The visuals were great, but the story frustrated me. They brought up a lot of interesting ideas, none of which were followed up on like they could have been.

And did anyone else see that NOMAD machine as a giant floating plot hole in the sky? Like, it was doing pinpoint strikes on AI, but AI was everywhere in New Asia. Every city, every town. I thought maybe they weren’t carpet bombing because they didn’t want to kill humans, but they killed a bunch of humans anyway, especially at the end.

The other detail was the kid. She was like chekhov’s gun just hanging around. I kept waiting for her to do something, but it didn’t happen until the very end. I get she wasn’t powerful enough yet, but just wanted to see her do more.
