[ALL] Just my opinion but I don't like LIS2's voice acting and dialogue

SpoilerDiscussion

Just my totally honest opinion. No disrespect to the people involved in making the game, I LOVED before the storm and the first LIS, but this game has so far left me bitter and disappointed. Ep1 is ok, but honestly not that great especially when it comes to setting up the story... Ep2 is worse for so many reasons and 3 and 4 are a bit better but ultimately the game has awful dialogue so far, bad voice acting, and a really uninteresting story with forgettable characters that you can't get attached to. Good ideas on paper, poor execution. This is a franchise about super powers and we don't even get to use them... The locations are good but it's all too much crammed in too quickly to really enjoy anything or get to know the people and before you know it you're 3 months ahead after a time jump and have to read Sean's diary for about an hour before properly beginning episode 3. And Daniel just gets more and more annoying to the point that I actually don't care what happens to him in the end. I really hope ep5 will put things right but I doubt it.
Now I get that I'll get plenty of hate for this. But seriously, does anyone actually think that LIS2 is better than BTS or LIS1? If so why? Please help me fall back in love with this franchise because LIS2 has killed it for me for so many reasons. I don't have any emotional attachment to the characters. And I wish they would include Max as a cameo (or Max AND Chloe as a cameo) based on our choice when we started the game about whether we saved arcadia bay or not.

The game is beautiful, and I don't actually "hate it", but I just don't feel the same connection to the characters or their story like I did in the earlier games and it's all down to the poor voice acting and weak dialogue for me. I feel like the only thing that will save this game is if an older Max appears and does a rewind of Daniel's death or something and then dies in the process to save Sean's brother.... ugh

tldr; I hate that I hate this game so far because I love LIS...
