My review did go in the reviews area. I also posted it here since I'd like discussion on why I feel the way I feel about the game.
I get that the endings aren't done, but the way this has been done is what annoys me, it feels to me like the devs had plans for the game, but simply want to bail now. I'd much have preferred to not have the "Much, much later" screen, and and instead have the note from the dev stating something along the lines of "That's the end of this version of the game. Please check back later. The next update will be the final update to the game and will add the endings."
To use your metaphor, I see it as the cook saying "I'm working on it. It'll be done in a few minutes." Then coming back in half an hour and the cook tells you "I barely started and I quit. Just take the burger without any patty since I'm leaving."
