Demonic Spiders: Minerva's Den has the Lancer Daddies.

Crazy Is Cool: Gilbert Alexander was pretty awesome before going mad (leaving behind messages and robots allies to help whoever found him kill him, knowing he was about to suffer With Great Power Comes Great Insanity) but he still pulls off some cool stuff afterwards (such as singing the Fontaine Futuristics jingle at the top of his voice to prevent you from accessing a voice activated door lock, or hosting a live demonstration of Fontaine Futuristics products.Others find it to be a unnecessary cash-grab sequel that repeats too much of the first game to have its own identity. Contested Sequel: Some believe this game is a worthy continuation of the original, some finding it even better due to the vast mechanical improvements.In the final moments of his life, Poole forces Subject Delta to possibly kill 3 Little Sisters, and is reduced to a sniveling, pathetic mess, screaming that everything he did 'wasn't personal'.

Yi Suchong when the girl tries to stop his crimes, and, when Lamb escapes prison, Poole floods the entirety of Dionysus Park, killing the hundreds of residents solely to cover up how badly he's driven it into the ground. Poole sells off Lamb's daughter Eleanor to be experimented on by Dr. After gaining Lamb's trust and becoming the head of Dionysus Park, Poole anonymously betrays the woman and gets her locked away, after which he allows Dionysus to fall into anarchy while he wastes tons of money on himself. Poole gets into Ryan's good graces by ratting on Johnny Topside, getting the innocent man thrown into prison and turned into Subject Delta, after which Poole is sent by Ryan to infiltrate rising revolutionary Sofia Lamb's inner circle.

Complete Monster: Stanley Poole, who also has a small appearance in Rapture, is a weaselly journalist who once settled for covering up crimes in exchange for bribes however, after joining up with the likes of Andrew Ryan, he becomes far worse.

When it comes to ADAM gathering, it's all a matter of spamming Trap Rivets, Spears, Proximity Mines, and deploying Mini-Turrets (and maybe even utilize the Cyclone Trap and Security Command plasmids), and it's then just all a matter of waiting. This is even encouraged with the Drill Specialist Tonic, which prevents you from using anything but the Drill, Research Camera, Hack tool, and plasmids, but cuts plasmid costs in half to compensate.

Complacent Gaming Syndrome: The same dominant strategy from the first game also applies here.

Swap ADAM for melange, a different flavor of Applied Phlebotinum, and he's basically a Guild Navigator from Dune. Captain Ersatz: Gil Alexander is an enormous brown lump living in a tank and positively marinating in the Fantastic Drug ADAM.Brains Evil, Brawn Good: While the game is very liberal with opportunities to set up traps to outsmart your enemies, some players may simply prefer to play the game guns blazing without any ounce of foresight or thoughtful planning.Doubles as an Easter Egg as the sequence pays homage to an actual plasmid that had been planned for the first game, but abandoned due to it not only being impractical, but it would have allowed players to bypass large swaths of the game. After getting it, you're teleported back to where you started this madness, as if nothing happened. It teleports away multiple times when you try to collect it, forcing you to play hide-and-seek, before teleporting you to multiple points in the level, with the plasmid itself floating around chasing Splicers, eventually taking you to a dark room with statues basking in the glory of the Vending Expert 2 Gene Tonic.

Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: The hidden sequence with the Unstable Teleport Plasmid in Fontaine Futuristics.

The dual Big Sisters fought one level earlier are the real Climax Boss of the game (although there is also a very tough battle royale involving multiple splicers at the very end, that battle is not very difficult if one uses Summon Eleanor or even just has two security bots operational). It is also possible to quickly kill him by simply hacking a gun turret found in a neighbourhood room and then hacking a security bot nearby and letting them do the job. Heck, since you have the Summon Eleanor plasmid by this point, she can kill him for you before you ever enter the room. Even conventionally, the battle won't last much longer than 30 seconds. It's not an exaggeration to state that Incinerate 3 can One-Hit Kill him on the highest difficulty, in tandem with the hazards in the room (though this is unlikely). Alpha Sinclair, only has the benefit of a longer health bar, a triviality to anyone who's maxed out on their research of the Alpha series.

The Rumbler is objectively powerful, with its limitless mini-turrets and rockets, but much like a rocket turret, it's more or less completely shut out by the Telekinesis plasmid.
