Despite issues with the overall season and story arc, the plot of this episode, and whatever (I personally enjoyed it and am thankful the "War" is over), this sums up my feelings about "Midnight". Anyone else feel the same?
While I sat through all cutscenes and dialog the first play through, on replays I skipped cutscenes (thank you for making them skippable this time!) and F-F-Fed my way through the dialog (I've read it already), but this was aggravating to me as all get-out. I know, voiceovers have to finish blah blah blah, but still...SHUT UP, SELA!!!
EDIT: P.S. This isn't meant as a slam on Denise Crosby. Just the script/character.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

But yeah, you run into that little speedbump when speed replaying on mulitple characters.
Not sure I can blame the actors... maybe there's some horrible voice director directing them to read it that way?
But yes, to the OP... Sela... shut up! Just put her in a pantsuit and you'd think it was Hillary Clinton talking.
It just falls back to the aggravation of not being able to skip cutscenes. Now you can, but you can't skip the little "flash cards" on the side of the screen.
...and Sela's pessimism and nihilism over the whole situation, "our mission", etc., when it turns out
The "wait for the NPC to finish" as well as "run to every corner/platform on the map to complete your objective" is annoying, but it's padding. The game/metrics require you to stay in those missions as long as possible and those are rather non-invasive methods of guranteeing that effect, I won't hold that against Cryptic.

I'm glad someone else felt that way too, was starting to think it was just me.
