During the interview, /Film writer Valerie Ettenhofer described “Mythic Quest” as showing a “creative partnership as a form of love,” and was curious if that angle was something consciously explored by actor Charlotte Nicdao. “A hundred percent, that’s exactly how I see it,” Nicadao said. “It is a will they/won’t they, but not romantic.” As “Mythic Quest” deals so intimately with the formulation of a gaming experience, the will they/won’t they question often reserved for romantic comedies is explored in terms of artistic expression and workplace camaraderie:
“It’s about will they/won’t they create something great? Will they/won’t they find a healthy way to work together? Will they/won’t they remain friends?”
As a little tease for season 3, Nicadao also said, “And I feel the stakes of that, especially in this season.” The team of the in-world “Mythic Quest” game took a huge risk last season by formulating a new company, which has opened them all up to a new world of will they/won’t they questions yet to be answered. “I don’t think that the problem is that they’re not capable, in terms of the skills that they have, of building a legacy as important as ‘Mythic Quest,’ said Nicadao. “It’s whether they’re capable, emotionally, of doing it together.”
