I am a big fan of the games but I did not like Season 1. Besides Henry Caville nailing Geralt from the games (you can tell he played them), the acting felt over done in a lot of areas and having events happen out of chronological order made it even more frustrating to follow. It was a chaotic mess.

That being said, I just watched the first few episodes of season 2 and there has been a lot of improvement. First off, its actually holding my attention and certain chaotic elements have been toned down. Its actually been entertaining so far. The first episode felt like a one of those well written side quests in the games with a decent twist that contemplates about who is the real monster. I have just started and will likley update this review and score at a later date but so far Season 2 has been off to a good start and I hope it continues. If you are fans of the books or the games, you might have to deal with a sudden shock factor the showrunners decided to use to further the story but not really having much interaction with the character in the game, it wasn't as big of an issue for me. Your milage may vary but I would say give season 2 a shot.
