Netflix The Witcher Trailer - Coming December 20
- Thread starter Xavi
- Start date
Triss?
Aside from the hair color, I would have said Ciri with Dandelion's clothes.
Very good trailer, can't wait!
Why not both? Healthy competition is only beneficial for us consumers.
That looked damn good. Could this show be one of the greats?
No. That does not look like Anna Shaffer at all to me. I didn't see Triss in the trailer.Triss?
They sure did. Geralt is basically wearing a palette-swapped version of the default armor from the third game, same hairstyle as well.
Haven't played more than 20 minutes of Witcher 2 or 3 and haven't read any of the Books. Should I finish any before attempting to watch this?
You don't need to, it takes place before the games and adapts the book storyline more or less.
Copy pasting my post from the other thread:
Yep the Nilfgard armor still sucks and looks awful.
That being said I'll give it a watch. Still don't like Yen's casting at all but the rest looks on point and what little we got of the OST sounds on point.
I'll give it a shot if for nothing else but Cavill.

GoT had its fair share of botched contrasts, color grading, awful backdrops, and iffy CGI (besides the god tier dragons).
I've read all the books and I don't recall the medallion being described to be like this. I thought the only description was that it was a wolf with fangs. Happy to be proved wrong.
Yeah, finish the books. The first one, The Last Wish, at least. That's the book season 1 is mostly based off of.
Play all the games later because they're incredible, but they have nothing to do with the show at all. They're CDPR's take on the Witcher world.
What's weird is he changes accents at least three times after that. He sounds hyper-American in one line, then just like his native accent in another.
I know this isn't an adaptation of the games, but part of me really wishes Cavill had gone all-in on interpreting that signature voice - which it doesn't sound like he has.
Not sure how anyone could answer this without having seen it. I say go in blind tho, then play the games if it grabs your attention.
This looks pretty damn good. I just wonder why Cavill had to be clean shaved... They had to CG his face as Superman, and yet as The Witcher he goes clean-shaven... Besides that, and the medallion looking pretty plain, they nail Cavill's armoured look and he does a pretty convincing voice impression for Geralt
It feels a bit low-rent. And tonally I actually feel like the games cutscenes are in a better place, it's less overly dramatic than they're playing it here.
based on the polish original design, it's circular
edit: welp thats german, my bad
Geralt don't like beards. This is based on the books, not the games.
You should start and finish The Witcher 3 complete edition, not because of a TV show, but because it's one of the greatest RPGs ever made. Flawed, but still one of the greatest of all time.
This makes more sense and it explains the way the medallion looks
based from the first book
From The Last Wish:
As a Brit, I agree - but I don't know if Americans or anyone else can hear that , someone will enlighten us I'm sure.
But I like the idea of him paying homage but putting his own voice to it. Good job.
