So to put it simpley most of the main characters that you see have certain “quirks” that make each one unique to themselves and as the story goes on those “quirks” begin to expand. For some of the characters it’s a good thing but for most not so much at least in my opinion. Wizards become more arrogant, certain figureheads are naively self-assured, workers become extra eedy, certains aliens become annoyingly aggressive and so on and so forth. The story overall is good… it’s just that most of the characters actions and reasons are just really stupid sometimes. I don’t know how that galaxy sustains itself. It seems most people there are stupid, arrogant or lucky. I think I only really liked the engineer and the techie and that’s it everyone else was just getting on my nerves. Oh and word of warning Esper appears only twice in the story. Once to be a self righteous nuisance, and two to be a useless self righteous nuisance.
