I ditched somewhere around S3. It wasn't like Ready Player One, where I felt ... milked ... but it was close to it. Gen X, mostly ignored, is still cynical enough to know when someone is trying to play them, and that's alright.

Don't get me wrong, some utility exists in the selection of earlier settings, namely not having cell phones, so I am sympathetic to that from the needs of the writers, but it would be nice not to have this stuff laid on with a trowel.

Ready Player One was a deliberately over the top nostalgia fest ... Ready Player Two was where I felt played/milked.
