Why the scores diverge

  • The 44-point gap reflects how much ideology steers each story on our six-dimension pass, not just vibes.

  • Lanterns highlight: Dialogue occasionally veers into messaging territory, but not overwhelmingly so.
  • Terminator Zero: New characters are generally well-developed and avoid feeling like mere tokens, providing some narrative depth beyond symbolic representation.
  • Lanterns: Characters have some depth, though elements of tokenism are present.
