I can agree with this, but that's exactly my problem. This is super cheap and lazy writing because this is what so many people were interested in. Yeah you can say that it doesn't mean things aren't happening - but why not explain the most interesting character introduced in this new trilogy to the audience? What does it add to this series from withholding this information? Just let the fans theorize or read additional crappy novels that may or may not be cannon in the future?
I had more fun watching theories of who Snoke and Rey were on Youtube than I had with this movie. Don't end Episode 7 withholding this information, setting up Episode 8 like they are going to be a giant reveal, and then do this. That's an insult to the fans.
