including lowercase G gamers like myself.

Jason, I know you fell off quickly.

Totally valid.

Those opening hours are pretty rough.

But I, like many others, have loved the sense of adventure and exploration.

Why do the three of you think there has been such a big difference between the review scores and the way the game has actually been received?

All the best to you all.

P.S.

Please come do a live show in the UK.

I hope we can someday.

So what do we think?

Do you think maybe it's because of just the inherent limitations of reviewing a game, which are that you only have a limited time?

And so if a game starts slow or has the first 5 to 10 hours that are bad, it's really hard to overcome that first impression, especially if you're cramming in a whole lot of time.

And I mean, these are all the pitfalls that we describe constantly.

And it's harder to notice or even appreciate some of the little things about the game that might be interesting.

In that context where you're already like, this isn't hitting me right, because it requires you to take several weeks of time.

Yeah, this is part of why I'm hesitant to even make my case because I'm like, I don't know if I can.

Oh yeah, that's kind of like a cult hit now, right?

The divine powers being the game developers themselves.

Oh, such a good game.
