L.O.R.D. Critical World (2019)

This show is not going to win awards for the CGI, cinematography, music, or fight scenes. It's obviously low budget, and as such set your expectations with that in mind. However, I ENJOYED it for what it was. It is no masterpiece, but I loved the main characters. I did skip some stuff with the main baddies, but I kept along with the plot and I didn't find it as dragging as some other c-dramas I have tried to watch.
Lin Chen and Qi Ling, you either will love them or hate them. Qi Ling starts out as your plucky goofy young lead but he does have a character arc, and slowly matures. Some people might find him grating, I thought he was adorable. Yin Chen, beautiful ice queen of my HEART. Love him, Qi Ling does melt that frosty interior slowly. Their bond drives the show. I liked the ladies Shen Lin, Lian Quan, and You Hua. The plot was decent. Not mind blowing, but I enjoyed it
Give it a try, maybe you are like me, and can see a gem amongst all that bad stone!

Story is a bit confusing and all over the place. Too much information given at once but not explained properly so you just ends up getting more confuse lol but the pacing is okay. The plot itself is quite new and interesting and it can get better if it is executed nicely.
Chemistry is great between the two male leads. Mostly watch it for Yin Chen (Joe) and i can't really stand Qi Ling until the end. Not sure if it is the actor or character problem or both but overall still bearable. Other characters like You Hua, Lian Chen or Shen Yin is a bit lacking. Cringed at their scenes most of the time.
CG is just average but some scenes are done nicely with the effect. One thing i really dislike is the setting (everywhere just look the same lolol) This island and that island is identical then the place where they fight is always almost the same smh i get that there are not many places where they can film but the set they build is so fake that you can't help but laugh. Wherelse the props and costumes are okay.
Didn't really have romance as well but it is fine with me, the best romance you can get may be from the two male leads themselves haha.
Truthfully, 90% getting me through this is watching YC hotness especially when he is fighting or using his power (super eye candy) Conclusion, don't expect a great story as it has many plot holes but some twist and turn makes it better so not bad i guess!
