Ep. 4 is perfectly in line with the others, except the ending suggests something is finally going to happen.
It would be easier for me to continue watching if the leads were relatable and the introduction had more stakes.
But since the first three showed everyday life, trying to add fluff to salvage lousy dialogue and unlikable characters, you must consciously decide to force yourself to continue watching.
Still no immersion, though. But my favorite confused extras looking straight into the camera are in place.
What makes this funnier is that there isn't much to review. The characters are being unfolded not through their hardships but their everyday routine. And the story is getting messier each episode, not even in terms of lore inconsistencies which are plenty, but through immersion-breaking reactions. Galadriel is now officially an utterly different character I have no sympathy for, but they are writing the show as I should have. She's just starting to get annoying with her persistence, which she validates. That said, most plot twists are based on the characters constantly changing their minds. It's as if they're working under the viewer and creating false expectations for the sake of false expectations, well, and based on their stubbornness, I guess. Imagine them getting into real trouble.
I've watched four episodes and still haven't figured out who I'm supposed to empathize with and when something will start happening (probably never). But I get baited every time.
