That was very dumb of Theo. I'm going to guess that every episode will have a major boss or monster from the series as the antagonist.

So we had some goblins, and they did what goblins be doing.
A tough ass Griffin and a moment of madness that leads to a Shakespearean tragedy.
Liking how the seven sin title names are being used in the series, envy really was a theme in the tragedy.

Bruh was this goblin sexual harassment really necessary? I know this shit is starting to be a trend but I was never expecting this in a DD adaptation...

And honestly, I do like graphic content, but if it's too cracked and without any context, the show loses a lot quality, specially, specially if it's of sexual nature.

A plus is that the original Dragon's Dogma game is a violent game yes, but it's nowhere this graphic.

Shock value for the sake of it. Unnecessary. For some reason, they decided to make everything very explicit and violent.

It doesn't make any sense with what she had said to the Arisen before.

As I've said, graphic content can be just good if it's reasonable. (specially on the gory part I mean)
But in the case of DD it just doesn't match well at all. Well, it's not like everything else is being faithful to the game right.

Wow that was pretty sad, she just wanted him to protect her and he finally did but his envy got the best of him and he killed her damn. Chapter of Envy was pretty decent.

Oh boy, remembering the Goblin Slayer controversy, that part here is sure to rustle some jimmies. I myself don't complain though, Elizabeth had some damn fine CG tits.
What offends me instead is Theo coming to a conclusion that now that he have proven himself to be a capable man worthy of his wife is a good time to release all the built-up frustration from her flirting with another men and fucking murder her. Now that was shock value for the sake of it.

Wow, Elizabeth, got goblinated hard. Her confession at the end was the fakest I've ever seen. Nobody goes from "I talk mad shit about my wuss of a husband and flash my tits at the biggest hunk in vicinity" to "I always loved you".
Another thing that irks me is what I remember from Game of Thrones. A woman who was just goblinated would not throw herself at the nearest cock. That's not how trauma works.
What I liked about this episode was the use of game mechanics and a quote which gave me a Vietnam flashback:
"Take out it's wings first! If we ground it we take away its advantage!"
Pawns would never shut up...

Am I the only one who felt like everyone was way too mean to Theo? After his girl flirted with Ethan he just looked at him in disgust when I was expecting him to like go to him and say it's okay I'm not going to bang your gf or something like that...

That was rather distasteful, was the shot her boobs necessary. She also seems rather calm and collected for someone who was almost r***. This is worse what Goblin Slayer pulled in its first episode, honestly.

Then that battle with the griffin was just kind of dumb. Just have Hannah shoot it's wings with her magic arrows instead of overcomplicating things.
And when since does it take her three hours to fire, they never properly established the charging time.

And then ending, I can see what they were going for, but it just didn't fire off because of how terrible the wife was being. If she had just been traumatized by her experience and clung to Ethan instead of being...crap, and then her clinging caused the husband to get jealous, then maybe that ending would've hit better.

I'm gonna have to drop this one. I like Hannah and Ethan, but this episode was just SO BAD

Are all the episodes going to end like this? This formula has gone old now show me something new. And what's with Hannah being the only pawn? In the game you can have 3 in a party.

Decent ep, shame the goblins weren't as detailed as the bigger critters though. Also didn't like how Beth's pair looked fake, what's the point of having CG technology if it's to use it this way.

You're supposed to always tell the truth when you're dying, but yeah was a bit left field.

Yeah, when she got stabbed it felt well-deserved.

Ughhh... I hope this show gets better. First 2 eps were somewhat ok for me, but I didn't really like this one.

Elizabeth: "I was always yours". Damn lies after trying to do the deed with Ethan just a few minutes ago and also stated that she only married wimpy Theo because of his wealth. Sure didn't expect Theo to go mad after slaying some goblins.

The slutty woman in this episode looked a bit like Madeleine, but doesn't really have anything in common otherwise. How do you sleep around with a bunch of guys and make no secret of it, and not expect your husband to build up resentment, especially when you try and seduce other men right in front of him?
