So he did play the games?

I saw in another interview that he was a fan of "the game". I am assuming he played Witcher 3 and that's it. Better than nothing though.

I mean, hopefully he's since read the books to learn about the character. But yes, the games alone are better than nothing aha.

Why? They'd just have to get rid of him like Cavill then.

The books have nothing to do with the story the show runners want to make, regardless of what they may say in public. If the books were something they cared about, Cavill would still be there and those first seasons wouldn't have fundamentally destroyed characters and their relationships.

You aren't wrong.
