And some people are skeptical for equally good reason. Nothing you've said changes the fact that Autumn Moon is an unknown as a studio designing its first game from the ground up, with no experienced lead writers/designers at the helm. Having reservations about the result is hardly hoping it will fail or expecting it to be bad, as you seem to be wrongly implying. Telltale's first games were hardly masterpieces, if you're going to hold up them as a standard. They got better fast, but it took a while. Personally I wouldn't be at all surprised if AVS shows similar signs of growing pains.
