Yeh I am not feeling it. It seems to lack the mood of The Witchee

Looks pretty badass. Going to be a fun binge. Been meaning to go back and play Witcher 3 and actually get somewhere in it lol. Still working on beating Persona 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 before school starts back up. Might have to check out the books as well.

I'll give it a go, but imagine Geralt will come off like an almighty dickhead, on the screen. And I still don't think Henry Cavill can act to save his life.

Correct me if I am wrong here. Seeing I've never played the games or read the books so my familiarity with the concept is not great.
But isn't he a monster hunter? Where are the monsters?

He has two swords. One is silver and One is steel. They're both for killing monsters. Honestly I'm guessing they're saving it for the actual show.

The teaser trailer earlier in the thread has a giant spider emerging at the end in the same scene as his messed up eyes.

Caught the first episode, really liked what I saw. I've never read the books or played the game so I was totally blind to spoilers or developments that were in them. I think my attention did drift a bit in the middle so I was confused by the ending of the pilot, but I'll give it another rewatch. Pretty bloody, and there are definite "video game" moments to be had in it.
Will definitely watch another tomorrow. Might just avoid finishing the barely average His Dark Materials and just move on to this during the holidays.

Just watched the first episode, I only played the Witcher 3 so I’m not the biggest fan out there and I haven’t read the books but I like the series so far.
My only complaint is Cavill’s voice he tries too hard to sound like the game.

I’m really appreciating the Mandalorians weekly release schedule over the Netflix drop and binge.
Easier to have discussions without fear of spoilers

I'm four episodes in and I'm loving it!
Although I haven't read the books, just played the games, I feel this series does it justice.
I think people need to remember, in any series.. the first season is just world building. And if you have a rich, drawn-out, fantasy landscape... it's gonna take a bit more world-building than a real world show. So I expect some uninitiated people to get super lost in the fantasy babble and the fact you're never sure if they words they're saying are dialect, a creature, a nation, or a location. I know, I had the same exactly problem when playing the games.. but after a while, got to know what they were talking about and it all flowed nicely.

I just finished episode two {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Very light focus on the main character and the new bard sidekick in favour of background on children of the elves, particularly a hunchback who aspires to ascend in some kind of magic academy. Interestingly, she and her boyfriend both simultaneously betray one another to command favour with their masters.
I really want an MP3 of "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher"
...Update: I found one!

I just finished the whole thing. So far so good, just that the finale left me wanting for more.
