    Its all about immersion....?

    I thought this game was all about being immerse. Then whats the deal with the hacking system? Whats immersive about putting tubes in the correct place so that blue liquid flows through it?

    I dont get it. Why not something like cut wires and connect other ones or whatever? Why pick something so un-immersive as a puzzle game?

    its probably meant to represent you reconecting the fuel line pluss if you freeze the bot the water/fuel flows a lot slower

    It is a fun simple mini game. It gets a lot harder when the game progresses. There will be alarms in the bots that if triped, will set off the security system.

    It's a mini-game. I'm sorry, but that's even worse than saying item shimmer will break the immersion of the game. It's a mini-game, is it really supposed to be realistic? Common..

    Item shimmer is to help you see items without having to go right up to them.

    The mini-game...just feels like a mini-game, when it shouldn't.

    Think about it, you're surrounded by splicer's...you start hacking the security cam... lalala...oh a nice relaxing mini-game to take my mind off those darn pesky splicers...wow, I really like rapture, these security cams and their mini-games are so fun. Oh great, Ive finished the mini-game....lets get back to the game now...

    Why couldnt they have made it something following the rest of the game...it seems out of place tbh...

    It's a video game. It's not something to be so up in a huff about. I think it fits with the quirky nature of Rapture.

    I suggest waiting for the full game, when the hacking wont be as easy.

    Why don't you try that next time you're surrounded by splicers? Tell me how that works out for you.

    IT'S IN REAL TIME YOU TARD >.<
    Please get your facts strait.
