A REDO of Infinite BS

What better plot device for such an insanely illogical story and setting ????


--- --- --- --- ---

Columbia Being People Trapped By Their Own Delusions in Rapture's Lunatic Asylum  :

WE (the Player) can see the Real View ( similar to Little-Sister-Vision-Off view of what 'The Crazy Doll House' really was in Persephone ). The inhabitants under the effects of :

  • Drug Effects
  • Mass Hypnosis
  • Dementia
  • Brainwashing
  • Self-Delusion
  • Asphyxia/Oxygen starvation


Any happy scenes are ALL delusions - In reality horrible actions and strange escapades are going on :

  • Fireworks are 'burning people'
  • Blathering Idiots walking about
  • Corpses, lots of Corpses
  • Cannibalism by the few remaining ( not new as Fink called his workers 'cattle' from way back )
  • Columbia raiding the surface and murdering any resistors


---

Rocket to Columbia - Sounds more like a euphemism for hallucinogenic drugs that Comstock/Fink was selling.

Pilgrim Rocket - Seriously THIS was their equivalent ( the writers came up with ) to the Bathysphere Descent scene in BS1. Is this some quickee thing they stitched in - How far back in the rewrite progression does THIS hokey idea go ???? Another example of SIMPLE MINDLESS COPYING from the previous game.[1]


--- --- ---

The Real Columbia  :

The "Particle" (Party) Pill for Columbia - it was all hallucinated (?) Comstock (Lil' Injun) gave Rosalind Lutece a dose ( some Indian Herbal Hallucinogenic ) -- She though herself her brother (What a trip !!), and she sometime dresses as a man (other times not). She also 'thinks' things are 'floating' around her, and that SHE made it happen -- That would explain ALOT of things ...

Booker had 'something' slipped into his bottle while he lay unconscious on his office floor ( or was it in a Flop House - It is hard to know if ANY of it was real ... )

All a 'Fever' Dream - or worse. Here's Booker's Brains On Drugs. DON'T DO DRUGS !!!


--- --- ---




Showwhatreallywouldlooklike

Hydro Therapy Room (where delusion minds are soothed...)

Dropping bodies into the ocean would be a way for Fink/Comstock/Daisy to get rid of inconvenient people.



See Also Lobotomy_Fun



A bunch of insane asylum-incarcerated Writer-Wannabees ( 'put away' by their relatives ) write a twisted and disturbing story about a Flying City ( and even start 'acting' out their creepy delusions ).


--- --- ---

The Hokum Particle :

Was called that by some US Senator hearing of this magical floaty crap from this Drug Crazed Comstock person who is trying to get the US Government to fund his delusions ...

AND THE NAME STUCK !!!

Just like "GIMP-PIGEON" for that weird batman thing idea which 'Looney' Comstock also claims to see all the time (that's like "Big Daddy" becoming the common name in Rapture for the Maintenance Cyborgs used to protect Little Sisters).

Yes, in The MMORPG the entire remake game ( as one Alternative ) takes place in an Insane Asylum where Comstock was sent after physically attacking that Senator ( the one mentioned above ).

LobotomyTradingCards


Jeremiah Fink came up with a promotional gimmick - "Lobotomy Trading Cards", which you got with each Vigor you purchased. Unfortunately it didn't solve the problem of each Vigor costing more than a typical years salary. When sold, they did though increase the instances of Insanity above the usual high level in Columbia. Sanitorium profits went straight into Finks pocket.


--- --- ---

A Place To Put Insane Writers (And The Delusional) :

"Villisca Axe Murders 1912" -- Another of Comstock's Little Parties ...  :

Lets namedrop every possible thing on Booker/Comstock from 1893-1912 - that's basically what the Infinite BS writers did ( to attempt to attach their farsical setting to real History ) -- No matter how illogical its was, or how strangely wedged into their story timeline it became.

  • RMS Titanic Sinking (1912) .. of course
  • The Great Chicken Blight of 1910 :
  • The Winter of 1898 and the Great Cattle Dieoff :
  • 1900 Galveston Hurricane ( 6,000 to 8,000 people killed -- Perfect for Comstock & Fink to swoop in for more 'workers' )
  • The Winterfresh Chewing Gum Massacre (Hoboken)
  • The Big Burn in the Pacific NorthWest 1910
  • "Great Merger" of September 1, 1911, the Southern Pacific created a new Pacific Electric Railway Company in vicinity of Los Angeles
  • July 24, 1911, American archeologist Hiram Bingham discovers Machu Picchu. Coca ( Erythroxylum coca

& Erythroxylum novogranatense ) needed for the Comstock Cola, and the Incas allegedly had a way to produce 20-30X as much -- "Drink Comstock Cola OR WE KILL YOU !!!" )

Look up what else happened since the takeover (Secession) 1902


--- --- ---

Surfing on Fresh Water ? :

Columbia's 'Beach' at Battleship Bay ( Oh yes, a nice pretty scene or 'normal' Columbia[2] ) is it Salt Water ??? Actually what difference does it make? Only a little when you ask : Where does the water come from ?

Unfortunately there is the fact that water (of any kind) starts to stagnate and becomes dirty ( like with algae and the bacteria that feeds on dead algae ) and becomes like smelly swamp water. REAL Ocean water is replaced with every wave on a real beach. But that cannot be so in Columbia. (( Its a pretty but stupid idea for Columbia ))

You dump it out regularly ? Then how does ALL that very heavy replacement water GET transported up to Columbia ?? Rainy Columbia we never saw, nor water collectors big enough for ANY of the City's needed water supply ( or for that matter how ANY other supplies GOT to Columbia ). Adding some rainwater to crap water just equals more crap water anyway. Street sewers emptying into Surfwarter is a sickening thought[3].

Oh, I forgot, such things are minor unexplained issues when compared to the Quantum Bullshit. If Magic handles that, then what's the big deal also having some miraculously clean water ? Just wave the writers magic wand ... again and for the fiftieth time.


--- --- ---

A Gentle Rain :

Think what it would be like for Columbia to pass overhead. Flush Toilets had been invented by then and how many of those would there be in a 'City' ??? Imagine the wonder of crap falling from the sky - from 15000 - 30000 feet it would probably freeze solid. Fink's Industries would be dumping their noisome waste directly over the side too ...


--- --- ---

A Flying Eden - a 'City' with a Gargantuan Industrial Complex ?? Cities Were Sodom And Gomorrah to These People ...  :

BUT When you look at Columbia and compare it to a real city - It has city trappings, but it is barely even a 'town' in extent ( even with the distant floaty bits ). ( Look at pictures of real cities, and the real things you see there which are called 'crowds', and even towns have something called "hustle and bustle" because people actually live/work there ).

Not so much a small town as a large Mental Asylum - G Metalious

Long ago, insane asylums had their inmates work ( instead of the places just warehousing them ), and they were generally self sufficient (There was a concern 'in those days' about too much taxpayer money being squandered, and an understanding the need to give inmates something positive to do).

Perfect - Fink's Vocational Enablement facilities ( BTW, That same ridiculous worker 'low bidding' thing should have been employed in producing Irrationals Infinite BS game. Though low-bid writers could hardly create a MORE problematical game setting/story ).

(( It might have been a good idea for the writers to do a bit of research about how things really work in the real world, no ? ))

SO they selected the Aspects of a 'City' (Again WHY ? - Cuz Rapture was ? [4] ), while the Reactionary/Religious tend to reject all the things that 'Cities' at that time stood for. That fact fell by the wayside ??? The writer's ideas were rather schizophrenic -- a bit too caught up in their 'justice warrior' delusions to work out/produce anything realistic ( or just resembling the things they though they were illuminating ). They did NOT produce 'reflections of America', just their own careless/disjunctive misunderstandings/ignorance.


--- --- ---

Frank L Baum's Solution  :

In the middle of Infinite BS, Elizabeth suddenly wakes up restrained in an Insane Asylum's therapy room, as the psychiatrist is preparing to administer her corrective Lobotomy. Elizabeth is in an Asylum because she had constantly suffered strange and terrible episodes of sickening fantasy, and often became criminally violent ( trying to drown people ) and self-destructive. Some little time later, once the procedure was done, her waking nightmares about "Columbia" ended forever.


--- --- --- --- ---


  1. Or of the existence of "Irrational Games State Sanitorium" ??????????????????
  2. The Nazis had 'resort'/'recreation' places too
  3. Old Secret - the canals of Venice ARE and Smell-Like a Sewer ... Not so romantic now, eh ?
  4. CUZ A floating miserable hayseed crossroads town - being all that Charlatan Comstock could realistically afford, OR maybe existing in a decrepit/deteriorating Show_City_Columbia --- THAT would just NOT be so 'Awesomelicious' for a pretty Shooter Game.

Fantasy ? ? ? I Andrew Ryan Reject This !!!

Is not the Player due a proper Sci-Fi game paid for by the $60 Sweat of their Brow ??? The Game Companies say " NOOOOOOOOO ! The players will eat whatever rubbish we set before them !! "

WHY DO I BOTHER ?

Because I WANT computer games to be better than what we typically get from the Game Industry, and perhaps by pointing out ClapTrap like BioShock Infinite, strong criticisms being voiced might serve to SHAME the makers of such substandard games, and MIGHT cause them to DO BETTER in Future.

-

I wont hold my breath that this will happen though.

Final Disclaimer : I am aware that various Fanbois think any kind of negative or different comments about BioShock makes me a "Poo Poo Head" ( in their minds ), and they feel fully justified in their 'Being So Offended' by my contrary ideas, and for their fervent wish to Silence anyone talking/thinking expressing such things ...

But I don't give a Rodents Rectum about such small-mindedness and slavish infantile infatuation with a game ( or its writers ), Nor for those who merely complain-whine out of their own Attention Whoring mental issues.
