      I haven’t been following the Witcher fan discussion group for a while, but what I recalled was that the Netflix show has deviated drastically from the source material (books) which many fans are pissed about, even the main star and fan expert of the material, Henry Cavill left in season 3.

      The game dev CD Projekt Red definitely has no rights to Netflix’s Witcher universe and it doesn’t matter. Fans are anticipating the release of Witcher 4 (code name Polaris) which will be a first of a trilogy.

        Yeah I’ve seen the backlash from the community leading up to Henry Caville’s departure, but I’ve been out of the loop so to say since moving over to Lemmy. I kind of assumed that it would be mutually beneficial for CDPR and Netflix to parter on promotions, since I assume it’s mutually beneficial in terms of Netflix subs and game purchases. Can’t blame CDPR for wanting to focus effort elsewhere though.
