[@moonbound6478]

Not sure if you mentioned this or not but not every big daddy was connected to the suit. Delta was able to remove his helmet and Sigma was able to remove the entire suit. It's possible that the Alpha series didn't have that requirement.

[@Eutropios]

It is confirmed that the requirement of a human being surgically bound to the big daddy suit affects only models after the Alpha Series.

i love bioshock's universe so much especially 1 and 2's, the atmosphere is so dark and grim, with the underwater setting being so foreboding its so engrossingly immersive. seriously i remember playing bioshock 1 as a kid around release date i knew NOTHING about bioshock i didnt even know it was gonna be a kinda creepy game until i got down and the splicers started attacking the biosphere. as a kid those splicers were creepy as HELL. and the big daddies scared me really bad i would run from them or reload to avoid them and walk around them if i could because they were so intimidating.

[@fffrrraannkk]

I was 28 when the first game released and it creeped me out every time I played. I also knew nothing of it before I played. A friend just kept telling me I need to play it and didn't want to spoil anything. As a kid that must have been horrifying lol.

[@turbofanlover]

Young kids really shouldn't be playing this game. Where were your parents?!

[@Drew_2152]

I watched a playthrough of bioshock1 then a week later I got the game and realized how terrifying the big daddies were with there sounds they make, therr charges, and just by first hand gameplay and combat in general. It wasn't only the big daddies but also the disturbing environment. I thought the environment wasn't as disturbingly scary until I put on my headphones and listened to the enemy noises and background ambience. Bioshock will always give that occasional anxiety and nerving feel which is fun.

[@blujay5853]

I love the people who made bio shock. They took their time and experimented. Even going on to make Infinite which is still one of the most iconic games that ever was

[@FeedMeSalt]

This game nailed the big daddy. Nothing is more scary then momma bear energy.

[@blazermettro2059]

I thought their whole point was to be a father and daughter bond?

[@FeedMeSalt]

@@blazermettro2059 in nature a father's bond is a rare thing. That's why the saying is "mamma bear" Same thing though you are correct.

[@redknight8500]

Don't know how many people have also thought of this idea, but for Bioshock Infinite, I don't think it's never revealed WHO is in Songbird's outfit. What if that is another Booker? Seeing as, both the Lutece's and Fontaine had ready available access through the Lutece device to other dimensions. Fontaine would certainly find it poetic, I'm sure, to hire on another version of Booker (or several) to eventually become Songbird.

[@ledanoir1239]

Yeah but what does fontaine have to do with it

[@redknight8500]

@@ledanoir1239 Well, in the Columbia Universe, Fontaine Futuristics is the company that makes a lot of the super machines and vigors within the games lore. And Frank Fontaine used the multiverse machine to learn about these future technologies from the Rapture universes, including the Big Daddys. In fact it was Elizabeth and Songbird who were the first properly bonded "big daddy and little sister" which gave the rapture scientist who made the big daddies, Dr. YI Suchong, the knowledge of how to bond big daddies and lil sisters for the Alpha series. In short, Fontaine has to do with it because Fontaine A. Has access to multiverse travel, B. Knows about booker and Elizabeth relationship, and C. Is the creator of the Songbird.

[@synnamon_toast_crunch]

​@@redknight8500 i thought it was Fink who created the songbird not Fontaine.

[@redknight8500]

@@synnamon_toast_crunch Fontaine Futuristics created the Big Daddy and Little Sisters in Rapture. Songbird was basically a stolen product from Rapture by Fink, along with Plasmids. Modifications were made sure, so you can say that Fink did create songbird but Fontaine is the one who created the basis for it. I think I also wrote this comment in a blind haze haha so I probably meant to say Fink would have found it poetic to use another version of Booker for songbird.

[@dr.bright6272]

Having played Bioshock 1 and Bioshock 2 recently I'm of the opinion that the Rumblers and Lancers are the scariest and toughest Big Daddies to fight.

[@corym.m.3084]

if they ever make a new bio shock game, I hope the big daddies are more of a boss battle and more difficult to take down. they could make them more terrifying easily.

[@WiseFish]

Like the were in Burial at Sea then I guess? That was quite a hard boss battle. But yeah I agree, I’d wanna see that

[@AngelEmfrbl]

Bioshock 4, and a movie based upon Bioshock 1, are confirmed in production. The reason for the long gap between 3 and 4 is just they didn't want to make another Bioshock game without ideas behind it.

[@malcontent1119]

This is such a comprehensive lore video for such an iconic creature. Makes me want to bring Bioshock back up from the depths of my game library. Stellar content.

That would be interesting if true, they never did specifically state who her real father is. I imagine they scraped that as it might have been a bit overload. Better to have subtlety
