Same for me really, I'm bigger on plot, and worldbuilding is definitely way up there. I'm really big on interesting characters too though, and that is where foundation has fallen short for me a bit (although I enjoyed the first one a good bit). The constant time and character shifts combined with the short books make them a little lower for me due to the lack of characters to connect with.

Ya I get that, I kind of feel like 3 Body Problem trilogy hit the same marks in terms of pros and cons. Awesome plot, intrigue and worldbuilding, but tough to really latch on to a single character in that sense. They were able to sort of bring characters along with the jumps in time, which helped, but its just one of the trade offs for massive time jumps in plots.
