A bit of technical criticism, not regarding acting or quality of narrative.

It gets a bit tough to catch everything when the character you task with a lot of exposition is a new character who speaks in whispers and grunts AND has tusks masking his mouth movement.

I'd recommend captions for that bit.

I’ve watched shows and movies with captions now for years. It makes it so I can know exactly what they’re saying.

Or it’s because I’m getting older.

Yeah, I think even captioning is getting in on the overall narrative game, or at least the creators are collaborating on complex narratives. Often, even if main characters are speaking clearly, you find out with captioning that crucial little tidbits are being said by people in crowds or offscreen, that you would never catch even with perfect hearing and total attention.

So if I am watching a complex and nuanced show, like say Succession, I default to captions even if I know I'm following most of it and can hear and register most of the central narrative clearly.

Yeah, I don't know how old she is supposed to be in the show, but she...uh...grew up a lot between seasons...

I watched 1-3 last night before I got tired and had to go to bed 10 minutes in to ep. 4. I'm confused a lot this season. I'll definitely have to binge it again, maybe a few times. So far it's just confusing, and the dialog is hard for me to follow. Seems there is a fair amount of low talking quickly by people with accents and shit. Maybe captions is the way to go.

In any case, I'm not as enthralled as I was for season 1. But it's still early yet.

Subtitles help. So does playing the games. I admit that I'd be fairly lost if I hadn't had a basic understanding of the characters and the story before watching. I mostly know what the monsters are before they're identified, as well as the spells and potions that he uses to fight them.

I finished episode 2 last night.
Spoiler!


But I'm digging it. And the cursed guy in episode 2 looked amazing. Not sure if it was CGI or just really awesome makeup. I guess if you can't tell they win.

Still hate ugly Triss, though.

Geralt names all his horses Roach. It’s because he out lives them so he doesn’t give them individual names.

Waiting for a verdict on this before I watch. I would hate to watch and be disappointed. One of the few shows I've actually enjoyed in the last decade.

It was just okay. I was hoping for more but after watching the season and then reading on Reddit about how they wanted to bring more female characters to the forefront of the show….it kind of fell flat.
