    When I played LOL I thought the lore was cool but the game was miserable. I tend to hate MMOs. I found this out after LOL, CS, and TFT2.

    Arcane was better than playing for me, by a long-shot.

    I keep trying to finish season two but I think I got watch paralysis. It’s so good but my attention span for shows and movies is almost non-existent and I’d rather watch PekinWoof destroy high elo on YouTube. So I don’t. 🤷‍♂️

    I haven’t watched it yet, which my gf finds weird with how much I used to play.

    But for me LoL is about the game, the mechanics, the strategy, the Worlds. Arcane looks like a nice show, but it only shares characters names and settings.

      It’s the best TV I’ve seen since The Last of Us. They did an outstanding job with everything. I have never played the game though, so I’m evaluating it purely on its merit as a standalone show.

        Thanks for sharing! The show looks very good indeed, but I’m curious what other LoL players are thinking about it as an “adaptation”
