Spiderman (from the hit Sam Raimi movie Spiderman 2) standing on the right holding a finger up in the air reprimandingly.

A dialogue bubble coming out of him on the left that says “Don’t talk to me or my family unless you’ve watched Arcane”.

Arcane is a beautifully animated 2-season-long Netflix show with phenomenal character writing, immersive world building and a noteworthy soundtrack. It’s about to air its final episodes this weekend and as a certified nobody, I highly recommend watching it.

      I looked into it because the show is so amazing. The game does not look amazing. It looks boring, frustrating, and basic.

    I kind of wish this beautiful animation, huge effort, high budget and excellent storytelling hadn’t been the product of a fucking Riot game. That company, its business model and its players are so toxic the success of the Arcane series feels hollow to me.

      I played the game once and immediately dropped it, but Arcane had me gripped all the way through. The people who worked on the show absolutely deserve the praise.

    I also highly recommend watching it! The fight scenes are awesome and the animation is soooo fluid. Such a good example of adapting a game’s world to a series

    I watched the Linkin Park video. Does that count?

    Any way to purchase the series instead? I canceled Netflix when they added a subscription tier that shows ads to people who pay.

    I don’t want to support a streaming service whose customers are advertisers instead of viewers.

    I hate that it has characters that do a lot of stupid things, just like real people.

    The combat scenes are awesome though.
