The entire writer room and production staff behind The Witcher adaptation should have been fired. But nah, Netflix's idea of exclusives is quantity over quality.

I kept watching the show thinking it was going to get better but it just got worse and worse. I guess if you know nothing about the books or games it might be ok. That was truly horrible though.

I know nothing about the books or games, reckon I could watch it?

Actually that's a lie, because of social media I know it's set in ancient White Person Land where anyone of any colour other than milk will take me right out of the immersion. I'm guessing I shouldn't watch it then.

set in ancient White Person Land

? You mean Europe? The setting is based on Poland.
