Are you doing this project on camera? If so, could you please provide a link to your Twitch channel. I would be interested in watching videos.

Also, as far as the nature of the project premise provided, A Realm Reborn is considered by many people to get off to a weak beginning. I just finished it last night for the first time, and there is a movie length cinematic at the end of the post-patch. (Approximately 90 minutes of cinematic split into two parts). I will have trouble taking any analysis seriously that doesn't include at least the entirety of ARR.

I don't think one earns the right as a critic to deliver a review without having finished the entire piece. A critic who does that is a bad critic.

Just to clarify, there is a climax event that was the original end of the first release of the game, but then a patch was released before the second expansion, ("Heavensward" is the second expansion), that is so long it is almost an expansion unto itself, and that's the ending I'm talking about with the long cinematic.

I have one more concern about your bias going into the project - This is a game, not a novel. The writers' goals are not only to write a compelling narrative, but also to provide an MMO gameplay experience that will appeal to a large enough MMO market to make a profit.

I am anticipating many criticisms here about all the story-useless filler you're going to be encountering. The filler is there to stretch the amount of play time required to progress the story, because the developers' profit is dependent on time-played metrics with a subscription-based monetarization model.

Still, I will be curious if the gameplay filler component of the story-telling will stretch your patience to the point of causing you to abandon the project before it's finished.
