    Yes as you mentioned earlier, Riot is a music label that uses LOL to advertise their songs.

      Memes aside, they made multiple entire songs and music videos, hired extremely talented vocalists from both America and Korea, and produced absolute bangers just to advertise cosmetic SKINS for characters in their game. And it worked. K/DA Ahri is one of the most purchased skins in League history.

    You really should do a reaction to K/DA "Pop/stars". The music video for the virtual kpop group by RIOT. It has over 500 million views and is visually amazing as well as being a bop of a song. Again, you don't have to worry at all about copyright for the K/DA music. There are hundreds of full length and unobscured reactions to it on the internet. K/DA has 5 or 6 music videos on the official RIOT youtube channel.

    Its absolutely wild what kind of stuff goes on behind the scenes. And you could probably guess that Arcane went through a lot in production. But the multiple near death scenarios this thing ran into is crazy and its even crazier that they managed to bounce back multi times. And I know you don't know the other stuff surrounding league, but go take a look at their UA-cam channel. "Popstars" and "Rise" are some of their most popular videos with absolutely mind-bending view counts, AND THEY GOT CREATED JUST TO KEEP FORTICE AROUND. Like that so insane to me that 2 videos that are super high quality in their own right, and we as players thought they were awesome in their own right, only to find out they got made out of "desperation"
    And as an animator myself, that last line is too damn true. Animation is a MEDIUM not a genre. You could make a comedy, a drama, an action film, or whatever. And make it live action or animated, and obviously they each have their own benefits and challenges. But right now 9/10 times when you talk to someone about animation they think of cartoons or just Disney and Pixar movies, when it can be so much more. And Arcane is the fking prime example of it, its a stupidly uniquely animated show that is better crafted than a number of other live action dramas.

      Like, if someone asked me, “what that movie is showing is impossible, show me that in the real world”, I’d show that documentary and turn off the screen at that precise scene at the premiere party.

    They always said :" Arcane is a loveletter to our player community" (because we asked for this for over 10 years now - we know the potential of the lore) If others enjoy it as well it is a plus but they wanted primarily to give their community something back for their loyalty and always active feedback. That's why they wanted it to be so good - it is a thank you to the community and the community wouldn't get the message if they delivered a shitty show (well, the league community doesn't hold back when it comes to critcs so they obviously wanted to spare themseves that disaster XD ). They know their community very well because most of them are a part of it themselves. They also play the game regularly at the company(department tournaments and stuff) and are really connected to the characters which is why I think the story could delevope into such a good plot. They don't work with people who are not open to try out the game at least and get the characters to know in the game. And you see that even "the projects on the fly" can turn out into gold ! They stalled the time with the Worlds song "Rise" and the developements of their kpop group K/DA (which I highly recommend to watch!). The managed to turn a disaster into platinum(received this year) in regards to K/DA which is absolutely crazy !
    The making of this show is an insane story itself and shows that you shouldn't stop on great ideas just because you feel down or stuck for a moment. Don't give up and believe in yourself and your team and you can reach great heights! I really hope this translates to other companies as well which take it as a good example how to work on pioneer projects in order to make the best of it.
    And Christian is very right in saying :"If you make something without pressure at all, you'll make something people forget". In every great project a certain amount of pressure is necessary because otherwise it gets sloppy or you never finish. Obviously you shouldn't crush people but a healthy pressure at certain times is necessary to get the best out of everyone. Balance is key here.

    The reason they are not confident, is well of course because it's extremely hard to produce, and they are figuring everything on the fly. But also mainly because the LoL community is very vocal when they are not happy (and are often unhappy). These Riot employees know that very well and I bet they felt a lot of pressure to try to satisfy the fans

    Considering how good Arcane turned out to be, I think we need to credit Riot as a company for stopping production when they did. I can't imagine their original story being as good as what they ultimately turned out after Riot put up the stop sign, which tells me Riot was correct in their initial assessment.

    The way I understood it it's that they were going to let go the employees but then they asked Riot if there was something else they could give Fortiche to work on while they waited for the green light on Arcane.
    But I may got it wrong, so Idk if they actually let go employees or not.
    Btw you don't have to mute/cover/cut the video, it's on Riot UA-cam channel so don't worry.

    To see you react to the bts of the series and put in the effort to film, edit, and upload really shows how passionate you are. Not a lot of reactors I've watched do this and for that, thank you. It's been torture waiting for the next season so having new content about Arcane even indirectly is awesome.
