- The Irrational Games team has spent the last 8 months crafting the final chapter of the BioShock Infinite saga. They are here to share with you some of their proudest work from Burial at Sea - Episode Two.
Full information here: irrationalgames.com/insider/ir... - Hry
We are glad that we lived in this generation, with the best series ever seen: Bioshock
true
Gonna miss you. My only hope now is that if 2K makes another Bioshock game, they don't fuck it up. It's a great saga.
Yeah. They created AMAZING Bioshock 2. I hope they take care of it
Ambient Occlusion Amazing?...It wasn't that bad, but...there was this something that was missing...maybe I only don't like it, because the MAC-Port was extremely glitchy...however imo Bioshock without Ken Levine is not the same...
lagieli
I think it was just it didnt have the twist or the mystery to it but then I treat it as a side story and its a good one in that regard. I think there is still hope for Bioshock. If they can get a good writer on there (and they try hard to find one) it can still have life. Just gotta be positive!
I dont played on mac =D. Bioshock 2 amazing because he looks like first Bioshock but in 3x better
lagieli BS2 was a nice adding to BS1, true, it's not as good, but the little additions were nice, and i'm always happy to visit Rapture.
Give them time ;)
Bioshock is my favorite Game series. It probably always will be. What Irrational gave to us with these games is astonishing when I really think about it. And knowing that Irrational is effectively coming to an end is going to make BAS Episode 2 bittersweet for me. Still, I'm excited to see how Irrational wraps up their chapter in the Bioshock universe, and I hope to see 2K treat the franchise well in the future. Here's to all the amazing times Irrational has given us, to BAS, and to the bright future of Bioshock!
Thank you Irrational Games for what you did to the gaming community. I've been a gamer since I was 4, but it wasn't until i played the original Bioshock that I learned that video games can be much, much more than just something to pass the time or to have fun. It can teach lessons and inspire you. Your games had more of an effect on me than any others and I wish all that were involved in bringing these games to life good luck in the future
When the history of video games is written yet again, Mr. Robison, I am convinced that the Bioshock series will be held up as an important step in the evolution of storytelling in video games.
May all of these people profiled wind up finding job and working on projects that are every bit as legendary as Bioshock!
Good luck to every member of the Irrational's crew. You've done an incredible job.
And some people say video games aren't art.. These guys are fantastic at what they do! Bioshock is one of the most innovative franchises out there.
A real shame that all these people are being let go... I hope the 'new' irrational games makes a game that's worth it.
I LOVE BIOSHOCK SERIES SOO MUCH
Thanks guys, thanks for creating my favorite games and for creating my favorite video game character. You guys are amazing and you're all going to go on and do amazing things. Thanks for everything guys.
couldnt agree more also from what i can tell from your profile picture and comment i believe we both share the same favourite game character
The slightly brighter side of the closure of Irrational Games.
R.I.P Irrational Games
pour a 40 out
TheDman9911 ?
I have to say, that lock picking thing was actually pretty boss. How everything goes into schismatic drawing mode and the lock pulls apart. Looked fantastic.
God damn, the feels. Such a great studio.
Thank you irrational games!bioshock is one of my favorite games of all time. I can't wait for the dlc and best of luck for all you. You will be missed :(
Good Guy Rational, links to all former employees websites in the video.
I cant believe there isnt anyone who would go like
"Hey there is all these supertalented people in Irrational Games, what if i (we) start a new studio with all of them? We wouldnt have to search talented people to make games, We would have then already. So they dont have to separate and spread such talented group. Maybe we convince 2K that we can deliver another Bioshock in time since they have worked of them before. We know what we are doing, when we make another Bioshock."
R.I.P Irrational Games. Even if you all have to separate, your honor is that you all delivered some of the most important game experienced in history of gaming. Created unforgetable characters, settings, stories and music in games. I hope everyone of you finds a new place in this life. We fans love you all.
You guys did an awesome job. You will all be missed, and I hope you guys get amazing jobs with great companies. Best of luck!
The first Bioshock was the game where I realized that video games can be so much more than just a way to pass the time. Irrational showed me how games can tell stories in such a deep and impacting way. Gunna miss em
Let us also remember that they did that with the least story-friendly genre out there, the first person shooter.
You guys did phenomenal work and I appreciate every bit of detail you put in. Hope you guys find jobs quickly and thank you for making memories for me when I am reminded about how much fun this game was years in the future.
I love bioshock, its probably, if not the best game i have ever played, the setting, the lore just everything about bioshock i love, from shooting up plasmids to just staring out of the one of many windows, and just gazing out into the city, killing splicers with electro bolt to smashing Andrew Ryan in the face with own golf club, i love every single one of you who contributed to making this beautiful game and universe, i wish all of you the best of luck in your future and i hope 2k do a fantastic job in making bioshock games in the future, burial at sea episode 2 will just as amazing as the first episode and i carn't wait to see how irrational wrap you the infinite series :)
The achievements of this series cannot be overstated. Ken Levine and Irrational Games took one of the least story-friendly genres, the FPS, and was able to tell a series of stories that I would stack up against the original Twilight Zone series' best episodes (not coincidentally, the first two games take place during the 1960s and Infinite chooses a time period that TZ constantly used and referenced). RIP Irrational Games...and most certainly RIP Bioshock as we know it.
Really looks like everybody there are about to cry at the end of the interview
:(
Looks like a phenomenal team.
Understandable, Mr. Nardelli. They know that the end of this chapter of their lives is coming and they are likely uncertain what they're going to be doing next. That kind of transition is always a rough ocean to cross.
Azatarot75
Agreed, but they're lucky as bioshock was so well received that having it on their cv's will open a lot of doors.
killerbee256 In theory, yes...it might even be the way it works out. But...think about a moment in your life where you were so unsure that something was going to go your way...and you really NEEDED it to go your way. That's where this whole crew right now.
Azatarot75
I guess it depends on how much fore warning they got.
Thanks for the great games. I don't play many, but I'm glad this one of the franchise that's going to stay in my mind for a long long time. I want to tgype somme morew but thest upidd tearsss i jus...
I hope all former Irrational Games employees find a great new job that they deserve soon.
"dangerous times dangerous measures protect Irrational Games and their treasure"
RIP Irrational miss you :'(
what can i say to irrational and the bioshock series well i havnt got the words to describe my gratitude and amazment at a game series which i have such amazing memories off and how i still play each and every bioshock to this day. These games bring so much emotion and amazing story and indepth worlds to gaming and will never be forgotten also i will never forget those few days before bioshock infinite came out and how i played through the entire series in preperation for infinite and how excited i was when played those first few minutes of infinite and as for infinite it is and will always be my favourite game and i love every second of it. the detail in character voice acting character development, brilliant gameplay and so much more is outstanding as well as a kick as ending and so i say farwell irrational and thankyou Ken Levine for creating something which i never thought possible "the perfect game" cant wait for Burial at sea Episode 2 and wish all irrational workers the best of luck thank you again for the gift that has been the bioshock series forever thankfull ShockJockey16 (obviously im named after the vigor LoL:)
Good Bye Irrational Games ... I don't like how the story was concluded and written in the ep but you have done a marvelous job creating BioShock ...
I LOVED Atlas's voice. It was clear crisp accented and terrifying. Couldn't stop watching it
Such an amazing journey, with even more amazing games, experiences, and achievements. Pity this is coming to a close seemingly due to the hubris and callousness of one person. But this about celebrating what these people achieved, and that deserves all the praise and feels in the world! Here's to hoping everything they created simply doesn't fade away.
Hubris would be letting the product get diluted into something like Call of Duty (or as I tend to call it, Cash On Demand). Callousness would be in simply dumping them out the door without doing things like this video to help them land their next job.
Their place in game history is secure...but, like you, I want to go on to more good things.
R.I.P. Irrational Games you may not be missed in others eyes but you will definitely be missed in mine because you guys were and still are a huge inspiration to me.
All of you are amazingly talented individuals. I hope all of you continue to do great things. Godspeed!
A truly sad day to see such a beautiful team of talented people go separate ways!
This company, it's games, and employees should not be forgotten. I hope 2K handles the BioShock series well, I'm curious to see what they'll come up with. I also want to see what Ken does with his new studio.
My proudest moment of you, guys,is how you've created such a twisted story, and the way you linked Bioshock Infinite world and Main Characters to Bioshock 1,2's Rapture world. Especially tying up those different stories into these consequences, which opened in the end of BAS. Brilliant!!!!
And one more: BAS ep 2 gameplay is totally different gameplay. Almost like a different game at all if put away linking the story to the whole game-plot. Elizabeth lonely crawling in the dark corners, otherwise she dies easily and missing Booker. was sad.
HUGE PS: I'm in LOVE with your Luteces. (You shoud be proud of them too)
Studio makes a critically and commercially successful game... still gets shut down
Actually, it was Levine's decision to do that. He wanted to take the operation down to the basics once again. 15 other people will be working with him on the new venture under the 2K umbrella. That he's doing this on behalf of the people who has worked for him says more about him than it ever did any of MY old bosses.
***** Shrug...if you say so. I'm going by official statements myself and have no patience for anything that can't be proven. As such, do you have any kind of link to the info you just fed or are you just working from a theory?
***** Thanks for the link! Sorry if I seemed a little short, but you know and I know how people throw things around on these forums without proof. Glad to know that you had some in your corner.
It had nothing to do with the success of lack of it of the game.
Its just Lewine is a egoistical self absorbed twat with delusions of grandeur.
He does not care about those people, they did their job now time to fire them and find other people that will make money for him.
Im really shocked take two let him get away with it since they invested a lot of money in that studio, idiots everywhere in this industry.
googleslocik I'm even more shocked that you actually buy your own bullshit in bulk.
The end of an era, but hopefully this will signal a great beginning for a new studio and great jobs for the laid-off employees. Thanks for all the amazing games.
I tried to resist, but l couldn't 't.
This final DLC looks amazing! Congrats to the Irrational team!
love you irrational,always will be my favorite,good luck shawn,ken,and all the others who worked for irrational :)
Thank you very much for incredible work you guys and gals have done. I can say for a lot of us we will miss you all very much and wish you all the best.
You guys are all talented and great at what you do. I enjoyed the game thoroughly and it's one of the best games I ever played. All the best for you all.
You guys are awesome. The best of luck to each one of you and thanks for everything.
The DLC looks great I wish you guys good luck
ITS BEEN years......and still hoping.....ken levine will come back
He will... he will...
Bioshock Was Fantastic ! im so gutted theres gonna be nothing after :(
Words cannot describe the sadness I feel for your closure. I know you'll no doubt set up again under another name but these Bioshock games. Shit.
I missed it when the first came to Xbox as I'm a PS guy but then it came to us too. I saw the demo. I downloaded the demo. I played the demo. The demo terrified me and I swore I'd never play it again.
The next day I was right back into that demo and had the full game in my possession by the end of the week.
The first Bioshock might possibly be my favourite game of all time. That feeling was enough for me to pick up the Ultimate Songbird edition of Infinite and I loved that too.
All in all, now that this giant comment comes to a close, I just want to say thank you to all of you for making such fantastic games that have taken me through so many emotions and made playing games be such an exquisite pleasure.
Once again, thank you Irrational. You magnificent bastards.
We wish the teams all the luck on their new projects.
I have high hopes for this final DLC. I hope they make it longer than part 1.
I heard it's going to be around 7 hours long. Or more, but I could be wrong.
CloverGames
nope your right
5-6 hours says Ken Levine
AppleBlossomUnicorn BLUESHYGUY8000 Here's a theory. I feel like I know EXACTLY how this is going to end, with booker going on to be Ryan but looking different because yaknaw splicing :D But then at the end of Bioshock Infinite booker uses the Bathysphere that only Ryan dna can use. Also as you know the lutece twins are both the same person but male and female versions. I feel like jack is the male version of Elizabeth and the tattoos that jack has has something to do with the Circle, You know "Will the circle be unbroken" from the main campaign of Infinite. Since Booker has tried so many times and failed as you can see from the Heads or Tails moment, the universe just keeps looping over and over again waiting for something to change aka "Will the circle be unbroken." Since jack has chain tattoos on his arms, he might have branded himself as a reminder of the never ending loop of the universe to prevent the paradox. And to back up everything, In Bioshock 1 Ryan and Jack are the same bloodline, and in infinite Booker and ellie are too. But that's just a theory :D
its 7-8 hours and you can play this DLC on many ways so you are going to spend a whole lot more time than you spend in the first DLC ;)
Absolutely stunning. Irrational shows what games can be. And sadly, not too many are like this lot out there. I sincerely hope the bioshock series can live on somehow. But with people who are as passionate and dedicated as you guys. Loved all of them so far. Sadly I won't be able to buy the last 2 episodes due to them being DLC. If I could get them on disk I'd have purchased them already. :(
Bioshock 1-3 will live on as some of the best games i've played in my gaming life which goes back to Atari 2600. Sad to see you go. :(
"Would you kindly..."
Wow, you guys went all out on this. Can't wait to actually play this through, see what's going on.
Also, I like how most of them call this DLCC, which is the technical title. It got down to that, huh? Down to the wire.
can't wait for part 2
RU: Дорогие мои Irrational! Таких компаний, как вы - очень мало! Ваши игры являются произведениями искусства, особенно биошок. Благодаря вам я полюбил джаз и ретро-музыку. Вы умеете создать в своих играх уникальный фантастический мир, которому веришь! Благодарим вас за это! Почему я пишу письмо на русском? - этим я хочу показать, что ваши игры любят не только в США, а еще и в Росии, Украине... собственно говоря любителей ваших игр много в любой стране! Удачи вам.
This video actually is very sad irrational we're amazing at making games they have given gamers such a amazing experience bioshock is the best video game series off all time in my opinion and I want more from the series in the future burial at sea episode 2 looks amazing can't wait till march 25th gonna be great
I actually expects that Liz will die or will become crazy in the end...but i'm still hoping for a Paris Ending...
haha this guy
marco loya why? you know me?
I saw your post in the previous video "I´m still hoping for a Paris ending"
I want her to get to Paris too...after what that poor girl's been through, she's earned it about five or six times over in my opinion. That said, I don't expect that she'll have an easy road to get there if that is indeed the final destination.
Who tf is Liz
Greeting from Russia and thanks people for this unique, wonderfull game! It's very sad about the breakup of your team :(
It pains me to see such rich, creative story driven world with characters who you never forget come to an end but when you consider that it was a miracle bioshock 1 was even created, to have 3 games at the end plus dlc isn't the worst that could have happened just glad I was along for the ride.
BIOSHOCK, ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF ALL TIME.
THANK YOU IRRATIONAL FOR THE BEST GAMING EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE. FAREWELL !
Aww shit! Shawn Elliot! CGW radio memories flooding back!
The best thing about Irrational is they aren't afraid to show that they're a collection of passionate people and game developers BECAUSE they aren't so focused on meeting corporate-established deadlines for the new 'soulless profitable yearly shooter' or sports game.
Yeah, I said it. CoD is uninspired. The end.
Know what my new nickname for CoD is? Cash on Demand.
I will always remember infinite.
I will miss you ;( i loved your work i think bioshock is the best game ever human created ;) Thank you! You were the best ;-)
Goodbye game, I really, really wish we got a happy ending
If you look at the right bottom corner you'll see the Fontaine Futuristics symbol from Bio 2. Good to see Ken Levine realizing Bioshock 2 was a great game as well.
I think that was more demented cultists of the first game knocking 2 than Levine himself, given the interview a fellow poster had of Levine basically saying that 2 was a part of the universe (well before Infinite finally got here, I might add). 2 is actually my personal favorite. The story, in many ways, set up the story for Infinite.
I know Shawn Elliot from his podcast, but I had no idea he was a game designer, let alone a game designer FOR IRRATIONAL.
OMG!!!!!! As I write in the last video, she has all of her finger. Check at the beginning and near 4:22 her right hand.
The angle's too sloppy for me on that part to see that part of the right hand, which, by the way, would be your LEFT, just in case you're looking at the wrong hand.
Azatarot75 Thanks to worry about my orientation skills, but yes, at 4:22, her right hand is on our left side and I give you the point that the image isn't super clear... BUT at 0:30 you can't deny that we see her right hand with her whole five right fingers on our right side...
Audrey Fauteux-Robillard Okay, I see that on this particular bit...but I don't think that's an accident. In fact, I've a feeling that's part of Ken Levine's final twist, much like the chain tattoos on Jack in the original Bioshock were part of THAT story's plot curveball.
I'm scared Elizabeth will die because of the way Brian mcnett says this will conclude bioshock infinite.
Do show a little more imagination than that...the end of the saga is not necessarily the end of Liz. Have you considered that she might finally make it to Paris?
She still hasent been to paris!? What the hell has she been doing after bioshock infinite? It's been a couple years since then considering how different Elizabeth looks now.
Bioshock970 Hahahahaha....that is an interesting question, isn't it? Why would you assume that her time has been her own since she helped her dear dad out of existence altogether? When you're working with or for the Luteces, the things you need to get done are rarely the things you want to do.
If 2K is going to let all these people go, apart from the fact that Levine wants them out of his studio, than what do they intend to do with the franchise ?
2K shouldn't let these people go, they should house them at another studio. It would be a waste of talent to fire them.
Go to Irrational Games.com and read "A message from Ken Levine" to understand more about this.
Well the franchise will be handed over to 2K and it's up to them if they want to make a new game
Awww I knew it was to good to be true :( Well, I hope we get to explore a tiny bit more of pre-fall a Rapture
I'm physically shaking right now....
I cried and swore :'(
I hope this ending is amazing (which I have no doubt that it will be) and that Bioshock as a series (as much as I love it) can be put to rest. In a age where Movies and games are milked too much, I want Bioshock to just simply be put to rest with the great conclusion of Infinite and the Burial at Sea DLC
I'm really excited about this but I also wish you guys expanded on the world of Columbia in a narrative experience.
Mmmm, I somehow don't think that Columbia is nearly as interesting as Rapture was myself. Frankly, it reminded me too much of my small town in the present day if they'd hijacked the right scientists.
Yup they did an insane good job with Episode 2...its way better than the 1st Episode....its sad though to see it coming to an end.
It makes me so sad that the good, creative BioShock will be no more.
The worst thing that happened in my life is the end of irrational games. :c
Please dont force me to use a crossbow the whole DLC!!!
Im crying ;-(
I hope that there will be multiple endings and this will be longer than the first. I also hope you have the HARVEST or RESCUE option and to see Eleanor Lamb and Subject Delta.
I'm sorry, but that would be terrible. One of the main points of the story of Bioshock Infinite was that there is no choice. and to be given the ability to harvest the little sisters would be completly out of character for elizabeth.
Well it's confirmed to be 5-6 hours long
I wish Irrational Games could've gone for 10 more years making Bioshock or a new IP :(
Was thinking Bioshock's Artist Hung Nguyen is by any chance related to Dong Nguyen , Flappy bird creator .
This was a great video:) they all deserve amazing jobs. Why were they calling it DLC C though. What's the second C for? I really hope I'm not an idiot and missing what that means lol
Third DLC
ABC
DLC: C
Can we get a Ghost Story Jobs - Proudest Moments? Jk my dad will come back from getting a pack of cigs way before Ken Levine makes another game
Oh god could you please have augustus Sinclair be in this! at least briefly!
3:21 charrucdurrs
Sorry, couldn't hold that in :D
I was really hoping there'd be a Bioshock set on the Moon, year 1969 (The historical background would relate to The Space Race/Cold War). I'm gonna miss this series.
Just one question though: Would having already played Bioshock 2 be necessary to enjoy this DLC more? I completed the first but the second is just sitting in my Steam library.
Having played all three of the main games, my guess would be no, playing 2 is not necessary to appreciate the final chapter of Burial at Sea. Having said that, get your ass in gear and play 2 as soon as you can. You'll be part of the nastiest custody battle in the history of gaming.
Azatarot75 Coolio, Thanks :3
Tomorrow everyone! =)
Considering the fact that most of you were the ex-developers of Thief, I want the upcoming game to be stealth game :P
Maybe you completely missed it, but there won't be an upcoming game. Everyone is being let go.
***** All but 15 people...which is why I am glad to see this video make the rounds.
Tenenbaum better be in this episode!
I'm sure she will be in it, she was a important character in the first bioshock.
Anybody knows the music that starts at 4:07?
its depressing that these people lost their jobs
IRRATIONAL GAMES NOOOO D: BIOSHOCK IS A PERFECT GAME DONT LET THEM DO THIS D:
What is the video thumbnail?
4:42 Atlas? :D
Why can't they announced Bioshock Infinite Ultimate Columbia Edition?
Maybe one day, Ken will release it while working at his new studio
My question for this DLC is how do they make Elizabeth not use her Tear powers ?
Because she hasn't them anymore.
IdeacasdeBombero What ?! How ?!
Mhariz Saifuddin Play the DLC and it's explained ;)
Mhariz Saifuddin She Dea'
all this guys have been fired
СТЕЕЕЕЕЛС! Зашибись.
CONFRONT YOUR WEAKNESS!!!!
At 0:30, WHY DOES ELIZABETH HAVE HER PINKIE?
Play the DLC and it's explained
So are these all the people that got fired? .. lol
You ever lose your job with no Plan B on how to get one? If so, I'm wondering why you're laughing.
Azatarot75 You're assuming the above troll has ever had a job.
involutionOcean Perhaps...but being out of work myself at the moment, I make no assumptions.
Azatarot75 Sorry to hear that. Hope you find work soon. Myself, I freelance, since I got tired of companies pulling the rug out from under me. It's tough sometimes, but even with all the downsides I'd never go back.
involutionOcean It's mostly how I've been getting by myself via ghostwriting. Doesn't pay as well as a regular job but a lot less headaches. I am looking to break into the game industry and am currently going to school for just that.
Dayum, too bad they are scattered now :/
