Are you a middle aged+ developer? You read the DDD/CQRS/event driven book or viewed the conference. My dear friend, you have fallen victim to developer porn. It's very addictive. You end up playing "the architecture game" rather than building anything useful.
I have yet to come across ONE good large scale project that makes use of these and isn't a big ball of mud.
