    I’m not really familiar with the source material, but Cavill is a joy to watch when he’s paired up with good material. Looks like he’s doing a good job in landing a diverse list of productions so that he won’t be labeled as Superman for his entire career.

    I know nothing about the books or games but damn that trailer looks good! I’m looking forward to going into this series without expectations!

    With a lore rich and deep, It'll fill the gap left by GOT. The timing is brilliant.
    Geralt is such a flawed character as well.
    I've got over 1000 hours into The Witcher 3 and it is without doubt the best game i've played in 40 years of gaming. A true masterpiece. Cavill is telling the truth when he says he was obsessed with the game. You can tell. He won't need to do any research. He's there already as an actor.

    Absolutely imho.
    I rate Link to the past over Ocarina for reference

    Link to the Past was great and what kicked off that world, but Ocarina was the pinnacle of that series for me! There’s no telling how many times I played through that game and it’s one of the main reasons, if not THE reason I still keep my N64.

    Anyway, I heard out of Comic-Con that the show is based off the books more than the game, so hopefully it can still live up to expectations for ya!

    Those early Zelda games really are works of art and timeless.

    Casting is spot on to the games considering there was a bit of an uproar in the community when they were all announced.
    The Yennefer actress particularly comes across exactly as she is in the game.

    I did not watch GoT, and I haven't seen any trailers. But I did play the first Witcher game briefly and the world it's set in really appeals to me. I'll probably catch this, despite my general aversion to fantasy.

    It should appeal to most people here. I hope enough give it a chance. Cavill seems obsessed with the role

    I remember now that he was a World of Warcraft-player. He probably played The Witcher too
