Castlevania animated series is also in the broad "good" category, if we must sigh at the writer somewhat (Warren Ellis for the series before the current one). Dragon Age TV series is like... borderline. I'd say it was more "average" than good myself.TLOU TV series I'd say doesn't count because it's just a retelling of the story of the game, but if you disagreed that's extremely well-regarded.Be very interesting to see the Henry Cavill-attached 40K series and whether that's good.Warcraft movie was sadly only kind of bleh. It wasn't terrible though, imho, which is kind of an achievement. Are there any good Warcraft books? I know there are a lot of Warcraft books, but I know nothing about them.The Mass Effect and Dragon Age books range from the okay to the utterly terrible (c.f. the legendary Kai Leng book).Whaaaaaaaaaaa? I did not know this. Explains a lot about the total milquetoast (in the books as well) lead though.We could also add the legendary light novel series and I believe manga and anime, Record of the Lodoss War, which started out as actual-play of a D&D campaign (Japan was publishing actual-plays in zines back in the '80s quite regularly).The might lead us the Critical Role TV show, the name of which escapes me, (mid, sadly - but not bad! Watchable, imho!) which is of course directly based on a couple of D&D campaigns.</blockquote>
