When there's widespread consensus about what matters, what makes a good game, those guiding principles can take on the sheen of objectivity, but they're never that. They're just widely agreed upon, sometimes unquestioned, ideas about what's good and what isn't.
Tevis often provokes me into questioning my own assumptions and beliefs, which isn't always comfortable but is useful. Example: Early in INCB he challenges the idea that good "gamefeel" is inherently good. He argues that we have to consider what good gamefeel is in service of.
He applies this rigor to a great many things, leaving almost no assumption unchallenged. I find that invigorating, and in an era where I feel like a good deal of game coverage & writing actively tries to comfort and reassure and not to provoke or challenge, I think it's valuable.
