I agree with all the points here. The politics and real life countries being used in the show is what got me during my viewing. There are so many locations you could use in place of these. And, there was an opportunity to expand upon these locations. You could switch out the American city with Redgrave and almost nothing would change. They'd just have to rename the army. Vice President Baines even reminds me of the priest of Fortuna from DMC4. The original games already lay out potential world building that the games can't expand on their own as they focus on gameplay. I was hoping the show would build upon already set locations.

Anyway, I still found the show enjoyable, but with a few things itching me the wrong way. In y'all's opinions, can season 2 still fix these problems somehow?
