It’s like watching a DnD campaign but much better. Also feels far more mature compared to anime.

    I recall some furor with the Kickstarter for this project. They made it so backers would only get to see the first two episodes, like, twice, on Amazon for free and then tough shit, pay for Prime to see the rest of the episodes you paid to create.

    Anyways, I gave it a shot and bounced off instantly because it did that obnoxious thing cartoons for grownups do where it was full of piss and shit and fucking and cussing to make sure you, the audience, knew that this wasn’t no children’s show, this was adult animation.

          If you liked the rest of it outside of the piss and shit and fucking most of that gets toned down a lot after the first few episodes, the cussing is pretty common throughout though. It’s similar to how the Orville was Family Guy in space for the first half of season 1 that he had sold the executives on before just making it a Trek series.

      Lol that they kickstartered it, good way to steal money from fans. Amazon clearly has no issue throwing away money on risky shows so it definitely wasn’t necessary.

      Watch their live streams of their D&D campaign this is inspired by. These a lot of stuff like that in there. It’s not a “cartoon for adults” thing, just the humor of some adults playing D&D.

      I haven’t seen the show though so I can’t comment on if it’s more frequent than in the actual game. I wouldn’t doubt it is, because it’s significantly accelerated so most of the game is not shown.
