If Ken wrote Bioshock's recording logs you pick up, and the story, you are a GENIUS! Those logs are the best written and voice acted scripts I've ever had the pleasure of reading! Soooo great!

It's cool Ken is still doing his thing, but it's a shame someone as creative and unique as him can't exist in the AAA space anymore.

He chose to leave AAA gaming... he wants to do a smaller game that has less commercial expectations and more to do with meeting academic, hardcore audience expectations.

I wish Ken Levine the best with Ghost Story & am definitely looking forward to seeing his next project, but I gotta say, He set the bar waaaaaay to high with BioShock 1 and Infinite. Doubt he will ever see this, but THANK YOU for creating what is hands down the best video game I have/probably will ever play.

When he talked about radical recognition, I remembered how he kinda did something similar in Bioshock 1. In Fort Frolic, when you jumped from a balcony to another balcony with a gene tonic, Sander Cohen says, "What an outstanding display of athleticism." Lol

Man washed up hard with Infinite. Easily the worst """Bioshock""" game of the series. Cover-based shooter with de-emphasized power usage. May he either never touch another game again, or go back to Bioshock 1.

@NoseKey They had to force the connection to the previous games in the DLC. The moment-to-moment story in the game was almost non-existent. The only real story that was given was the slow reveal that Mother Comstock wasn't actually Elizabeth's mother and how Father Comstock tried to kill Luttece, inadvertantly making them into Mr/Ms Manhattan, followed by the abrupt reveal and conclusion. Bioshock 1 had (in order) Atlas' family up to Arcadia, Jack's origin in Hephaestus Core, Tenenbuam and Yi Suchong in Olympus Heights, and the Big Daddy creation after. Conclusion. Bioshock 2 had each of the four "boss" characters, the shift of power from Ryan to Sofia Lamb, the father who waded through the Hell of Rapture to find his kidnapped daughter, Delta+Eleanor. Conclusion. Infinite was the least lore-filled that didn't even have the same gameplay as a Bioshock game. If it wasn't for the "Bioshock" on the cover, I'd say it was a decent game for a new IP, but it's a trash Bioshock game that forcefully retcons the previous games. Didn't "wrap-up" anything that it itself didn't open. Just a cash-in production.
