I neither read the books nor played the games and I really question if they did the show for the people who already were hardcore fans. For the ones who weren't, the show is a confusing sequence of not so great swords' fights, low-budget monsters and random naked women's scenes.

Dialogues are awfull, sometimes even over melodramatic, soap opera-style. The pace so rushed you don't get invested in any character. They say they are in love with a character they met for two minutes and you questioned if is a joke. Or they develop a completely different life driving need from one episode to the next. The time jumps didn't help either, it could be interesting but is badly done which result in even less coherence of the characters development.

The only thing they bothered to build-up is the meeting between Geralt and Cirri, which is the reason why I'm gonna watch the three remaining episodes.
