      Unfortunately one of the main critisism of bioshock infinite is that is really didn't go anywhere near so far to show the dark side of Americana and largely decided to go the "the opposite side are also bad extremist" weak angle. Well it played second fiddle to the silly time travel plot anyway, but I think the studio had a lot more daring ideas that were cut before the launch of the game. Atleast based on the trailers and gameplay we saw before then

    i understand wanting the see what the experts can deduce for themselves just from the game design and atmosphere, it's very cool to see what they can figure out just from that alone, but at some point they need to be given SOME context. then they can take those little nuggets and point out the examples in world, or how they're used to communicate something, or the things that don't fit in, or whatever else comes to mind. people can only make blind associative leaps for so long, especially when dealing with a sci-fi/fantasy setting

  • @scirrhia_kruden
    @scirrhia_kruden Год назад +2

    I liked how they picked up the themes of idolization of the impossible, of a fake nostalgic America that didn't really exist even then, and so this utopian vision is also impossible and unsustainable. It's trying to make clear that this isn't an actual utopian vision of America, but rather a play on one.

    I found this video insufferable to watch because the so called "Experts" spent more time talking about what they see in the world and trying to understand it than react to the actual architecture of the buildings in the game world. I can see both points of the argument where people wants these "Experts" to have context an understanding of what they are reacting to, I'm in that boat, and those that don't care about the context argument and just wanna see the experts reaction.
    Those of us who have played and understands the games feels a bit insulted by "experts" going into tangents reacting not to what they're suppose to talk about.
    The only videos where it feels like the "Experts" actually knows what they are reacting to is Jeremy- the Cop, Israel and Cameron- the soldiers, Tim Davis- the outdoors man, Jordan-the ER DR, Gemma- the Martial artist, and the ex Criminal and other related experts. I just feel the Architects React videos to be the worst ones
