The first promotional images of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher Netflix series have been released in the form of posters that show Ciri, Geralt, and Yennefer. The fans quickly noticed something strange about⛦ the Geralt poster, as he only has a single sword strapped to his back.
The vast majority of the fans of The Witcher franchise outside of Poland are most familiar with the video games developed by 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:CD Projekt Red. The version of Geralt from the video games wields two swords on his back at all times - a steel sword that he uses against humanoid enemies, and a silver sword that he saves for monsters. Silver is a flimsy metal in real life and wouldn't normally be used for a weapon, but the monsters of The Witcher universe are vulnerable to its touch.
The Witcher TV show won't be adapting the video games, even though they are the most popular aspect of the franchise. The TV show is actually going to be an adaptation of The Witcher novels which the games are al☂so a lওoose adaptation of.
In The Witcher novels and short stories, Geralt still requires two swords in order to complete his duties, but he 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:doesn't carry them on his perso🤡n at all times. Geralt keeps his steel sword by his side, but he usually keeps his silver sword on his horse or with his possessions.
The reason the silver sword is saved for special occasions is that it doesn't work on every monster. There are certain weaker monsters that can be slain with regular weapons, which means that witch𒅌ers aren't a﷽lways required to hunt them down.
It was surprising to learn that The Witcher TV show isn't adapting the video games, as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the most popular games of the current generation. The fact that most fans of The Witcher video games are unfamiliar with the novels means that there is a lot of fr𒁃esh c🎶ontent for them to enjoy in the future and Geralt ditching his two-sword style from the games means that the TV show won't be leaning too heavily on the more famous design of the character.
The Witcher series will ⛦be released on Netflix in Autumn 2019.
