Actually seems like exactly the kind of show I would love, but when it got to the part where they were showing the video it made it seem like they were going to show the whole thing so I turned it off. I can’t really handle that kind of shit.
I'm trying real hard to be the shepherd.

Just finished the season. Good but not great. I’ll honestly probably rewatch it to see how it holds up without the timeline confusion distracting me.

I will never watch this. I just know.

I heard that people not familiar with the source material are lost. I'm a complete newb so I've held off watching.

I fall into this category and still enjoyed it. I got lost at own point when I realized
Spoiler: show
there were multiple timelines going on
, but otherwise it was fairly run of the mill fantasy fare. It very much has a “main story with side quests” flow to it.

It would be easier to follow if any of the other characters were memorable.
