This would make BioShock even more tragic

First Person Shooter mod that humanizes the dead

One of the things I like about BioShock (both I & II) is the sad little human touches in the game, such as the story about Masha and her parents. (Whom you may find, dead, in their hotel room after they discover that Masha is a little sister.)

Something for the developers to consider as they work on BioShock III (they are, aren’t they?)

Alltop doesn’t know what a first person shooter [wiki] is, but it knows first person funnies.

“So is it on?”

Voice from off-camera: “Let me check.” [camera shakes slightly] “Yep, you’re good.”

“Okay, so you might not guess this from looking at me, but I’m actually a real sensitive dude. I enjoy art, black and white movies, and listening to the jazz of the twenties and thirties. And I love the ocean.

“Obviously, I’m big into the body modification thing, so if that turns you off, just walk away. I don’t want to waste any time with a woman who wants to –quote– fix me. I used to be into shooting up, but those days are way behind me.

“You should probably know that my work keeps me busy. I have these kids that I need to take care of, and let me tell you, they are a handful. Not to mention all the maniacs trying to kill them.”

[pause]

“I shouldn’t have mentioned that, right?”

Voice from off-camera: “Don’t worry, we can cut that later. We should wrap this up, I think I hear some Splicers coming.”

“Should I mention that I’ve been sterilized?”

Voice from off-camera: “That’s a fourth-date kinda thing, man. Let’s see if anyone can get over the helmet first.”
