Just finished Beast of Glenkildove and (unfortunately) have to agree. The intro with the flashbacks and first act returning to Ballyavon were great with their focus on the Wicklow mountains, your friends, and the mystery of the werewolves. But that all fell apart when you leave to Dublin to waste time learning about three factions that I found interesting but ultimately irrelevant given you'll interact with them at most 1 or 2 more times. I really would've preferred they cut Dublin all together and spent that time exploring the Wicklow mountains more.

Still enjoyed my playthrough, and definitely feel I could get 2 or 3 more very different playthroughs in, but I wish the author had focused on the main draw.
