Agreed. Honestly so far I do love the game of SC3 and all, but not because of the story. The touches like people having real life conversations, that's great for mood, but the main characters are just too bland.
Side Show Bob: The prison conditions are obsurd! The book reading hour normally consists of me being beaten with books! *shows bruises* These are from the latest Tom Clancy, though I admit it is a great deal less painful than reading them, am I right folks?
But yeah, it has it's moments. One fun part of the game was me sneaking around two guards outside. One of them was talking about a very anime styled fear of lightning. He went on about his childhood when the Americans attacked his home town timing their attacks to the lightning, so whenever the lightning struck a few more people would be dead. That's some good stuff there and all, but it's kind of sad to see unimportant side characters be more developed than the main cast.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
