paradoxGentleman posted:The ghost marine biologist path would have been much better if Mr. North had committed to it and let us have some real underwater adventures, but it really falls flat like this. This is a Hamlet CYOA - it's only sensible that the most developed paths are the ones closest to the original story. The idea of a ghost underwater biologist is really interesting, but it *could* easily take up an entire book of it's own, and it doesn't belong here. Ryan North isn't above having interesting ideas and ultimately, when given the change taking these forwards. And I don't really see the writing as masturbatory - it's not 'look how smart I am' ha ha ha - it's always trying to bring you with it on the adventure and share Ryan's enthusiasm. One idea if you are finding the writing style and multiple dead-ends frustrating, then look ahead and mark them as such, or alternately whenever we reach a dead-end immediately backtrack and take the second most popular option, or reopen the vote.
