So I’m completely oblivious about League of Legends, except that I know it’s a tower defense game. I’ve never played it myself, but I am an old gamer in my late 30’s.
My wife and I started watching Arcane today, and watched two episodes. God damn, I’m hooked!! Being a grown up, we had to stop, as we have work, and can’t wait to watch more this weekend. But I just can’t imagine how this world is inspired by LoL. Can someone explain if there actually is a story in LoL?
You can make a movie/serie out of any content, and LOL was (is ?) pretty popular. Yes OK may-be a farming simulator the serie won’t be that great. But if you have some basic setting, and some factions competing for power you can develop in any direction
Oh, sure, but considering Arcane, it could’ve been named something else, and thus have no connection to LoL. But damn, the series is great!
Then comes the part LOL is a popular and well known brand, so doing something even remotely linked to it will drag an audience. Remember how the World war Z movie ignored the books but paid licencing fee for the title (and the associated _brand recognition)
