So, anyone read the books and follow the video games. A quick question. Other than names and places...does any of the new woke shitfest follow the original plot? Cause, I'm a fan of the games, and while there's a little bit from them, it's mainly just 'muh diversity' fanfiction with plots they pulled out of their ass.

It's funny because I always see Henry Cavill being quoted in articles saying he'll keep starring in Witcher seasons as long as its "faithful to Sapkowski's work." Tell me Henry, is black Triss (always redheads) and black elves (only white elves in the novels) faithful to his work too? Along with a myriad of other things.
Cavill is a moron.
Dude is pushing for a Mass Effect show too.
I can see it now:
Black Miranda, Asian Ashley, trans Jack, Latina Liara.
Tali with a derka derka accent.
They will be all non-very attracitive too, cuzz hot chicks = bad.
Keep in mind there are 2 distinct groups of elves in the Witcher universe.
The ones shown so far are relatively meek and timid population that come into conflict with every other race in the Witcher world because despite assurances from everyone every race is racist as fuck. Because of how the Witcher universe works almost every race is displaced from somewhere due to a dimensional alignment event called the "Conjunction of Spheres" which lets different worlds bleed over now and again. This is how vampires arrived into the Witcher world for example as well as humans and various others. The existing humans arrived into the world at some point and came into conflict with the elves who were an offshoot from the other group I'll mention below. The elves lose this conflict for the most part because elves still have somewhat of a stereotype of living longer and reproducing slower. What gets left is numerous rag-tag groups of fighters that will take any and all action against humans, children included, as a justified means to continue the fight. All the while attacking and murdering random civvies who have no connection whatsoever with any of the fighting and doing little else except continually feeding the racial hatred between the two.
The other group that haven't been shown yet are the ones that include the third game's titular Wild Hunt. They're bigger, stronger, and far, far more powerful than the other elves and are best described as "baby eating Nazi's on crack" as in their home dimension they tried to genocide the only other sapient race that was there: Unicorns. Their world is dying and they desperately want the power Ciri has in order to have the fuel needed [quite literally, they intend to use her simply for breeding stock/rape material so their own king can sire a savior with the power Ciri has since it was originally from one of their elves in the first place] to displace their dying civilization into the Witcher world and they have absolutely zero intention of sharing the world if they manage to do it.
So for all the Elf Lives Matter allegory/stupidity they are setting up by racewashing all the elves [WHICH WERE MEANT TO BE DRYADS DURING THE BROKILON SCENE!] they're going to create a massive clusterfuck that the normies are going to start noticing if the series manages to get that far.
Also a reminder Nilfgaard is colloquially referred to as "The Black Ones" because of how much black they incorporate into their dress style. Sails, clothing, flags, etc.
You forgot Indian or whatever the fuck Yen.
I thought she was an amerimutt stereotype.
