[up][up][up]True, they did.

I admired their attention to detail, but I feel like... it wasn't addressed enough for it to be actually relevant to the story.

Like... why was Daisy there at all? Just to give me more people to shoot at?

I mean... I didn't feel outright revulsion towards her revolutionaries like I did the Founders.

I mean FFS, the first thing they do when they discover who Booker REALLY is is take a ROTATING HOOK TO HIS FACE

um, I'm sorry, but I'd probably consider revolting under such a hilariously evil society

Fink, however, seemed the most sinister because... yeah... he felt pretty real.

Okay, yeah, I'll grant you it could have been utilised more. But what they had wasn't bad, there was just not enough of it.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

i think it actually hurts the game's story

because apart from, like, Fink, it doesn't really paint Columbia as the disgusting place it's supposed to be

it actually makes the Vox Populi seem worse than Columbia as the game goes on

What they had was negligible. They had no clue what they were doing.

If it was just in the background without an.. out of nowhere fight with the Vox Populi, would it really be much loss?

Like... Daisy is about as cardboard cut-out as you can get with that kind of character.

She's mad because she's oppressed. She's tired of it. She gets violent.

and ooohhhh nooo she.... decides to kill a child

oh that's so horrible

It's not like Booker DID THE SAME FUCKING THING TEN TIMES WORSE AT WOUNDED KNEE.

The game was outright manipulating me into thinking that Daisy is somehow as bad as Comstock, who is a raving, manipulative, power-hungry lunatic who murdered his own wife to preserve his lie

um no

Fuck you Ken.

If anything I sympathized with Daisy up until the point where the game decides

WELP SHE'S EVIL NOW

OH AND SHE'S GONNA KILL A KID

OHHH NOOOO

and I just found it hilarious in how slapdash and manipulative it was

Honestly, as much as I've bitched about the game

I enjoyed it

Though the story and gameplay didn't... flow together as well as the first Bioshock

I still think Bioshock is incredibly clever in many ways

Not really in... social statements, but in how it subtly relays story and how story and gameplay just fucking fit together seamlessly

the game is linear...

for a reason. The game has you by the balls from the start, and you only realize it near the end.

I'm starting to worry I'm making Sayaka (the regular one) too Sue-ish. Does anyone else get that impression as well?
