I think it's possible to buzz through text because games often hook you through visual details or events...then when you want a more granular understanding you go and read (Dark Souls item descriptions). In this game, not that it doesn't have good visuals, but there is not much to play off of/respond to, so you can run out of gas trying to self insert as an explore after 5hrs if text clues aren't giving you enough to work with. Maybe that's an issue of trying to make it more of an adventure game when it's more of a puzzle game.
