By trying to do so much, does Crimson Desert risk achieving nothing?

Enjoyed this and think you raise some valid points!
The piece was born out of frustration and becoming tired of, what feels like, constant negativity, but I'll admit that perhaps parts of it are misguided, and maybe more haste less speed would've been beneficial.
Appreciate you reading it, though!

Anyway, I cooked a nice chorizo pasta, enjoyed what I saw of Fable and Forza, hung out with my best friend, finished TR-49, played some Wanderstop, and watched a couple of episodes of The Pitt this evening. So all things considered, a great night.

When you're already low, it's not another kick you need, to be honest. Always up for friendly conversation, though.

With this piece, I was just trying to share some of my frustrations with what I see as preemptive judgment when it comes to unreleased games.
While I can perfectly see why some wouldn't agree, I'm not sure I deserve to be torn apart for it by someone who doesn't know me. I'm pleasant, I promise.

Steadily be getting annoyed by this, so decided to rant about how we should probably play games before writing them off.

Barely less than an hour into Inkle's latest, TR-49, but I'm already hopelessly sucked in. They've only gone and done it again.

Ah, that's a shame. My two favourites of the year and some of the most fun I've had in recent years!
Admittedly, my favourite genre is "following characters on meandering, often hapless, 100mph journeys", though.

I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with the incredible Jennifer Hale to chat all about her most iconic characters.
It was a lovely time.
