you go look at the early footage of the game which looks way better than what we got in the final product.
I'm not sure that's the best comparison. Bloodborne seems to be generally regarded as the most refined Souls gameplay, second only to Sekiro which barely follows the Souls template.Infinite reminds me of Bloodborne in the sense that people are more in love with the worldbuilding and characters than the actual video game aspects. You know, the important things like gameplay, amount of content, story, game mechanics, etc.
