That's another thing. In AF, UA, and OV, it did felt as if the writers were just doing certain stuff, like space travel, just to put in something that looks cool and/or their mindset being because there's aliens in the Ben 10 series, they have to make it more of a space opera because of that. Well no, that shouldn't really be much of the case here. The OS pretty much kept things contained with it's setting and I think that helped keep the show focused on its main story as well as also keeping things from getting too complex and over complicating. The most where the OS had gone into space was in Secret of the Omnitrix and even then the setting was nicely well contained there in order to keep the focus on the main story. We don't need to have like 50 different settings just because there's aliens and thus Ben 10 needs to go into space. It doesn't need to be like Star Wars. More is not always better. Sometimes it's a problem to have so much content because it bloats the series up and that's another problem that I have with the sequel shows. There's too much in them because the freakin writers keep adding so much stuff. That can also hurt the mystery, danger, and power aspect of the series as well. The more about the universe we learn about, the less it appears as mysterious and dangerious. As for the power aspect, because Ben keep gaining more and more aliens that just further makes him more powerful, it makes his enemies less powerful against him. That shouldn't happen for the reboot. Keep the setting contained on Earth with very little of space and space traveling being involved. Don't add too much content and too many elements into the series. Do maintain the mystery, danger, and power that the OS did have.
