Forums - Gaming - I finished Bioshock infinite yesterday...Anybody wants to enlighten me on the ending?(Spoilers)

I never thought it was going to have such an irrational ending.The name of the studio is spot on by the way.

 

FOR ANYONE THAT HASN'T PLAYED THE GAME, DON'T READ THESE STUFF. GO PLAY THE GAME. IT'S VERY GOOD IMO.

 

Soooo... Booker is actuallly Comstock right? and Anna is Elizabeth... who is that guy in the begining of the game? The dead one in the lighthouse.

He sold his daughter to Lutece? why? was Lutece the one he owed mony to? And then what happened. Comstock from another dimension took Anna to his dimension? Why? had he sold Anna as well and wanted her back? Maybe he trapped her into the tower to not loose her again.Or was it actually to fulfil his expectations?

Wtf were the Luteces exactly? Just scientists? Why were they appearing again and again throughout the game?

 

Anyway, share your thoughts with me.Cause I'm a bit confused.

What happens excactly when you take the baptism? You become another man? Does your face transform as well cause Slate said that Comstock was not in the wounded knee....Booker was.Did he not know that they were the same person?
Oh! and did anything happen in the begining of the game were you take the baptism?

How can both Comstock and Booker exist in every dimension.They are the same man right?

Mindfuck. I like it.



Heres a timeline

Idk man the ending left me more surprised and confused than impressed. I had to look it up on the internet to understand, and even when I did understand I didn't really care much because you're just shooting things most of the game and then they throw all the story details at you at the very end. 



LITTLE MAC

The dead guy in the lighthouse at the beginning is possibly a version of Booker who failed. Remember when the Lutece twins offer you the choice between heads and tails they seem to react as if they have asked you the question many times before and always got the same answer. They likely asked the different versions of Booker this question. The version of Booker you play in the game is the first and last version to succeed thus breaking the circle.



At first when you get to Rapture, I didn't expect that transition to happen and I was thinking (this will have the best ending ever) but then it became so complicated...Even though i liked it I would like to be presented with a more down to earth ending as well as this "Revelation".

Booker and Comstock are the same person.

Both Letuces are actually the same person.

Anna and Elizabeth is the same person.

In one timeline, Booker was guilty for all the wrongs he did and got baptised. At that point, at least one version of Booker (looking at parallel timelines here) became Comstock.
In Comstock's timeline.. Letuce (the female one) developed a time machine by mistake. Comstock used this and became quite powerful. It is in using the time machine, where Anna, second Letuce (male) and Booker finally come into play.

The time machine usually jumped into other universes, hence changes done in that timeline never affected comstock's timline. From using the time machine a lot, Comstock became impotent and in wanting a child to be his heir, he crafted this plan to steal one of his progeny from himself in another timeline.
Letuce contacted herself and planned this out. In some timelines, she was actually a guy.

The whole backstory is quite good. Read the link here. It gives a lot more information than i could even begin to type.

here it goes

booker is comstock.but they choose their seperate ways.elizabeth losts her finger in another world so she can travel between worlds.at the ending elizabeth kills booker or something bad will happen.i actually finished the game ages ago.so i dont remember the exact things. ;(



One of the best ending ever



Any game that has some sort of time travel is bound to have paradoxes. I loved the game though.



Yeah as others have said, the luteces are the same person. Something happened with them that comstock did I think which is allows them to travel between dimensions/universes anytime they want. Same with elizabeth. She lost her finger which was stuck on Bookers dimension so she was able to create tears to travel to other times, dimensions. I haven't played it for a while so I'm not too sure about the ending. It's basically a big circle that keeps going round and round, hence the song in the beginning, Will the Circle Be Unbroken. So basically will this circle that keeps happening with booker, comstock, etc. not be damaged and can go on without interruptions. That's what I got out of that.

And essentially Booker becomes comstock only when he takes the baptism. Which is where a new universe is created. The theory of multiverses is that whenever someone has to make a decision between two or more things, a new universe is created that goes on with a choice you didn't go with.

Also how many of the voxophones did you listen to? Although optional, they give you so much more story with them. You learn quite a lot from them.

I first had a theory that in booker's universe rapture was created and in Comstocks universe columbia is created. But I don't think that works out because Booker didn't act like he knew about Rapture.
