But that's my totally uncritical take, if a "take" is all you're looking for. If you're looking for a real deep dive into what this game did and didn't do on a very critical level then join me for this video. I've been working on this for MONTHS... This has taken a lot of time and effort and I'm so happy to finally have it out there. I know the entire premise of this video is one many are going to disagree with, I know people will be angry and I know the comments will be a complete minefield but I wasn't going to simply lie and say the game was good just to appease the people who don't want to engage in a critical discussion. I really do hope you enjoy this piece and feel it was valuable to hear what I have to say. Constructive and insightful comments are always welcome also, I love to hear what you have to say, all I ask is you try to keep it respectful, to me and to each other.
