  • The timeline and universes of Bioshock are complicated and confusing. The story of Rapture and Andrew Ryan and the story of Booker Dewitt and the floating city of Columbia are connected in a complex interwoven story through space and time.
    In this video, I have created a complete chronological timeline for Bioshock so that it easily makes sense. How are the universes connected, how do their stories end and does this timeline give any clue to where the new Bioshock will be set?
    This is a compilation of the three part Bioshock timeline I posted over the last few years - with the algorithm not altering people of the new parts, I thought it would be best to put them all into one long video!

    I do often wonder how Rapture would’ve turned out had they had access to Vigor and Salts instead of the Plasmids. While they still did cause hallucinations and some cosmetic changes to one’s arm, it was a drastic difference from the insanity and disfiguring alterations of Plasmids.

    • @mx338
      @mx338 2 года назад +115

      At least in writing I don’t think things would have turned out differently, the series criticises the idea of free market capitalism as inherently flawed, it would have just been another drug or something else that would have brought down the order of the Rapture.

    • @IlNamelessKinglI
      @IlNamelessKinglI 2 года назад +141

      In Burial At Sea 2 its explained that Plasmids, Big daddies, Vigors and Songbirds were made by Fink and Suchong. They comunicated via the portals. 1 single Vigor costed 10 times more Adam to make compared to a Plasmid. Thats why very few people use Vigors in Columbia but everyone used Plasmids in Rapture. Plasmids in Rapture were "more affordable". Also, most people in Columbia didnt really like Vigors, probably due to their religious mindset. The obvious flaw with the Lore is that when you visit Fink's Building, you see a ton of Vigors being made, wich is counter intuitive when you look up the reason why Lil sisters and daddies were made in the first place. They were made because there wasnt enough adam and they needed to harvest it from the dead bodies. Unless Fink got his own Adam from other universes and not from Ryan/Suchong/Rapture.

  • @JabamiLain
    @JabamiLain 2 года назад +379

    I think people underestimate the importance of reality transition in "BioShock: Infinite" and the saga as a whole. Why ? You see, throught out the game, Elizabeth explains she's not sure she's bringing them to already existing realities, but rather creating universes that attend to her needs and wishes. Something that might back up her theory is Comstock's voxophone, in which he questions himself what happens to the sinner he left behind after the baptism, since water's purpose isn't to destroy, but to wash away. If we take this voxophone in a literal sense, that means that when Comstock was baptized, a paralel world was created in order to house Booker DeWitt in it (this might also explain why his death erased only Comstocks, because while Booker was washed away to new realities, Comstock was drowned). If this is true, that means Elizabeth is the embodiment of everything "BioShock" represents. How when you're unhappy with the world, you create a new place that fits your vision. The importance of a father figure in a child's life. And the child's growth throught exposure to the world's corruption. I think "BioShock: Infinite" is far deeper than most people realize. But to try and truly grasp that depth, like Elizabeth, you must decipher the codes and lockpick the forbidden areas to gain true understanding of how the game truly works. I have faith and love for this game, even if I agree Rapture is better, and you can't turn my love into hatred.
    There's always an idea. There's always a flawed world. There's always a womb of water. There's always an individual who wants to find his time to create, and his time to destroy. And everything starts with a lightouse (or a sea of them).

      Hey, if you don't mind, I've got one question for you. Who do you think that it was who visited Comstock ? And what do you think it was her agenda ?Remember, Comstock is still Booker, simply amplified to his worst. And considering Booker's comments regarding Rapture and Columbia, it's pretty obvious Comstock could never have thought of creating Columbia alone. Someone had to give him the idea. And if we take into consideration that Rapture and Columbia are twin realities and the theories saying that Eleanor is Elizabeth reincarnated (in another time, and another place), that means whoever visited Comstock, had an agenda for Anna, and the cities were her baptism to prepare her for said agenda.

      Infinite was the only game I ever played in the series, and it holds a soft spot in my heart because I sympathized with Elizabeth. It's hard to please an abusive parent, and its ever harder to escape their brainwashing. What you said about father figures was spot on. Old Elizabeth is a direct parallel to that potential of righteous evil in Booker, physically realized in Comstock.

The Christian Bible of today has a large amount text full of bloody and gruesome acts of conflict. Often commanded by the big G himself. So it wouldn't be hard to create a bloody society that pretends to be heaven, but really it's just hell in the sky.

      Well, we know Booker has the vision of the part where Old Elizabeth destroys New York way before he actually gets there, so maybe from the endless Lighthouse Sea, those memories bleed across each other. So if Comstock saw Old Elizabeth in a Dream bled from the "future", then he would work to achieve the "dream" he saw.

    Absolutely fantastic video. It feels like the puzzle is now complete, everything put together and all pieces in the place where they're supposed to be. It all makes sense to me now, where there were initially some questions left after my first playthroughs of the games.
    One thing I've noticed as well is that while watching this brilliant summary, you could have never guessed that all of these games were first person shooter video games at their core. That's how rich and strong the story is that it can completely stand on its own despite being a video game that also needs to have fun gameplay mechanics. Really fascinating stuff.

    As someone who isn’t a gamer except for a few titles here and there, my entire experience with Bioshock has been watching my roommate play it a few times. I appreciate this video and am currently on my second watch-through because it’s a fascinating story even without the gameplay and I appreciate that you aren’t interjecting unnecessary opinions and standard overrated RUclips hype. So thank you. Maybe someday I’ll actually play the game since it seems like it would keep me busy for a year.

    I played these games as a kid when they released (which was an interesting choice on my dads part for letting a 12 y/o at the time play this series lol). I remembered very little of the nuances of the plot; however it sparked my love of detail oriented stories. I remember being fascinated above all else with the world building both in terms of landscape and plot, even if every story detail didn’t fully sync up in my brain.
    This video gave a recap that was not only thorough, but was clearly created by someone who loves the source material and world built within this universe. The original cinematics you created were an amazing touch as well!
    Thank you sincerely for bringing this to life! ❤
