Arcane League of Legends
SCORE: 65
Peter was telling me that paid League of
Legends players were telling people to not play the game if they liked
the television show. That got me curious about Arcane League of Legends
on Netflix. I will be completely transparent here. I have played League
of Legends before and it did not impress me very much. I am not going
into this review as one of those fanboys who gushes all about a
franchise.
The issues families will have with Arcane League of Legends are
violence, bad language, blood, lack of attire, enticement to lust,
sexual deviancy, theft, sex outside of marriage and more. Arcane League
of Legends starts with some kids breaking into a building and stealing
from a scientist. They accidentally drop a volatile object that explodes
out part of the building. From there we learn about the precarious
relationship between those living topside and those living down below.
The scientists whole goal in Arcane League of Legends is to create
Hextech. What is Hextech? Hextech is a way for magic to be used by non
magic users. They can use an item that will emulate magic. The council
of this city are trying to bring their city back into prominence. At the
same time they are trying to avoid any major missteps that will be their
entire downfall. A great example of a misstep is weaponizing Hextech.
There are numerous character deaths in Arcane League of Legends. I was a
bit surprised at how many important characters in Arcane League of
Legends were killed off. It does show a great background for Jinx.
Caitlyn in Arcane League of Legends is way different than the character
from the video game. Why were changes needed? I also found some of
Caitlyn’s choices in Arcane League of Legends to be odd.
There are nine episodes in Arcane League of Legends. The episodes are in
the forty minute range in terms of length. There is plenty of intrigue
and action in Arcane League of Legends. There are some swerves in Arcane
League of Legends that I was not expecting. I appreciated how different
characters were willing to sacrifice themselves for their friends and/or
family.
