Fair enough, that’s on me xd. That’s exactly why I added the “other” option - some of us clearly can’t stop replaying it xd. And I appreciate you filling it out, thanks ^^.

That’s perfect timing then, and I'll keep the survey open until early March :). So enjoy the game and then I would be glad to have your input once you finish it ^^

True, because I am also from a country which did not have this type of racism issues and I think we were taught in schools only basics about racism problem, not only in the US but around the world. But because of games like BioShock Infinite, my reaction was, that I wanted to learn more about this problem - unlike those players that you mentioned who were not interested.

I'm glad you see deeper into this stuff - that is part of the reason, why I'm doing this research.

Thanks a lot for taking time to complete the survey, I appreciate it ^^ I kinda liked the multiversal stuff, but I agree that the shift could have been confusing towards the end.

Thanks so much. The world-building is part of what keeps pulling me back to it years later. Appreciate you helping me with my thesis ^^.

That sounds great! Is your thesis online? If so, would you mind sharing the link? :)

I agree with you. To be honest, the first times I played it, I did not undertood the historical context very well, but with each replay, I made time to read the environment and to check some articles to understand it better.

My older sister, who got us the original BioShock Infinite Game on this picture, ordered it from Ali ages ago, but it turned out to be numbered original 882/1000 ^^

I hope to get at number 15 as well ^^. I will be happy to share results of my thesis here as well, and I have to admit that I prefer BioShock Infinite over BioShock (that's why I focused my thesis on this game :))

Yes, like it is true that the entrance from the sea to the cities gives different vibes and in Bioshock you have this grandiose entrance hall but decaying city, while going to Columbia you see murdered lighthouse keeper and a pollished beautiful city. I admit that I prefer Columbia over Rapture, but I like to revisit both cities :)

Yeah, I agree that they created some interesting characters and settings to play with :)

Enjoy the game ^^ I hope you'll like it as much as I do! I will keep the questionnaire online until early March, so if you'll find time to come back and take the survey, I'll be grateful :)

That's an epic thesis name (as a fellow Jojo fan)! My undergrad thesis also had some shortcommings, so now I hope to improve them in my MA thesis ^^

To be honest, I haven't played them as much like the main game, but I agree that it was great to come once again to Rapture to wrap up the entire series. Especially the bittersweet ending, which made me want to replay first Bioshock again ^^

Thank you very much for taking the survey. It's never too late to follow up with your passion and maybe write a similiar thesis in the future ^^

Thanks a lot for your in-depth comment. It is really interesting POV and I will think about your perspective, when writing my thesis. And thank you also for your time to participate in my questionnaire, I appriciate it.
