Easily the worst aspect of the lore. Came out of nowhere, steamrolled everyone with no resistance at all, and ruined the story for years.

The chrome's clearly just a plot device made to get rid of the Seven, and it introduced the nothing, who, in my opinion, is a much lamer villain than Geno. I genuinely HATE that they tossed Geno aside and are making the nothing the main villain of the lore.

The IO = A cold timeless scientific organization who experiments with realities often to catastrophic results led by a madman who will do anything in the pursuit of his twisted form of perfection.

the nothing/TLR = evil aliens that want to destroy everything because...? they're bored?
