I feel like it leans more into the latter as a kind of tech industry comedy. It stars Rob McElhenney who played Mac in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and I feel like a lot of the humor his character adds is present in Mythic Quest.
I wanted to share this because I was pleasantly surprised by Mythic Quest and I feel like other people who are looking for a lighthearted comedy to watch might enjoy it.
To be honest the first time I watched S1, I sort of read him as more of a deuteragonist, he’s so ridiculous. I only really warmed to him once Poppy does.
There are so many characters with preposterous personalities - him, CW, Brad… for me Poppy’s trajectory is the A plot and the testers are the main B plot.
That doesn’t mean it’s what the writers necessarily intended, though.
