Did you specifically pull from the book series or did you also draw inspiration from the Witcher games? Does that muddy the waters a little bit to draw from too many sources? Honestly I'm more concerned about this than who's acting in the thing tbh --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

You mean racist nerds were tinfoiling for no reason? I cant believe that! It's not racist to want characters to be done properly.

Vyrulisse 10/10/18 6:37:49 PM #189: |
It's going to be judged against the games because when people think Geralt they hear his voice from the games and he's still a highly popular character as are most of them from the games. Fair or not that's how it's gonna be so they should try to pander a little or get roasted.

I haven't played much of the Witcher series, so I'm probably about to embarrass myself, but my understanding was that black people come from a specific place/location in the Witcher lore, and Ciri is not from that place, so making her character black for the Netflix show wouldn't make sense.

The description of Zerrikania is sort of African-esque but I don't remember it being explained that they're black people. Just desert people.
