I LOVED how well they made this anime!!! The story was SUPER interesting and I’ve never felt more connected to any of the honestly more boring characters in the game (maybe except Invoker). Honestly believe this is one of the best things Valve could have done and honestly believe that this is one of my more favorite animes.
Personally I also liked this anime, and the best part is animation is good despite being not Japanese.
