The Legend of Vox Machina (TV Series) Shadows at the Gates (2022) User Reviews

Series is picking up speed

[trayjanus · 9/10 · 5 February 2022]

This is the first episode that feels solid and well-developed throughout.

It also has the feel of an actual D&D session. I can imagine the tension and angst as the players try to figure out how to defeat their enemy.

Getting Good

While I had a few problems with the first few episodes with some of the jokes not quite landing and some of the pacing just not feeling right, this episode finally hit a home run. Beautifully animated, good balance of humor, action, and even elements of horror, every part of this episode just left me with a big nerdy grin on my face.

It was good BUT...

Ok, I am a huge CR fan, it literally saved me in a bad time for me so I give them huge props, but this episode dropped the ball hardcore.

Seeker Aasum.

If you know then you know. They missed a pivotal npc part. It started one of the best connections with the group and they didn't add it into the show.

Yes you can say that they ran out of time or w/e, but it's like with Vax and her "headaches" she gets but doesn't know it's her primeval awareness ability? In the show she casts it enough times to know it's an ability not just a, ouch my head hits what is it?

But again, great show but to me they had all this money from Kickstarter and extra time, missing that part of this episode to me was a huge mistake.
