Big Daddy

I finally finished Bioshock on Friday. I have to say I think it was an awesome game, I am extremely happy I played it. Of course I ended up with the good ending. I saved all the little girls and never even considered harvesting one for the Adam. The ending almost made me cry and there were no regrets. I am like this with video games, I really do not enjoy playing an evil character. I have to actively work at it to do anything bad and I get this weird sense of guilt.

The theme however stuck with me. I think its because I have always felt connected to that theme. In the games I ran the most recent of which in my Project Hidden game were whispers (young girls touched by something greater) were protected by guardians. In a lot of my other games there was a theme of protecting children, especially little girls with end of the world powers needing protection by a large adult in other games. In real life I do not believe I would even blink to step in front of danger for a child I didn't know.

I am not sure where this theme started with me. Maybe I developed being protective over my little sister when I was young. Don't get me wrong, I would do whatever it took to take care of any child, but little girls seemed the strongest focus (no I don't think I have any weird perversions). Imagery of Big Daddy, or similar themes is pretty common in my desktop images.

I still am not really sure where this post was going except to say Bioshock was a good game and that I don't know if I can play Bioshock 2 (since the first ended so well), although playing a Big Daddy trying to find his girl does have an attraction.

Here is a clip of the ending, but it is a spoiler if you plan on playing it
