Hmm. You make a good point. I guess he wouldn't actually sell her, but if worse comes to worse, he probably would have to give her up.MASTACHIEFPWN said:But who would just randomly buy a baby? Child Services?scorptatious said:but that doesn't necessarily mean he won't sell her.
Who knows though, maybe there's a reality where Booker somehow pays his debts without selling Anna and they could live happily together. That's me being optimistic though.
The reason he sold Anna in the first place was because someone wanted to buy her, and he heavily regreted his decision. Had the person he sold it to not escape through a trans-dimensional worm hole, ending the deal would be a lot simpler.
It's a matter of supply and demand. What demand is there for a child, when you could just have your own?
Adoption, that would seem more likely to happen, in the harsh reality of Booker being a bad guy and such.
Hmm.Blood Brain Barrier said:It's actually the campaign against the term which reeks of pretentiousness, because it takes it as pejorative when it need not be. "Dumbing down" is perfectly apt for the phenomenon which is taking place in recent years in gaming, and companies will be the first to tell you that making games dumber is generally good for business. And finally it doesn't necessarily say anything about the audience that the games are being dumbed down. A Nobel Prizewinner might enjoy a dumb game but that doesn't make him dumb. Some of us just like simple, easy and linear games.scorptatious said:I really wish people would stop using the term "dumbed down". It's been thrown around way too much and it reeks of pretentiousness.amuasyeas said:It was a severely dumbed-down game with a pseudo-intellectual plot ridden with holes.
I can see your point about the whole business thing. Making accessible games makes it so more people buy the game. Plus you're right, a person isn't defined by what kinds of games he/she enjoys.
However, I don't believe that a game being simple necessarily makes it dumb. Games like say, Super Meat Boy are pretty simple and easy to learn games, but they're quite hard and challenging.
