This game is amazing. I'm on the part where you need to supply guns to the Vox Populi. Those motorized patriots are big toughies, I can never shock them long enough to get around and deal damage.

As soon as I got the Hand Cannon, everything dies in 1 or so.
Loved the story too.

I absolutely loved the story and setting, but the combat was really meh for some reason. I hear Hard Mode is a better challenge, and I honestly know I'm going to have to replay the game at some point, since the story was just...so good.

Ok so I just beat it Jesus Christ I thought the whole "old Elisabeth" thing was the twist. The real one was so much better. I was wondering what "Infinite" had to do with anything for a while. The only thing is, aren't there going to be an infinite number of realities where Booker doesn't kill himself before the baptism? How does drowning in one stop everything from happening? Also they never really explain how Elisabeth got the ability to open tears, but I guess that doesn't really matter that much. Great game overall, I just wish they had stuck with the weapon system of the original BioShock games. It was a pain in the a** to only be able to carry two, and the weapon upgrade system felt diminished because of that limitation. Oh and the part where you go to Rapture was really f*** cool

They hint at one of the realities still existing where Booker doesn't get drowned after the credits. lol

Didn't they also make some reference to Booker also being Andrew Ryan? I remember Elisabeth saying "there's always man, always a city," but I didn't really get what that meant.

They're certainly AT LEAST related. Remember, in Bioshock they established that the bathyspheres could only be used by Ryan and his relatives. And Booker was able to use it.

Really? I thought everyone could use them. Wasn't Atlas/Fontaine able to use them? Also, weren't they supposed to be the general transportation around Rapture to be used by the public?

They were originally for general transportation, but after the big civil war they had, Ryan made it so only he and people with similar genes to him could use them.

Ok, I must have forgotten or missed that somewhere lol. Maybe Rapture and Columbia are basically the same thing, just Comstock made his city underwater in a different reality. Although their philosophies are pretty different, with Comstock being religious and Ryan being pretty secular.

Maybe they could explore that in one of the DLCs. I think they intentionally left it a little unclear, since I don't think they could decide if they really wanted to go full-on in saying that Ryan is just another iteration of Booker.
As a tangent, I feel awful that I didn't recognize God Only Knows in the beginning of the game, since I used to listen to the Beach Boys often. I didn't even catch on that they were actually doing music from the future until that one girl sang Fortunate Son...and even then I didn't notice until she got to the chorus, which blew my mind once I heard it.

Haha yeah, there's a Tears for Fears song in the credits that gets a 1912 treatment as well.

Also a DLC set in Rapture would be really cool. I think the little flier for the season pass said there's going to be 3 DLCs.
