He's a good writer in that realm, I would agree that far. But I never thought he was that amazing, especially not compared to others in that same industry. Hell, the obvious example would be Disco Elysium. His recent work on PoE did absolutely nothing for me.
That being said, tastes and all that, I didn't mean to really denigrate him and sorry if it sounds that way. More that there's something about him and the whole Obsidian thing happening on the Codex that had a really foul smell despite my complete agreement that in all likelihood, Urquart is to blame.
Also, I completely agree with your earlier post regarding the EGS and the anti-moneyhat reaction.
