Fallout is a series filled top to bottom with passionate fans of the games. The Witcher was… very much not that.
If you’re skeptical, watch Tim Cain’s (Game director of Fallout 1) videos about the show and meeting the people who made it.
I didn't even know the Witcher was a game until right now lol
Book to game to show
Director and Executive Producer Jonathan Nolan was also heavily involved in Westworld, which had exactly one good season before it shit itself to death. Also this is Amazon Studios which produced both Rings of Power and Wheel of Time. Executive Producer James Altman, has one other credit: Associate Producer for Super Troopers 2. In fact most of the writers and producers have poor resumes.
I’m hopeful but not naive.
