World Building over storytelling (Off-Topic)

It sounds good enough for me at the moment, but isn't this foreseeable given the Part 1 thing? In the book that's certainly right when things get "woozy and amorphous" in the words of the critic.

This is exactly the point. Much like Destiny, you don’t get to do a ton of world building while neglecting the story, with the promise that it’ll all make sense or be satisfying later.

I think you can do whatever you want if people want what you are selling them, but this seems different than Destiny given the fact that it's an adaptation and we kinda know how it goes.
