Irrational Games head Ken Levine has revealed that BioShock Infinite will contain far more dialog than the first BioShock. How much more? One level of Infinite has three times more than the original game had in its entirety.
The geometric increase in dialog is due to Levin's decision to have Booker and Elizabeth interact with each other and their world.

BioShock creator Ken Levine of Irrational Games feels "almost everything" he's worked on is a "descendent of that feeling" he had playing Ultima Underworld where it felt "like a real place."
His games are "really struggling to create a sense of place" for us to get connected with, he says. Levine has "no patience" with game designers who lecture others how they should make worlds.
