Why is there so much hate for BioShock Infinite?

It had to be that way though. That was the whole point of the story.

And that is why I don't like it. A better story would've been one where not all of my actions are exercises in futility.

I've only done one playthrough of Bioshock 1 so far. Was Jack aware of what was going on? I don't recall that.

Booker definitely had zero idea what was going on in Infinite. I mean, he probably started to suspect it (as the player might), but his memories were mangled going in.

I think if you are pyschologically compelled to do exactly what they say to you after "would you kindly" you'd know.

As for booker, yeah he didn't know, I remembered incorrectly why I so disliked the story after 8 years.

I guess I just didn't feel my actions in Infinite were futile. Booker achieved his preferred outcome, and that was what I wanted, so I was good with it.

I see your point about Jack. I guess I gave it a pass because the poor confused fellow has only existed a short time, and I too did not really question why I was doing all these strange things (I figured I was doing them because for whatever reason, Jack thought he should), so perhaps he didn't either =D But you are right--now I stop to think about it, it is odd.

The only thing that I didnt liked about Infinite is the final battle on top of the ship, I mean its simply a wave of enemies coming at you, for a game that has a good variety of enemies it was dissapointing that there was no final boss battle like in Bioshock 1, I mean Frank Fontaine wasnt exactly a great boss in the first game but at least it was better than having a simple wave of common enemies, and besides the second game had already done that and Infinite had all the characters and universe to give us a good final boss. Other than that I actually liked the story.
