Don't take it literally, it's a figure of speech we use on /v/ when someone shills a game very hard.

Who is shilling a game almost 2 decades old?
>>342176720
>we
I want you to know, that in everything on /v/, you are alone. No one agrees with you, no one is in league with you, no one likes you. I'm not talking like a general principle for /v/ posters, I mean specifically you. You are entirely alone in everything, and should never, ever speak like anyone is on your side.
I just beat DX1, should I try this next? How scary is it? I can't do scary games.

take a walk outside, friend
>>342176987
You can't talk about anything positively any more it's against the rules.
>>342177096
I wish everyone on /v/ thought like this, then people would generate their own opinions and not bandwagon on everything the /v/ mind does.
Can anyone fill me in what I should expect in my first playthrough?

git gud retard
Von Braun decks except for Rec were tiny compared to Citadel Station, except for maintenance.
Final fight with SHODAN was a tiny bit better than the cyberspace battle of SS1.
>>342177353
Expect endlessly respawning enemies, specifically respawning as soon as you leave the previous room. Game gets kind of tedious around the apartments.
Several tedious levels, too long in general but still pretty cool. I don't really think it's that great, but it's certainly worth giving a shot.
>>342177353
Very exploitable upgrade system, foreign weapons aren't worth it, great atmosphere, your wrench will be your best friend in the beginning and you'll probably die a lot in the beginning as well.

Can you argue without constant resort to generic insults?

Disconnect from the internet.
>>342180354
Sorry, no. But please go on.
>>342177178
Yes you should
It's about a 4 or 5/10 on the spookometer
Also consider playing SS1 first, the enhanced edition adds the option for mouselook if you couldn't handle the original controls
>>342173950
Nothing.
>>342175598
SS2 better in every single respect.
>>342180014
Are you retarded? The angry response you support was posted after some guy called out the git gud-posters
If you're serious, you should support the guy the angry post was directed at, not the angry poster.
>>342181159
>SS2 better in every single respectno
for decades i've had to heard "muh SS2" when playing bioshock 1
so i finally get SS2 and it blows
every enviroment is a grey hallway, save for the final area that takes place in a butthole
the interface is just terrible and you'll spend more time trying to figure out what to click to do what you want than figuring out how to advance through the game
>>342173950
>ladder mechanic is too hard for whiny crybabies that somehow missed playing the other games that run on the same engine (Thief 1 & 2)

Ken levine is/was always an overrated hack.
>>342173950
10/10 except for the body of the Many. Fuck that radioactive water
Enemy variety is pretty bad.
Weapon balance is incredibly awful.
Level design turns to shit at the end of the game.
It's still good though.
Before this game was on Steam I paid $70 for a physical copy. What a disappointment.

problem solved, retard
and no, the game is 9/10 at best, but the body of the Many makes me think it's closer to 8/10
>>342184010
and research*
>>342184078
8/10 is still amazing
>b-but 7/10 is shit
god damn I fucking hate the retarded way gamers rate videogames
in every other medium of entertainment 7 and 8 ratings are considered great
>>342182863
>decades
It's been only 1,7 decades.
There really ain't too many different buttons to press nor do they differ from most more recent games if you spend 30 seconds rebinding actions.
You might even want to cut off certain actions completely like camera center, rotation and leaning to save those keys to more useful things.
Bioshock wan't exactly colorful either, at least in a pleasant way.
>>342183619
this
i don't mind the weapon balance stuff though, it's easy enough to fumble your way through the game the first time and using energy and exotic weapons makes replays fun
>>342184304
I never said it was shit, faggot
it's very good, but not close to 10/10
>>342183619
>Weapon balance is incredibly awful.
This shit right here, I agree.
Why the fuck does the grenade launcher do less damage to robots than the tiny shitty pistol?
>>342184857
Because your weapon skill for grenade launcher is lower than your skill for pistol?
Because you're using less than optimal ammunition type versus robots?
>>342185283
I assumed EMP grenades were the best ammo for fighting robots and turrets
and my standard weapons skill was only a notch or two higher than my heavy weapons, and the grenades still did fuck-all compared to the pistol with AP bullets
>>342184857
Heavy weapons aren't that bad. The grenade launcher's upgrades are bugged so it does insane damage, and the fusion cannon is a decent all purpose weapon since it's super ammo efficient and pretty killy. They're not as good as standard weapons but they're okay.
It's energy and exotic weapons that are the worst, since they're only good against one type of enemy, and aren't even much better than standard weapons are. There's no point to them when standard weapons work fine against every enemy type, and are available earlier, and don't have the million drawbacks exotic weapons do. Laser rapier/crystal shard are nice, but they're not that nice.
>>342179737
the final level isnt even hard it just sucks ass in that special ken levine kinda way
>>342181159
objectively wrong
>>342185872
I made the mistake of spending all my cyber modules on exotic weapons before the final level, because I assumed there would be nothing but worms for ammunition in there
but then I find out that they do literally zero damage against The Many
I spent most of that level freezing shit with the freeze ray (or whatever it's called) and then whacking them to death with the crystal
>>342177178
How do you feel about spiders? The only people I've known to have a problem with the game are arachnophobic, and I think that's mostly in one section.
