This show is fan fiction. Since theyโre so limited on what they can use to create the show they have taken theyโre own approach on the Second Age and written seemingly theyโre own story. As for the characters I like most such as Elrond, Prince Durin, etc, and then thereโs Galadriel who is insufferable in her quest for revenge and insisting no one โknows her painโ even though the War of Wrath decimated entire cities and as the show mentioned almost left Middle Earth in ruins. Lastly would be the costume design, it feels subpar considering this show had a massive budget and itโs just unimpressive. Aside from those points the world setting, the cgi, and the scenery has not a disappointing and definitely helps bring forth the magic of world Tolkien created.
