First of all, I do not know the books or games and came into this completely open minded.

I just started episode 6 ane will finish the season cause it's enjoyable enough and I hope everything comes together in the end.

I think the actress who plays Yennefer does well but I do not yet get what her role/goal purpose is. I am not wowed by Henry Cavill's acting but apparently the no emotions fits his role.

The one thing that does bother me is the jumping between timelines. People are alive in one story that are dead in another story in which they are then alive again because apparently we are still in story two but again in timeline one. Confused? So am I

Conclusion, fine, but not great, has potential though!
