The Witcher S3 - IGN Rating of 7: Strict Adherence to Source Material Causes Loss of Enjoyment
2023-06-30
On June 29, The Witcher Season 3 officially premiered on Netflix, and IGN gave the first five episodes of this medieval fantasy series a score of 7. The review suggests that the show's dry treatment of court intrigue and prophecies obstructed the limited genuine enjoyment of true fantasy.
IGN: 良好
总评:The first five episodes of Season 3 of The Witcher showcased the chemistry between Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, Anya Chalotra as Yennefer, and Freya Allan as Ciri. However, the series' strict adherence to its source material pushed them aside, leaving them immersed in prolonged misty court intrigue, prophecies, and conspiracies. It becomes difficult to compare these aspects with the impressive scenes of Cavill wielding his sword against formidable beasts.
The Witcher Season 3 consists of a total of 8 episodes, with the first five episodes released at once, and the latter half set to premiere on July 27.
