Who, Douglas?

Yeah Triss could be okay she hasn’t done enough to judge yet.
It might be because Fringella has often been in scenes with Tsinna and Yennefer who just outshine her which is not supposed to be evident. I’m personally glad they had Ciri in this season as it was just building things up for season 2, her scenes with her grandmother were very much needed for a backstory at the beginning of the show rather than being introduced in season 2 imo. It made me understand the war and the dynamics

I think you could have done the Centra/Cintra (sp?) stuff without the present day aspects as I think that storyline was at it's best when we saw the queen and co interact with Geralt in the past. I'd rather they set up the importance of that episode and the idea of destiny and saved Ciri for next season when they could have paced her story better and given her the time she needed.

I love that you can tell how much fun Cavill is having with this, especially combat scenes . Like he's living out his best cosplay fantasy.

I can see the timelines being confusing for people that don't know the games (or books, but let's face it more people know the story from the games!). It's clear that they're different times if you do, because Yennifer is much older than Geralt and they've known each other for decades by the time Geralt meets Dandelion (Jaskier) and I believe he's known Jaskier for many years before Ciri is around.

I was able to work out the timelines from name drops of the city that fell and other references and I'd never played the games. Absolutely loved the series, one of the best Netflix Originals yet.

I think games have been done dirty over the years, they've mainly been adapted into films, where you have to condense so much of what makes it good into a two hour period, TV is a much better medium for games IMO

I watched ep 1 the other day and i was so confused
I didn’t know anyone from the game besides geralt and ciri (i’m assuming ciri was the gal who escaped from the castle) Who was the butch who the wizard got geralt to kill? |

Witcher 2 is a great game too. The difficulty scale is a bit off (it's VERY hard for the first few hours and gets increasingly easy as you skill up) but the storyline is great; much smaller scale than 3 (it's not open world) but that's not necessarily a bad thing IMO, tonnes of character and "big set pieces". Witcher 1 is pretty dated to the point of not being all that playable at this point but meh... you get more than enough background from the TV show to jump in at 2 (or even 3, though I do recommend 2 anyway). |

I agree with you for the most part on the other characters, Ciri's performance did grow on me (even if the writers didn't do the best job with her character) and Dandelion, Geralt, and Yennefer steal the season for me (like I think they're intended to tbf) I still have Toss A Coin To Your Witcher ringing in my head. Oh and the actress who plays Yennefer is from Wolverhampton so on a personal level it's good to see someone from the Midlands doing well for themselves.
