BioShock 4: what we want to see
While it was nice to venture outside of the underwater city of Rapture in BioShock: Infinite, it didn't quite feel the same. Sure, there were nostalgic cutscenes and the Burial at Sea DLC let us in once more, but we want to go back properly this time. Perhaps BioShock 4 could see us return to a new Rapture, one that the company has been trying to bring back and embellish as a result of previous game events. Otherwise, we'd like another wonderfully atmospheric city in the same vein. big daddies and little sisters
Sure they're a little scary, but we like them. More importantly, they go a long way to explaining why so many of us loved BioShock but weren't really big players on BioShock: Infinite. We hope to see you again in the next one. Explore to learn more
While this can be confusing at times, BioShock's lore and storytelling is intriguing and we love the webs that have been woven in previous games. Here's hoping 2K pushes itself to build more, perhaps adding some twists and turns. new vigors
Much of what makes BioShock so much fun is the Vigors that you can play with. While it would be great to see the return of our favorites, we want the new Vigors to try and mix it up.
