Best Characters in BioShock
Andrew Ryan is a fictional character in the BioShock video game series developed by Irrational Games. He serves as the primary antagonist of the first half of the first BioShock and a minor character in its sequel, BioShock 2. I'm gonna have to say Andrew Ryan. The Big Daddies are awesome and fun to fight, but this guy is just plain epic. His personality is spot on. Definitely one of the best villains in gaming. He is the Bowser of PS3 games.
Just looking at this list made me realize how absolutely brilliant every single character is. It's amazing. I love this franchise. It's so hard to pick between Ryan the Lion, Cohen, the Luteces, Tenenbaum, and so many others.
But I gotta go with the OG libertarian genius.
Great back story and explains what happened throughout the game up to him.
Well, I loved Atlas, so I guess in a way I kind of love Sander?
I killed him and adopted his muse. The battle was absolutely extravagant.
Loved Elizabeth. Most beautiful woman in gaming history, and just loved her personality. I found myself really into the game because I wanted to protect her, even though she didn't really need it.
One thing is for sure: she is my favorite sidekick in gaming history.
Every time she opens a tear, I wonder what is gonna happen next. A new world, new version of me, of her?
She was so helpful in BioShock Infinite. And playing as her in BaS Episode 2 was an amazing experience.
Go Liz.
He is a genius, and his spliced-up form is amazing. I hope they bring him back somehow. I don't care.
I am mightily offended that the Lutece twins are this far down! They're so funny and charming, like the Cheshire Cat. You always want to know more about them, and you can't dislike them.
I thought they would be top 3. Their comedy is great, even more so after you beat the game and understand everything they were talking about throughout the game.
Great writing.
A notable character for her input on the idea of ADAM. She is a character that shows heart after she realizes that "her children" deserve better. She wants people to help.
She also gives a reward to the characters for saving Little Sisters. This can influence some players to have sympathy for the Little Sisters.
She's so cool and interesting! Her tapes were my favorite in the game! I love her so much!
Was the original hero and the hero that everyone needed. He was a fantastic story. Perhaps one of the greatest twists in any video game.
Great story-driven character with no known information about him, but you still wanted to know about him.
Jack does not talk a lot, yet I am compelled to say Jack Ryan is the best.
Okay, everyone is going to hate me for this, but Steinman is a really cool character. He is just a nutcase who is obsessed with perfection and beauty.
The encounter was really scary. Walking through dark hallways, walls covered in bloody pictures, a very upset ghost, and finally, you meet him, stabbing a live and conscious person, surrounded by three bloody corpses hanging from the walls. The operating room is filthy, and when he sees you, he pulls a tommy gun, for God's sake! He was the clear inspiration for the doctor and the groom in Outlast.
Brilliant character. He brought a great personality to the franchise. He's easy to relate to and is fantastic to watch grow.
Great character that has many twists and turns emotionally. You can relate to him easily.
Strong character that shows the will of family and would do many things for it. Also portrays everyone's wish from the first game to act as a Big Daddy, but with a story.
Greatest video game character ever.
Delta is my boy! Coolest Big Daddy ever.
Subject Delta really puts a twist on BioShock. In the first game and even Infinite, you are playing as the underdog, the one on the run. In BioShock 2, you are playing as one of the top dogs in all of Rapture. Enemies you once feared facing are now equals.
The Newcomers
"Holy S***" is what goes through my mind every time I see one. They're that awesome.
This character influences Delta in many ways, mainly family. This is shown when she learns from Delta what to do with the Little Sisters.
She is also a character that can change because of how the player changes the story.
Subject Sigma on his own is a blank slate. The twist of his character being linked to another character and learning who Sigma was through him was amazing.
To hell with the Big Daddies, this guy deserves father of the century.
