> he believes time is valuable and should be respected

That's what he says, but not what he does. https://youtu.be/KZokQov_aH0 Haven't experienced a bigger author disconnect in gaming in the decade.

I'm not going to watch a 40 minute video to try and work out what your argument is.

You could have at least picked out some particular puzzles like the backwards-moving-cloud puzzle piece in Braid or the Eclipse Film puzzle in The Witness. Those are tiny optional side-puzzles to games which otherwise very much do not waste your time. My interpretation is they are Jon's way of critiquing completionism.

Alright, I'll concede that some platforms do seem to move needlessly slowly.

Wow, that platform moving does seem painfully slow!

It's certainly wasted in a narrative sense (yeah - that real ending is really sucky.), but the puzzles & environment can be fairly pleasing. It's not a total waste, basically. But yes, that review you posted was fairly accurate.

No one is going to watch a 40 minute video with no context, dude.
