Yea, but if you stop and think back, the origional characters were blank slates to start with. They didn't really start to develop until Der Reise and Kino der Toten. When the introduced them we had nothing to go off of, that's why their was no backlash for them. These characters need time to develop, yea they wasted the potential with Die Rise, but when you stop and look back, they just need time to grow.
