Some consider award-winning animation Arcane the best videogame adaption ever - so why is it ending?
"We've all watched TV shows that didn't really know when to stop," says Christian Linke.Quitting while you're ahead isn't always a strength of the TV industry, and there are plenty of examples of programmes "jumping the shark" and overstaying their welcome.That's especially true when you're the showrunner of Arcane - the award-winning animated story inspired by multiplayer online game League of Legends .
"We want to just tell a very specific story where we have a very tailored ending in mind," he tells BBC Newsbeat. Christian says getting a TV show made in an industry that's "afraid to have a big blunder" is difficult, and a similar series with "high quality animation" at its core didn't exist at the time."It was very clear that just because it doesn't exist, it doesn't mean this huge audience of gamers didn't want to see these characters and these worlds realised in a big way.
