I think the double barrel shotgun is so big is because it was meant to be mounted on something like a ship. You can see it has the mounting point on the bottom of it. Your character just wields it like a regular one due to his size and strength.

There were really huge boat-mounted shotguns in real life, known as punt guns (because they were meant to be mounted on a type of small boat called a punt). They were meant for use in large-scale commercial duck hunting; because of their massive size, they could swat whole flocks of ducks out of the air at once, at the cost of being too big for practical use (as in, twice as long as the user is tall) when not attached to the boat. A sawn-off punt gun would be an . . . _interesting_ concept for a video game gun.

For the life of me, I don't understand why Capcom did away with the factual extended barrel in the Remake and replaced it with some weird looking thing, but if followed the same policy of the original, put a larger barrel on your gun and, huh, suddenly bullets do a little more damage

Comment on the grenade launcher reload, the game wasn't made to be seen at certain fields of view, so I believe the intended effect of the reload is you change out the whole backend (though that would be very cumbersome). You can see another example of it at the beginning of the game when you acquire electro, as on higher fovs, the little sister's mouth doesnt move when she speaks sometimes.

So the thing about the Bioshock 1 grenade launcher reload is that it is indeed fudged. But originally, it wasn't as visible. What we're seeing is footage on modern systems, likely in the remasters, where the animations were not designed for the standard 16:9 aspect ratio. On the old 4:3 aspect ratio that Bioshock was made for, the back piece of the launcher would go fully off screen to indicate that you swapped out the receiver for one using different grenades/launching systems.

Do you own them on PC ? I believe you instantly get the remastered ones, or at least I own them on Steam even though I never purchased the remastered games.

The machine gun was initially going to be from an automated turret. The broken thing on the top was the light and the handles you hold it by used to be what attached it to the rest of the device.

There was a Norwegian revolver, the Landstad revolver, that had the revolving cylinder of course, but also a magazine in the grip. The cylinder only held 2 rounds and the rest were fed from the magazine, so it really just seems like a selfloading pistol with extra steps. But, with a regular 6 shot cylinder plus a magazine it could be a sort of steampunk revolver with additional capacity that makes a bit more sense.

I'd love to see Jonathon's reaction to the guns from Prey 2017, another System Shock 2 inspired game. They're all really unique looking and it'd be interesting to see if there's any similar real-world weapons.

These are the best videos with Jonathan. Guns that aren’t hyper-realistic, so he’s spared having to analyse the 50th M16, but also aren’t total fantasy so he’s spared having to explain how Borderlands guns function. Also to note, I think it’s cool that the Bioshock flamethrower actually seems to fire liquid fuel, rather than acting like a spray can and lighter

I could see how the revolver expansion might work. If it replaces the revolver cylinder with a sort of "bullet carousel" that rotates fresh bullets along the bottom, to the barrel, fires, and then ejects them as it passes to the right of the barrel, then it _might_ work, the issue is that it wouldn't use the traditional engineering to advance the rounds, you'd need some entirely separate mechanism to do that, which I think is what that gear and handle thing does? I expect you could make one of these that works using modern motors and batteries or something, I have no idea whether it'd be possible using more basic gears and springs and the forces of bullets firing and thumbs cocking things though.

9:18 I always assumed that this was a bug. In some games, when the FOV is extended, the reload animations don't look right. An instance is CoD, where a lot of pistols simply reused the mag when it was off screen. I assume they bumped up the FOV after they made the weapon, and forgot to adjust for the FOV on it's animations.

I suggest he takes a look at Boundary. It's a really neat FPS that takes place in space, with some guns that are basically normal ones modified for space use, and other rather interesting but realistic seeming designs that also make a lot of sense. I bet he'd think the designs are very cool and might have some fascinating input.

As others pointed out, the reason why the second game have all these massive weapons being held as a one-handed weapon is because the character you play as is essentially a bio-engineered Terminator twice the size of an average man. Hence why he doesn't even flinched firing a gatling gun with one hand, seeing as his arm is like a steel beam in of itself.
