the games are already dead, CD Project Red arent making another one.
Why bother making an adaptation of something if you're gonna willingly alienate the fanbase? Why even waste money on the license?
Dunno. Sounds stupid from a business point of view. If you do something radical, you're not only alienating the book fanbase but you're also alienating those who know the Witcher because of the games.
how exactly would something that people don't have to buy tickets for flop?
People don't watch it?
Author of the books distanced himself from the series.
Video games have no connection, because the casting looks so different.
Alienating the fanbase Ghostbusters style.
This will be fun.
that's the whole business model, instead of courting the fanbase of the thing your're adapting you want to purposely enflame them with your changes and decisions.
The bigger the shitstorm the better. Then, cast a white character black or a male character female and use that change lump all the other criticism together as 'alt-right' 'white males' and rake in the virtue points and publicity
Ironically Hulk dislikes ALL puny humans.
I'm not gonna bother watching unless this gets fucking amazing reviews somehow.
The writers room is off putting as fuck, you just know they wont be able to keep their political agendas out of the show.
Ego, greed, and spite
I think the Witcher fanbase already got its shitstorm out of the way a while back when the cast was first announced. At this point I think most of us who either like the games or the books (or both) will just ignore the show when its released.
How badly is what going to flop, I see a Hulk reaction image and a non-Yea Forums tweet
>how badly is a book going to flop
Not Yea Forums
Why did you have to point out that book? Is it so important? We already know that they're leftist from the posters that they're holding.
>I frequently feel like brutally murdering my political opposition
so, this is the secret to getting verified on twitter
That never works. Why don't they ever see this never works. It's like spraying kerosene on a dying fire and getting frustrated when the fire still dies.
Because it's about social engineering
Woman needs to be put in her place.
Netflix shows can't "flop", theyll just hide the information on how no one watched it
>patriarchy smasher
how fucking pathetic
another worthless thread in this shit hole
>OP's always a faggot
oh yeah
It's a kind of cultural conquest to them
They enjoy destroying things and spreading division
Show is dead on arrival, but all the people who picked up the series because they needed a Skyrim replacement will love it.
anyone know the sauce of the final scene
Skyrim had a show?
I'm looking forward to the shitposting.
>how badly is this going to flop, I hope it doesn't kill the games as well
it's worse than you realize
it's all dead, bury it
NPC SJWs are like the wights from GoT. This brainwashed shit is legit frightening. And media jews are the white walkers animating and controlling them. Pottery.
Non of them have Read/Played The Witcher have they.
>Why bother making an adaptation of something if you're gonna willingly alienate the fanbase?
same with star wars and a million other things, they want to destroy what you hold dear and use it a propaganda tool to try to brainwash the upcoming generations, it's that simple
Humiliation, demoralization, conquest.
Subvert snd destroy.
you know you fucked it up when your mom is writing the screenplay of your favorite videogame
*jewish mom
Why do white women age like milk, bros
Because they look good when they are young, unlike non-white women, who look good never.
that's sun damage, it's an example of short-sightedness. If she wore sunscreen she'd still look OK
jesus dude wtf is wrong with you
that nigger just sitting there and he doesnt even have a sing for him...
this shit always get me.
>Because they look good when they are young, unlike non-white women, who look good never.
this
Go outside more often or get your testosterone levels checked. Actually, don’t. More girls for me

>More girls for me
LOL, go feed your cats, ma'am.
lol nvm
The potential $$$ made by destroying white men and ushering in an era of "social justice" is vastly greater than the $ made by making a faithful adaption of a franchise. They think big scale, so creating poor products with the intent to enflame others actually benefits them.
and then nobody watches it
they're ok with that, at least it's destroyed
Doubt they won't do a prequel or spin-off after Cybersex. Too much money on the table.
the people making the decision to make the adaptaition have no idea what the material is, nor do they care. they're suits. they then hand the project down to people who do care, but are 90% stupid losers and neurotic idiots, who thinks they are getting one over on everyone by being a stupid little contrarian bitch.
the writers produce shit, it gets produced by people who dont care about anything other than getting through the next day/paycheck, and won't risk causing a stir over pointless creative conflicts they wouldnt win and would cause them to lose career prospects, if they even cared a little bit in the first place
then you watch it and get mad because you think everyone did it to spite you
then the suits scratch their head and go, "well, investments are really just a kind of gambling that I happen to get really rock hard about, you win some you lose some. matter of fact I'm rock hard right now, because gambling is inherently masochistic. It must simply have been a bad franchise I chose. lets try doing the same thing all over again with a different one"
Imo, it isn't about making something that's successful financially or critically but to "conquer" the property. When it comes to progressives, they just care to push their politics above anything else.
Yeah it's a porn scene. An ANAL porn scene
she's right, though
there's nothing inherently wrong with being a Social Justice Warrior
>We don't want the fanbase!
>We just want to make a political statement!
I dont understand how these people get jobs when from an objective standpoint the quality of their work is always non existent
This isn't without precedent:

People dont watch. Nobody watches it, its license doesnt get renewed, and netflix takes a dent
Author of the books is salty because asked for 2g instead of royalties on the games even when CDPR tried offering a hefty percentage sales.
It tanks the show, but it launches the writer/director into massive popularity. They get to go on talk shows, take interviews etc talking about their work and how the evil (Bad People) you can fill in the parenthesis with whatever bad buzzword you want, incels, nazis, gamergaters, misogynists, who cares. And claim their horrible insensitivy is what REALLY tanked the show. So that writer gets to be a celebrity and rakes in money and fame for their efforts. Then they get all the career opportunities in the world. Every studio everywhere wants them. Partially due to that level of mainstream popularity, and partially due to their politics makes them an amazing choice for the studio to make claims of being progressive and forward too just for hiring X writer.
All it really takes is intentionally tanking an already dead series for Netflix or Starz. It's kind of selfish, since the product is bad, fans are insulted, and the franchise might die because of it. But that one person gets to be a media darling for a few weeks and make a shitload of sympathy politics money.
It's the new way of playing the system for individual benefit.
who want incels and retards who self identify as a "gamer" as their audience?
this is a tv series, everyone with a netflix subscription can watch it
why restrict yourself to the most hated community of the western world, when you can shoot for the game of thrones crowd?
Its more the SJW and little kids that identify and call themselves "gamers" these days.
It's a conquest to them. They take something that is Western and European and destroy it on purpose to defile it and smirk. It's how they demonstrate power. It's like burning someone's flag or religious icons while they do nothing to stop it.
it's a kind of cargo cult mentality--they see a thing doing well with a strong fanbase, and think that if they go in and drastically change it while keeping the name they'll have control over those fans. it's sad because this has to be done by people who would either accept this in something they enjoy personally and so think this logic tracks, or who have a rock bottom opinion of the common person
It's a mix of these. They learned that intentionally funneling their politics will get THEM more fame and money than the show itself. Nobody really cares about the show at all but the writers who generated this will become celebrities on all social and mass media and be hugely successful for doing it. It really is an all new means of playing the system for personal gain.
She looks like the only thing she knows how to smash is the fridge every night.
Another question might be, why are studios almost overwhelmingly hiring these types of people for all their projects in the last 5 years?
They do not seem to be helping out much and injecting politics is not making a huge amount of money for anyone. So why keep doing it and keep on hiring people that they understand will intentionally damage the brand?
>why are studios almost overwhelmingly hiring these types of people for all their projects
look this is the deal:
make an adaptation of something you dont like or care about´and normal people and nerds does, put your bullshit politics in it, fuck it for everyone and now none can enjoy things that you don't like. we should do the same with shit like harry potter and shit like that.
>using got references
>using tv references on a tv board
game of thrones fans hate their own show
Have kids
This shit's gonna crash and burn so hard.
>to the most hated community of the western world
and there is the answer to all of the "Why are they doing this?" questions with movies and tv series. Gamers, which is now synonymous with incels and racists are considered the single worst group of people on the planet so not only are people going out of their way to not cater to them at all, they are going even further to chase them away from anything tv show or series.
While not making a single dollar in revenue or even casual viewership, it will still be showered with awards and accolades. While having an army of clickbait writers drumming up article after article about how amazing it is. It will bring in nothing but positive reviews from everyone.
The Witcher has an option to skip gameplay and just watch cutscenes, so probably some of them have.
speak for yourself, baizuo trash
You keep forgetting that CDPR are not Amerikikes.
Jews can't help it
Literally all kikes
Just like Notch. We'll see.
Dubs and underrated
