    game the sex scene are often at the stranges and dumbest times. It breaks the tone and pacing of the story all the time

    I’m sorry to say this is very faithful to the books.

      Well, that is then only another addition to my list of reasons not to read those books.

        I thought the books were great, at least the Geralt short stories. The Netflix series tracks the books well, at least in the first season, so if you liked that, you’d probably like the books.

        The main series has little to do with Geralt and I never bothered reading them.

          I don’t really like Geralt as a character, because most of the time he is a huge pile of 💩, a grim dark anti hero. I liked to play Witcher 1 because of his lost memories he was a much nicer and reasonable character, unlike his self in Witcher 3 which I only played for maybe six hours and put then away.

          I have seen 2 episodes of the series, no interest in seeing more.

            That’s probably what I like about him. He’s a blade for hire that’s bound by an oath to be fair. I found his moral code to be quite interesting.
