Played through the whole thing in one sitting.

Bioshock 2 fixes some of the flaws in the gameplay from the first game. Not to say the first ones gameplay isn’t good but there was just some stuff the 2nd game did better.

I also really appreciate the fact more characters have unique models in this one. That was something that always bothered me about the 1st game was that most important characters were just regular enemy models.

With that said I do feel the story is kinda lacking in this one. While I’m invested in getting Subject Delta to Eleanor it doesn’t quite carry the same weight as the first game.

While I do praise the improved gameplay the actual objectives you have in each level also didn’t feel as unique or interesting to me as the first game. Also the game is a bit shorter then the first which isn’t bad but I would of liked maybe 1 or 2 more levels.

With that said I still love this game and I feel it’s very deserving to be talked about in just as high regard as the first! And that isn’t even mentioning the superb DLC Minerva’s Den which honestly has a better story then the main game.

While I don’t revisit it as much as the first it is still a game I enjoy fondly.
