You can say that I didn’t beat it fairly, be my guest. To be fair I don’t remember how I dispatched the handyman in the factory. I preferred to stay on the run and only fight the handyman when I could stun him. The handyman there spawns only when you get near it in a small area so escaping it is near impossible. The only area where this didn’t go well was at the end of the Fink factory level. When you do play your 1999 mode try to remember when and where the handyman will spawn and do your best to kill as many enemies as possible before engaging it. The handymans in 1999 mode are some of the hardest challenges in the game. This strategy worked well in 1999 mode, except for the handymans… I would typically stay back in a battle and try to get head shots on my enemies and use the shotgun for when I was rushed. Of course, this had a lot to do with my play style. It pleased me to find out that these weapons were perfect for 1999 mode. When I started 1999 mode I found these weapons as soon as possible. If there was a bolt-action rifle besides the sniper rifle (low max ammo), I would have used that. I did this because in games, and in real life, I prefer using powerful weapons instead of quick-firing weaker ones. When I played on normal difficulty I used a carbine and a shotgun as my weapons. So, what was playing under this mode like? Well, I’ll tell you. You have to find all your supplies from the environment and from Elizabeth. To do this you must play though 1999 mode without purchasing anything from the Dollar Bill machines. If you are going to play on 1999 mode I would recommend going for the Scavenger Hunt achievement. Coming from someone who was able to get through Dark Souls relatively well solo (besides O&S, I’m not that good), 1999 mode was challenging yet very possible. Irrational Games designed 1999 mode to be more challenging. I would not advise 1999 mode as a first play through. This review is designed for gamers who have beaten BioShock Infinite and want to know more about 1999 mode before committing to it for another play through. I will not go out of my way to avoid spoilers. (Disclaimer: This is a continuation of my BioShock Infinite review.
