Message: <blockquote data-quote="Levistus's_Leviathan" data-source="post: 8530273" data-attributes="member: 7023887">This show was made for people that enjoy Critical Role. It is not aimed at kids (just look at the rating, or watch the first 30 seconds of the show), is not aimed at people that don't enjoy Critical Role, and isn't aimed at every D&D player ever. This is not a "D&D Cartoon", it's a "Critical Role TV Show". You don't have to like this show, but the fact that it was made for people that enjoy Critical Role is not a flaw. The fact that it's mature is not a flaw. The fact that you don't like it is not a flaw. The fact that it is animated is not a flaw. It relying on common tropes is not a flaw. It just isn't aimed for you. Animated shows do not have to be "for kids" (I would have assumed this myth would have been dispelled by now, especially with recent adult cartoons, like Castlevania, Arcane, and Invincible, being popular in the past few years), D&D-based shows do not have to be universally liked by everyone in the D&D community, and just because it's an animated show based off of a game that kids play does not mean that it should/has to be consumable for kids. The show was made for people that like Critical Role. It was started by a Kickstarter that many Critters supported, after all. If you don't already like Critical Role or their style, this show was not made for you. To assume that it would be is a bit . . . foolish, in my opinion. Again, if you don't enjoy the show . . . just don't watch it. Don't go onto boards discussing it and call it "horrid garbage" because it wasn't catered to your tastes. Don't yuck the yum of others, or profess that the show is bad because it isn't consumable by everyone that could possibly watch a TV show. It's just not for you.</blockquote>
