Yea, but that's just one of the tropes we have to suffer through if we want to watch tv and movies.

I agree that one of the benefits GoT has over Witcher is that Witcher saddles us with a protagonist who has invincible plot armor. GoT meandered it's way to the problematic plot armor in the later half, but we started with 4 strong seasons where everyone seemed killable at the time.


to be fair, witchers are more powerful/resilient than regular humans, but I will agree that there were a few questionable moments even if you consider that lol

They got me just with the first sword fight by Geralt on the first episode. The technique used, the strenght and the speed was incredible.


I think that was my favorite scene in the entire show I was very impressed

I like Cavill as Geralt.

The show is pretty disappointing outside of that though.

I feel like the show is as hard to get into as the game.

Long and drawn out... i didnt finish the 1st episode yet lmao

8.5 / 10

I very much enjoyed the show. I've played all 3 games and have read 3 of the books so far.

The time jumps were sometimes difficult to keep up with, and some of the cheesy moments didn't fit well - EX. Yen and Geralt having a quick smooch while he blasts the Reavers with Aard. - Also Yen fighting with swords/daggers and being proficient. She's a mage, not adept to swords.

I digress.... overall i was very happy. Room for improvement but overall very strong showing.

The fight scenes are spectacular. Cavill does a great job, as does the other main characters.
