Exactly this. Yes this was my entire problem. I liked the characters they developed and where they were going with the interesting stories but it needed to be more of a sense8 situation where all of the characters kind of come together to develop and do things. It was so frustrating that 90% of the character development and so many of the characters wound up being pointless until they eventually explain what’s actually going on with those characters. They have no investment in the storyline as characters, they might as well be NPC‘s that walked through a scene.
