Living in Rapture [Bioshock]

01/11/23 • 18 min

Today we are exploring Andrew Ryan's Rapture and what it might be like to live there before the events of Bioshock (2007).
In a fictional 1946, Andrew Ryan creates a city at the seafloor of the Atlantic to escape the craze of a post WWII era and create something truly unique- a perfect utopia, where man can reap the rewards of his sown seeds without the hindrance of government or religion.
But was it truly a utopia?
Looking at everything from living situations to the working economy, we are going to challenge Andrew Ryan's ideals and expose what it really lurking at the bottom of the sea.

I am Andrew Ryan,
and I'm here to ask you a question.
00;00;15;27 - 00;00;19;12
Is a man entitled to the
sweat of his brow?
00;00;20;19 - 00;00;24;14
No, says the man in Washington,
it belongs to the poor.
00;00;24;14 - 00;00;29;13
No, says the man in the Vatican,
it belongs to God.
00;00;29;13 - 00;00;34;25
No, says the man in Moscow,
it belongs to everyone.
00;00;34;25 - 00;00;37;21
I rejected those answers.
