I’ll play Infinite for the first time this year (maybe… it keeps getting pushed back in my backlog) and I am so curious about it. Some people say it’s one of the best games of all time and some that it’s overrated and meh.
I played it earlier this year after having played the first 2 only (and that was 10-15 years ago).
Infinite is a good game, graphics hold up beautifully. I wouldn’t say it’s one of the greatest of all time but it was a very good game regardless.
Probably there was a hype cycle at the time of its release that I wasn’t aware of, as that’s the only way I see it as being regarded as meh.
Honestly it’s just more Bioshock, but set in the clouds rather than underwater, I liked the change of style.
I love infinite but my problem with the game is that Booker (the main character/you) is really annoying IMO. I just want him to shut up and be a silent main character rather than some COD protagonist knockoff
All three games are master pieces in my opinion. 3 is just different from the previous two, so people dont like that. I say play them all and appreciate them for what they are.
BioShock infinite was ok experince on linux, I have completed it twice. (The native binary runs via its own internal translation scheme, so I suggest running via dxvk/proton instead for more speed.) I would say however that it’ll be a lot more hollow and straight forward “pipe run” than its predecessors. I own bioshock 2, but it’s dead, obsolete M$hit only version that i haven’t played since it eated my save files three times.

Agreed. Or give him more of a personality at least.

Hah, it’s in between.
It had a lot of nostalgia glasses haters, a lot of “GOTY!” industry marketing, and a few launch performance issues IIRC. But it’s a good game.
Won’t get more specific than that, other than just play it!

Same experience for me with infinite, forcing proton results in a better performance than using the native Linux build.
