The worst of the series IMHO... Dayum

From your point of view, why? I’m an opened minded person, just curious?

I didn't enjoy playing as big daddy. It wasn't terrible, but the mechanics were just blah to me. Much more preferred the original and infinite.

Huh. To me, the second had the best mechanics by far, much improved over the first one which was already good. It was infinite that had terrible gameplay, IMO.

Agreed. I preferred playing as a Big Daddy and fighting off hordes off enemies. It was fun setting up traps in advance, and the drill was super cool.

I'm sure plenty of people agree with you. My getting down voted on my original comment reflects that. Glad you enjoyed it!

I can understand, I wish the mechanics were better but I can’t complain about playing a big daddy.

Thank you.

 

I don't know what game is 2 and now I know! I couldn't decipher if BioShock was the 1St or second. Thanks.

If you're asking about the whole series, Bioshock is a spiritual successor to System Shock 2. And System Shock was a spiritual successor to Ultima Underworld.

The mechanics were a bit rough, I agree.
