Quick History:
The writer sold the rights of the story to CD Projekt Red for less than $100,000 USD.
After the game become popular, he asked for more. He didn't like the games. Anyway, he asked for $16m USD because he claims he sold the rights for 1 game, didn't know they made 3 games and the 3rd game is so damn popular. Finally, in 2018/2019, the Game Developer settled out of court for an unknown amount.
Now everyone is happy and Netflix adapted the series. Awesome
Henry Cavil:Henry Cavil is a huge fan of the game. He said he finished the game multiple times. After hearing Netflix is making the series, he read all the books (through Audiobook). Then he loved the book and ask his agent to literally call Netflix every day. Naturally, he is the first choice because he already understands all the witcher lore.
Controversies:
Coming soon
Difference between Book/Game/Series:
1. Triss is red hair in the game. But the books says chestnut colour and later on the series it says she is ginger.
2. Fringilla is supposed to look like yennifer. When Gerald sleeps with her, he often confuses her with Yennifer. And her whole heritage is white because of the family is one of the kings in the land. No idea how they are going to explain that.

Quick Review:

Pros:
1. Fight sequence is damn cool. 1 take, close combat.
2. Very good in explaing what the witcher is without treating the audience like an idiot.
3. Treat witcher not like some IMBA OP character. The series and game treat him like an athletic scientist. I hope he does more detective works.
4. Humans are the real moster.
5. Soundtrack is damn good wei. "Toss your coin to the witcher~"
6. No SJW like recent movies and series like Batwoman.
Cons:
1. Yennifer backstory is too draggy.
2. Timeline can be very confusing if you dont pay attention to the story/dialouge.
3. Too many characters and places. No way you can catch that with 1 viewing. I suspect after season 2, you might need to rewatch the show.
4. Really need a map to know whats going on.

The writer confirms Henry Cavil is THE Witcher!
