Boy howdy am I sure glad we don't live in some dystopian society like in my video games. I mean can you imagine having a ruler who sees himself as an untouchable god

Who believes his land is the greatest country in the world despite its many MANY flaws.

Who wants to keep his city pure, and who sees foreigners as a "invaders" who must be driven out.

And refuses to hear any opposition, surrounding himself in droves of "yes men", despite the fact that much of the opposition is from inside.

And who wants to spread his vision of what the world should be to other places, whether they want to or not.

Who wants to erect giant statues of himself.

Where anything or anyone seen as "different" is tossed aside, while those who fit the mold of "perfection" are given better opportunities and advancements.

Yup, sure glad that I don't live anywhere like that.

Bioshock Infinite handmade gta style cover

[lulu2992]

Speaking of BioShock Infinite, have I ever told you about that time I made a timeline of the BioShock series?

Tumblr made the image smaller so I’ve uploaded the original here :)

It’s far from being exhaustive because the reason I drew this in the first place was to make sure I really understood Infinite (the ending, especially) and Burial at Sea, so only the most significant and/or pivotal events are featured here. I later added some stuff from the other two games and the Minerva’s Den DLC after playing them. However, the novel BioShock: Rapture isn’t included because I haven’t read it (and it seems it’s generally not considered canon anyway).

I made this 8 years ago (with Paint, haha) but very recently translated it and made some adjustments so I could post it! I didn’t check everything I wrote because it’s been a while since I’ve really thought about the lore of BioShock, so I decided to trust my 2015 self and assume she knew what she was doing :’)

I guess sometimes you just feel like drawing random-ish au pairing of characters you don't actually ship, just because of a nice ref (also because I love fem versions + find Robert x Booker neat + have a frien who loves 'em). Is genderbending a character with canonical genderbend a rotten work? Yea. Does it stop me? Nah. I won't think twice as I barely think once lmaooo

aaand a September doodles of the same au, yeah.

"You promised me a lamb," Comstock lays heavy accusation, and Rosalind, unwilling to bear it, watches it land impotently before her.

"A ram may do the job as well as a ewe," she answers. Robert's head tips as he takes it to be a hidden compliment. It is (affection), and isn't (fact).

"It was a daughter I saw seat the throne," Comstock persists. Rosalind refuses culpability for variables; did he not consider the possibility when her brother stood beside her? Still, there are other avenues to argue.

"Then raise him as one." Robert's mouth twitches. Comstock considers. Andrew becomes Elizabeth.

Been replaying BioShock Infinite, and I just beat the Finktown part of the game where you enter multiple tears to fulfill Daisy Fitzroy's quest.

Booker believes that they're just opening doors to new worlds and stepping through, whereas Elizabeth believes that she's using her powers to create new worlds.

However, looking at the animation at those moments and following cues from the game itself, it seems to me that Elizabeth is actually using the tears to alter the world they're already in.

That would fix a few plot holes, such as why do they never run into a version of Elizabeth in this world (because it's not a new world and there is no "native" version of Elizabeth), why the Comstock in the third world is never surprised to see Booker alive again with Elizabeth in his custody (because most of the game happens in the same world), and why Comstock acts like he's been opposing Booker since the beginning of the game when Booker and Elizabeth believe they only entered World 3 just before the game's second half.

That the Booker in this world is also a hero of the Vox is interesting considering Elizabeth's ability to alter the world based on her desires ("a form of wish-fulfillment" is how she describes it). Is Booker's new backstory a result of her wish that Booker was more invested in the plight of the people of Shantytown and the Vox after Booker had been vocally indifferent? Or, alternatively, is Booker painted as a hero in the new world because Elizabeth does see him as a hero (albeit an incredibly flawed one) for busting her out of the tower?

Or is it some combination of both?
