Grim time for anyone hoping for a bioshock revival

>>717030978 (OP)
I'm fine with this series ending on 2

>>717031109
I also think 2 was very good. Would’ve liked actual underwater combat in a potential 3 though

>>717030978 (OP)
define "horible narrative problems" because that hasn't been a concern for the last 15 years

>>717030978 (OP)
It's not like Judas will come out anyway lmao

The first bioshock was fine as a console shooter
second was fine as a goofy follow-up with extra action
neither were amazing but they can stand by themselves
infinite took itself too seriously and was beyond retarded

>>717030978 (OP)
Good, would have been woke and zero talent slop anyway, welp back to the kitchen I guess Melissa

>>717031664
What is UX?

>>717031310
The jew interviewing Levine was flabbergasted by Levine explaining to him how Bioshock 1 was an analogy for jewish victimhood and the obligation for goyim to save them.
>the main cast are all jews who brought it upon themselves (this was only apparent in Levine's personal notes)
>they created the player to save them
The political nuance (or subtle subversion) was a fluke that Levine was sure to correct in Infinite.

>>717031775
User experience. It's a meme field filled with trannies and gays.

>>717030978 (OP)
>horrible narrative problems
Considering publishers never gave two fucks about writing quality its safe to guess they didnt like it because it wasnt woke enough

>>717030978 (OP)
We already got a new bioshock, it's called Prey. Hopefully Prey 2 owns.

>>717031857
What about Bioshock 4 though? Was it too anti-White or not anti-White enough? Either way I'm glad it's fucking dead.

>>717030978 (OP)
Good. The story would have been shit.

>>717032013
i thought trump killed woke?

>>717031857
I liked that you had to murder people for a jewish pedo to beat the game. I also liked how the white man main character in infinite has to an hero for the betterment of humanity. Druckmann should take some notes from levine on how to be subversive.

>>717030978 (OP)
I legitimately have zero expectations of quality from Western games so I couldn’t care less.

>>717032182
Woke is striking back and Trump has been neutered by his jewish handlers

>>717032182
Only federally and only enough for boomers to be pleased, everything else is still accelerating to the promised utopia.

>>717030978 (OP)
good. let it die. 1 and 2 are masterpieces and their magic can't be recreated

>>717031775
UI wasn't a cool enough term so they pulled a latinx on game companies.

>>717032276

Did you like the part where you’re always having cute daughters? From Little Sisters to Elizabeth to Big Sister, the protagonist can’t have a son to save his life!

We don't need trump or big companies to sweep you faggots away anyway.

>>717030978 (OP)
Who would want a revival today? The posted quote itself says everything you need to know about why it would never be ok

>>717032182
We’ll know if Woke is dead by next year’s announcement events, games that release next year have been in the pipe since 2023.

>>717032464
the dilemma of choosing to save or harvest the kids wouldn't work with boys since people wouldn't hesitate to kill them

>creative director Hogarth de la Plante moved to a publishing role
damn this is really worrying, considering his impact on both BioShock 1 & 2

>>717032594
Levine's framing, naturally.

>>717032642
If Infinite came out today it would get fucking destroyed for it's blatant anti-Whiteness.
It should have flopped then and taken the whole franchise with it.
We shouldn't even be talking about what Bioshoah 4 might have been.

>>717032886
It's absolutely disgusting framing and should not be tolerated by gamers again.

>>717030978 (OP)
All I wanted was like a 7/10 Bioshock with the gameplay of 2 but updated with improved mechanics. but apparently even that is too much to ask for these days. Can't wait until Judas gets delayed for half a decade only to end up being another shitshow like Infinite.

>>717030978 (OP)
Not cancelled but in development hell.

>>717030978 (OP)
It's for the better.

Sucks to hear but it's hardly surprising.
>The fourth BioShock has been in development for more than a decade and has shifted between multiple studios. Cloud Chamber since 2019.
I'm curious as to why it took so long for 2K to intervene, it's Take-Two we're talking about here. Their answer is pure corpospeak but still they are confident they can turn the current game into something great. I guess we can only wait and see.

>>717032874
Oh god. That’s not good

>>717030978 (OP)
>total remake
As opposed to remaking half the levels?

>>717030978 (OP)
>4 cancelled for hyperwoke falling out of fashion
>1 for reminding people that at some point humans genuinely had the right idea before the corruption
Grim.

Why don't new games make me feel the way I felt playing the Bioshock 1 demo?

Bioshock 4 would've been used as an analogy for Israel. It would have taken place in a remote desert city, with Jews being the colonizers.

>>717034914
Isn't Ken Levine a zionist?

>>717032464
In defense of Levine here male lives have zero value so no one would be attached to a son character.

>>717032530
It’s almost 20 years old. That means that the original target audience who was 20 when it came out is aged out of most games from a marketing perspective. This is the number 1 reason for so many remakes and remasters now. They’re selling things again to a new audience so if you were playing games in the 00s and you’re still here you get to watch a bunch of repeats.

>>717035208
That is just not true at all and extremely jewish thinking.

Must have been an extremely on the nose gaza narrative or something

>Infinite gets glazed up and down by retarded journos
>the only lasting legacy is boatloads of Elizabeth porn, and even that seem to have petered out
>series is poisoned with retarded multiverse
Could have prospered on cruise control like Far Cry, fun mechanics and progression, charismatic villain, cool setting.
I don't know which one to dread more, Bioshock 4 because of it's baggage, or Judas because of Ken Levine.

Good fucking riddance.

>>717037427
What fact did I deny? It is your opinion that male lives have no value and is an extremely jewish take.

>>717031109
I agree, Infinite was a letdown compared to what was promised. The trailers showed a lot of gameplay that never made it into the final game.
Story was also not fleshed out well enough.
In comparison, Bioshock 2's ending made me cry bitch tears.

>>717031664
>would have been woke
It's like you didn't play any Bioshock ever.
Then again, my guess is all your ilk does is shitpost on /v/ without ever playing any games.

>>717030978 (OP)
Good news, thank you. Maybe they will make something original instead?

>>717031664
>>717032656
>>717034490
Dumbfucks, it's very much this >>717032013

Woke is already a norm. You will never have a game that doesn't include a nigher or woman somewhere somehow. It just matter to what degree.

>>717032501
>one ad means woke is le dead!
And that's why conservatives always lose in the end, you guys are too fucking stupid to finish a fight and way too easily pleased

bioshock 3 was so bad it killed bioshock.
also he called it Infinite instead of 3 because he was still seething over bioshock 2 being made without his input.
bioshock 1 didn't really need a remake. i assume the only thing it would've done would be built off Raytracing. When the original game's lighting was very cinematically directed, and the remaster fucked up, but RTX wouldn't improve that situation since RTX is soulless & devoid of artistry.

>>717037494
NTA but it's always been the men who were sent to war.

>>717030978 (OP)
There are already 5 games. I don't need more.

>Create studio and tell them to make Perfect Dark
>They languish for 3 years, get another dev team to help out for another 3. Still have nothing to show for it so it gets cancelled

>Create studio in 2019 and tell them to make Bioshock 4
>They languish for 6 years with nothing to show for it

Why can't Westoids make games anymore?

>>717037695
Games having political themes doesn't mean they are woke, you dumbass tranny.

>>717031109
The SS remake was pretty good

>>717038480
No competent devs left in game industry because corpos killed all creative freedom for AA and AAA projects, most of the good programmers left for more profitable and stable jobs in big tech
Gaming is upheld solely by the unhinged enthusiasts who do what they want without catering to any group whatsoever

>>717032487
Elanor is definitely a better shodan than Elizabeth

>>717030978 (OP)
>Bioshock 4 rejected by publisher for horrible narrative problems
Since when do they have standards? All the games I played this year have horrible stories, atrocious story telling and dead beat story and plot beats.

>>717039267
It is a subtle joke.
It says
"Elanor's raw and sore, "
The the words "raw and sore" rhyme with "Or" at the end of Elanor. Indicating a suffix vased rhyme

>>717038480
Who the fuck even wants to work in AAAAA+ games nowadays? If they actually wanted to make a game, they would just get some friends and drop it on Steam, maybe try to get a publisher to get it on more platforms
As >>717039043 said there's nobody left, specially good workers. That's unironically the reason why you only see leftist lunatics working in these companies, they are the only ones accepting shitty pays and shitty working conditions and no ownership over anything since their sole purpose in life is spreading propaganda
And it seems even they are getting tired of it, as you keep hearing about entire teams getting fired after doing nothing for years like with Everwilds and Black Panther, so I wonder what the fuck are these companies going to do next

Stop desperately shilling your fanfic here you AI Pajeet.

>>717038038
We don't even need the ads and that isn't the only one. Corpos are reading the room though.

>horrible narrative problems
YOU PEOPLE PUT OUT INFINITE
WHAT'S THE FUCKING STANDARD

i never liked the gameplay of Bioshock. I thought the gunplay was shit and the world wasn't interesting enough to carry me through more than a few hours before dropping it.

one of those games I never understood the buzz around it.

>>717032501
The whole country is sick of anti woke and laughing at mocking the american eagle ad. Woke is back and more popular than ever after people realize how much better it is compared to antiwoke.

>>717040723
pretty much all presentation

>>717040696
2K publishes Borderlands as well. I don't think mere mortals could possibly imagine how bad the story is if a 2K executive looked at it and said "No, we won't publish that"

>>717038480
West cattle are simply incompetent
The only competent Devs are russian/ukrianian, Chinese , Japanese and Swedish

The rest of Gayrope and especially USmuttia can be thrown into the trash bin.

>>717030978 (OP)
I'll be honest with you, guys. Everybody keeps raving about how the story of BioShock is supposedly so amazing, but I didn't find it particularly emotionally moving or thought provoking. The whole twist was kinda dumb in my view. I still think it's a decent game. The aesthetics are cool. The gameplay is okay. The enemies get a bit too bullet spongy for my taste at the end of the game, but it might be because I wasn't optimizing my damage output as efficiently as I probably should have.

>>717040723
Ok Prey tranny

>>717041115
never played the "new" one, only the original.

>>717041473
The American Indian one?
Its been on my shelf since it came out. Still haven't played it. Is it good?

>4
...there was a 3rd one?

I wonder if the rejected story was about Enol Sumk, and I hope the revamped one will be.

>>717042064
There are 5

Bioshock was never good

>>717042334
You saw one video essay on youtube when you were a teenager

>>717041008
The image is an obvious reference to the System Shock 1 cover art you retard. Also ironic how you shit on PlayStation because Bioshock is casualised SS2 for consoles, so you're like the pot calling the kettle a Nigger.
>>717041115
You are Jewish, as are Bioshock 1 and Infinite.

>>717044892
>jewish
Shodan is based on the whore of babylon,
Not your pic does not look like picrel,
Yes the Shock games are connected thanks for noticing. I agree that the series got casualized.

>>717045280
>Shodan is based on the whore of babylon,
Her design is a nod to Maria from Metropolis (1929). I very much doubt that the artists behind System Shock 2's character designs wanted to tell a story about Jewish victimhood and White guilt like Levine did with his later games.
>Not your pic does not look like picrel
Prefer picrel? Jesus you are autistic.

>>717030978 (OP)
Good fucking riddance. Bioshock suck ass. Total garbage

>>717045280
babylon is proto-jewish

>>717040926
That's one hell of a copeseethe

>>717040696
Maybe they are reading the room and know that if they put dogshit like Infinite out today it would rightfully be shunned. Nobody wants to make the next Concord.

>>717030978 (OP)
>Bioshock 4 rejected by publisher for horrible narrative problems
NOOOOOO
>Bioshock 1 total remake cancelled halfway through development in early 2025
YAAAYYYY

>>717032464
>Did you like the part where you’re always having cute daughters?

Did you like the part where you get to watch them grow up and get BLACKED™?

I feel like there's now more cancelled BioShock games than released ones. There was the Vita game years ago and I feel like there were more.

>Remakes starting to get canceled
Finally. No more crutches if you can't come up with original shit worth a damn you should be sacked
>Bioshock 4 story so fucked they decided to dump it entirely along with the lead devs
Exactly my point. So tired of every studio running to remake shit when they can barely craft something original.
