I mean, first we get the Maidens. Then the Relics. And now we have freakin' gods thrown in, along with an incoming apocolypse. It no doubt sounded cool on paper when Miles, Kerry and Monty discussed all of this, but in practice, I think its just too much. To be fair, the Maidens were not part of the original plan.

Monty came up with the Maidens after they finished with Volume 2, and Miles and Kerry felt obligated to add it to the show because Monty had been so excited about the idea. Unfortunately, this means that they have to make adjustments to the original plans while trying to keep everything from deviating from the original plan, which has complicated the writing process for them. tbh I think the biggest issue is the rate at which they are added, rather than the amount of them, and that they don't really give the protags much time to say "well this is how fucked we are now.... and now it's this much worse" instead, we keep getting "well shit this is an issue, and I'm not sure last weeks issues are an issue anymore..." rather than letting us see the acceptance, they just happen off-screen half the time, while bigger issues stack up.
