Sure, the cast is larger and allows the addition of more diverse characters. While the production is obviously bigger, it doesn’t exactly seem to have gotten better. However, I can’t simply say the same things about the VGHS’s second season. Not only because the script, the very premise and the concept of a fictional high school that teaches teenagers about games delivered goofy characters and even goofier incidents, but also the production –although very professional- was careful with judging the extent of its reach: The setup was simple, the story was well-rounded and the show told us only as much as we needed to know.

It was funny, it was full of action, I cared about the characters, and most importantly, there was a certain air about the show: It refrained from taking itself too seriously. I really enjoyed the first season of VGHS. The Kickstarter fundraiser for the second season asked for the exact amount of money it took to produce the first one and achieved even more success. Although the first season was funded with some 270 thousand dollars, the cost of production was a little over 630 thousand dollars. Immediately after, the creators of the show announced the production of a second season. The show was launched in 2011 with a Kickstarter fundraiser and was already a hit by the end of its first season. The show revolves around “BrianD”, a talented teenager who gets accepted into the prestigious VGHS in order to be schooled about the ways of gaming on a professional level.
