Enjoying The Witcher adaptation on Netflix starring Henry Cavill as Geralt? So far, fans of the games and the book series have been delighted with Geralt’s streaming adventures and have expressed happiness with Cavill’s portrayal of Geralt. And now, in a recent interview, Cavill has revealed that he too is a big fan of The Witcher game franchise.
Henry Cavill is Really Into Playing The Witcher 3
Here is the relevant quote from CG Magazine:
“My first involved experience [with the franchise] was The Witcher 3,” he tells me, explaining how he’s now played developer CD Projekt Red’s 100-hour role-playing epic two-and-a-half times to completion, experimenting with different difficulty settings, first on regular difficulty and then on the game’s toughest setting, in order to find the perfect balance of fun and challenge.”
Cavill didn’t say how many hours he has logged on The Witcher 3, but we can guess it would be at least 150 by now, if not more.
There is something reassuring about knowing that the actors you are watching portray beloved characters may care as deeply about those characters, their stories, and their universe as you do. You know that it means that Henry Cavill will go the extra mile to bring Geralt to life and to respect and honour his character over the duration of the show.
While the core audience for the Netflix show is bound to be fans of The Witcher 3, people are also doubtless discovering the game via the show. Existing fans who have taken some time away from the game also may be rediscovering their passion for it, as indicated by the fresh record for “most concurrent players” for the game.
So, if you haven’t watched the series on Netflix yet, it is time to tune in. And if you have yet to experience the Witcher 3, it is time to play it at last and lose yourself in Geralt’s world.
