Good thread.

Aren't you easy to trigger.

Yeah until it turns out the blacks are just violent savages as well but I guess that would go against your outrage narrative
chill out snowflake

literally none.
The DLC even kills Elizabeth.
The racism is a little hamfisted, even though people never bring up the irish shit was real worse. The game had a few pockets of gems though like the potato girl skit.
>>MUH EVIL WHITE CHRISTIAN MAN
It was actually the opposite desu.

Not even close.
It's pretty bad, but damn. Have you ever played ANYTHING by Tale of Tales? Or some of those amazing artistic flash games like Every Day the Same Dream?
Infinite is nothing compared to those. Hell, I'd say fucking Limbo and Braid are worse than this in terms of pretention, and those are games I genuinely enjoyed.
>MUH SYMBOLISM
There is no symbolism. Or at least no important symbolism in the story.
>MUH STRONG WYMYN
It's a literal damsel-in-distress/daddy-save-me story. What the fuck are you talking about?
>MUH RACISM
While the game initially deals with racism in a very simple and naive way, it actually muddies it hugely later into the story. Which does not make it good, it's just that the message about racism in this game is actually very, very unclear and conflicting.

Seriously, this shit really mainly dissipates over the course of the story. It's such a clusterfuck in the second half that the whole white guilt thing just stops being a thing.
It's a shit story, sure, but most of your criticism are dumb and suggest you may have not even played it. Which... fine. It's not worth playing. But you also should not throw shit at games you had not played, about shit that does not really happen in them.

Not only was the story and narrative shit, they also had the gall to cram Rapture in there for in the end and in the DLCs.

You're just throwing this word around, aren't you?
>MUH STRONG WYMYN
Elizabeth was anything but strong, ffs. Even in the end where she's set on killing Comstock, she admits she still needs Booker's help.
>MUH RACISM
Yes Anon, racism was a thing in the early 20th century society. Pick up a fucking book and look it up.

The story would've been far better without the TWEEST.
