I wonder how the story would change with big daddies in wheelchairs. Would they have a different job? Is that guy retired? Maybe Sinclair would develop crazy prosthetics…
I don’t know all the BioShock lore, but maybe that concept art was meant for a hypothetical version where they use disabled people as bid daddy’s. (I don’t remember where they canonically come from.)
From what I remember, Big Daddies are the repairman of Rapture. They go around fixing any leaks in the pipes and doing general maintenance and repairs. When the Little Sisters emerge, Big Daddies are repurposed to protect them. (IMO this is not a suitable job for a disabled person lol) I think they might have done some psycho drug thing to them in order to establish the relationship with the Little Sister but I don’t remember.
I definitely remember they had drugs to make them affectionate of and protectors of the Little Sisters. With things like concept art it’s hard to know how early in the process it was. Big Daddy’s could’ve been nothing more than “boss type enemy with old timey diving suit.” They could’ve been concepting their origins and purpose as well. The “guns” the middle and left are holding could also look like a tool. It could be something that serves as both. The mech suit from Aliens comes to mind, which was essentially the equivalent of fighting a bear with a forklift lol. Or maybe something like the rail spike gun from Fallout is a better comparison.
It could also be that they planned on each Big Daddy being a little different, or at least more different types than there were. I just double checked the wiki and there were two in the first game: the Bouncer (the iconic one from the cover) and Rosie. Also, it’s saying the original candidates for the Big Daddy program were criminals and dissidents. The idea that in the right wing dystopia of Rapture they’d force invalids into the Big Daddy program to make them “useful” isn’t terribly far fetched.
Maybe it was scrapped because there weren’t many spaces where wheelchair bound enemies made sense.
I actually felt it was one of the best games I’ve played in the last 10 years. I really enjoyed the story. The game is beautiful. I love the amount of immersion that is possible, especially with mods. I’ve played through it twice.
I really, really wish we could inspect weapons. One mod gets close, but it isn’t the same as a Rockstar-style weapons inspection. We don’t even get to zoom in on the models in inventory. A damned travesty because the weapons are gorgeous.
But overall, I find it hard to fault, especially given its state at launch.
Stellaris. I’m almost at 1400 hours in the game and while I now play it a lot less often than in the first 1000 hours, I still get the itch to play it again a few times a year.
I just broke 1400 hours and still going strong. There’s so much to do and so much to learn, and it’s so good at rewarding grinding and keeping you chasing those incremental improvements. It’s 100% replaced RuneScape for me.
I have broken 1000 hours with Cookie Clicker, Guild Wars 2, RuneScape, and Eve Online. I don’t recommend the latter two anymore, but CC and GW2 still hold up.
Honorable mention to Factorio. I’m still in the hundreds but it’s climbing.
Not a huge fan of the sets and how the bonuses work, but it’s still pretty straightforward and better than the old armor system. Everything else is great. Magazines are a little weird in a split group because we typically have one person go into loot perks, but magazines drop based on the skills of who loots the container, but it gives access to crafting recipes to people who otherwise wouldn’t have them because they were previously skill level locked.
Have done at least one fresh run through major updates since a16 and the game has never gotten worse, in my opinion. The new pois are amazing. As well. Oh and the trader system is fixed and quest leveling overhauled, rewards improved, and progression made transparent. A little glitch in multiplayer though, last I played.
I played both games on Xbox and i like it!Cyberpunk77 i bougth since day one had lot of bugs but for me was playable on that time even with bugs lol!I like the story mode but my expectations was more higher!For me the Witcher 3 was i had a best experience and the longivity of the game is insane!Both games are good but different styles!
Apart from Flight Simulator 2020 and DCS, I absolutely love games like Euro Truk Simulator 2 and Snowrunner. I put ungodly amounts of hours into those. Especially ETS 2 is incredibly relaxing. No pressure, just a lovely drive. It’s definitely not for everyone though.
