So bad you have to see it!

I played WoW few years ago so I was kinda nostalgic to see series about MMORPG-s. I expected it to be "unrealistic", but hey, some things cannot be transfered to TV screen...

But this is just awful, I really cannot imagine that someone actually allowed this to be shot, put money in it. It has some silly/funny/kinda entertaining moments, but mostly I couldn't believe how bad it is...

Of course they had to put in moralistic lesson about sticking with friends, which I guess is a must in this kind of series.

Props look ridiculous but I guess they were going for that look.

In the end I kinda think I am targeted audience, people who play/played games, but I cannot imagine watching this now or when I was younger.

But I bet there wont be 2nd episode... If there will.. I will watch 2nd episode just for being wrong :p
