You need to think of these things in the context of investment systems. When he says you will fail, it's not because you're going to encounter cool situations which you are unprepared for in terms of skill or knowledge, but because your avatar won't be strong enough. This has been confirmed by Game Informer. Which is dumb.

The whole point of that section was the exact opposite, how you will fail because you need to learn these systems and get better. Which is a complement to what Bakken said in the GI article, not a overridden by it. If one were to take your previous arguments seriously thew would expect you to *celebrate* his points.

I would also point out that throughout this interview, he explicitly addresses some of the things you complain abut. The idea of meaningful choice, of not being able to just switch at will, of not making the goal of the game being numbers go up etc etc. But here were are, going around that little merry-go-round in your head again.
