Connections (spoilers)


With the "parallel worlds and the ending I'm wondering if there may be one where "Anna" grows up to be Dr.Lamb as "lamb" is shouted from the treetops through infinite, obviously in "Rapture World", the only problem is I think the timeline's out

P.S Those of you 30 and above, damn I wish there was a System Shock 3 on the cards

Okay I don't think Anna/Elizabeth BECOMES Lamb but in the worlds where there is no Columbia... Rapture exists with Eleanor Lamb and all that. I think the parallels are

Jack = Booker
Ryan = Comstock
Eleanor/Little Sisters = Elizabeth
Subject Delta = Songbird
Big Daddies = Handymen
Plasmids = Vigors
Rapture = Columbia


I guess it's more complicated than that because Delta goes in and rescues Eleanor in a Booker type fashion and Booker and Comstock are the same person whereas Jack and Andrew Ryan aren't the same person. At least, not that we know of. Also the Big Daddies are more like Songbird than Handymen but Handymen are definitely like Big Daddies. Songbird I think is like Delta because he's the Lamb's protector/"Daddy". Delta is also like Booker because he may in fact BE Eleanor's father. But I think those are the general parallels. Obviously Eleanor Lamb and Elizabeth the Lamb are connected... I think not enough people draw that connection...

If SShock3 happens, it would be good. The rights are apparently tied up in a real weird way, which has been an obstacle for reviving what is quickly becoming an obscure franchise - another obstacle in itself.

If it happens, it will only work if they go back to a traditional, stat management, RPG type of game. In other words, do what System Shock 2 did, not dumb it down like Bioshock did, where the general idea was simplified for the lowest common denominator. If I'm not scratching my head deciding if I should evolve my tech tree, or stick with Remote Electron Tampering in my Psi, then I'm just not playing a System Shock game.
