Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted December 30, 2019 I watched this over the weekend and I didn't know what to expect going into this since I still haven't played any of the games. It was a great series though. Alot of fantasy, action, some monsters. It was all enjoyable. The only thing that threw me off initially is the storytelling. Its all over the place at first with time lines, jumping forward and back like Lost.. until I realized everytime the show focused on a specific character its their specific timeline they are referencing. As the show goes back and forth some events are repeated except in the perspective of a different character leading up to the end of season 1 where all the character's stories converge. Season 2 shouldn't be as convoluted and should be more straight forward. Overall its basically every character's origin story all told simultaneously. And it worked well because of how the different characters overlap with each other's stories at different points in time. I thought it was extremely well done.

Pchan 5,162 Report post Posted May 13, 2021 I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this too. It wasn't a waste of time and you're right - S1 is all about world building and the hope for S2 is that they can push the story forward. Good cast, production and overall storytelling so far. I have not played the game(s) or read the book(s). Quote I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.
