Oh also, I thought about this while playing the game, and I read an article that supports my beliefs.
+ Show Spoiler +Elizabeth is the predecessor to the little sisters. How do I know? I don't, but her clothes are similar, she had the same needle (if you died you'd know that), and it kind of makes sense. To take this one step further, a Forbes article actually said that Rapture IS Columbia, but sunk under the ground (really paraphrasing here, the article itself is here.
Obviously purely speculation, but what can't really think of how else the game ties in with the previous ones.

Fuck I accidentally read your spoiler at work before starting the game! I just started playing but can't keep thinking of the spoiler... How spoiled is the game for me? 
Edit: To be clear, I know almost nothing about the game apart from that spoiler I accidentally read

Ahahahaha oh man, why would you ever do such a thing to yourself?
If I'm to be honest, it's a pretty fucking big spoiler, but you can at least still enjoy the question of 'how is that possible?!?!!' while playing through the game.

lol its a pretty massive.spoiler
still worth playing probs tho, there will still be some mindfucks.
You will very likely enjoy the journey regardless so dont beat urself up

Well... I DID watch fight club, but I didn't know the ending prior. So... I'm not really sure if I would lol. But you make a good point.

I dunno, I was bored at work and ended up randomly browsing TL. I was half reading posts, half just scrolling, and before I knew it, I ended up in this thread and dun goof'd.
But yeah... I guess that's what's keeping me going right now. It's been a long time since I've managed to immerse myself into a single player experience enough to bother finishing it, and I was pretty sure that this game would be the one that would be able to grab and hold my attention at long last! ...But i had to fuck it up LOL.
Ah well, I'm still very interested to know how it happened, so hopefully I can stop hitting myself in the head and just enjoy the journey despite knowing what awaits me in the destination. We'll see!
Thanks guys.

Maybe this read will put your mind at ease. I'm sorry that happened, though. I know it definitely would've ruined it a bit for me. With that said, the journey is still amazing.

Generally spoilers shouldn't actually affect quality story telling and in many cases they actually enhance it for most people.

I think its to do with knowing how the situation ends up just makes you more curious as to how it gets there, to be a bit cliche, its not the destination but the journey that counts.
Obviously that doesn't mean go out and spoil things for people, just don't start thinking you've ruined it if you accidentally come across one. I know I've done it before with films etc and I really enjoyed reading the first GoT book after watching the series, probably more than if I hadn't watched it tbh, you pick up on things a bit more if you have a an idea of where things are heading, if its a well written story with depth anyway.

Come on man; that's like a moving marines/tank into banelings on creep. I'm sorry that I indirectly change your game experience But, look at the bright side; the spoiler will force you to give more attention to the story when you are playing the game :D

I have a question...
+ Show Spoiler +How the first loop begin? (If Comstock doesn't come back to steal Booker's daughter, He(Booker) would not sad and go do baptism and become Comstock at the first place.
Or the real reason that he go to baptism is to remove his sin from the Wounded knee?)'

+ Show Spoiler +Baptism scene was directly after Wounded Knee, long before Anna is born. Comstock became infertile due to his exposure to the machinery created by Lutece.

Btw if you guys play through another time, the game gets better. which is probably why 1999 mode was unlockable.

not at all. but the plot and characters are sooo much more rewarding the second time through. the game was best game i've played this century first time though. second is even better.

+ Show Spoiler +
On the link between Rapture and Columbia..
In rapture we've got Jack, Ryan and the little sisters protected by a big daddy. Opposing faction is Atlas/Fontaine's movement.
In columbia we've got DeWitt, Comstock, Elizabeth and the songbird. Opposing faction is the Vox Populi with Fitzroy at the helm.
To me they seem to be the constants, whereas the locations and motivations are the variables.

Hey guys, I'm on Bioshock 1 currently looking to start Infinite right after.
I have a quick question for those who have finished the first one - does the game get any less 'dark' as I move on, or am I going to be stuck in this underwater hellhole for the rest of the game? If you could PM me the answer so that I can avoid spoilers, I'd really appreciate it
Also, is Infinite less jumpy? I hate being freaked the fuck out at 1AM and jumping out of my chair when someone pops around the corner, lmao.

First two games stay in that environment for the whole game. Infinite is based in a completely different setting which is much brighter and last darker and ominous. There are still a few 'jump' moments in Infinite but they are few and far in between.
