I’d say most of that is the setting, not the plot. The plot was mostly about slowly uncovering that setting, bringing a MacGuffin from A to B, and having random stuff happen along the way. Many of the character interactions felt surface level (heh) as well to me, probably because or why (as I said) I couldn’t really get into the characters.
Idk, I don’t blame you if you see it differently, but the overall narrative and character building left a bit to be desired for me.
