Reply to comment by PhxRising29 in So I heard you like sci fi survival horror... by Masspoint

Yes but you can class dead space as a third person shooter as well. They just don't do it because it's pure survival horror.

Bioshock is also a partly a role playing game, it's like with skyrim, you can play it as a first person sneaker, they won't class it as such (like they do with thief) because you have multiple ways of playing the game.

You're trying way too hard my dude. It's cool to love the game, it's a great game. It's just not a survival horror.

Depends on the settings you play on. Try the hardest difficulty with no vita chambers

I would even dare to say that they do it better in some ways, since you can use stealth.

You're making this more about semantics than about anything else, they made surival horror as part of the game, it is more than that sure, but that doesn't mean it isn't part of it.

So hence the title, if you like sci fi survival horror you can find it in bioshock.

Bioshock has vending machines which give ammo and health and respawning enemies that give money, meaning you can get an infinite amount, which alone means it isn't a survival game since survival games rely on finite resources.

well I don't mind debating it , and I know where you're coming from, but if you're looking for a game that classifies as sci fi survival horror, what would be the first thing that comes to mind.

For me it was this, and a part of that was also because it's also a masterpiece.

These guys telling you it’s not survival horror haven’t played through it on the hardest difficulty with no vita chambers

You're trying to class it as survival horror, but they don't.

yes they class it as fps, you what other games are fps?

almost every 3d game out there that isn't a third person shooter.
