Agreed

[@Group-935]

Yup, agreed. This seems to be the one thing that the West can never get right. For some reason... But look at a place like Japan. If you watch an anime, or read a manga, then switch to check out the other one. They are almost always spot on with each other. Anime more often than not, sticks to the source material to a T. I don't get why over here in the US, they just can't seem to stick to the source material... They always take SO many liberties. I don't know why? I just don't get it. Follow the comic, or book exact, and you would almost always have a super successful movie or show. Just like what happens in the anime industry.

[@louis-antoinest-onge1752]

[@neoxsendra2783]

@@Group-935 By all means: NO! Anime most of the time changes things like subplots or charakters, so they can put more of the story in their series. And Light Novel and Manga fans fume over it as much. BUT talented people who LOVE the source material do it. So most of the time they're great series with great characters and they just fuck up the chance of a second season because some (in the time when they make the series) unknown plottwists and storyline wont work anymore because of those changes.

[@drake9634]

@@neoxsendra2783 yeah but most of the time and I mean 80% of it they cut subplots that are more or less irrelevant/filler to give way so the story can go on, and they follow the fakin story. Total opposite from the hollywoodietes who feel they need to tell their OWN story through other people's stories, and we see it time and time again, Rings of power, the Witcher (and that other trash spin off), cowboy bebop, wheels of time, star wars (I know that there isn't a "defined" story past return of the Jedi, but since the control went to Kathleen "self-insert" Kennedy, the main movies went to shit, with a few turd covered nuggets of gold here and there (rogue one, mandalorian, andor)), and so on and so on, and this grinds my gears, because i loathe the arrogance of a hollywood urbanite writer with one or two mediocre tv credits who think they can top off the story of accomplished writers and creators while they obnoxiously sip on their Starbucks Venti and write the same script over and over again (their stories always has to have one of these elements, minority gud yt men bad, LGBT, and women gud men bad, or all three combined in a snoozesoup), and sorry for this rambling that wasn't at all connected with your comment apart from the first line, the brain just thought and my fingers followed, have a good day 👍

[@AlaskaRS]

I never understood the hate for her. So she's half indian? I don't care! Legitimately, she fits the visual I had conjured for Yennefer while reading the books. People kept going on acting like her skin was black or something. There were more glaring issues in season 1.

I would dismantle Netflix in their meetings. You chose to produce this show because of the rich story. You had all the material you needed to produce something amazing. You were fortunate enough to have an actor that actually knew who Geralt was and how to play him. You hired writers that don’t respect the material and who believe they know better then the book. Unfortunately that’s not how this works. It’s Netflix’s decision to make the show. It was their choice to hire the people they hired that turned this into a circus show. No one owes you anything, especially not the customers. Their whole job is to produce something entertaining enough for us the consumer to want to pay for the subscriptions. Don’t ever blame the people that you’re trying to sell to. it never ends well. That’s actually very weak and also shows the lack of leadership in that company. You had the material and you had the actor for something potentially amazing. It’s on them and only them. They deserve the backlash. Unfortunately they won’t learn.

[@mk_wizard]

I wish I could tell Henry Cavill to his face how sorry I am that he was dragged back and forth through the mud only to be used AGAIN. Actors like him deserve better.

The minute they disregarded the source material they lost their audience. It’s marketing one-on-one knowing your audience!!! I can’t blame Henry for leaving and Netflix can’t blaming me for not watching after this season. If they really want to get better they should learn from the Last of Us, they respected the source material, as a result we loved it!!!

To be fair, Anya Chalotra defended HC from the start. The dirt came mostly from the writers and production team.

This was literally a free paycheck for the people involved. You have a successful book and game to work with. All they had to do is copy and paste what's in the books on Netflix. But they still manage to fuck it up.

[@Mcnooblet]

I agree. There's many people that either read, watch, or play video games. Hardly ever all 3, but maybe 2. Many played The Witcher 3 video game, and many didn't play any of the games before that, which the series hasn't even caught up to. So I agree 100%, they should had done a copy and paste and it would had still been new to most The Witcher 3 fans, and people not so familiar with The Witcher. I believe a very small minority have read all the books, played all the games, and watched the whole series to where a copy/paste would had felt detrimental to that small minority.

Both have advantages and disadvantages to tell a story, because they are DIFFERENT IN ITSELF. There are A LOT of differences already by adapting the story, you DONT need to change the story itself for it to not be the same experience. Why do you have to explain to people over and over again that grass is green? If you want a new story, write a new story. Dont call it „The Witcher“.

The most glaring teleportation is when they have to ride for days to get somewhere but they can also just go to a bar and be there.

Okay lets stop being disingenuous here, woke identity politics is not at the forefront and not the reason the show is failing. Shows like house of the dragon had more wokeism than the Witcher but were leagues better. You know why? They had a coherent, interesting story that was also true to their source material. The witcher show's narrative (even from someone who didnt ready the books by season 2) was mediocre at best with the most convoluted web of too many character sub plots. Sure the race changes didnt help but what pissed me off is that the characters didnt even act like themselves based off their past experiences WITHIN THEIR OWN DAMN SHOW, let alone act like how they are supposed to based on the source material.

Finally, companies are catching on that shoving agendas down viewers throats doesn't invoke real and effective change. I do not know the right answer, but this one definitely wasn't it

[@skyejacques]

I think the key word you mentioned is agendas. There's a lot of agendas at Netflix, such as normalising pedophilia with Cuties and AI takeover and stuff like Contagion. The impact the media has on the subconscious is dramatic... Don't fall for it ❤ be your own sovereign aoul

[@JasmyneContours]

I watched the Witcher for representation of the Polish. As a Black Woman, I wanted to explore. What I got was what Id find in downtown DC, it took away from the show, and that was bad because the shows attempt at adaptation was bad, so we found ourselves watching to support Henry. Now that he's gone, why get invested? In order to send the writers a message, STOP HATE WATCHING The WITCHER. 🛑 Let it DIE.

How henry cavill plays geralt is absolutely amazing really reminds me of the geralt in witcher 3 game, even the grunts and other noises that the game geralt does has been played amazingly by henry and that is just irreplaceable to me.

[@cactusmann5542]

When you blame the fans for something you did....it is your own fault.

[@EndymionTv]

Yup

[@ChceTok3ny]

Ciri wasn't in Aretuza, she was in bathhouse in Gors Velen. She used Yennefer's talisman with locating spell on it to find Geralt and she rode towards him. (In books she left a letter, so Yen immidiately went after her) Wild Hunt appeared just like in books ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Recast is also easy to explain. Obviously Vilgefortz will give Geralt a tax-free face surgery with his staff after the party (S3E6-7 probably) and then in S4 they will give him lore-friendly headband

[@Jennifer-ve7gu]

Yeah I think they’ll recast when Geralt is so beat up and needs to recover with the dryads. That is….if they are even using the books as source material 😅

[@dezmundtv962]

Henry may or may not be forced to beg fans.. But the reality is he genuinely cares about his co-stars namely the ones playing Yennefer, Siri and Yaskir.. he has always had a soft spot for them if you watched the interviews they did together. So clearly he wants them to succeed while he's gone because this show was their big break.. But either way the fate of this show has been written by the fans and there is nothing he can do to stop it frankly.

[@kaermelek9513]

Actually there is an event in the books that could explain changing Geralt's look, it wouldn't be perfect explanaition but somehow acceptable. However, I am concerned that the showrunners will try something different related to monolits or sth like that, which would be teribble

[@ezequielmorales4221]

It's a shame this series never even got a 3rd season

[@EndymionTv]

[@sharkmanro]

You mean 1st season?

[@silverbane8065]

Henry was probably 'a nightmare to deal with on set'.... for the writers. Because he KNOWS his $hit about the source material. I know very little about the witcherverse, but as soon as they said that two actors would be playing 'the same character' the first thought that came to my head was 'they are going to pull a parallel universe thing' Henry will get killed, and Liam will be dragged out of another version of the witcherverse by someone probably to help a grieving Ciri (assuming she's allowed to be so normal, that is) It probably won't be one of the women that does it, though. Because *they* would of course, have got a perfect copy of Henry's version of Geralt. So its going to be some dude casting a spell, grabbing a Geralt, but because he's got XY chromosome's, he stuffs up slightly, and they get 'mostly Geralt' which will explain why he's a 'new version'. He made slightly different decisions, walked slightly different paths to get to mostly the same place.

I dont blame Henry for leaving. This season is so bad, so bad! I have read the books and played all the games and I dont even know WTF is going on. On top of all that....They woked the piss out of this show, ignored the story for their slanted hollywood agenda.

[@madscientist2621]

That cast interview sounds like a hostage scene where the bad guy is holding a gun to their heads and making them tell the guy on the other end of the phone line "we are great. Nothing to see here"

[@REDinitial]

Henry Cavill's portrayal of Geralt was the only saving grace of the show, apart from the occasional songs by the band Percival they used sporadically in the soundtrack. Forget Season 3, I couldn't get through Season 2 due to the confused writing and nonsensical plotting, editing and mise-en-scene. This was before his departure was announced and yet I dropped it at episode 4 and never picked it up again. For context, I am an avid reader/film/tv show watcher and a fantasy and sci fi aficionado plus Eastern European - this should have been right up my alley. The fact that it wasn't shows how weak of a show it ultimately was.

[@cowboyboots9901]

The problem is the showrunner and writers, they think they're geniuses. Every twist was telegraphed worse than Halibran being Sauron. As soon as Jaskier's girlfriend said he's been with men, we knew immediately a gay scene coming. As soon as the White Flame offered the fallen general redemption after proof of loyalty we knew the elf general was going to die.

[@karite2]

They can blame themselves, I dropped the show when I heard they were going off script and that Cavill, being a Witcher fan, didn't approve.

[@samym1694]

That is why writers must question their creators if they knew & red the original content before making an adaptation & not altering the story for their own self-insert fantasies That's why in Japan, Manga became a hit because of Anime they adapt & not altering their creators work.

[@heatnationwpb]

Your "drunk gremlin" theory is better than anything Netflix will come up with

[@Cadence__1700]

The problem was they didn't take effort or time to actually use character development and make sure that every character is doing something meaningful in the show. They basically starred Henry and that's it, while killing characters off unnecessarily that don't actually die in the franchise, cause they want to be lazy, like I thought this show would be legit till right after season 1, I was like, "Wtf? These scenes aren't adding up clearly! And there's no creativity, they're just using flashback stories as a reply for the scenes to look intriguing!" So this made me loose interest in the show. They're only using the sultry actor as a way to sell off the show so people can still watch it. It's very sheepish and humiliating for themselves, not us

[@SonicSkychaser]

All of this could've been avoided if the writers of The Witcher Netflix series just did what Henry Cavill wanted and use the source material from the books and games. But they didn't want to and this what they get. To quote The Joker: "You get what you fucking deserved!"

[@kamote4067]

They can always make berserk and cast henry on it. One thing that henry does best against other stars is his fight scenes. Those fight scenes are master piece. Im not an expert in swordfighting but his footworks looks legit. I have never scene any stars whethet japanese, chinese, hollywoood, thai or indonesian give so much beauty in their footwork when doing action scene. His emphasis on footworks in his fightscenes on S3 was a masterpiece. Not even swordfights in GOT can surpass that.

[@christophergroenewald5847]

I haven't watched season 3 and probably never will, but from how you describe it, the scene where ciri escaped from Arituza and is chased by the Hunt does sound like it was adapted from the books as there was a scene similar to that in the books, but knowing Netflix, they probably ruined the scene.

They did. They changed how she escaped from them... Of course they did.

Isn’t that when she teleported herself into the desert? That’s when she got separated from Geralt and became an outlaw.

Why do most modern companies feel the need to blame the customer if a product is not selling well?
