So, i finished playing bioshock for the 3rd time today, and this time i actually paid attention to the dialogue.

I was wondering, taking both location and government into account, what would be the biggest benefits of a real-life rapture city? I'm sure that major medical advances would be great, and the whole "nothing is morally questionable" thing would be perfect, but is there anything im not seeing here?[/QUOTE]

you dont fucking understand that people can abuse plasmids do you

Until a massive plane comes crashing down, severing off a corridor.

I think a volcano base is much better than an underwater city. If you want secrecy, volcano base is the way to go. Not building a city fucking under water.

Fish porn anyone?

Uhm, that's the reason it turned out so crappily.
On the one hand you have anti-stem cell protesters saying that killing a potential life to save real ones is evil and wrong and let's hold back science.
On the other hand, you've got [i]training small girls to eat the flesh of corpses[/i]. And the whole "Let's just inject random crap into ourselves until we're barely human!" And would you kindly not forget the whole brainwashing thing?

When have i been one to listen to a frenchie?

[iatealawnmower]

You guys realize how hard that would be to build right?

Im thinking, someone should start a thread on Role-playing, and try to make a fictional country. It could be a collaborative effort, and then I guess we can see how realistic we can make it, along with it matching our personal desires.

[sp]Or then we can just create a country called Penisland and go that goon route...[/sp]

Other than a crazy dictator, tons of crazies trying to kill you, little girls injecting and dejecting shit, crazies with powers, crumbling locations, places set on fire/flooded/destroyed, big men in diving suits also trying to kill you, guns everywhere in sight, crazy man trying to teach you how to play piano, and drugs everywhere...

It's fine.
