Even though I didn’t exactly have high expectations, I still have to add the TOG side story, Urek Mazino, to my list of disappointments of the year. Although TOG fans deny it, especially on Reddit, TOG has been declining for a while now with overconvoluted lore, bad pacing, and bullshit power scaling.
When SIU announced a hiatus to get shit straight and produce the side story, I thought he would cut the fat and tell a straightforward power fantasy. Instead, he added even more overconvoluted lore with the same awful pacing. So yeah, despite the low expectations, it’s still disappointing.
