    Someone from Take-two leadership said that? Are they ill with something? That’s the most sensible statement i’ve heard from them in ages

      statements mean nothing…prove it. I don’t listen to anything any company says, they only lie.

      produce non trash, and make it affordable or else I’ll continue to just ignore they exist.

        OK when have they produced trash? BioShock rules so wtf is your crusade (which i generally like) doing on this post rn?

        Theyre literally talking to the people and they’re like - were taking the time to make the game good last one was good and we want to keep it that way."

        So yeah let’s consider the obvious turning of that pendulum (quality and crap being more profitable and thus in a way easier to produce in the system we are stuck with being in)and be reasonably hopeful for a reasonable reason for a change

        this probably u rn -> 😒 🤔🤔🤔🤔 😏 -------------> 😩😆

        Much love haha 😎

          Kerbal Space Program 2 was going fine until they put their hands on it

          Borderlands 3 comes to mind as do both of the Tales from the Borderlands games. There’s been a few misses in the 2K sports line up as well.

          Let’s see if they can do a new game without resorting to returning to Rapture like they did with Infinite and Burial at Sea.

      It does wound an aweful lot like the whole skate. Situation. We really want to make the best game possible and we really care for customer feedback. Hmm turns out they really didn’t and just try to sell micro transactions

    I really disliked bioshock 3. So I have little hope.

    The story was over the top but without saying anything interesting or iconic.

    Gunplay is a weird mix between call of duty and bioshock and it doesn’t work.

    Upgrade system along with only two weapons felt weird. Topics are less useful and less common than in previous games.

    “Choices” in story are not choices, completely useless.

    Companion AI is bland, they promised a revolution with Elisabeth but it’s just a fly tied on a cord, there’s zero AI in it. It can’t die so there’s nothing to interact. It just moves around you, pretend to seek supplies and to hide from bullets but it’s all fake, it cannot be hurt and she just tosses you supplies on scripted events.

    The bird is hyped and have zero impact in the gameplay.

    And I could go on…

    Bioshock 1 is a thousand times better game in every single aspect.

      Making Elizabeth invincible is the only way that game is playable for me. There’s no chance in hell I’d play an entire game that’s one long escort quest where I’m constantly worried about the useless sidekick that I’d rather be without. She may not have added much, but a superficial narrative device is a thousand times better than a crippling gameplay decision.

      I think the original devs left after the second one. The third was a new crew. I could be misremembering too, though.

      Edit: I was mistaken as everyone has pointed out. It makes a lot more sense that way.
