Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 I have zero expectations that this will be any good - I'll be watching solely to see just how bad it can possibly get Quote
Chris- Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 I think it's going to be fantastic and I look forward to all of you eating shit. 2 Quote
The def star Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 With how well HBO did with Gam of Thrones this could potentially be the next big thing set in a fantasy setting. There are plenty of books to get material from. Not gonna set my expectations too high but the books have been great and the game is my favorite RPG this gen. Quote

I thought that was just a game mechanic for simplifying things. I was under the impression he normally stores it somewhere or something like that. Quote

Correct; in the books he keeps it stored, and only takes it out for especially rare situations. 1 Quote

I mean, the pictures look good, the main actor (Henry Cavill) is immensely committed to the part given his personal obsession with the games and it looks well funded. I just need to know more about the showrunners and writers and directors first. Quote

I think the current pictures look great and certainly are capturing the look of the characters well, which is a good sign, IMO. Quote

The showrunner is a woman and pissed off scores of Online White Men looooong before these photos were released, so she has a lot of potential. 1 1 Quote

Yeah, I mean, people online are so cynical. I want everything that's made to be good, and I try to use the evidence on hand to predict if something will be good or not. But I want everything to be the best version of itself. I want a really great The Witcher TV series. Doesn't everyone? Let's hope it is, and unless someone can specifically point to why something won't be good, I don't see any reason to hate on something just because it's easy to hate on things. Quote

I looked up the previous thread about this show to try to remind myself what exactly the complaints were but it quickly just turned into a thread about beards and Wade's weird dietary habits. Quote

Different interpretations of the source material are always more interesting than just taking all the best parts from different canonizations (though that's fine too). Quote

I don't want to watch The Witcher Game: The TV Show. They nailed the costumes though. Looks really good. Quote
legend Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Something about these images isn't working for me. Quote

I'll reserve judgment for actual footage though, there's been plenty of time things haven't looked good in stills and then looked fine in motion. Quote

Chris- Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Got to say, the 'hEs MiSsING a SwOrD!!!!' comments all over the internet are doing a good job of distinguishing between who read the books, and who is illiterate. 1 Quote
Massdriver Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 This could easily go either way. I think the pictures are a strong start. The costumes look good to me. Quote

Mercury33 Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Odd time to use “hella” to describe something but I’m down. Quote
Greatoneshere Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Still looks potentially good to me. At least Roach isn't glitching onto roofs. Quote
