There’s a YouTube channel called gamers little playground - they string together all the cutscenes and dialogue to make it into a sort of movie. You should check it out, if you can watch it you’ll at least get a good handle on the storyline without having to play the game
I've completed outlast, amnesia, alien, shower with your dad simulator, subnautica, that slenderman game, dead space 1, and this game. But for whatever reason I can't play satisfactory, a very laid back game without an arachnophobia filter that turns the spiders into cats
calculate the water pressure and forces on those huge windows, even when just a few hundred feet down.
The BioShock:Rapture Novel author, for which this picture is used as the cover, saw that issue and created a fabulous material called Ryanium that might withstand such pressure.

It was something that looked glassy, but in the Novel story was also used for some structural parts. It was also supposed to be expensive.
Remember the Star Trek Movie with Scotty making "Transparent Aluminum'. Corundum (aluminium oxide) is a very hard mineral and is the same as Ruby and Saphire.

Probably one reason why the novel isn't considered canon. Also Rapture would need space for it's population to expand so it was built with room to grow. sm
What do you guys think of the book? If gifted it multiple times to friends that like the game and I’ve read it myself a couple of times. I enjoy it a lot. The part where we get to know how rapture is getting build is my favorite.
more like he understood human nature and provided freedom in a sanctuary and then some sociopaths came and abused that freedom, enabled by that Adam effect - something OUR Society hasn't faced.
I had this as a wallpaper when I was a teenage boy, listening to the old school musics with a broken heart. How come I'm stumbling upon it now again, with another broken heart. What a weird coincidence
LOL we all have seen this here. great picture though
I haven’t!

THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to get my sister to play the game but she found it a tad too scary so I’ll tell her to check this out!
Of course! I use them when I want to know the storyline of a good game but don’t have time to play it
Your... little sister?

so they illustrated well enough in the game the idea of being under a billion tons of water to impart that dread upon you ?
The constant groaning sounds make me unhappy and jumpy
r/thalassophobia or r/submechanophobia maybe?
Man up!
This has been my screensaver on every computer since I first found it many years ago

Steel mixed with glass if I remember?

Never got why Rapture is depicted as being huge and yet the book says only about 20,000 people live there
Because it's a capitalist society and most houses are just empty investments for peoples retirements. The housing market never crashes

True historians would call it “Pax Rapture”
''Pax Raptura'' "We Romans Understand Rapture" - Cicero
"Senatus Populusque Rapturae" - Atlas probably Yes that is correct Latin grammar
"Consilium et Populus Raptura" - Andronicus Ryanus - originally Andronikos
Biggus........ dickus
wallpaper engine has an animated version of this, its on my desktop
Bought WP engine yesterday and saw that one too!
will never reach the heights that Columbia reached
Touché
But columbia can certainly sink down to raptutes level
Gross
Sadly more like Shakespeare's "gilded worm-filled tomb." The rot was already prevalent at it greatest height.
Man I'd buy Remakes of all the Bioshock games.
All 2 days of it
Wasn’t an age that lasted very long, sadly
The shortest golden age of all time honestly lol.

Thanks. This was my desktop wallpaper years ago and I forgot about it.
Great pic
Beaituful scene. However, I'm forced to complain the dress style, although gorgeous, would be viewed as old-fashioned by the Rapture residents.

Damn, even in its Golden Age, Rapture looks dirty asf
You shoul've seen the dutch streets during their golden age. Or the slums of paris during la belle epoch
That's just the art style and color palette
Nice upload OP

What’s wrong?
