Shawn, you are never going to see your brother again. How do you feel about that?

I left him to rot

CURT how far are you now? I've reached the uprising.

The autosave did that to me a while back. Now I won't quit unless it's right after I hit a check point and I double check the times. I really hate the autosave

Well I was having a good playthrough and planned to keep going until I needed to sleep, but the most recent fight triggered a migraine so I'm taking another break. I really hate this! I think it's because there were so many tears and I whip the mouse around constantly because I never seem to be able to figure out where the people killing me are.

The battles are getting more fun though. At least part of that is I finally figured out how to swap vigors. MURDER OF CROWS, I MISSED YOU.

Spoiler	+
Daisy is a bad person. Still think it was a bit silly though. I WILL SHOOT THIS RANDOM CHILD!!! The fight that gave me the migraine was a bit later though. I just went through some turnstiles after looting a bookstore. It was the fight right before that.

I forget to use my vigors a lot, but this fight I ended up stuck in a small area with a crankgun and that terrible heater weapon and no weapons to switch out in sight. Since both of my weapons are so slow, I needed the vigors. It made for a nice combo

Drrr @ 29/4/2014 15:07 Spoiler + Welp, time to go dig up Elizabeth's mom! This was the exact part I left off at. I thought it auto-saved as I received that mission so I stopped, but for whatever reason it didn't

I really hope it saved for me. I usually won't stop unless it's coming out of a loading screen, but I double checked the time on the last autosave.

I also realized something right before I stopped:

not a story spoiler but if you're a purist don't look i guess	+
When I was in the bookstore I found a recording that said there was some kind ofbutton behind a cash register, but I didn'tcatch which cash register. That was a while back and I probably missed it, and now I'm kicking myself. Not kicking myself enough to go through all the areas I just ran around in though.

I haven't played the first Bioshock (though I'm pretty sure I remember reading stuff about it on TVTropes) and I'm still enjoying this a lot. I don't think it's required at all

Not kicking myself enough to go through all the areas I just ran around in though. lol I found the same one and considered not going into the next area so I could go back and find it. It bothers me a lot when I miss stuff

I wandered ahead a bit and found another code book for a cipher, and I can't find the cipher. I'm sure I'll stumble on it soon since I'm finally supposed to be in the area where I found the code book, but it's going to bother me if I don't find it

I found the cipher. Yay

And now as soon as I go make more tea, I'm going to go play for a few more hours.

Just had the fight where

Spoiler

Curtis if you haven't gone into the graveyard yet, SPOILERS + Lady Comstock resurrects the giant pile of the dead in front of Comstock house. HOLY SHIT I SUCKED AT THAT. I finally bought all of the upgrades for the bucking bronco vigor and used that to keep the dead away while I fired at Lady Comstock, then ran and bought more salts every time I ran out. Still managed to die once in the middle of the chaos. How exactly do machine gun bullets hurt a ghost anyway?

Damn. Thats awful. DON'T TAKE ANY BREAKS. JUST PLAY TO THE END.

Oh kul, there's a little demo that plays if you leave to title screen up for a while

:( I have the most annoying bug in my game. For some reason I can't pick up lockpick bags. A few are fine but most don't give me the option to open them. Of course Elisabeth still goes HEY THERES A LOCKPICK; GRAB THAT LOCKPICK OVER THERE, but I can't!

Spoiler	+
Spoiler + At least she used to say that. Holy shit, what happened! Apparently there was a time skip. Also this asylum is extremely creepy! WHO DECIDED THE MASKS WERE A GOOD IDEA!? Especially the glowing eyed Comstock ones. That will not help the patients recover their sanity. I'm getting a lot of use out of melee and vigors now because I keep running low on ammo

My goal is to finish this tonight. I really hope I can because I'm not going to be home a good chunk of tomorrow and I'll be itching to play if I'm not done. After what just happened I'm guessing an end is near, but I could also be very wrong
