• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.5

I'm fully aware this probably wasn't marketed toward me, but I still found this ultimately very slow and boring. There were a few areas of peaked plot story, but the valleys were SO low and long that it almost wasn't worth it.
