I was really interested in this at the start, but as it kept going it lacked depth for me. The characters and plot were quite superficial and everyone really only had one character trait or persona. I wish that there was more development and complexity between the characters, as what they said/thought/did was all the same and predictable. I like the idea but I think it needed a little more direction.
