Its just stupid to come into this series with an expectation that this series Will slam you in the face with "this is the next GOT, Im hooked". This is not the next game of Thrones. Simple as that. Just because Netflix honored the story of the witcher with a high budget and an actual attempt to make a great series that does not mean they tried to replace or take a place of another series. To claim they wanted to beat/take over the "wheel" of GOT is just stupid. No such statements where ever made. If you go in with those expectation I get that you feel let down. This is a whole diffrent story. I read the books and played all the games. For us who know the actual story, i think we went in with lower expectations. I admit i was hyped, but hyped in the hope of Netflix not ruining a great story. The story of the witcher is not an easy task to make into a TV show. Nonetheless they made such a great job Im actually really impressed. I admit a couple of scens in a few episodes feelt abit cheap of a sort. But the overall judgement is that this series actually hit a full spot on. I hope it continues to roll on for a few years with the same goal of accurasy and feel for the story. If you love the story like I do. You should support this attempt of making it into a TV show instead of compllaining about GOT... PS: (even if a couple of scens seem cheap, atleast I can promise it wont be a boring kid in a wheelchair that Will become the next king of cintra)
