Yeah, Ex-Aid is boring. It is Gaim-ish but lacking the charm and creativity. The video game theme is just... eyeroll inducing. Thing is, games don't work as a theme because games are a medium. They are something that is themed, not a very good theme themselves. So that's why you end up with really cringey fake video game titles that are generic and half-assed. Plus, video games becoming real is a pretty old concept and nothing is really done with it that's very original, and having your rider theme based around something ficticious and harmless as games, where everything is fake by their nature, kinda sucks any sense of conflict out of it. At least Gaim had them based on actual warriors of different eras and not just the fruit thing. Plus the costumes themselves are so awful.

And yeah, the main guy is a total flatline acting-wise. It's pretty hard to watch.
