Friends linked me to a high seas version because they wanted me to watch the Warhammer one. I decided I'd watch the whole lot since I was bored, then noticed the Amazon logo with trepidation.

First ep was a BG3-esque take on a short DnD scenario. A party rescues a mysterious magical prisoner and goes to see a dragon with him. There's not a white male in sight and it's like something that would be cooked up by a DEI-slop AI - mohawk dyke half-orc(?) paladin, jamaican dwarf, etc...

Second ep was based on the game Sifu, just kind of meh in all respects. Shading style was like a Telltale game which was extra off-putting.

The first white men show up in ep 3. It's an arrogant muscular beefcake monarch (and suffering manservant), who gets washed up on a strange island with nothing but conquest in his empty brain, but keeps death-resetting for some reason. I was shocked to hear Arnie's voice and assumed that I really was being exposed to AI deep-fakery - but no, I looked it up and it was supposedly really voiced by him. The makers said they wrote it specifically for him and the concept for the short was 'what if Conan was all talk??' Cool, so a humiliation ritual and a dismantling of cultural idols, then.

After watching Arnie's char lose gorily and clownishly in both a battle of skills, then wits, to the real king of the island - who looked a bit like what a narcissistic Jew might see when he looks in the mirror - I turned off the show and decided not to watch any more. I might not even watch the WH40K one for fear of losing respect for my friend, although apparently the guy who made the 'Astartes' fan vid worked on it. That one was very good.
