BioShock® 2

BioShock 2 review work in progress.

As an addition to my review also left on the BioShock Remastered page. I now will leave one for BioShock 2. I am typing this mere moments away from finishing Minerva's Den. I for the most part enjoyed this game as a whole, but Minerva's Den was the standout. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the story much more than the standard campaign. I will probably change my tune if I play the remastered version. I hope that version fixed alot of the crashing problems that plagued this version. But that was the huge turnoff for me with this version, as well as some really freaky audio problems that I had. I am unsure what the problem is, but the audio has this very strange effect almost like the game is processing audio for surround sound but the speakers aren't there, even though it was set to Stereo the whole time. As such it was much harder for me to hear simple things such as enemies behind me or even next to me without turning to hear them. Any sound effects had this problem, from cameras to enemies even NPC audio just acted bizzare and really detracted from my experience. I was mixed on the revisions they made to the plasmid and heath systems. I liked that a eve and heath pack no matter what filled their respective bar fully compared to the original. But to be fair I didn't hate that design in the first game. Then to change the "expert" perks to add another slot to your inventory felt really boring. Better off to have left those 2 perks out completely, then make another hidden pickup to increase the holding capacity. Plasmids now are bundled into 2 different categories, compared to the original's 4. But in order to accomplish this, the price for adding more slots increases the more you buy, it caught me off guard once I noticed the price jump. It almost felt like ideas were running thin on how to add or change plasmids between the 2 games. Some of them I really felt like they should have been removed or re-worked to fit the environment better. Namely the bug one, no bees anywhere in this story so context is strange if you haven't played the first one to figure out what it is. There is a ton more little details that put me off compared to the original. But for now i'll just end with this. I still need to play the remastered version and Infinite to get a proper comparison between all the games. But my rating lineup is as follows. Bioshock 1, Minerva's Den, Bioshock 2. Still a good game, but not as good as the first one. When the time comes I still need to figure out if the achievements for the online mode are still possible to get. Yikes. Rating with the DLC 7/10.

я цюцюрковы злодий и мне нравится

FIRST the only issue of the game is that it carshes every 40 minutes so to solve the issue go to bioshock 2 properties in steam there will be advance option launch just write -dx9 it will not crash but for surity save every 30minutes. The game is a masterpiece story is emotional enviroment is top notch audio logs are also emotional and the best gameplay in this series and for the dlc man the dlc is better than the main game . the dlc really outshines the gameplay better guns better story better and deep fake voice ai voice in 2011 very futurestic game man this game really is very good 10/10 game 100/10 for DLC.

Beat it on xbox years ago and it still holds up all these years later

8/10 naprawdę dobry sequel bioshocka ale gra ma straszne problemy techniczne z directx i często potrafi wywalać grę do pulpitu, i wystarczył by jeden update żeby to naprawić ale 2k to zwykłe cwele
