I still want him to be part of this show.
I binge-watched the entire season in about 3 days.

I'm thankful that I didn't binge. This is a great series for letting the thoughts stew for a week. As to your second point, I'm N not fully convinced he's out of the show. We have no idea who he was constructing in his secret lab. I think he was readying his replacement.

Have you also noticed the Westworld logo in the building seems to be different in many episodes (which indicates the time jumps).

I had a problem with the way she so easily manipulated the douchebag tech guy. I can understand the first guy she swindled...he was clearly a manipulation waiting to happen. But the dickhead guy...he was such a stereotypical asshole, I couldn't buy into her being able to convince him to keep following along. Being a typical bully that prays on the weak techs, I thought he would have pulled the plug (figuratively and literally) on her the first chance he had. And that chance came when she demanded that they up all her Ability Scores (intelligence, allegiance etc). He had the perfect opportunity to literally go to zero on all and power her down right then and there. But he went along and made her super everything... I guess I'm just overthinking it.

I don't mind the mystery/puzzle box formula, but I think they hamstrung themselves a little bit by saving every big twist for the last episode or two. Bernard could have learned that he was modeled after Arnold much earlier, and we could have learned more about both The Man in Black's true identity and Ford's plan. I would have liked to follow the implications of those reveals rather than having them all crammed into the final hour with no time to truly process any of them. And in this day and age where Reddit solves everything immediately, making the story all about mystery in an attempt to blow people's minds with a big twist (or several, in this case) is almost pointless.

Watching the characters struggle with the nature of consciousness and their limited understanding of reality was fascinating from a philosophical standpoint, and I hope it's something that continues as the series goes on.

Meh, I came away from the series not impressed enough to really care where they take it for the next season.
