I had really high hopes until Vanessa shows up. Then everything gets depressing and shitty. Coincidence? I think not.
Nia and Vanessa are both incredibly dimwitted and short sighted for what they get away with. The writing around their stories lacks the depth of all of the rest of the characters, despite both of them ending up being major players. Nia's story is a bit better written, mostly because there's some actual motivation and a little bit of character development. But Vanessa is almost entirely redundant and forces the plot forward at an unnatural pace, with pointlessly long lectures about things that the player (presumably) already knows, agrees with, or is actively trying to accomplish, and renders large swaths of the story moot.
The PC spent nearly 3/4 of the story gaining social standing and political positioning, for what? A giant plot hole? Law enforcement androids exist all over the city, the protest should have been quelled immediately with one order from the mayor that couldn't be disobeyed. And then they just get deus ex'd out of there by Android, who they could have used to safely get the message out to begin with.
Cornwall knows Lin, the only logical continuation of the story is that the hotel gets raided by the military, everyone gets arrested and charged with seditious conspiracy, the elves get hung, Android and Ally get powered off and liquidated, Autumn's father and sister get excommunicated from the church, and the PC gets deported back to the Capitol where he's executed for attempting to start a revolution.
Too much current day social commentary with no nuance and not enough babies with Ashley.
