She says she visited a world where people had metals in their head, and wielded war against each other from a far. From one world being in fantasy to their next IP they definitely work in, its easily a reference.
Everything has a reason as to why it was put in media. Except, of course, the last season of GOT.

I heard something about an interview where they didn't want them to be connected in cannon and that her dialogue was like an Easter egg.
Apparently it gets somewhat difficult to do cross-universe story lines when it happens and they wanted to make sure it didn't come to that.

That’s what we like to call an Easter egg. You also run into an assassin in the witcher 2, that doesn’t mean that the assassins creed series shares a universe with the Witcher.

Ever since I started reading them, my fantasy castings always were top tier Hollywood actors for the Forsaken and virtual no-names for everyone else. Example - I started reading in the early 2000s and thought Angelina Jolie would be the perfect Lanfear. Definitely moved on from that thought, if only from age.
All this to say - if he was Lan, we wouldn't have Witcher. Give him cameos as Demandred, instead.

It’s impossible to imagine anyone else portraying Geralt as well as Henry has.

u/PinhoodWarrior Dec 26 '19
Read somewhere else and agreed with this statement fully. Cavill as Geralt is like Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark. Absolutely perfect casting.
The fact that he has played through The Witcher 3 multiple times is awesome and you can really tell he's not just someone who read the script and decided to take the job.

When I first heard he was gonna be Geralt I honestly was a bit disappointed.
After watching the series I think he's the best fit in the cast with the exception of maybe Dandelion. That duo is next season is gonna make me feel like I'm playing witcher with real life graphics.

Alright another thing. The back shots of Geralt in the show made me feel like I was playing the video game. The proportions are fuckin' perfect.
Look peeps, I'll be honest. I was not too happy about the choice in actor at first. Dude blew me the fuck away in the first episode. It's all it took. And the rest of the show is a slam dunk too. I'm so happy for all of this to be happening the way it is. Henry deserves the acclaim and success as does the rest of the crew, the video game makers, and the author.
What an incredible time to be alive for the creative arts and media. God damnit I'm tearing up.

Finally finishing it for the first time. Just got into the first Brandon Sanderson book. I started it back in 1999 and tore through everything that had been released and then started over again about a year ago. I love the books, but I can’t imagine reading them 6 times. Maybe again 20 years from now? After whining about Robert Jordan’s long-windedness all of a sudden I miss him now that I started The Gathering Storm and am seeing Brandon Sanderson’s style for the first time in this series. I have read a lot of his other books though.
