I used to be a great fan, but now I find this format tedious and anything but fun, especially for a completist like me. I'm not going to work my way through all the menus in Bandersnatch to see 5 hours of content just like I'm not going to really read all of a CYOA book. The format demands something of you, but it gives very little in return (except for accessing new content). But novelty hidden in the thing I bought, when it's locked not behind some clever puzzle but just a wall of time, well, I'm not interested. Yes to interactive stories (aka "Games"), No to CYOA tedium. The only thing worth doing with these things is reading/watching them through and making a diagram of the branches. Otherwise it's the storytellers job to pick the branches, and to show me a good sequence.
