Zeke ( @Zeke@fedia.io ) 12•2 months agoBioshock is one of my favorite games. Something I can play over and over again.
janabuggs ( @janabuggs@beehaw.org ) 6•2 months agoWhat the fuck are they talking about? Bioshock is one of the most popular games ever played.
magic_lobster_party ( @magic_lobster_party@kbin.run ) 9•2 months agoHe’s talking about System Shock, which wasn’t that immensely popular.
janabuggs ( @janabuggs@beehaw.org ) 3•2 months agoOh yeah that wasn’t very much even though it was so fucking good. I’ve been hearing rumors for years that they were going to bring that back and I think with BioShock success it should happen!
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@fedia.io ) 1•2 months agoI didn’t even realize the remake was already out. lol
magic_lobster_party ( @magic_lobster_party@kbin.run ) 2•2 months agoHe’s specifically talking about the original. Bioshock was unlikely to get made with its budget due to how niche System Shock is. It’s impressive they managed to make Bioshock a big success.
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@fedia.io ) 1•2 months agoThe original is form 94. No game at the time was really popular because computers were purely for nerds and weirdos. It was a super stigmatized niche at the time, especially video games.

DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@fedia.io ) 2•2 months agoBioShock would be a great game for a TV adaptation ala Fallout, and I think Ella Purnell would even make for an amazing Elizabeth.
