Ugh, you can't have actors say lines of dialogue to a room of people without explaining WHICH person in that room they're talking to!
Murderbot is threatening Gurathin, but new listeners would think he's threatening Mensah, as she was the last person to speak.
Poor script writing. You can drop the descriptors around dialogue if the dialogue is between only two characters, but that won't work for groups!

The main actor seems to have finally realized he isn't playing Peter Parker. 🙄👍
The audio design is good, but the acting is...not bad, but under developed. Makes me realize how much character work Kevin Free did for his performance.

Why does Mensa sounds like she's in her twenties?? She's an older woman in a leadership position, she should be 40 minimum. 😑

Again, but with the full cast versions now.
The new actor for Murderbot is a little...perky. 😑
