The Witcher author says he's never played the games that cemented his fame: "I have no time for this, and it's not entertainment for me" (www.gamesradar.com)

This isn't about the writer of the games, is about the writer of the original book series that the games act as sequels. The guy hasn't played the games because he hates them in a way, in the sense that more people know about the world of the Witcher thanks to that "fad" (quote) than to his own prose.
