Was a bit odd with linking the different times, but once you got the hang of it everything converged nicely. Actors playing Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri were spot on which is great for the main characters, but the side characters were all interesting as well. I played barely enough of the 1st game, but was thrilled by the striga episode and the backstory they added to an otherwise short cut scene. Looking forward to s2!
