I think as a stand alone product this show is good, it has good world building, decent characters and brilliant visuals. But as some one who has played the games I can tell you it is a massive disappointment. The characters are shells of there former selves and honstely were just pathetic compared to there video game counterparts. The world felt comparatively shallow with lots of prior knowledge needed to understand the smaller parts of the show and the side following geralt witcher business, his fighting and magic and even the monsters was just shrugged of and given under 2 episodes. Even the whole fantasy elements fell to the side until the very end in favor of watching more docume tary like foutage. To conclude, if you like fantasy actions shows its for you but if you have played the Witcher trilogy and want to get a good telling of the backstory go read the books.
