I love every paragraph of this. However, I do disagree with one thing: “The Outer Worlds kinda sucks.” The Outer Worlds absolutely sucks.

Hahahahaha! Thank you, Jed. I appreciate that. You certainly were in my mind as one of those ruthlessly individual critics I respect so much while I was writing this.

Very cool of you to say. The respect is mutual. I just find this piece of yours compelling. Your response to those definitions of hobbyist and critic is very provocative, as it seems to reveal (to me) a deceptive rhetorical tactic from the writer in question.

At this point, I interpret that tweet as an attempt to justify the writer’s own feelings about Death Stranding (however vague or unimpressive those feelings might be).

Yeah, now that you put it that way, it's hard for me not to see it that way as well. I think you're onto something.
