>By killing me I proved you have no free will, I win hahahah-ACK!
What the fuck was his plan here?
>>
He's nyot wrongsy. By unalivingu him you've prowoven you're nyo better
>>
>>724634743
>if you kill your enemy they win!

lol
>>
idk, guy was nuts. wanted to go down with the ship i guess
>>
>>724634806
what if your enemy's goal was to get killed
>>
>>724634536
Refusing to accept defeat at the hands of Fontaine, he wanted to be in control of his own death.
>>
>>724634536
He went out on his own terms
Also he was fucking bonkers, like most libertarians
>>
>loses control of his own city
>uses you for a roundabout suicide
just a bitter dingus
>>
>>724634536
>I created Rapture so anyone could benefit from their personal effort!
>noooooooooooo Fontaine stop beating me at my own game with your supply and demand reeeeeeeeeeeeeee I'm gonna seize your assets!
>haha, if you cave my skull in with a golf club I will prove I'm superior to you, because you cannot le choose!
>ooops guess I'm dead and you'll live for another few decades as you choose to be a good dad and rescue the little zombie girls and turn them into trad daughters
Ryan was a bit of a retard, and both Lamb and Fontaine dabbed on him hard
>>
>>724634536
he is a petty bitch he knew he lost be he tried taking you with him
>>
>>724638564
Fontaine was a union commie who created a fishing union to upheave Ryan's hyper capitalist society. Levine wants you to think rapture died on its on sword, but once again it was subversive commies
>>
Basic free market retard when he's on the losing side of the free market.
>>
>>724638332
Ron Paul is the only libertarian I can think of that doesn't come across as a total lunatic in his personality.
>>
>>724639178
Almost as if hypercapitalist societies are so fragile that all it takes is a single conman to collapse them.
>>
>le libertarian bogeyman
>>
>>724639368
y... yes?
>>
Andrew Ryan, and by extension the Rapture experiment as a whole, wasn’t a true believer in Objectivism
>>
>>724639362
>all it takes is unionizing a population of drug addicts and killing tons of people
Meanwhile communism dies by existing
>>
>>724639368
Lolberts may seem irrelevant but Milton Friedman and the Chicago School are largely responsible for American and British economic policy since the 80s.
>>
>>724639521
What is China?

>but China is le capitalist!
Oh cool. The I'm sure you'd be thrilled if your country adopted all their economic policies.
>>
>>724639521
So does libertarianism. It's yet another ideology that worships a simple solution, claims its problems are not really problems then looks for someone to blame when these problems collapse it.
>>
>>724638332
because dying in a hospital bed while your slow drawn out death is siphoned for profit is any better
>>
>>724639592
>what is China
A failed state in perpetual collapse
>>
I replayed Bioshock 2 recently and imo Lamb was a better antagonist than Ryan, she felt a lot more present
Also her audiologs are very relaxing for some reasons
>>
>>724639521
Surely the mass of broke drug addicts and market for contraband that Fontaine took advantage of had nothing at all to do with Ryan's actions. It was just a libertarian paradise for everyone until one guy made the entire foundation spontaneously rot out from under it all on his own.

... Do you have something in your mouth?

Keep telling yourself that as they wipe the floor with the US by every metric. You retards have been prophesizing this bullshit for well over a decade.

Cope and dilate.

>VENESUALAN DRUG RUNNERS DESERVE DUE PROCESS FUCKING DRUMPF!!!!
you sure about that, brah?
>>
>>724639592
The only reason China has any power in modern times is because all the countries in the world decided to move their entire infrastructure and factories to China due their cheap slave labor. That's all China is. A slave nation.
>>
So why was Comstock completely ignored when he was the Ryan-like figure of Infinite? Was he really THAT boring?
>>
>>724639850
it's not his problem, he won
you not caring is also not his problem because that was never his goal
>>
>>724640017
As a South American I can tell you Venezuelans deserve nothing more than a nuclear holocaust.
>>
>>724640037
Incoherent storytelling isn't compelling. Ham-fisted racism is boring. Dr Who is for fags.

In early to mid 2016 I watched thousands of bots shills and bad actors astroturf libertarianism, a sect that no one had even ever heard of or really cared about, to a highly politicized part of the right wing.
Did anyone else see that too
It was fascinating
>>724640037
Infinite is all kinds of fucked up and unfocused. Not even the creators knew what they wanted to do with that game they just made it up as they went along and hoped it worked.
>>
>>724640017
I'm talking personality not positions. Though he's absolutely correct here, like he is on every foreign policy issue.
>>
I wonder what ideology will the next bioshock focus and criticize
I hope it will be original and not just a retread. there's potential with many more
>>
>>724640172
Libertarianism died instantly with the rise of Trump. Every lolbert of note sucked his cock or faded to irrelevancy.

Handily one of the dumbest fucking games I've ever played
>>
>>724640037
Yes. And he was boring by design.
They couldn't have him make big grand speeches or have him be project any sort of charismatic presence like Ryan because his imperialist ethno-nationalist ideology is highly problematic in the current year.
If there was even a 0.000001% chance the player might resonate with what he says then it would be a disaster.
>>
>>724640194
To sum the current ones, the games explore the extreme variants of
1: individualism
2: collectivism
Infinite: traditionalism, anarchism (a little with one subplot)
>>
>>724640194
Anarcho-Tyranny?
>>
>>724640492
This and the sheepish racism was silly
>racism is not only legal but encouraged
>Philadelphia 2025: damn niggers ruining everything
>Columbia 19XX: Those dark skinned boys or should I say <looks left><looks right>m-m-monkeys....
>>
>>724640659
It makes perfect sense since Columbia is made up of upper class whites. Elite whites are never openly racist. Blatant racism is white trash behavior.
>>
>>724640194
It'll be nazis
That's it. Just american nazis who took the white house in a presidential race while the poor patriots of the losing team could only watch and cry as it all collapsed.
(You will be forced to notice all the good guys are brown, ir women, who all talk with funny foreign accents but are apparently still americans in setting)
>>
>>724640615
I hope it won't be nationalism, it work in some games but it be extremely safe and boring for Bioshock
the first game did well because it explored something that was less common at the time
>>
>>724640884
>he really thinks this
Uppercrusters aren't trashy racist but they're racist all the same, you think plantation whites at their white afternoon Tesla tries aren't calling blacks niggers? That's a fucking laugh, remember 90% of the games spoken dialogue is in personal audio diaries....
>>
>>724641045
>Tesla tries
Teaparties* wtf
>>
>>724641223
Its okay anon.
We all already know Elon is a time-traveler.
>>
>>724641279
I know /v/ would have a shitter but it would be very funny if there was a game where a time travelling racist reverse-flashed falseflagged black people in a way that made them look bad
>>
>>724639756
Any day now
>>
>>724638564
>Libertarian high trust societies require people who can be trusted and engage with society in good faith
The logical through line is either advocating for a society that's Fuckhead-proofed, or a cleansing of the Fuckheads.
>>
>>724638564
His ego turned out stronger than his principles
Its like all deep and shit. And THATS deep because they are like DEEP underwater you know
>>
>>724639178
He was also smuggling drugs and other shit, there was also the religious group using religion to shit all over ryan as well, they basically came to this place, proceeded to get traction and through reactionary means and benefit themselves only to fucking die in an underground SHITHOLE with 0 way to protect themselves or repair the place. They killed Rapture for 0 reason thinking they could control it.
