BioShock Infinite Ending Discussion [SPOILERS]

[andythegeordie]

I like the game, i like the story told throughout, i followed it along, i grasped the travelling through a multiverse.
(imho the game isn't time travel, but travel through planes of existence where time isn't multiverse standard just each universe is at a different time)

i just really dislike the ending, i hate the idea that after so much the fate of Booker De Witt cannot be changed... in a multiverse setting... where all possibilities and probabilities, and have, and will go on to occur...

something feels very wrong about the ending, I'm not sure what it is, but i have a strong gut reaction to dislike it. i think the finale felt a bit lame, the final chase for comstock (booker de witt reborn) was a bit of a let down when you get there, yes i understand its a plot point to help underline how horrific the ending is for booker.

the actual visual representation of infinite possibilities through the lighthouses was cool, but i disliked the lack of paths you could take though, i wanted to keep wandering and wandering through the maze of lighthouses to "choose" my own fate.

i feel the skill element was taken away, any element to imapct the story was taken away, yet you are forced to follow a path to rebirth then death. i understand this was to underline the fate of booker de witt, but i argue due to the infinite multiverse, there is one booker de witt going round smothering all booker de witts, by process of elimination changing the fates across the multiverse. so its sort of a self defeating thing this ending, atleast one booker would have been able to kill the infant bookers.

literally finished the game about 10 mins befor long post, hope you enjoy the read.
