Mythic Quest

It hasn’t been around for very long, but Apple TV+ has already gained a reputation for substandard first episodes. Plenty of people were turned off by the rote prestige of The Morning Show, for example, which meant that they missed out on a great series. And the first episode of See was also very bad. Admittedly, that’s because that entire series is bad, but still.Mythic Quest Season 1 Download.

And now to that list we can add Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet. At first glimpse, Mythic Quest seems like a generic workplace comedy. Set in the office of a hit streaming game, we quickly meet a megalomaniac boss played by Rob McElhenney, his put-upon chief coder, his pompous story designer, a couple of testers and a 14-year-old YouTuber whose whims dictate the life and death of the games. On the basis of the first episode, it could be set anywhere – an advertising agency, a TV show, a paper factory.Working against it, too, is Silicon Valley. Comparisons between the two are rife, presumably because they both have computers in them, and Mythic Quest cannot hope to come out of that fight looking good. One was a beloved HBO sitcom that ran like a finely honed drama and unleashed a flurry of new comedic talent into the world. The other one is a side project by the third best one out of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.Mythic Quest Season 1 Download.

And yet, as with The Morning Show, Mythic Quest quickly blooms into something else. A much more conventional show than Always Sunny – nobody shouts over each other, nobody gets addicted to crack, nobody bursts naked out of a leather sofa – Mythic Quest quickly establishes a range that knowingly plays to each end of the spectrum. Yes, there are plenty of Silicon Valley-style jokes about the midpoint between tech and base human behaviour. The first episode is largely devoted to working out whether or not the game should implement shovels, given that users will only draw penis-shaped ditches with them. But then, at the same time, there is episode five.
