Dominic Baez Seattle Times Nov 17
An enjoyable enough return to the world of Exandria, even if it doesn’t live up to its stellar predecessor. Go to Full Review

Nicholas D @Lowkeywhacker 1d Huge fan of DnD but this was a bit perverted, not funny, and none of the characters were likeable. See more Allister B @Bakercompany Jan 23 I tried to watch this six different times after putting my kids to bed and fell asleep every time during the first episode. Maybe this gets better later on but when I can't get past the first episode after multiple attempts it's just not worth my time. See more Jan C Jan 21 It was pretty good, nice to see more of the worlld of Vox machina, but i would have given it more stars if it were not for the old trope were everybody is lesbian and bi, that is getting really old and worne out. See more Elijah F. @efarris313 Jan 21 Great watch drew me in right away See more Hilarion A @H0kv5 Jan 13 The Mighty Nein began as lightning in a bottle, chaotic, sharp witted, and emotionally volatile in exactly the right way. Early in the campaign, it was a showcase of character driven storytelling at a high level. Every member arrived damaged, guarded, and morally gray, and that friction powered the narrative. These were not heroes chasing destiny. They were people stumbling into it while arguing, joking, and occasionally undermining themselves. That intimacy is what made the early arcs feel alive.
