(3) you say we pay for the experience then your company is selling unfinished product which deprives your customers from enjoying the product they spent their hard working money on. How can you seriously allow this?

You’re making a crucial mistake here, in that you want the story to be about what you want the story to be about. And I get that. But this is storytelling, it isn’t a Democracy.

Every month, we make our best effort to tell great stories and to entertain you enough whereby you come back again the following month. That’s the exchange in a nutshell right there–you buy your ticket and you take the ride. But you don’t get to drive.

You’re upset that “the main PLOT was Henry bringing back the O5, and there wasn’t any resolution.” Which sounds to me like you didn’t like this particular story and wanted it to be over, done, swept under the carpet and moved on from. Which is fine and fair, that’s your opinion–but that’s not the story that we’re telling, either then or now, I’m afraid. (I would also argue that the return of the O5 wasn’t a PLOT per se so much as the inciting incident of a bunch of stories.)

Regardless, every month you get to make the same exact choice: is this worth my money and my time? We’re going to work like crazy to insure that it is, but if you don’t feel that way, there are all sorts of other books you could read instead, to say nothing of all of the other entertainment options open to you. Our readership votes with their wallets and with their feet, as Joe Q says.
