In my opinion, SC3 has a lot of unrealized potential that has not fully materialized on any of the first three albums (even though "Book M" came pretty close).

Sure enough. Imho, the SC3 have a really epic potential that hasn't been totally exploited so far, probably due to financial cappabilites and certainly not for a lack of ideas. The only thing is that so far, all their albums sound to me like a promising sketch of what's to come. I personally hope that this new trilogy does not follow the path of "Book M", but this is obviously a personal appreciation. It may be a more elaborate, studio-madness recording, but in the end the electronic brushtrokes sound really cheesy to me.
