Guess TV/movie adaptation just cannot follow 100% source material

Like the Witcher basically has 3 different adaptation already, the original novel, the game, then the Netflix series, all 3 are very very different from each others

I have some problem following the netflix series after playing the game, read the book then the show laugh.gif

guess I'll hold on reading the WoT novels then

You can read the first book now but avoid the rest to keep your suspense when watching the series.

finally got time to finish the whole S1

not bad IMO, very high budget production, entertaining, although they can improve on the paces which are a bit inconsistent

They've filmed this with non-book reader in mind, so no complaints from me on what true to the books and what's not, unlike I've played the game, read the book of The Witcher, and have lots of complaints over the altered plots of the Netflix series tongue.gif

Anyway, not many decent high fantasy series are out there at the moment, but this is one of the better one, can't wait for the S2, as well as the LOTR series thumbup.gif
