The Mad Genius of Rapture: The Twisted Tale of Sander Cohen | FULL Bioshock Lore

  • Sander Cohen is one of Bioshock's most twisted and sadistic characters. His actions made great waves to the foundation of Rapture and its population where Fort Frolic became the centre of art in the underwater utopia - but, behind the stunning pieces of art were dark secrets and tortured souls that eventually led to the dreaded Quadtych.
    What brought him to Rapture, what atrocities did he commit, and how does his story end? In this video, I explore the lore and story behind Sander Cohen in Bioshock with TheBioshockHub.

    I don't think Cohen started out as evil, but that he had the capacity or predisposition for it. Without the typical constraints imposed on him by the surface society he lived in, he was able and encouraged to take is artistic ideas to their extreme and create with them.

    • @Skyrionn
      @Skyrionn  Рік тому +2

      Very well said - and I think I agree

    • @JabamiLain

      Please don't call me out like that (I and Cohen have that part in common, with the difference being I don't have a "Rapture").

      I’ve noticed that “artistic” types need constraints placed upon them more often than not. The artistic mind is inclined to chaos. Most self-regulate and don’t become an issue, but an environment that has no constraints, it is easy for bad things to happen.

    I am still mad that your videos get a couple thousand views, they deserve hundreds of thousands if not MILLIONS of views.
    Hope your channel gets more clout and that people watch them because they are top tier and very informative

      It's a little frustrating. My Half-Life videos perform really well, but whenever I post something different to Portal/ Half-Life - then the algorithm just doesn't push them out. I'll just continue to make videos until the algorithm changes.
      Thanks for watching :)

    >Sofia Lamb
    >Well written
    Are we thinking of the same character? Because as I remember Sofia, she was a retconned cardboard cutout of a character with zero charisma. Yet, the game treated her as if she is on par with Andrew Ryan, forming her own cult, acting all 'smart'.
    I cringed every time she spoke. 'Delta, here, in Rapture, we are all big family full of love. You are an ugly monster. Nobody loves you. Go off yourself!'
    Yeah, very welll-written.

    I would pay for you to do a Gummy bear review.
    Why and how are they evil?
    The famous sugar free Gummy Bears that Amazon sells and the famous reviews of them that sound like a thriller novel.
    I would love to see how creative you could be with that concept.
