Description

We break the hearts of fandom as we are baffled by the rampaging success of Baldur's Gate 3, an interesting game made of many spectacular details that don't cohere for us into something that we like playing - a game whose reception and accolades led us to be very confused: "It's all informed by the next sentence you don't get to pick."

Part 2 in our evolving series of wrestling with understanding the inherent appeal of all-consuming and frictional media objects.
