The CWProject Genesis sounds cool but other than being told that it involves crops in some way, we literally know nothing about it. Theres such a thing as teasing viewers, but were now two thirds of the way through the season and have barely any clue what the main villain is up to. HIVE is a worldwide organization so why are they so focused on Star City? Surely they cant also be focused on destroying Star City like so many before them? The trope of destroying the city has become very tired at this point, so if theyre rehashing that same conflict, all the while presenting a less developed version of it, its not going to end well. Malcolm, Slade, and Ras all did this before and each of their plans were at least more thought out and developed than Darhks is so far. Neal McDonough is doing everything he can to make his character interesting but hes just given nowhere near enough material or screen time to make Darhk and his machinations compelling. Arrow needs to up its endgame quickly or there will be no stakes by the time the finale rolls around.
