THE WITCHER COMPARISON | Art vs. Game vs. Show

Hi. This video is for comparison game, art and show.
I hope, you like it.

[@brittneyaxelson4429]

For a lot of the book pictures, they literally just drew out the video game character - same exact outfit and everything.

[@ravenwhiteduck6460]

Props to the game for being faithful, Netflix sucks at any adaptation they make

[@user-ui6mm9ph3y]

What you meant to say was props to the game for keeping all the characters white because that’s how you like it say it with your chest next time

[@duykhanhcloud6866]

@@user-ui6mm9ph3y yeah and is that a bad thing?cuz the game did a right thing all the characters SHOUD be white cuz this is a POLISH tale dumb ass.

[@mertala1085]

@@user-ui6mm9ph3y OR, maybe we just like them to be loyal to the source material

[@claudiobarus32]

@@mertala1085 yea most of the witcher character in the books are white if he read the book except the offieri and zerikannian they're the only black and brown people i know cause the books its about slavs fantasy world

[@LeMiemo-shay]

@@user-ui6mm9ph3y Because all characters were white. Witcher is strictly based on medieval Europe. There was not a single Black person in Europe at this period. Only the Zerrikanians Tea and Vea were actually Brown, but Zerrikania is far far away from the part of the part of world where Geralt lives

[@arthurmorgan9816]

Triss’s surname is “Merrigold” not ranuncul

[@odz626]

The illustrative photos of the book are the same as those of the video games, they are taken from The witcher Gwent

[@riccardoscaletta01]

The game is the closest you can get to the books in my opinion

[@muhammadibnvictor3682]

Maybe the chinese will make a TV show about the USA revolution and for example Jackie Chan will play the role of george Washington, etc

[@tudorcamelia]

At least the game had it right. I played the game and watched the series and Netflix disrespected everything realated to the witcher universe. Ohh and they did Triss soo bad😢

[@WhatBigClawsYouHave]

Young Ciri always looked to me like a dwarf 😂

[@Mufireael]

It just pisses me off how some characters look totally different in the netflix show compared to the books or the games, it's just disrespectful...

[@dennislogan6781]

Not trying to sound racist, but why did so many characters that were obviously white have to be played by black actors? I think they are good actors and could have played original characters who were black, so why the change? If a white man was cast as Black Panther then many people would have been angry. I don't understand why a movie or tv show changes race and/or sex to a non white male. Make original characters if you want more non white male characters writers.

[@cristiancantu7016]

That’s a pretty bad comparison because all of the people in wakanda are black not just tchalla, and the characters in the Witcher don’t necessarily have a set race, I don’t see a problem especially since the color of their skin doesn’t change the fact that the actors did a pretty damn good job of portraying them. Also an actor can try out for any role they like, as they probably turned out to be a better fit that most of the other people who tried out for that same role or else they wouldn’t have been cast. The color of their skin doesn’t have the same impact as it does like if you were to make black panther white. Try again

[@dennislogan6781]

@@cristiancantu7016 Yet The Witcher is set in a fantasy medieval Poland and there wasn't many people of color in medieval Poland was there?

[@hoodlum4511]

Dude, your late in the party but I'll give you a fun fact. A lot if white characters who were replaced by black actors are mostly redheads. Mary Jane, Kid Flash, and Hawk Girl to name a few but there is actually an explanation to this one of them is that western media is so obsessed with race and diversity that they would change an already existing character who is originally white to black so they could take that character's already existing fanbase. And another reason for raceswapping and specifically raceswapping redheads with black people. Is because black people thinks that the fiery personality that redheads has came from black people and that why they race swap to black. Here a good explanation if you want to learn more. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/sInbgWitq6mpaJo

[@hoodlum4511]

@@cristiancantu7016 so is lord of the rings but everyone definitely knows the cast and the people is supposed to be white or european cause it is set in a european fictional world with european myths and legends. Heck, Tolkein even said the characters are white as well but here we are with Power Ring which is shite And wrong in your other topic. Actors are being portrayed a certain character so they got to act and LOOK like the character they are portraying. Because if race doesn't matter then why do a lot of mofos cry about whitewashing then?

[@youngfella3401]

@@dennislogan6781 you are totally right

[@Trollflen]

Fringilla Vigo is a white character why the fuck Netflix but something different I mean no racism but If it's white don't change it is like you put The Witcher prota black xd why not?

Forced Inclusion.

[@Spannermek]

Are you planning on revisiting and making an update to this as there are a lot of your missing characters that are now in the show? Philippa, Vesemir, Emhyr, Eskel, Lambert have all appeared in series 2 or 3. Perhaps add Sigismund Dijkstra maybe?

[@sandyxpcn]

Triss cast is just bad.

[@scream4830]

All bad only Geralt ciri cool

[@terrified057t4]

It's funny, I was always wondering "oh did Jaskier replace Dandelion?" 'Cause I saw the books and games mention Dandelion, never Jaskier, then they finally mention Dandelion in like Season 3 I think. Took 3 fucking seasons for Dandelion to be mentioned as Jaskier.

[@LeMiemo-shay]

Jaskier is orginal Polish name. And It's actually spelled "Yaskier" ( with hard a k and R)
