CVG recently posted an interview with Ken Levine, where he discusses some of the themes and approaches used while creating BioShock Infinite, and a few of the reasons behind them. In this interview, several topics are touched upon, giving some insight as to why BioShock Infinite is in a different time period, some of the design influences employed, and how the simple idea of a city in the sky came to be.

    That was beautiful music, a really good change from the original, fast paced orchestra from the first games.

    Kudos to Mr. Schyman, because that was fantastic.

    Anyway, I think that Columbia is the best decision that I’ve seen in games for some time, I am very impressed with everything from it, actually inspiring me in doing some very good stuff.

    Bummer, I thought this was on the origins of Columbia from a plot perspective rather than a developer POV.
