Its worse with the Expanse because of how they try to be as true to the universe as possible. You got them doing battles at extreme ranges and its gonna be hard keeping up with what would be specks of lights of enemy ships. Like the ranges for their weapons are 10,000km for missiles, 1,000k for rail guns, 1-5K for PDCs. Couple that with the speeds these things are moving at the battles aren't as easy to follow compared to the dogfighting close ups ppl are used to from other Hollywood Sci-Fi movies. But it's what you get when you put an Physics and Electrical Engineer grad in charge of the show demanding these things. lol

I had to slow things down a lot to catch what was happening when the Roci blew by the Koto and then the Serral Mal.
