OK, Episode 2 is out for FIRST, which means Episode 1 is available for everyone else: https://roosterteeth.com/watch/rwby-volume-7-1
My only comment as for now is that it definitely seems like GM railroading in retrospect as well. I have this big session with all this exposition all set up and you're going where? Okay. Let me look at my notes... *grumbles about players* ... okay, I guess technically Maria would know someone in Atlas but... is that a 20? Okay... I have no idea what to do so let's throw out a random encounter... (Oh, I know!) Now everyone make a Reflex Save, DC 35. What? It's Atlas overtechnology, 35. Aw, you all failed >:) >:) >:)
