When I finished Transformers Prime I was totally blown away by the characters, animation, development, and the all-around plot of the series. Then I heard there was going to be a sequel, I was expecting just as good quality and the characters that I had grown to love but I was sadly disappointed in all areas.
I would not consider this a sequel to Prime. RID is directed to small children <12, the way they overly simplified the characters speech, and the moral 'lesson' learned in each episode definitely enforced this. The animation was probably the worst let down besides the butchering of the characters, a large step down from what it was, very disappointing, especially knowing the possibilities and expecting the same quality as Prime.
There are so many other things that ruined this show for me, like the Decepticons and the repetitive plot.
But as a stand-alone and the show in general, I gave it a 3 because of the poor animation, butchered characters, repetitive plot and personalities, and the overall poor quality of the show and its design. But it's catered to small children and I have to say if this wasn't meant to be a sequel to a great show and if there wasn't an audience of adults and teens that were looking forward to more of that, I would say that it was OK for a very young audience.
