Everyone is praising the update and here i sit feeling like it was average, not bad, not amazing, just the usual stuff, a bit of this and a bit of that all neatly put together. Either i really have soured on this game somewhat or you guys have all gotten your standards dropped thanks to the last few updates all being subpar.
I
was souring, in fact. So much so that I almost didn't play this update and decided to wait for the next one. To play two in a row and see if things changed. I forced myself regardless, and at some point (fairly early on), I found myself effortlessly blazing through the update, not bored at all.
Definitely felt like the best update in a long time for me. Maybe Selebus had more time to write a tighter package. I don't know. The past few updates were marked by a vacation and an awkward deadline (EOY.) A change of chapter, too.
Or maybe not. Perhaps my humor was better? Maybe I should drink a bit before each update to simulate sleepiness. See if that changes things. Maybe Maya's violin was the cause. That was very soothing.
When I'm sleepy, most of the meandering monologues in this game blur into an indistinct mass of meaning, which I only grasp the surface of before moving on. Usually, I'd try to look into them a bit deeply. Try to tie them together.
Whatever the reason, my interest has been renewed.
