Bioshock Infinite is one of the worst games I've ever played in comparison to how well it was received. The gameplay was shit. The enemies are all bullet sponges. The plot is about how Ken Levine doesn't understand the sci-fi concept of parallel universes at all and when slaves violently rebel they are as bad as the people who enslaved them. You can upgrade your weapons but you will use whichever one happens to be nearby since ammo is so scarce except when Elizabeth magically manifests some to throw to you. Songbird is a creature that screams WE WILL HAVE A BIG BOSS FIGHT and it never comes. It's awful.
I thought it was notably disliked by most fans of the previous games.
It was super popular and many flaws overlooked for as long as the theorycrafting went on but eventually people figured out it's just a nonsensical mess and the opinion reversed
I think it was only popular because of the porn
That entire game was such a huge disappointment, the gameplay trailers completely misrepresented what they were able to finally put out
I'll go you one further and say that it started back in Bioshock 1, which was a shit successor to the legacy of Looking Glass. Infinite was just the final insult.
At least the system shock remake is good.
