    He says there’s music in season 2, but damned if I can recall any of it. I can still list the songs from season 1, they were that memorable. Hell, the only song I do remember in season 2 is “Our Love,” which is from season 1.

    And the League product placement in season 2 is off the chain. Everyone has 4 weapons and 6 outfits and 3 haircuts. Ambessa’s a main character because she’s in the game now. Do you wanna play as Sheriff Cait or Commander Cait? Does she have the Noxian training buff so she can wrassle people?

    Season 1 was lightening in a bottle. It’ll never happen again. Unless you really like playing League, you can skip whatever comes next.

      Yeah I think they got all the budget and relative freedom but told to do somehow exactly what season 1 was.

      It really lost what made the music of season 1 interesting when they were there for emphasis on emotion of the characters and instead became a constant barage of boring music videos.

      The game skin swapping and character progression is a bit much too. Often feels they are doing something because they want the story to go there instead of because it made sense.
      I just want it to end with them all getting teleported to the battlefield with someone saying “so what are we? Some kinda league of legends?” And wipe.
