No there are enough boring games in the market, we don't need even more especially ones that copy Bioshock.

Arkane are great. I recommend Dark Messiah of Might and Magic.

Harvey Smiths name is on two of the biggest f*** up betrayals in PC Gaming.
Ultima Pagan and Invisible War.
Avoid at all costs. He hasn't been involved in a good game since he was a low level dev with no relevant design input.
Harvey Smith hated Pagan. He only started working on Pagan after it got released. When it got released, Smith wrote a list of 100 things he hated in Pagan and sent it to his boss. It somehow got to Richard Garriott, and he decided to put Harvey in charge of "fixing" Pagan.
As for Invisible War:

Not exactly the best post mortem, but he atleast acknowledged that Invisible War was worst then the first.
Thanks for this. I would have never thought to look for this. Really interesting.

ARE YOU SERIOUS??? This new school gamers are EFFING IGNORANT! MY GOD! Ken Levine and Harvey Smith (One of the Head Honchos at Arkane) worked together on SS2, which was the game that freaking INSPIRED Bioshock. Harvey Smith then went to work on Deus Ex, a game which took the same immersive, emergent gameplay principles and expanded on them. How can one of the original creators of this design principles (and by extention the same Principles that apply to Bioshock) make a "wannabe" game in a style HE (among others) created?
amen

STEALTH and pacifist routes, for starters. Sidequests and talkable NPCs to continue and it's way harder than bioshock.

Bioshock really wasn't a stealth game like this. It's funny how people draw comparisons based on visual aesthetic alone...

Not like Bioshock at all. From what I've played of it, this game is pretty fun and entertaining, unlike Bioshock.

it's much more like Deus Ex and Thief than Bioshock. Also reminiscent of Dark Messiah, one of Arkane's earlier games.

First video for the game I seen his left hand looked exactly like the Bioshock hand. Figured they just ripped the engine.
