To all you modders out there!

I'm sorry to jump right into this conversation.

I don't find Bioshock Infinite to be a "must-play", because of the gameplay...
To me it seems like the mechanics have been used much before.
First person, guns, superpowers, and an AI-controlled sidekick.

Please don't hate me, because all i've seen is gameplay, and it didn't really get to me...


I find story to be really good, but there must be something to make the player, start playing the actual game, before getting into the story.

I'd like to bring up Ib here.
The mechanics are really simple. All you use is Spacebar and the Arrowkeys. The graphics are simple and with some creative puzzles and concept, it's interesting to play the game.
Then comes the story, which actually seems to be pretty good. In the start it's just the concept that gets to you, but later on a story starts to emerge and those 2 fusions together.
The music is nice too...

I don't know, maybe I'm just a hipster gamer...

I'd say a concept is pretty important, but not too advanced mechanics, and the graphics shouldn't be ultimately insane unless you're supposed to look at it, and not fight bad guys all the time. Then story will catch up to you if you start playing the game.
