Currently DEVOURING House of Leaves and damn if this isn’t right up my ally, looking seeing more about this
We don't know. What we do know is the wiring diagram works. We built it, virtually, in @godotengine.org. We fed it scans of the books we found.

We're hoping people can make sense of it for us.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

Xbox really seems committed to making decisions that isolate their player-base. Making it 25% more expensive for people to even develop games for your third place platform, which NEEDS to have enough quality games to justify an expensive subscription service, is a baffling “strategy.”
