Going into the series I was petrified on how it will turn out. I'm a huge witcher fan so I went in with high expectations. The atmosphere was very witcher, costumes were on point. Sword fighting scenes were amazing. Geralt was played exquisitely, kudos to the actor. This series should not be compared to anything. It is its own unique story with its own atmosphere. I can't wait to see more character development and progression to the story. So far so good. Most bad/mediocre reviews I've read are from old people that do not get it, that's fine. It hit its target audience very well, unfortunately you are not it.
