@josemateus7386

I've watched Arcane and Edgerunners, and is an absurd how amazing these shows are. I think it is really complex to write a good show inspired by a game, when you think about the interactive part, how to make the player feel a part of the story if they are not controlling? Its impossible right? So to me, the best you can do is to show something the game didn't show us or at least didn't show us enough, don't get me wrong tho, its fundamental to honor the original material, but for example in League of legends you obviously can't root for Jinx or Vi, neither follow then in a journey while meeting characters you learned to love in the game or in Edgerunners, i have never played Cyberpunk, but it's frankly because im not much fond of RPG's, especially one that the world feels so dead and shallow (i know it's not, at least not shallow, but it feels like that you know?), i've never felt compelled to play until i watched Edgerunners then i instantly felt the necessity to relieve that experience somehow, and there you have it, to me that is how you make something great, you study it, you experience, if you can love it thats good, but it's not fundamental, but you have respect it and tell something new, something truly cool, show us the world, things we didn't know we needed to see, cause otherwise we will always have the games to replay and experience that same story you know?

The biggest reason why Arcane was such a success was because Riot utilized their own in-house team. In other words, the same people who wrote and created the world of league of legends in its entirety and all the champions, the factions each belonged to, how each one tied into a bigger narrative plot, and how each were unique. And this is just from a lore standpoint, not even including how they function in-game. And whenever Riot was offered by other outside executives and producers to help "aid" the show, what did they do? They outright turned them down. And what was the result? 100% critic score and a 96% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes Three Emmy awards including Outstanding Animated Program and Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation Won Game Award for Best Adaptation of 2022 Broke records by becoming the first video game adaptation to win both Annie Awards and Primetime Emmy Awards And made an estimated 1 billion $ in profit Blood Origins. You literally share the same platform to one of if not the best show adaptations of a beloved franchise. You have a literal shining example right in front of you. This should not be rocket science.

They create narratives about people who largely don't exist and then strawman critics as belonging to that group of people. They use the outrage as a shield by strawmanning complaints as hate speech. And by declaring their shows to stand against racism and sexism, they misrepresent discontent as hate speech in order to justify their shit shows and continued work within the industry. Losses are written off in taxes and are almost certainly - "accidentally" - exaggerated to the point where the company ends up making profit while positioning itself as "taking a stance" against discrimination (in spite of the hypocritical nature of the shit they produce).

They probably had a script ready intended for an original IP at first, realized it was mediocre and would be impossible to market, so they bought something recognizable to slap on it just so the studio can get something out the door.

8:10 is how I felt about Multiverse of Madness. Sam Raimi was *proud* of the fact that he had barely watched or looked at any of the media containing the characters he was making an entire movie about.

there is a lore reason for why it was only elves, dwarves and gnomes, or at least its supposed to be, and that's because in the Witcher universe there is this event called the conjunction of the spheres, basically all of the realms collided and the beings from each realm were thrown into this one realm. Humans come into play after this event, along with monsters and other things and this show is supposed to take place before this.

I think it makes more and more sense why Nintendo decided to purchase their whole entire own studio for things like this.

The problem with modern writing is that they write stories _about_ franchises instead of writing stories _within_ franchises. In a recent video titled "Why do Halo fans argue about this..?", Late Night Gaming criticized the current state of the Halo franchise by comparing it to the Disney Star Wars trilogy in that they both feel like they were written by people who were hyper-aware that they were writing about these franchises and- instead of telling stories about the characters and events in those universes- ended up writing these deconstructions of the I.P.s which merely plug in the expected elements in an insecure way. I feel like that describes a lot of franchises now.

They see themselves as "artists" and can't handle "work", and that's why they always have to respin something "in their own way". In this case they are also incompetent hacks that can't write a script to save their lives and got the job because "muh diversity/representation" which is a different discussion. What happened with Peter Jackson and Lord of the Rings is one of the very few exceptions, and hopefully Henry Cavill's next project about Warhammer 40k will also be one of the rare exceptions as now he should be the one steering the ship.

You can create diverse roles without making it overtly clear you don’t like a particular group.

When you mention this show felt like it was originally it was supposed to be something else and then they slapped The Witcher license on it, and it felt like a bad CW show. My mind immediately went to the Resident Evil show they did last year. I think they did the exact same thing with both of those shows. They knew the series was gonna be bad halfway through filming, then they pitch the idea to get a license then change everything up to match, not really caring about the IP but just trying to get away with the bare minimum effort and hope they make their money back on it.

Even high school theater will teach you freshman year that a writer/director must show not tell a story. This applies for theater/movies.

The reason Hollywood keeps giving these old franchises to people who don't like or even HATE the property is because in their minds... you don't want a fan who will potentially gatekeep and just preach to the choir...the goal of every Hollywood production adaptation is to expand the audience beyond its original core fanbase... and you will rarely get that from just the same people who made the property or fans... you need a different and fresh perspective.

notice the difference between the source material for like arcane and the Witcher though, that's the key, that's what determines whether the show will be good or not. LoL has a very "modern" lore with a diverse cast and new world values written in, everything is colorful and edgy and the showrunners like the material and are therefore willing to have passion and make something good. Meanwhile, the lore of the Witcher, the books, the games, etc all of it is very old world, old very values, very based material, written by someone with a "realistic" fantasy world in mind, that's why the characters are complex and deep, so of course modern writers wouldn't like it and therefore won't write a good show for it. Basically, Hollywood has proven to us time and time again that if the lore of the series doesn't share their modern values and outlook on the world, then they aren't going to do a good job bringing it to the big screen. period.

It's sad because the thing I enjoy most about Sapkowski's writing is his characters. The Netflix writers looked at the bare "lore" elements, saw Elves and Dwarves and thought "I've seen those before. I could write a fantasy story with those in it." That's Blood Origin - a poorly conceived pointless "prequel" to a series it barely references or adds to. If you want to know more about the conjunction of the spheres event mentioned in the Witcher show just watch a youtube video of a fan explaining it, because if you were confused before Blood Origin sure isn't going to clear anything up for you. I feel a sense of profound loss with this IP, because I'm fully aware that the writers aren't ever going to listen to criticism and will continue doing whatever they want despite everyone begging them to stop - every interview where the show runners are questioned about their response to blacklash it's so obvious they have no respect for the people invested in their projects and dismiss every negative reviewer as "racist and sexist because you just don't like seeing non-white, non-male people in fantasy". It's in one ear out the other, I'm sick of companies hiring self-absorbed narcissists who actively look down on the IP's they're getting paid to adapt; there must be so many others who are actually massive fans desperate to make proper, faithful adaptations to the IP's they love but they never seem to get hired anymore.

This reminds me of hollywoods view on books and video games compared to movies. They believe that the movie is the go to end all of the rules. So often times when a company gets an IP that started with comics, books, or video games. They believe that they can just ignore the source material. Do it their own way, and just because it’s a movie they think everyone will just blindly accept it. This is a massive reason why video game movies often fail so hard.

I personally think it's a matter pride with these young and (in their minds) up and coming writers who want to make a name for themselves in the industry. They don't want to follow an IPs established lore because it's "not their creation", so they do their own thing and act surprised when people get upset that it's nothing like the IP.
