As an engineer, my favorite kinds of puzzle games are the ones where you're presented with a set of tools or rules to follow and you then use those tools to figure out increasingly intricate puzzles. Games like The Witness or Portal 2.
Baba is You is literally the very opposite of that. In Baba is You, you quite literally have to break the game to beat the game. And that whole "how can I break this to beat it" was something I just couldn't get my mind around. Which is annoying, because this game is cool as heck. I wish it meshed with how my brain works a bit better, but the further I got into the game, the less I understood what I could or could not do.

Thank you, Backloggd user Brockreiher, for determining a man's worth in his profession by if he was good at a puzzle game.

@TheYeti No proplem pal.
thats interesting imo because i feel like baba is you presents its tools/rules more opaquely than the witness. i still havent finished that one because i got too stubborn to look up a walkthrough but just straight up did not even know what the game expected from me
