Heya! I reached out to your offer by e-mail.
Your response is more than valid of course. I think initially I was also a bit sour due to my initial findings. I've mellowed a bit over time and have grown to appreciate the sounds I do like a lot more.
You're right, "more" can be better for the average person. I think I'm just extra strict on this as an amateur audio / music production person. Since I already have a ton of audio production tools, any 'ready made' sounds that steer too close to 'regular' instruments or 'minimalist' sound engineering feel a bit like 'wasted money', if that makes sense.
Perhaps people without those tools feel less strongly about this issue :)
I've also never played Ratchet & Clank, so I'll give those a listen too to see how they did their minimalist sounds.
And for what it's worth, I still think this pack is great, the other points I raised are really 'minor' nitpicks, the only big concern for me was Impacts. And as you mentioned, it's hard to create those 'big' sounds if you don't have access to the right tools & machinery.
