Was scrolling Facebook and found someone who 3D prints and paints. Requested if he could do subject delta & little sister. The print was small at first but he scaled it to size. Bio shock 2 has always been one of my favorite game. The little sister is tilted slightly more so you can see her better.

I don’t normally buy these things but I couldn’t resist!

Have you watched the new avatar series?

I havent but when I heard this song, I thought of Eleanor and Delta

I was walking around Fort Frolic when I heard an unfamiliar noise coming from a Little Sister near a dead Splicer. I didn't really pay it any mind and just thought “Oh, I guess they eat the bodies after they’ve been drained of Adam. Typical Rapture”. But it wasn't until this happened again and I happened to be closer that I realized Little Sisters nurse on their Adam needles for nourishment. I always assumed they deposited all the Adam they collected into those Gatherers Garden machines and that they didn't need to eat. But if they’re eating all the Adam they collect, then how is that Adam supposed to find its way back into circulation without the death of the Sister? (You can't harvest Little Sister’s Adam without them dying).

TLDR: Little Sisters actually drink the Adam they collect with their Adam needles. The collection chamber even looks like a baby bottle. But if they’re eating the Adam, then how does it make its way back to the market without killing the Little Sister?

I’m 31 years old and ive always been a fan of horror. Ive. played so many games that I would say are “scarier” and I can suspend my disbelief and have a great time.

For some weird reason every time i revisit bioshock 1 i get so freaked out i can only play it in short stretches. I would guess a combination of the environment, sound , and how quick and sudden all the combat feels always gets to me and makes my skin crawl.

Great game. I think it’s the only media that can get me to take my headphones off and look around the room because I get so creeped out by it.

Bioshock 1 is in my top 10 favorite games of all time and unfortunately I did not care much for BioShock 2. I kept hearing that infinite was bad and so I put off playing it since 2 left a bad taste in my mouth but I started playing infinite a few days ago.

I am having so much fun with this game. I just did a section where I was being attacked from all sides and I used Elizabeth to summon a motorized Patriot From Another Dimension to Gun Down enemies as I am zipping around on the rails and throwing murderous crows and devils kiss orbs as I am flying around only to then do a cinematic death strike from above on my enemies.

This game is awesome and I'm having a blast and I wish I would have played this years ago.

The only thing tangible they’ve accomplished was announcing and canceling the BioShock 1 remake in a single blog post. I miss Ken.

Hello, this is my first time doing a cosplay

PD: The sky-hook was 3D printed

This is hilarious for how fast it goes, this meme is from B4Brandoss BAS video. And is NOT mine

It came out to be absolutely amazing.

.....

I can't be the only one, right?

A fan-made VR port of BioShock is now available for Meta Quest 3 and 3S, running through Winlator XR.

The project is still a work in progress, so some bugs and performance issues may occur.

Meta Quest 2 is not officially supported. Original BioShock game files are required.

Hi, I was playing the remastered games and the first game crashed once, the second is crashing always, and when a brute splicer fights me it crashes even if it doesn't is near me, there is any way to fix this? I have windows 11, integrated graphics but the game works fine at 60fps, I have to use dxvk otherwise the game will look like a blurry mess, tried the .ini settings for vram and didn't worked, only dxvk worked.

lol 😂

Heeeeeeeelp

Where the gatherers garden is....

For context i’m an 03 baby. I’ve somehow managed to completely avoid the bioshock franchise and all lore even though i grew up an AVID gamer (most of my life was spent gaming 😭). I don’t know if terrified little me was too intimidated by the horror-esque atmosphere but here i am 19 years later, playing it for the first time ever.

I just finished 2 and am currently playing Minerva’s Den as we speak. I think not only did the story and lore make me emotional in both games, absolute crybaby over here, but i felt emotional knowing i’ve somehow never gotten to experience this masterpiece of a game until now, mixed emotions with that as i feel grateful to experience it for the first time as an adult, who can really take in the lore and appreciate the atmosphere and characters more.

Anyway, i think im hyper fixated obsessed now 🫡

Found this at a secondhand shop for $6 don't know if it is worth anything just thought it would be neat by my bioshock games on my shelf

The main argument of the original BioShock is not simply that Objectivism is bad. Yes, there are times when this is communicated, such as the presence and utilization of these hordes of brainwashed children running around with these faceless, mutilated abominations they so innocently call “Mr. Bubbles”, but that is not the primary concern of the story. What it is trying to say is that a society constructed according to the principles of Objectivism (or at least the version of Objectivism the game presents) cannot sustain itself in the long run.

Ignoring how the game communicates this message by having every wall leaking seawater, half the doors not even functioning, Sander Cohen exercising his right as a free artist to blow people up and plaster them into grotesque poses, Steinman crucifying women he works on that are deemed “too ugly”, stuffing useful resources and materials into trash bins, and so on, how does the game communicate this?

The first is the opening. You, Jack, are stranded in the middle of nowhere and are whisked away to this magnificent city under the sea, and on the way you hear a message from Andrew Ryan himself. He describes how the outside world is full of parasites: the government jackals in Washington forcing you to give up your hard-earned wealth so the bureaucrats can hand it over to the needy, the pigs in Moscow declaring that everyone must share, and the men in the Vatican forcing you to obey the laws of an invisible man in the sky. Ryan is here to present you with an alternative; behold, a city where artistic expression is not restricted by any censor, where scientific progress is not regulated by petty rules pertaining to right and wrong or should and shouldn’t, where a man keeps every cent he makes, a place where every man is entitled to the sweat of his brow. Pure, unregulated Capitalism.

And what is the first thing that happens when you enter the city? You see a woman high on super-drugs with comically large fish hooks skewering a man to death before trying to attack you, all before you exit the bathosphere. Ryan promises utopia, and we are immediately met with death, and at every step of the way thereafter, we see how more and more of this place fell into ruin.

The second is Ryan’s simultaneous, hypocritical obedience and disobedience to his own philosophy. He rejects God and everything pertaining to organized religion, and yet he has complete faith in the abstract concept of The Great Chain, the idea that true progress and prosperity happen only when every man works for himself, serving his own ego, which will then benefit the whole. Additionally, he is completely against the idea of government regulation of the free market, which is why he does not interfere with the destructive qualities of ADAM and Plasmids, nor does he work to rectify the unsustainable wealth inequality, believing that these are simple growing pains. In fact, if we dip into the official Rapture novel, Ryan specifically says that he is unconcerned about the addictive qualities of ADAM and Plasmids, because he believes that someone will simply come up with a better version, which will inevitably outsell the older model (not realizing that Fontaine is really the only one with access to the resources to make more ADAM, period).

But there is one small problem: he owns Rapture. The floorboards, the glass, the stone, everything ultimately came from him. Rapture is his sweat. Is he not entitled to defend HIS city from Fontaine? Is he not entitled to lock up people like Dr. Lamb who threaten to overturn the political system HE created? It was HIS men and HIS weapons and HIS command that took over Fontaine Futuristics, so why shouldn’t he be allowed to take over the company? He won it fair and square. He even goes so far as to use pheromones to control the splicers, believing this will help him in his civil war against Atlas and his goons. Make no mistake, you may be free in Rapture, but only under Ryan.

With or without the interference of Jack, Rapture was doomed from its very inception, and everything that caused this was entirely contained within this isolated city. Ryan wanted to create a utopia, and the inherent flaws of his system created its own destruction.

In BioShock Infinite, Comstock is running a pseudo-Christian cultish genocidal racist city in the clouds, with his main objective being to “burn the Sodom below” (i.e. commit genocide on 90% of humanity) and despite the fact that the Vox Populi revolution got all the way to his house, when we travel into the grim darkness of 1984, we see that not only did this violent revolution from the underclass mean absolutely nothing (despite them seizing all means of production for weapons and Vigors, and having access to a fleet of airships), but he wins, completely. Booker just disappeared into the ether, Elizabeth is captured and neutralized, the Vox Populi are completely stamped out, everything is back up and running, he brainwashed his adoptive daughter into becoming a zealous dictator, and Columbia is in the middle of blowing up New York City 70 years later.

So, what do we do? We travel back to 1912, free Elizabeth, kill Comstock, kill some Vox Populists, destroy the siphon in Elizabeth’s tower that was draining her interdimensional juices (even though that was in a different universe, and this one was supposedly draining from the Elizabeth from this universe, but whatever), we travel into an extra dimension comprised of an endless series of lighthouses representing the infinite multiverse, we get some exposition, and… I’m not entirely sure what happens.

What literally happened was that we entered one of the lighthouses and appeared in a sub-section of the Sea of Doors dimension modelled after the place where Booker almost got his baptism, then a bunch of Elizabeths from across the multiverse then appear and drown Booker, and the story concludes with all the Elizabeths disappearing, which I guess is supposed to mean that they stopped the baptism from ever happening (even though we never actually travelled back in time, and they didn’t drown Booker from 1890 because the camera remains from the first person perspective of the same Booker from 1912 that we have been playing the entire game).
And at the end of this, I guess we are meant to interpret that Comstock and Columbia now never existed, even though this would obviously create an egregious causal paradox that stretches across multiple universes and who knows how many decades, and because the multiverse is infinite, there are likely an infinite number of ways Booker could have become Comstock without necessarily having to be baptised at this specific location.

So it wasn’t the revolutionists (a problem created by his own philosophy) that defeated Comstock, but a version of himself from another universe, and a girl with the power to rip apart the fabric of time and space, going turbo on interdimensional juices to change the timeline.

Ryan failed to properly maintain his isolated utopia under the sea because of the inherent flaws of the system and his hypocritical obedience to his own philosophy, thus communicating that Objectivism does not function. Comstock wants to slaughter every man, woman, and child who are not white and do not follow his religious beliefs, and it is a complete success, a success which is undone by interdimensional time travel bullshit.

So, in other words, BioShock Infinite says that racism, genocide, and cultism work so long as you don’t fuck with the multiverse.

Also, why is the infinite multiverse that stretches across all time and space represented by a pair of lighthouses from 20th-century Earth? Also, Elizabeth had her finger severed by the Lutece Machine and now has the powers to do… whatever it is she does at the end, but Robert and Rosalind Lutece got blown up by the thing and now appear to be of the same power level, if not more, than super Elizabeth, so why do they need her to change the timeline? Also, if there are an infinite number of universes of infinite possibilities, how can there always be a man, a city, and a lighthouse? Wouldn’t there necessarily be a universe where humanity went extinct before the concept of a lighthouse or a city was invented? Also, why would the infinite multiverse give the slightest shit about anything that happens on Earth such that it would model itself after a structure created by bipedal mammals that have only existed for a fragment of the planet’s history?

What I mean by that is how BioShock 1 & 2 very much had the same setting, feel, and vibe, then Infinite brought in a complete scene change.

Poor splicer

(Heavy Spoilers for Atomic Heart)
For those who have never played Atomic Heart, the guy on the left is Dmitry Sechonov, a Soviet scientist with the ultimate goal of , launching a network called Kollektiv (It’s sort of similar to Ryan’s mind control gas but really complicated and multi-faceted), and then advancing mankind to colonize space without their free will while humanity will live happily in Limbo with their memories intact.

TLDR: The guy on the left is basically Ryan’s polar opposite.
