re: #43 The Ghost of a Flea

Having just replayed Infinite…it’s a very pretty package but the gameplay is weak. Pretty, nice setting design, okay plot.

So I really can’t fight too hard with you.

In fact, having played Infinite, I have to retract my side of an earlier argument I had with you about the same game: the second half with the Vox as the villains was uncomfortable and poorly handled. My speculation about why the chose that juxtaposition were just totally off.

So…at this point, you’re actually at a net loss for conflict.

Wow yeah, I mean I played Bioshock 2 on normal, I played it on hard, I’ve replayed it on hard, until eventually I actually managed to beat it beat it as hard as anyone could possibly beat it, playing ONE game and NEVER GOING TO ZERO HEALTH from start to finish on hard.

I’ve only brought myself to replay Infinite 3/4ths of the way through on hard once.

Bioshock 2’s plot is not anything truly grand, but it’s a good effective shooter and the fights don’t feel stretched out the way that Infinite’s do due to the fact that you start needing like three carbine headshots to kill your standard mook instead of one rivet gun.

What most stood out to you about being awkward/off about the VOX stuff?
