Big witcher fan, just finished the show an hour ago. Gotta say, strongly disagree. This whole season was just a prologue leading into the 'real' story. Despite that, they managed to fit in great stories that fans of the games would have wanted to see.
Ah well. I thought the story was bland and utterly predictable with badly written scenes and dialogue. Maybe the show is just not my type.
The game stories were so, so much better. One of the only games I’ve played that seriously emotionally impacted me. And changed my perception of games forever.
