I have a friend who really likes to read nerd fantasy like that.
He told me that the Witcher books are pretty bad, or at least very mediocre. More specifically, he did not like the plot and some of the dialogue and scenes did not make sense to him.
That's enough for me to never pick the books up.
>>
>>25235771
The Witcher books only really make sense in Polish. They have a very specific writing style that doesn't translate well into non-slavic languages.
>>
>>25235774
I am pretty sure that my friend read translations in his Slavic language.
I am not even joking. He hates reading in English when he has his native options.
>>
>>25235777
In that case he has shit taste

He wanted her to remain a virgin, but also wanted to "corrupt" her during the rats arc.

Kek, only if you are Polish. The 2001 series was fucking garbage, just look at this short.

idk about that but witcher was mid as fuck

I like how unapologetically horny and how much of a male fantasy it is. I think that has sort of disappeared from our culture.
>>
>>25236611
the fuck are you on about? Its not a male fantasy in any way.
>>
>>25236619
>Witchers are super powered mutants that can move quickly
>they fight monster and other horrors
>Geralt is a stone cold legendary lvl 20 D&D warrior
>Geralt, like all the witchers, can get women wet just by touching them
>he fucks nearly all female characters throughout all the books
It has some nuance, but how is this not a male power fantasy?
>>
>>25234748
He reminds me a bit of Wilford Brimley. Both of us have the diabeetus too.
>>
>>25236634
wut

>>25234764
Yeah, this. Also, don't forget the French playwright Guillaume Secouevoulge. Some even see some influences from as far afield as Schüttelnspieß or Agitalancia, but I think that's tenuous.
>>
>>25236611
>>25236619
Whether it’s a male fantasy or not, Sapkow obviously writes his books left handed.
>>
>>25237544
Because of Geralt's moralfaggotry? The Lodge of Sorceresses is very clearly an evil and misguided organization.

the witcher books are shit and could only appeal to you if you're still 11-16 years old,
sapkowski is a retarded forever-seething boomer
>>
>>25236492
I severely doubt that it matters. Unless you are claiming that all Witcher translations are bad.
>>25235780
>>25236550
He is not low IQ, although anyone, who cannot read anything but fantasy, has shit taste.
But kowtowing before the Witcher novels is not a good look, either.

Aren't all the women promiscuous roasties?
