I think Madison Headrick is basically Triss but with blonde hair. Dye her hair red and she's Triss. Even talks like her. She is from North Carolina. I highly recommend the books as I have written here in the past. Unlike Game of Thrones, the Witcher books are good from beginning to end and frankly feel longer than GOT because so much happens. And there is more psychological depth in Sapkowski's writing than GRRM. So the main characters (Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri) are better than any of the GOT characters. The audiobooks for the Witcher should be free on youtube. They keep on getting uploaded there. I just downloaded them all and went through them in that way. The books provide a satisfying ending as well. But CDPR made the whole franchise even better by rebooting the story and continuing where Sapkowski left off. After the books, the games are heavily influenced by nearly everything in the novels so people can enjoy them all over again and see things differently and pick up where the myriad book references (in the world building, hundreds of characters, dialogue etc) are coming from. Blood and Wine is a perfect final adventure and most of the fanmade 'Farewell to the White' wolf is satisfying epilogue that connects both books and games. For me it's the best franchise ever due to all these immense components coming together. (books, music, games).

It seems to be this way (not just woke thing ruining the show/film but also in terms of business circumstances) for so many great franchises that are in development pause. Fallout looks to be dead. Metal Gear Solid, one of my top 5 favorite franchises has been dead since 2015. Bioshock franchise is dead. I am in the final hours of "A Song of Ice and Fire". I am realizing that the author/showrunners were literally stuck in the early 2010s, and couldn't write their way into a worthy final act.

Have you seen the original Avatar? It was a mediocre film with outstanding special effects. It was considered forgettable by audiences although it was the biggest grossing movie of all time. COVID-19 damaged the movie industry and since then nobody really cared about the Avatar franchise since 2009. IMHO I found the characters to be creepy and I can't be the only person who thinks this way. The second film's reviews revealed that the movie has the same general pattern of being OK but with CGI as the main draw. So far the film is poised to be in the top 10 grossing films of all time.

Avatar 2 is actually doing well in the box office, and will surpass Top Gun 2 soon. I guess they had good marketing & sales analytics that went against common sense logic. In this case common sense was wrong.

This AI art is awesome and gives a look as to how a "Metal Gear Solid" film could pan out. The game movie has been in development hell for many years, with news of something being made from time to time and then..nothing.

https://vimeo.com/785632153 I did some voice acting today, and did this Witcher scene. This is my first and only read-through of the scene. The scratchy voice is Geralt, the servant is the slave voice, and the deep one is me being Charles Dance

This channel has a lot of 1st person walks through the various W3 maps. For me Toussaint is my favorite world in open-world gaming. The rest in W3 are great as well but somehow I keep on coming back to this one. Nelquea - YouTube- What did you last buy!

These reputation attacks are classic moves, that women can do while men can't. Because if men do that they look like a bitch and it'll backfire on them lol. Women have more flexibility in this area. Where were these people when HC was actively working on the show? They had to wait until he left to attack him. The silver lining behind this drama is that maybe the show will fail after Season 4 and the rights will be sold to a better company & better director. Then they will realize that they might as well make the Witcher 3 show as that's what most fans want anyway... one can dream- Metal Gear Solid 5: Phantom Pain
