	Has anyone else noticed that... Spoiler: Atlas spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. When you play through the game again you really notice that he says "would you kindly" so much. But on your first play through, it doesn't even occur to you that he says it a lot? Pretty good subliminal messaging haha ------------------- Galileo was imprisoned by the church. For exposing that the earth was not at the centre of the universe. So in 1616 they already had control of what they thought you and I were allowed to know.

	Haha, yeah, I agree totally. Spoiler: Atlas spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. Even the little things like the words "Would you kindly" written on the package you open on the plane at the start seems so normal. It's incredible how often the words appear, yet you just don't notice. ------------------- _last.fm

	Spoiler: Atlas Spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. The one instance of "Would you Kindly..." which did seem out of place, was when you Kill Andrew Ryan and Atlas screams something like "would you kindly put that key in the machine" or whatever it is he says.

	I noticed all that too. quote I never remember him once saying it the first time through, but now on my second run, it's all he ever says. ------------------- *bleep*

The one instance of "Would you Kindly..." which did seem out of place, was when you Kill Andrew Ryan and Atlas screams something like "would you kindly put that key in the machine" or whatever it is he says. Might need to fix your tags there. I think there is good reason for that. Spoiler: Atlas spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. By that point, Ryan has already revealed the power of the words "Would you kindly" to you, so the words would stand out far more. Furthermore, Atlas/Fontaine has no more need for subtlety at that point. His mind control forces you to comply at the sound of the words anyway, and as he's so close to attaining his goal, he cares not of potential suspicion, as he thinks it'll all be over soon. ------------------- _last.fm

	Spoiler: Atlas Spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. Atlas doesn't reveal that he is Fontaine until the moment after you cancel the self destruct sequence. He says "would you kindly stick that key in the machine" before you put the key in the machine (obviously) -------------------

	Spoiler: Spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. The thing is, though, why didn't he force you to get killed? He just sent the security bots after you, he never says "would you knidly stand still?" etc. ------------------- *bleep*

	Spoiler: Atlas Spoiler Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. Later on, after you leave Tenenbaum's Stronghold, he says "Would you kindly go get stepped on by a Big Daddy? Of course, Tenenbaum had stopped Fontaine's mind control -------------------

	Spoiler: Atlas. Again. Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. Perhaps he didn't think Tenenbaum would have known how to cancel out his mind control? -------------------

	Can't was just put [Spoilers] in the thread title?): Spoiler: Atlas Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text. And the only time I thought back and noticed it was him saying "Would you kindly lower that weapon for a minute?". On my second play through I'm trying to see there's any instance where I can not do what he kindly asks me to. :D

	There's one in Fort Frolic. He simply tells you to take the Bathysphere to the next zone. You don't have to. You can go back to Neptune's Bounty. -------------------
