This video will please nobody.

Bioshock Infinite's legacy is tainted, but I still love it. It's a messy, slick, limited, deep, well-written, poorly-written game that's as controversial as it was well-reviewed at release.
So let’s finish this series of critiques with the most divisive Bioshock. Let’s walk through Bioshock Infinite – and Burial at Sea – to assess what went right, what went wrong, what it’s trying to say, and if it’s worth playing all these years later – after the hype.
