Bio shock one really hit it out of the park with the great world building. The little sisters were so creepy too

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.
This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.
The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.
- All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
- Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
- If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
- MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
- No generative AI art.

Rapture is definitely a Hall of Famer of narrative settings. Colombia doesn't hold a candle to it. Despite Infinite having a banger story and great gameplay, the flying city never had that something that Rapture does.
Apologies up front for being Nit picky … but you have your comparison backwards.
it doesn’t hold a candle to Colombia
Based on the rest of your statement, I believe you mean that Columbia doesn’t hold a candle to Rapture.
The idiom means “worse thing” isn’t as good as “better thing”.
You are right.
Colombia had hope. It had an initial welcoming feel. Rapture felt foreboding before you even managed to get there.
This is a game I would love to see a remake of. I mean a total overhaul not just a slap some nicer textures on the models and tweak the lighting type of remake.
It had such a fantastic storyline and awesome characters that pulled you in. Same for Bioshock Infinite.
Honestly, I thought the remaster worked pretty well. I bought it in 2020 and had no idea what to expect, and it was pretty great
Can’t believe there hasn’t been a new one of these. Would be an instant buy
Irrational Games sorta disbanded, and got restructured into Ghost Story Games, which is much, much smaller.
They aren't really set up for Bioshock type games anymore.
2K has spun up a new studio, Cloud Chamber, which has been working on a new Bioshock for the last four years.
Ohhh wow, ty for the info, I had no idea. I’ll have to look up info on cloud chamber!
Loved the aesthetic of this place. Couldnt get into Infinite, just didn't float my boat in the same way.
Ahh, I'd re visit this game if it wasn't for my huge backlog...
I only played it on the PS3 and it had a tiny as fuck font if I remember correctly.
