I just started watching Gundam 0079 and the last ~15 episodes have been on Earth. It's getting kind of boring desu. Can anyone tell me if that's the norm for the Gundam series or can I expect more action in space in the future?

A lush environment full of animals, plants, beautiful geography and a sky is boring. I wanna go to an empty void instead.

They will eventually go back to space. Because they were rushed, the White Base touched down in Zeon-controlled territory and have had to deal with constant attacks since, with little hope of reinforcements or resupplies.

The part where they go back to space is the best because it manages to simultaneously build up from all the characterization and the military operations from the previous section and go in a completely different, unexpected direction with all the Newtype stuff.
Also 0079 has no boring episodes, not even le epin salt one, and you're a pleb.

It's not that unreasonable. It'd be like watching Star Trek TOS but every episode is made up entirely from the fight scenes in Arena. I started watching the series because I thought it was sci-fi.
I don't think the story itself is dull and the most interesting parts have been on Earth so far (like Amuro's reunion with his mother, the Char vs. Garma politicking or Ryu dying, which is the last episode I saw). But the backdrops remind me too much of something like Dragon Ball or Pokemon.

I get where you're coming from but all of the best Star Trek episodes, and sci-fi in general, take place on a planet, not in space or on a spaceship.

Sure but most of the time those were alien planets and that's what made things interesting, not just Earth. I guess seeing so much Gundam promotional material before finally starting the series made me expect something a little more majestic than fighting on some rocks all the time.

If you're this filtered by a low budget it only gets worse. If you want to experience the majestic insanity of Char Aznable then keep watching.

I am intrigued to see what happens with him, he was one of the highlights in the beginning. Surprisingly he's been absent for a pretty long time. Thankfully the other Zeon antagonists have been entertaining enough as substitutes but he was the best.

Gundam is more influential than good.
Out of all the famous 70s directors you went with fucking Tomino lol
