Its crazy how some people are saying this is just a stupid gimmick, but they loved Ulitmate aliens! And some other people are saying Ben is too overpowered, when they are the same ones who complained Ben was too weak before. Seriously people, nothing is ever going to please you, so please just stop trying to make everyone else as miserable as you.

Your over generalising of people is making me miserable, can you stop?

Personally, I never thought Ben was particularly weak, he's the main character, but there's a reason he has a team of people helping him, its very rare that Ben has to do something alone. The only time I can really call Ben over powered was when he had that sword Azmuth made cause that thing was insanely powerful.

The ultimate aliens I wasn't particularly fond of, but I wasn't particularly bothered by either, though I do think it works better as Albedo's thing than as Ben's staple.

Similarly so, I like Skurd's personality, I find him amusing, but I don't like how they've basically tried to force him on the audience as something Ben 'needs' to succeed when he's done fine for 3 series so far without him.

I'm not trying to make people miserable, if someone likes Skurd, that's fine, I don't care, but on a topic open to people's thoughts on him, I'm equally justified in expressing why I don't like him to the 20+ comments lauding him as being cool and awesome and all that stuff.
