Did anybody actually notice the 'Would You Kindly's in Bioshock?

[sp]Until Atlas tell you about it, of course.[/sp]
Yes, I'm a genius.

Also, would you kindly suck my dick?
I thought everyone was just being polite.
No actually I didn't notice it :(
If you say you noticed it and thought it was more than a strange thing then you are a lying idiot
I did notice that he said 'would you kindly' lots of times, but I just thought it was something he does. I never found it suspicious.
I had the entire story spoiled to me before I even got to the plane crash... Hate it when that happens. Woulda loved the chance to have found it out myself, especially since I noticed would you kindly written in that present thingy.
I never paid much attention to it. I don't think it's really feasible for someone to figure that out. Unless, maybe, they saw it on the present in the beginning. I figured that it's just how he talks. There was no real indication that it was anything more than that. It kinda seems like it was just an excuse to keep the game from being open ended.
I did a couple of times, [sp]but when he says what it is and starts giving examples, i was like "holy shit this man is a genius"[/sp]
I noticed he said it a lot and though;
"Nice quirk, least he doesn't swear a lot instead".
Though I do remember thinking;
"If you wern't so damned polite I'd get a Bathysphere and head home".
I never noticed it at all.
When I replayed it the box you have on the plane says Would you kindly crash the plane or something to that extent.
I noticed it and wondered why, but of course the real reason didn't occur to me.
I was oblivious. Just thought it was a minor character detail. I was mindfucked when I met Ryan.
It took me by complete surprise, I only got the first suspicion when it was plastered all over the wall, even then it still didn't make sense to me.

Nothing [i]ever[/i] makes sense in Bioshock unless it's plastered over a wall.
Nope, but then i played it again and [B]really[/B] noticed how many times he actually says the phrase.
No, that's what made it so amazing.

But then there are nonsensical things plastered on walls too
Especially around the bodies of people who tried to smuggle bibles into the city

I learned from the nonsensical stuff especially.

I was just about to say that!
I noticed that he did say it, but I didn't notice how often he does and only when he tells Jack to do something. When he did reveal what was going on with that, I got it.
I noticed. It actually made Atlas kind of a laughing stock, and made me and my friend look out for when he'd say those words again. [sp]But more than that... When Ryan started mentioning things like 'nostalgia' and 'knife in your back' I started getting ideas, but maybe it was Atlas himself, not the phrase.[/sp]
No I didn't notice them but when I play it I will now because you made the entire title a massive spoiler telling people to pay attention to it because it is suspicious. Thanks.

Well I would've put the title as 'Did you notice a certain phrase in a certain game?', but that might've been a bit vague. Besides, that's why I put the OP in [sp].
They took me by surprise.
I never thought about it, but when I [sp]came into the room with the pictures and "WOULD YOU KINDLY" written on the wall[/sp] everything became clear to me in less than a second. Totally blew my mind.
I was like [B]FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFSSSSHHHHHHHHHHITTT[/B]

same as this guy
but yes i did suspect something
i cannot say it was i was being hypnotized,but it sounded like being polite at the beggining,then it was do this would you kindly do that would you kindly...i tought either atlas was an illusion,or that atlas knew jack before and something explained the phrase...so yes i suspected something fishy but not being hypnotized
when i found out
mind=blown
No, british people are naturally polite so i didn't think anything of it.
I noticed it but I didn't think much of it.
Can someone explain why it is so amazing he was saying that? Spoiler tag it for others.
