If you are the kind of person who molds their personality around things reddit likes, you would be completely right.

But you are not, because this is nothing but bait.

I don't think there was anything wrong with the IDEA of this book. A reference-heavy fetishistic love letter to 80s pop culture could still be fun. But it would need:
>a believable fleshed-out world
>a good puzzle and series of challenges driving the plot
>a non-explanatory style that incorporates references fluidly instead of pausing ever minute to say "now, I should explain the significance of this show--which is one of my favorites..."

Never before have I felt such a strong sense of "The author wasn't smart enough to write this." His idea of a subtle clue is a blatant reference to the single most notorious D&D module of all time, but somehow our hero was the only one to notice that in years of playing.
