Tenkai Nankobo, is strongly implied throughout the game to be Samanosuke Akechi, and Arin the mysterous nun is implied to actually be Ako.

It's confirmed after the credits of the game.

The ending is intentionally made to be like that. My earlier discussion with Rbz I said that the ending involved Schrodinger's Cat, if you're familiar with the experiment.

The experiment involved a Cat, a box of Radioactive Isotope and some good ol' fashioned Hydrocyanic Acid(HCN). Without much elaboration and bare-bones, this takes place in an non-visible environment. There's a chance the radioactive isotope doesn't decay, therefore the cat lives, but there's always a chance it does decay and it kills the cat. But because you can never open or look in the box, the opportunities can be argued they happen simultaneously. Therefore the cat is alive, and the cat is dead.

Therefore in the end of the credits, that particular scene. We'll never actually know if the baby was there or not. There's evidence that she is in there, but there's evidence and logical reasoning why she shouldn't be.

Right... I didn't understand that rowing scene. I assumed they were being smart-asses like they've always been, and I was right; exception I didn't get the joke that time around.

Also, I did try to take a swing at Robert in the bar, her flaunting only made my motivation to hit him even more enthusiastic. All in vain of course.

Comstock, who hired Robert to do a job decided to kill both Robert & Rosalind after the abduction. This was caused by Comstock's absurd paranoia that he thought the Lutece's run into every Nick and Nancy and spread the word that they stole Elizabeth from her true father in a different universe.

What's to say Robert, or the Lutece's for this matter, aren't owned some payback at this point. Of course, Robert reemploys DeWitt who recently lost his memories of his daughter in order to reclaim what's rightfully his.

The guy that hired you to do a job decided to kill you, because he was so paranoid he thought you'd run into every Nick and Nancy and spread the word that you stole his daughter from her true father in a different universe.

What's to say you aren't owed some payback. Of course, you rehire the guy who recently lost his memories of his daughter in order to reclaim what's rightfully his.

The mastermind can't possibly be Lutece though, why?

Rosalind, the Comstock version of Lutece was extremely and heavily funded by Comstock to begin with. Why does this matter?

Elizabeth completely eliminated the events of Bioshock: Infinite from history. Therefore, Lutece never was funded, and they never completed their research likely.


I find it ironic that after being baptized he became even more fucking insane and paranoid. He performed worse crimes than his 'sinful' side ever did.

When you put it that way, it seems to make more sense. We were never granted the name of his late wife, all we know is 'Anna' was the name resonated in his head constantly.

Yeah, I suppose you're right there. Whether his wife's name was really Anna or not is a bit out of reach to guess and at this point, completely irrelevant. I don't know if naming my daughter after her mother who died of childbirth would be a way of remembrance or a chance at bad luck.

Robert existed in DeWitt's world, Rosalind *technically* didn't. Robert was the client who technically rehired DeWitt to 'bring the girl, and wipe away the debt', even though he's the one who took her in the first place. So they're presumed dead in Comstock's reality, but not in DeWitt's.

Whenever you were sent back to 'the room', the one where the man was shouting 'bring us the girl, and wipe away the debt!', it changes a little I believe. One of the times you go back, the table has many gambling tickets for races, and often, the room is littered with beer bottles.

The paranoia of debt had to accumulate somewhere or else he would never had sold Anna to begin with. You know, the whole point of the game.

To my knowledge, Anna DeWitt was the name of his late wife, who died during childbirth. He said he had a dead wife at one point of the game. He was also shouting Anna when the baby was being transferred between realities during that one memory I believe. I could be wrong, the ending isn't that fresh in my head, too much mind-fuckery, time-travel and dimension traveling.

When I said his daughter didn't exist, that was poorly worded. I should've quoted non-existent.

When his daughter was ripped from his reality into another, in DeWitt's reality, his daughter never existed. Rule of reality I suppose, if it never existed, why would there be memories? Because baby Anna never existed, the memories he had of her should be completely hindered, or eliminated. Which is why he didn't remember what had happened to 'Elizabeth's' finger at the time.

Yeah, smother the bastard in his crib. That's what he said, that's what she did, sadly.

It's like Romeo and Juliet, everyone loses, Romeo turns out to be Juliet's dad, and Juliet's more of a babe than I remembered.

To start, the entire game revolves around the multi-verse theory. Infinite worlds and possibilities, hence where Bioshock gets 'Infinite'. Robert and Rosalind Lutece are the same human being in different universes, but I'd like to assume Robert is from DeWitt's universe, and Rosalind is from Comstock's judging from the evidence of her more noticeable presence from all the Voxophones in Columbia. Although they are both presumed dead in both worlds, in reality they've mastered the process of multi-verse travel as you probably assumed in-game with their flamboyant antics. Anyways, on to the ending explanation.

As you may have guessed, Booker DeWitt and Zachery Comstock are the same person in different universes. After the battle at Wounded Knee, Booker was seeking a way to repent for his sins. They attempted to baptize him in every universe, and there was always two conclusions. If he took the baptism, he was a born again Christian who would be Zachery Comstock who would build Columbia and do all the horrible things he's done in game. If he didn't take the Baptism he's Booker DeWitt, our protagonist.

Rosalind Lutece, the genius behind the reason why Columbia floats also assisted Comstock with the machine that could go through tears, where they met Robert. In the universe where Booker DeWitt exists after he refused baptism, Booker would slowly fall into a heavy depression of drinking, and gambling; ultimately he would go into serious debt. Comstock however offered him a way out;

'Give us the girl, and wipe away the debt.'

At the last moment, Booker immediately regrets that decision(probably became sober) and tries to get her back. They struggle, and Elizabeth loses her pinky.

I'm not 100% sure about this, but it sounds plausible. When he gave his daughter away, he branded his hand; as a reminder of what he had done. But his regret caused him to chase after Elizabeth, where Comstock saw the brand on his hand; hence why he knew of the coming of the 'false shepherd'.

That aside, the brand on his hand stood for "Anna DeWitt", his late wife, and non-existant daughter in his universe. After he lost his daughter Anna/Elizabeth, he also lost his memories that she ever existed, because she never did in his universe.

After Comstock retrieved Elizabeth, he sabotaged the tear machine in an attempt to kill Rosalind and Robert in order to hide the truth of Elizabeth; only he failed miserably and the 'twins' are dancing around universes(literally) helping Booker.

The siphon/tower where she lived was used to suppress her powers, and utilize them as a 'power source'. Probably how Comstock became a 'prophet'. After Songbird destroyed it, she gained the ability to create/travel/see through tears without even opening them. She became almost all-knowing, a god per se.

When they went to Rapture almost 50 years into the future, this was to show the power of her ability, and kill that fucking immortal Songbird. This also showed, that Rapture was not apart of their particular time-line. She showed Infinite light-houses, doors and paths to make Booker understand.

Comstock exists in Infinite Worlds, the only way to kill him for good and prevent the actions he's done, is to remove him from existence. All the Anna DeWitts, and Elizabeth's congregate to drown Booker.

Booker never survived his baptism. Therefore as his life is slowly snuffed out, Elizabeth disappears as well. She was never born.

Bioshock Infinite, was then erased from the timeline. It never existed.

During the crib scene after the credits, it has a Schrodinger's cat scenario.

It's a really sad, and compelling ending for me. Off to 1999 mode.

how she is able to open and close tears at will. Maybe it's because she's a main heroine of the story, or something because the tear closing on and cutting off her finger had any involvement.

On Steam, you buy dirt cheap massive game bundles and after you've bought it, you don't even play them all. With League, sales always suck, and by chance if you do find the sale you want, you use the content all the time.
