Well, I voted all because there was more than one answer that fit. Although the community doesn't quite define Bionicle for me (though it may help now), answer 1 was the only one that we seem to have lost, IMO.

But that's not the point. The point is, I agree on the mystery part. I saw your post and Bink has replied, asking if this mystery really is what makes it a great mix. We need to reply to that and tell him things like what you just mentioned here.

I totally agree on the MoMN's real name, and how there are still some things that don't need to be delved into. There are also mysteries that would be cool to work around, but LEGO does not--like maybe having a Toa team of the other elements (sonics, iron, magnetism, etc); that would add to the story/environment/things yet explored. But instead we stick to the six elements we've always known (not that it's terrible).

But lo, in the end, Lego will not listen to us.

I haven't even followed the story since 2005ish, so I don't know the origins of the Bohrok. If they're really that bad, I'm glad I don't know.

About "Teridax"... yeah, I definitely agree on that. Creating an entire Brotherhood of Makuta watered down the original, real Makuta's image. And I would have preferred that he remained unnamed, but if Greg HAD to name him, why couldn't it be a Polynesian-esque name? Just for him? I don't mind these poorly disguised English words on other characters, but Makuta?

What bugs me more than the story, though, is the sets, and how they've gone from innovative, incorporating cool functions (see: Rahi, Boxor, Bahrag) to sets with no functions whatsoever. Unfortunately that is what kids today are like. People want to rush straight ahead to the finished set, shoot some flashy missiles for a few minutes, "pose" them on a shelf and then go back to their consoles for the rest of the day. LEGO has to cater for this generation as best they can if they want to make money and unfortunately for us this is the way forward.

>or the origin of the Bohrok(which, as it is, really sucks, thanks Greg)

Wait, he revealed that? YES IT WASN'T RUINED FOR ME.

>It's a multi-choice poll

Now I found out. >> Oh well I voted MOCing. and glad to see it is in second over the storyline. =]

It used to be the first option and that's what kept me with BIONICLE. In the last few years, it's fallen apart IMO. :/

Now the story's gone all over the place, all the mystery is gone.

As a result, my interest in it is almost non-existant now.

They should just stop with the Matoran Universe for a while. Wait a couple years and then be like OH NOES MAKUTA IN MATA NUI'S BODY IS HERE TO RUIN THE DAY!
