It also feels like a seamless extension of the original series, exploring what it means to be a creative person in a commodified world and what community looks like for those accustomed to living inside their own lonely minds.
While the episode with McElhenny, Waters and Konkle was funny, the episode that starred Grant was funny and heartwarming.
With a mere four, however, it feels more like a series of excursions into the ripples of the video game world that couldn't be fit into a standard season — delicious leftovers, but leftovers nonetheless.
It’s an enjoyable and ambitious supplement to one of today’s best streaming comedies – but at only four episodes, Side Quest feels too slight, and unable to reach the high bar set by previous Mythic Quest one-offs.
The distance it puts between itself and its parent proves as much a curse as a blessing. Siloed off into a separate realm, these odds and ends struggle to find much of a way forward on their own.
“Side Quest” is an easy watch, but a forgettable one.

So painful. I couldn’t finish all 4 episodes. It was a struggle to finish season 4 of Mythic Quest, and I’m unsure why this project got the green light at all. Every single character was frustrating and reminded me why I’ve become so apathetic towards gaming and comic books over the years. Actually. It wasn’t painful, it was just depressing.
