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.

The way the witcher game was written

Was that geralt lost his memory so that game had free rein on the overall plot

It was not only till W3 they add back the major plot points from the book

can you arrange the time line of the events in tv series?
because if im not mistaken, it should've started with yennefer brought to aretuza but they have to show geralt first to catch viewers, right

The only thing I can think of is a Ciri side quest (or expansion) in Cyberpunk 2077

or better yet Ciri's travel throughout all the worlds when she was running away from the wild hunt, would be cool since the brief glimpse that we got in 3 seems pretty interesting

Really? feels like the witcher production quality sucked.
I was in awe of 1st episode of GOT,
while the witcher i almost give up after episode 1.
The different timeline and time gap really confusing. Had to check if i skipped an episode before continuing.

Henry Cavill is a PC gamer.

https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/artic...-interview-2019

Henry Cavill: Gaming on my own is much more fun than going out

Henry Cavill would rather be at home right now, without the fame, without the attention, sitting at his gaming PC in shorts and a T-shirt, playing Total War: Warhammer II.

Yes, Henry Cavill. Superman.

And yes, Warhammer. The game with little plastic goblins.

And he’s played it through six times already, accounting for hundreds of hours of gameplay (“With six different races! And I love it each time!”).

Cavill is talking to me a few hours ahead of the premiere of Netflix’s adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher. He’s elaborating on how his love of escapist gaming – something he’s possessed almost since he was old enough to sit at a computer – has only become more and more enhanced as his anonymity has disappeared.

Look im already fine with their choices with casting fringgila as a black person.. but couldnt they cast a better looking black person?

Look at her face, this nigga looks like somebody stepped on her face. This nigga has the flattest face i have ever seen.

And dont let me start with triss... the cast for renfri is a better choice than whatever that shegoblin is...

PS: I realized there is a lot of Indian cast in the series. Pretty immersion breaking for me.

No matter how GOT get trashed, atleast they got the cast right.

I'm glad that the series uses British accent instead of American. Feels somewhat turned off if movies/series depicting ancient and medieval fantasy period uses American accent.

Movies regarding modern times that does not happen in America also usually uses British accent, for example Enemy At The Gates. Not just because the actors are English but I guess that's the way it is.

Futuristic movies mainly uses American accent and only characters for different species usually uses different accent.

For example John Boyega speaks American instead of his native British accent since Finn/Stormtrooper in British accent sounded out of place.

There were movies/tv series that uses American though it shows ancient rime period and they turn me off everytime. Like Xena Warrior Princess etc.

the running idea about the witcher is that witchers speak in american accents and everyone else in british accents. There was a question asked about that before. Guess to differentiate between witchers and common folk.

This show where Henry said fuck dunno how many time lol.

Overall show ok. I didn't play the game, the time line a bit confusing at first but I had train by Melancholy Of Suzumiya Haruhi so this consider child's play after get the gist of it.

The only thing they need to work as is the CGI on Magick then good to go
