@triseult I was so not ready for this. The mainline show is hilariously out of touch (maybe on purpose, hard to tell?) with actual game development and culture, but nails some things IMHO.
But this was a different caliber entirely. You articulated it way better then I could have, spot on.
@triseult makes sense as a way of the writers telling wha5 happened to them while making the show...
@triseult I could definitely see the original idea being a serious show and they were asked to make a comedy

If you watch just one episode of "Mythic Quest," make it this one. You don't even need to watch the pilot to understand it as it's 100% standalone. Just keep in mind the rest of the show is in a very different tone.
This particular episode is a heartfelt meditation on the power of a creative vision and how time threatens it. It's also really well acted and written. Funny, bittersweet, and surprising.
I gotta wonder if maybe this is the show the creators wanted to make from the get-go but had to compromise their vision until it became "Mythic Quest"...
