Once the player defeats a Big Daddy and captures a Little Sister, they get a choice: They can destroy the sea slug and rescue the little girl, but this causes the player to lose the precious ADAM, which is a currency that they use to buy upgrades to health, energy and their plasmid powers. They’re extracting ADAM from the corpses of dead splicers with giant syringes under the constant supervision of their monstrous, technologically-enhanced protectors, the Big Daddies, who serve as the game’s minibosses. The player encounters these implanted children, the Little Sisters, skittering around in the rusty, creaking underwater ruins. Luckily, competition for scarce ADAM was already breaking down societal structures and creating a Hobbesian bellum omnium contra omnes, so there were plenty of orphans for Rapture’s scientists to round up. They discovered they could exponentially increase a slug’s ADAM production by implanting it into the body of a child, at the cost of turning the children into creepy zombies. The abuse of this technology eventually transformed most of the people of Rapture into mutant junkies, but before that happened, their uninhibited pursuit of power led the Rapturites to perform some truly barbaric experiments.įoremost among these atrocities was the creation of the "Little Sisters." ADAM was produced by sea slugs, but the slugs weren’t making enough of it to satisfy the needs of Rapture’s power-mad gene splicers. Within this objectivist paradise, unencumbered by laws or ethics, Ryan’s acolytes learned to hack their genes and give themselves superpowers using a substance called ADAM.

It'll come up next to the harvest button. Some gifts have ADAM, or a plasmid, or hell.BOTH! If you don't have the stomach to harvest, (Which trust me, I didn't either. ![]() And as you continue to save them the cured little sisters will leave gifts for you as you continue through the game. She'll thank you and crawl back to Tennanbaum (The german scientist girl) through the little hole in the wall the Little sisters come from. You may get a lot less from saving them then harvesting them, but the Little Sister will be cured and will go back to a normal little girl. ![]() Whenever you get the chance to harvest or save, press save. ![]() Originally posted by D4RKS0UL:I just couldn't bring myself to do it - I know I'm silly - so how to get by without harvesting these Little B****?
