BioShock Infinite Trailer: In-Depth Analysis (Terminal Gamer)

"What’s interesting here is that the game world represents an earlier time period and very different ideology. It’s safe to assume that BioShock Infinite takes its inspiration from the isolationist policies of the U.S. in the first half of the 20th century. Furthermore, the building styles, the dress of the people seen in the trailer, and the policies that appear to have formed the city in the sky reflect a time period prior to that of BioShock. It would seem that BioShock Infinite takes place in the early 1900s. Furthermore, it takes place in a society that is clearly highly patriotic, isolationist, and anti-immigrant."
