Incredible series based on video games are coming out. Until now, the world of the seventh art and video games together had not left many works to remember. However, now this has changed, since we constantly come across quite interesting works in this regard. More and more companies are encouraged to do video game series and the results are truly wonderful.
An animated series that changes everything
There are two cities facing each other since the beginning of time. Piltover is a rich, utopian city with great development. For her part, Zaun is poor, uncouth and oppressed. In this, they invent a new drug called Shimmer that is capable of turning those who consume it into powerful monsters. For her part, Piltover has developed a technology that turns anyone who uses it into a magician. With the tensions always existing between both cities, it will not take long for things to explode and with it the lives of the protagonists of the series.
Arcanewhich is what the series is called, is inspired by the universe of League of Legends to give even more background to the video game champions. Although the title may seem to not have a particularly good world construction, the truth is that the series shows that It has many interesting plots to offer. In fact, she’s quite valuable for just that.
The first thing that catches your attention Arcane It is its animation style, dark and dirty, but at the same time incredibly beautiful and original, thus giving an identity to the series that it would not have if it used a more realistic or more cartoonish style. We know very well that Riot Games can make absolutely incredible CGI videos, but on this occasion it was not necessary, rather They have achieved excellence with their own style and much more marked.
On the other hand, we find that the plot is very well carried out. It looks like a – darker – version of History of two citiesby Dickens, but focusing on characters who have a lot to offer and who reflect different ways of being and thinking much more realistic than what we are used to seeing in fantasy stories. Characters like Vi or Jinx demonstrate a very well-crafted solidity and have earned their creators a lot of praise from critics and the public.
Finally, Arcane It shows us that you can make an excellent adaptation of a video game. For years, these types of productions have focused on cinema bringing us movies of mediocre quality, when it has been fully demonstrated that the true vein was in the series, where the plots could be developed with much more ease and time. Now there are series coming out like The Last of Us or as fallout that show that the path is really clear.
In fact, it competes with both to see which is the best adaptation of a video game. Each in its own style, the story of Joel and Ellie seeks a more mature perspective, fallout always oscillates between drama and satire and in Arcane They focus on very human characters and an original way of showing the plot with great animation.
We can watch the series in the Netflix catalog if we have a subscription to the platform.
