I will say that this part of Infinite is pretty okay. A entire section of someone ranting about how someone else is taking credit for all the war crimes and genocides they actually did themselves.SelenicMartian posted:

I still don't know if its clever that Elizabeth's crying is obviously fake or really dumb that Booker couldn't pick up on that when I could.

 Booker runs after Elizabeth for 20 minutes, and then the level ends.

Now that I'm revisiting B:I through this LP is how shallow B:I is so far*. When I was 22 I was really impressed how much "commentary" it "had" back then  * I'm implying that it ever gets... not shallow, but I'm not sure anymore.

Jokes aside, that "Queen of Holland" crack that Booker makes always stands out to me as one of the weirder lines in the game. I wish I could find out what the process was behind writing it, but I don't want to research Dutch royalty only to learn there wasn't anything factual behind the line.

I suppose it may be part of the point but I kind of lost the plot when they hopped over to the other Columbia and Elizabeth warned she might not be able to bring them back my first thought was "If you can't come back to this Columbia then why do you even care about the guns any more and even if you can open another tear in the new Columbia how you would even know where it leads is "your" Columbia and oh forget it." Also there was that bit earlier where Elizabeth opened a tear to escape Booker and immediately got captured by some guards on the other side but Booker was still able to find her without going through a tear so that means some tears don't cross dimensions and how you would know which is oh forget it.

I think how tears work is that Elizabeth uses her power to merge the universe she's currently in with another universe. Normally she merges small portions of universes during combat and can undo them because they are small, but here she went for a big one that's affecting everyone and it's too large to undo.

Yeah, this part of the game makes the least logical sense, but I feel that both Lizzy and Booker are both flying by the seat of their pants and not considering second and third order effects. Especially because the effects of tear usage on the wider reality are not visible until they notice the nosebleeds.

I forgot that it was merging worlds, not simply moving between them. Which helps me understand how real people turn into ghost people.

I don't think Booker cares at all about what's happening around him, at least Jack and Subject Delta were silent player avatars so they cared as much as you did, Booker just goes "Yeah whatever" a lot.

Booker making extremely difficult moral choices. Funnily enough I also have a friend in a lab that also does a lot of work with mice but I'm fairly certain he would never consider cooking one for fun. Though that might be because he mostly works with the expensive mice, ones with extremely specific genes and traits. He might cook one of the monkeys he worked with for a while though. Those were (understandably) not pleasant animals to be around.

I can't stop making parallels to Last of Us. In that game, Joel put on a much more convincing "man who has seen poo poo, and is now looking to complete his mission at any cost" character than Booker. Given that the former was ostensibly (if not sincerely) working for the greater good, while the latter just needs to eliminate sa large debt. There are many more differences that are core parts of the stories that they're telling. But in Bioshock Infinite, it seems that Booker is just as in control as previous bioshock protagonists. Except that he is not mind controlled to follow instructions, but follows the most surface level obvious path to a goal. The more I think about Infinite'd plot, the worse my headache gets. Where did I put the whiskey?

Although that gets towards the slippery slope of whether we should be keeping any non domesticated animal in captivity. I just think that primates are especially bad.

People were discussing earlier how Elizabeth is being treated as a plot device rather than a person - oh boy, does the DLC have content for you! That being She gives up her de facto godhead status in order to save one (1) Little Sister. I guess that darn biological clock went off and she just had to save A Child. But hey, she does some gratuitous violence along the way. #girlboss I have no idea what the authors were thinking - honestly, the easiest explanation is that they weren't and accidentally reproduced the view of women that still resonates in society today.
