CountDog 10/21/22 8:31:13 PM #17:	The environment story telling is not concrete details. And the item lore is more or less minimum. I didn't think any of it is bad. In fact a lot of it is interesting. But it could be a lot more interesting. And wouldn't have to divulge even that much more detail. Like the fact I can find books everywhere but can't read them is maddening! But I remind myself that this is a action RPG.
