10 Video Game Characters Fans OBSESSED Over

In BioShock, you must explore an underwater city called Rapture, which is populated by dangerous drones and treacherous mutants. Even though the game received universal praise for its world-building and graphics, it was the tense atmosphere that kept players enraptured (no pun intended).

And there is nothing in the game that leaves you in a cold sweat more than encountering Big Daddy. With his hulking size, steampunk-like diving suit, and riveter arm, Big Daddy certainly makes an impression when you first see him.

And the second time. And the third time. In fact, encountering Big Daddy is something you never really get used to. Even when you've upgraded your equipment to the max, you always think twice whether you should fight or run when this monstrous brute starts lumbering towards you.

Even though Big Daddys are directly connected to the game's overarching story, players find themselves enthralled with these genetically enhanced creatures long before they learn anything about them.

BioShock and BioShock Infinite may have created many mesmerising characters but none of them had the same effect as the first time you came face-to-face with Big Daddy.
