I was hooked but I have a lot of thoughts that I can't fully explain atm
I honestly did not like the ending but I understand the intention behind it. I was hoping for redemption but realistically, I guess money and power will always win.One storyline that was pointless to me was guard 011. She was completely useless. She had no impact at all on anything that happened. Literally saved 1 man cause of his sick child but didn't care at all about the baby that's in the actual game.
333 also pissed me off so much. The part in the end when he went bat shit crazy and wanted to kill his daughter for money that's more than enough for all of them was just infuriating. I guess they had to show how much of an actual ahole he was for 222 to not trust him.
Tbh, the squid game was the least interesting game just like in the 1st season.

It's an okay watch but I wish they made better choices
I didn't know what it was going to be about before watching it so I was hooked after the 1st ep when they revealed what the plot was going to be. There were a lot of unexpected twists but some of them were unnecessary.Some of the ghosts also pissed me off. You'd think that you'd only be allowed to stay if you had unfinished business but some of their reasons were so petty to me.
Some parts felt flat. Some characters felt flat. And some decisions didn't make sense but it was an okay watch.

It was lacking in a lot of aspects
Not sure if it was on purpose but the acting of the lead girl was weird. I wish they got someone younger since she stood out way too much but I guess that was part of what made it obvious that she got things done.I also find it funny that it was obviously based on a webtoon since all webtoon turned drama stories have the same vibe. One part of the story kept me hooked tho. I kept trying to figure out why she was the way she was but I felt like they didn't give enough answers before the show ended.
I wish they did something more with the ending.

Too many plot holes
It started out great. Things made sense at first until they didn't. I understand that she's supposed to be a sociopath but she was also supposed to be smart, no? A lot of her choices did not make sense. A lot of the characters didn't make sense either. The sudden appearance of Moon Do-hyuk was the most random and unexplained plot point. There's just sooo many questions about who he is and what he wanted from her. Anyway, I will probably watch season 2 if they decide to make one just because I need answers to all of the holes that this series didn't fill.The redeeming factor: The actors were brilliant. Gave it -1 tho cause of the actor that played Jun-seo. I feel like they could've chosen someone else for that role.
