Rooster Teeth is not a new studio. It's been around for about 11 years now. Something like 90% of the staff has been hired in the last 4 years or so. RWBY is really the first full-blown stand-alone series they've done. So they are indeed relatively new to this. They are just now starting to get good, and they ARE good.

Even so, RWBY kicks the crap out of a lot of professional shows in many aspects, and it will just get better in all the other areas.

In terms of enjoyment, it is possibly the best show I've watched. The world is there, the story is there, the technical details will come. Okay, no.

No to all of that.

RWBY is not "the first full-blown stand-alone series they've done." and they are not "relatively new to this" Red Vs Blue has been going on for 11 years now. Yes, they use the halo games for it, but apart from mentioning master chief in the first episode, litterally nothing about it has any connection with the halo series. It is it's own stand alone project, along with their other projects, such as immersion, 1-800-MAGIC, PANICS, and the RT Shorts.

They are not "just starting" to get good, that would imply that they have never been good up until this point. if that was the case, the company wouldn't have lasted this long if it took 11 years for it to "Start" being good.

RWBY is filled with clipping errors every 10 seconds, if that long, Miles and Kerry are doing a very, very, poor job of making anyone give a damn about the characters with their less than sub par writing of the show, and character cliche's out the ass.

i.e: Everyone figuring out that Blake was a faunus just from watching her trailer, and then expecting us to be surprised when she takes off the bow.

Jeff Williams does more story telling for RWBY with a 5 minute song, than Miles and Kerry did with a whole voume

The story is not there, we litterally have no idea why anything is being done for any reason at all by anyone.
