@@blaster23456 I think he had a God-like complex. HE's the one that built Rapture, not God. HE's the one who was going to create a Utopia, not God, etc.
blaster23456 Reminds me of Empedocles, He was a philosopher from Sicily in 430 BC. He jumped into Mount Etna which was an active volcano Because he thought he was an immortal god.
TheBioshockHub He definitely had a bit of a god complex, in fact when you’re in Hephaestus he calls Jack a parasite looking up at ‘the face of god!’ pretty much implying that he sees everyone else as beneath him and himself as a god like figure.
I have a question that probably an oversight by the devs, why did they keep bees in rapture, like they were basically stuck in the apiary room in the farmers market, were they allowed to roam around Arcadia at certain times or something to collect pollen for honey?, also speaking of plasmids, the insect swarm plasmid, does it allow your body to physically create the bees, or does it only allow you to control bees that are already in the air
Well, in the game the bees just appear, though I am guessing that realistically you can just control them and they procreate with the queen inside of the beehive in the user's hand. They're most likely just there for pollination.
I just love the casual gameplay as you are talking and explaining things. It works very well, and makes it easy for me to pay attention. Keep up the good content.
Hi bioshockhub I really like your videos and this one was like the rest really good,but also thanks for telling us the backstory of Rapture and Columbia. Keep doing the good work
I always assumed Eve was refined/processed Adam that you would consume regularly in order to prevent withdrawal symptoms, once you've started splicing. The assumption is that ADAM cannot be consumed in its raw form and once you do consume a plasmid (i.e. Electrobolt) there would be no need to consume it again, so instead you just take Eve. Of course, there's no solid confirmation of this in the games, but it makes sense
This makes me wonder... How did Jack Ryan avoid the negative effects enough to live until his old age? He was loaded up with enough ADAM to supply a small army of Splicers, even in the Good Ending. I presume it has something to do with having Little Sister daughters.
To be fair Jack was genetically modified from the moment he was just an embryo. If I'm correct, technically he's only 4 years old but has the body of a fully-grown adult male. His genetic modification at a young age could be a factor into why he isn't mutated like most splicers.
Yeah, Devil's Kiss can't even melt snow. And I need to chuck three pr four of it to kill mobs on Hard, when I can do the same with two snaps of Incinerate
From your videos I found out that you could get a camouflage tonic. I never used the camera really. But since I'm playing survivor mode I'm giving it a try. Thanks for the content
5:12 Your right, where do Adam come from. They come from outside ocean. Those Adam are so powerful. When your run out of Eve, buy Eve hypo from vending machine will may useful but hacking first.
@@TheBioshockHub The guys who use physical heat instead of water. Who are they and what do they really look like before they became those hot, exploding monsters that they are?
I'll be doing my best moving forward. The only pictures/illustrations that were available were the Slug, ADAM Vial, and EVE Hype, which I put on the thumbnail. But I completely understand where you're coming from.
@@TheBioshockHub I would love to hear who and how someone come up with the Insect Swarm one. "Hey, you know how parasites are gross and stuff? Why not make a plasmid that give you parasites that you can throw at people."
What if Adam stopped you from reproducing? I can see that happening to the Splicers. Like when a male splicer ejects sperm instead of it being white it’s red... weird by the way and I’m not trying to be funny. 😂 Or if a male Splicer got a female Splicer pregnant when she gives birth to the baby, the baby gets heavily mutated and dies due to Adam again I’m not trying to be funny. 😂🤣 Just an interesting thought I had in my mind.
You're welcome. Too bad there there was not much information for it. Oh I REALLY would like to know do you think it could be possible to make any of the Plasmids in real life?
@@fatalwaffle1715 I wish there was more info as well. But as soon as more comes out, I'll be updating everyone. And honestly, I don't think there's any possible way of them existing.
That was really helpful, I mean I know how ADAM works, I just don't know how it processes. Thanks BioshockHub and I loved the video can wait for the next one.
Basically yes. And it isn't a spoiler, so no worries. You basically find out that Fink and Suchong shared work and research through a tear. While Rapture used the plasmids with a needle, Columbia had drinkable ones.
TheBioshockHub On top of that, Columbia used “salts” rather than the slugs. This difference was partially what caused the difference in the behaviors of the users of the substances.
hello comrade i have a question soo ive been playing bioshock 2 recently and i cant switch weapons like you do in your background gameplays would you kindly help me out with this problem? i would kindly apreciate it is ya help me out ;)
You can hold R1 if you're on Playstation to bring up the weapon wheel and you go to whichever weapon you want to use. Or, you can tap R1 to quickly switch to the next weapon. Sorry for the late response!
@TheBioshockHub I was thinking about where and when Bioshock 4 could take place. Here's my idea: a secret city built deep underground in Antarctica. which started construction in the late 1930s by the Third Reich as a fallback point in case of defeat. It housed some of the greatest minds of the era as well as around 100.000 German civilians. But in the following decades the city would expand and eventually through drilling and mining they discover pockets of a certain red liquid...Adam. Seeing the effect of this liquid the generals and scientists would begin mass manufacturing a new wonder weapon....Plasmids. That's all I've got for now:)
Oh what a fantastic way to start an Introduction to Adam and Eve, Jack's first experience with plasmids really shows the effects of "Genetic code being rewritten" awesome ! Also thanks !! Been waiting for this one for a while ❤
So the Little sister only regain Adam from the dead? I thought they regain but also feed the slugs to generate more with human supply of old „splicer“ cells
It was confirmed that the true source of Adam is a bio-mass that lives in a trench under Persephone. The slugs feed off of it, which is how they have Adam in them. You can even see the bio-mass in Bioshock 2, and its a bright glowing light.
Kind of. Columbia interacted with Rapture somewhat, the most of which was Vigors and such by refining Plasmids. Songbird was modeled after the Big Daddies; but it was built for flying, instead of swimming. Songbird is a Big Daddy in the loosest since.
Yo I know I can't post links to support sites because that's kinda rude but I wanted to notify you idk if you knew but there's a site called ghost story game dot come you need to check out has tons of bioshock stuff I just found it and am excited once I start work again I'm definitely saving up for the stuff and once this pandemic goes away because more then likely shipping Will be delayed
Funny how a city built without religion revolves around it so much. Adam and Eve, and Rapture is a religious event in which god takes those who will go to heaven.
What i dont get is why there are little sisters and not little brothers or both? Does the gender of the child play a particular role in adam production?
Couldnt someone just use EVE instead of ADAM? Like the way I understand it, ADAM is the type of genetic manipulation you want. Whether that is lighting, fire, bees, strength, etc. and eve is what help you recharge or scratch that addiction. like if a person if addicted to cigarettes (adam) they would just pop a zynn (eve) to scratch that temptation. But it makes you wonder why there so many Eve needles all around rapture like scattered around.

Plus a lot of places are named after greek mythology
I think that was to poke fun at Christians

Columbia's Vigors don't seem to have the same negative side effects as Plasmids. Then again, they're also not quite as powerful as Plasmids either.
They were supposed to, but the concept was cut unfortunately.
Yeah, Devil's Kiss can't even melt snow. And I need to chuck three pr four of it to kill mobs on Hard, when I can do the same with two snaps of Incinerate
I think they were new enough that the bad side effects hadn’t become obvious. I think the lunatics in Comstock House are the resulting splicers
rocketprime But the over drinking side effects are worse.
Don't vigors use 10x as much ADAM to create though? With that amount, the effects of genetic deterioration wouldn't show for a long time.
If i went to Rapture, I'd want to have the Houdini Plasmid to get around the city safely to evade Splicers haha!
