Most people act indifferently to witchers in the books. They are for the most part just seen as relics from the past. Very few people actually have a problem with them. Of course, the games played up that angle to make the player feel special.

Basically he took a tiny lump sum instead of royalties for video game rights, calling CDPR faggots and that their stupid games would never take off. He's anal pained about it to this day, every interview with him where he brings it up is pitiful to watch.

>delusional enough to believe that the games benefit from fhe books' popularity
That's true for the first and second game you cockmongler.

It's weird, in one interview he'll say he's upset and mad at himself for not taking royalties or consulting CDPR on their games at all, but that he thinks they're well made and faithful creations of his work. Then in another he'll come off as a raving drunk who thinks fans brought in by the game's success aren't even human beings.

I loved all the little nods to events in the books. Memory loss was a convenient way to let a player control Geralt in an RPG environment while still keeping true to the book universe.

Yeah, plenty original stuff it's in the games. Like what? Syanna a.k.a. copypasted Renfri? or Priscilla a.k.a. bootleg Essi Daven? or Morkvark a.k.a. death-metal Nivellen? Do I have to go on?

Imagine being Geralt in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Triss Merigold, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight dress and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my game character and the book character." when all he really wants to do is fuck Yennefer in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Geralt and not only sit in that chair while Triss Merigold flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her burn scars and leathery skin, and just sit there, attempt after attempt, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, TRISS MERIGOLD LOOKS LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of black-haired sorceresses, sometimes with unicorns for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Kaer Morhen. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with magic in the previous months. And then she runs through the maze, and you know you could kill every single person in this party before the guards could put you down, but you walk there and endure, because you're fucking Geralt of Rivia. You're not going to lose your future in Toussaint over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

How so? Geralt is around 70 at the beginning of the books, and looks like he is in his mid/late 40s.
The problem with mads is that he is too famous nowadays and Netflix will never be able to afford him.

The worst offender for this is all the idiots suggesting Eva Green for Yennefer, maybe following it up with a fucking decade old photo of her from Casino Royale or some shit.

She looks a lot older now and age is getting to her. A near-40 year old woman should not be portraying a character who literally uses magic to maintain her youth, beauty and physical appearance. Yennefer should look almost exactly the same in the final season as she does in the first.

They should get someone around 30 who looks pretty youthful, like Janet Montgomery or something.

>not realizing that a witcher's lifespan is insanely long, therefore Geralt physically ages really slowly and perhaps not at all
If not for the white hair he'd look like in his thirties.

Also, let's not forget that it's a physically demanding role and will require quite a commitment from the actor, they're not gonna pick an older actor.
>>
>>86273113
Geralt looks more like he's in his mid-late 30s, not 40s.

Not to mention getting an older actor comes with various problems when they get around to the sword fighting, physical stunts etc. As fit as Mads might be, he's not going to be as spry and active as a 30-35 year old actor, which is important considering Geralt's supposed to have superhuman physical capability so they need a pretty capable actor who can at least get close to that.
