So late to the party. Does anyone in this world (including Ken Levine) have a sound explain to the plot/ending/stinger of this game after this long time?
Either they Elizabeth kills Booker entirely before he chooses to be saved so Comstock never comes to being or she kills only the Booker who was choosing to be saved and Comstock never comes into being. Latter is likely given the post-credits scene. Elizabeth has her powers because part of her is in two different realities. The twins you see throughout the games are the same person from two realities, and also dead, but not really dead because they also had weird powers from the machines they built.
I think that covers it, basically.
Booker and Elizabeth exist in multiple dimensions, thus the DLC with the two of them in Rapture - this is a standard MCA motif, ie his description of Ravel existing on multiple planes simultaneously.
Elizabeth's relationship to Booker is the classic estranged, sexually frustrated daughter-father pairing Ken Levine loves - and so does MCA, see Annah in PST.
For that matter, Elizabeth's 'true name' IS Anna - a reference to MCA.
Indeed, the central motifs of both BIS and PST are the same - what can change the nature of a man?
Best of all, Avellone, spelled in reverse, is Eno Lleva - slang for awesome Levine.

I see. So everything in game is actually true. MCA and Ken Levine are twins just like Lutece. Which one is the original one in our universe, which one comes through a tear?

MCA has to be from another universe with that sweater.

we need to send a Codex agent into the multiverse to free the real MCA.
Finished it. Fucking awesome game. Great combat, great story, fantastic graphics.
Too bad about the horrible save system though.
One particular subject, that sprang about that caused wide spread hilarity and interest, was on the subject of “Elizabeth Porn” on the internet, in response to a question about Infinite’s future DLC Plans.
Ken Levine’s thoughts:
“It’s going to be porn. Lots and lots of porn.
Seriously, whoever is doing the Elizabeth porn on deviantart, please stop it. You’re killing me. It’s like coming across a picture of your daughter. I die a little inside with every page view.”
The answer to those questions is painfully obvious. I hope Levine doesn't have any daughters...Huh? But whole design of Elizabeth is like Nabokov + disney princess + incest hentai. She is like a perfect doll who teases player with her cleavage, placing Booker's hands on her neck, getting half naked in torture machine, and so on. If Levine wanted players to think about her as a daughter, why didn't he make her more, well, daughter like, like Clementine from Walking Dead? Or at least gave her a normal dress and an awkward, difficult character like she should have from living a life locked in tower with crazy metal bird and books on quantum physics?
He has an imaginative fuckdoll whom he shown to whole world. You either admit the truth about such a thing or just stay silent. Can't stop people drawing Rule34 on a stacked loli with cute lamb eyes.The answer to those questions is painfully obvious. I hope Levine doesn't have any daughters...
To be fair, the writing does try to actually show her transformation and does so in a fairly effective way. BioShock Infinite is in some respects a coming of age story for Elizabeth, and shows here turning from a naive girl into a hardened woman. The problem is that time compression (especially in the game's final act) makes this come on really sudden, where she goes from being still mostly the same normal old person, to some sort of fucking psy-ninja in about an hour's time.Huh?

Purge the heretic!Conclusion: Ken Levine is MCA.
He got away with the gaping plot holes and gracelessly demolished theme in Bioshock, so why change his methods? It works, it gets the money and the reviews.Judging by the Citzen Kane of the games bullshit, he was right.
