I'm about half way through; I'm right after trying to save the weapon smith (story makes you do that 3 times...). I haven't played on hard so take that into consideration. But I agree, the game's overrated. God of War: Ascensions got flak for being the most strategic and refined of the series, yet Bioshock Infinite gets a pass for being a very easy shooter? There's no enemy strategy. The A.I. is terrible. They barely try to avoid you, they don't try to flank you, they just stay stationary shooting at you. Only the bigger enemies try to mow you down. It's very disappointing from that regard.
Story so far is "good", nothing special, nothing bad. The part that I'm currently at really drags things down (the gunsmith part). You're literally no farther off after the section than you were before it. That entire section was poorly thought out, just to give you an idea of Elizabeth's powers, could have been completely reworked or at least streamlined.
Setting is fantastic; Columbia is gorgeous. It's a pleasure walking around an area trying to find things, scavenging for money, opening locks. This was well thought out and makes for a great break in between gun fights.
Bioshock: Infinite is an average shooter surrounded by good ideas. I rate it as above average and worth the 60 dollars. Game of the year material though? No, I had more fun with God of War. |
Oh brother! - and I was hoping the game wouldn't/couldn't possibly get more boring.

Played a bit more just now, it gets a lot better. It's just that they shouldn't have done what they did to get to where I am.
