It went to hell for a reason.

Eutopia is synonymous with distopia. Perfection can never be achieved, and to attempt to do so most often results in cataclysm. So I vote "no."

Hell-fucking-yes I would move to Rapture. It went to hell for a reason sure, but I've played the game. I can advise him on how to avoid this, all I need is a wrench and the lightning plasmid and I'll take out that Frank Fontaine!

<3 Rapture + BioShock!

Remember, you don't know that plasmids would exist. So an ADAM addicted society would be impossible to exist.

It wasn't even Utopian before it went to complete hell. People were promised a better society and were enslaved by Ryan before Fontaine made it even worse.

I'd say "would you kindly make me the leader of rapture?", then move in.

Maybe if there weren't plasmids or people with huge egos at every turn. I'm all for a community made up with the elites of society, but most of audio logs made the smart dudes sound like total pretentious dicks.

If I could leave whenever I wanted, not be influenced by gene-modification addiction, and Rapture had good internet access? Fuck yea.
