The Witcher: Blood Origin Creator Teases Prototype Witcher, Wants to Satisfy Fans

In the upcoming video game, The Witcher: Blood Origin, players will experience a new interpretation of what it means to be a Witcher. This new take on one of the most iconic and popular fantasy franchises in recent memory will give fans an entirely new perspective on what kind of stories pitchers can have in their world.

Comments left on the video both on YouTube and on Twitter expressed sentiments less passionate than those held by de Barry. Commentors questioned the program's developers' understanding of the books while some were hesitantly interested to see where the program would take this model Witcher principle. As held true with the last trailer for Blood Origin, plenty of individuals were simply subverting the discussion to request Henry Cavill to come back as Gerald, too.

In a video shared on Saturday, de Barry discussed the concept of the first Witcher. That's something that's been mentioned in Andrzej Minkowski's books in concerns to how the very first pitchers were developed, however nobody person has been called in the books as the original Witcher. When Blood Origin concerns Netflix on December 25th, we'll have a (non-canonical?) response to the question of the very first Witcher's identity.

It's terrifying and terrific at the very same time since you desire to admire the books and the tradition and satisfy all of those fans, he continued. But also, you desire to produce an entire story that exists, that would be worthwhile of a Minkowski book, that lives on television and is self consisted of. And getting to develop that world and explain how whatever happened with The Witcher, it's just, that resembles a golden chance, could not improve than that.

That's something that's been pointed to in Andrzej Minkowski's books in concerns to how the very first pitchers were produced, but no one individual has been named in the books as the original Witcher. This Witcher is not the Witcher we understand who's humanlike and, you understand, can take potions and have powers. It's the origin of what makes it possible for pitchers to exist in The Witcher world in Minkowski's books.

When it comes to adapting source materials while also developing something brand-new, he continued to talk about the contrasting emotions that go into making something initial like this.

We understand in the books to a specific point how the pitchers were produced. The reason we call it Blood Origin is due to the fact that we're informing the tale of the first model of a Witcher, de Barry stated. This Witcher is not the Witcher we understand who's humanlike and, you know, can take potions and have powers. It's 1.0. It's the origin of what enable switchers to exist in The Witcher world in Minkowski's books.

The Witcher: Blood Origin uses a brand-new take on the idea of a Witcher with the intro of what creator and showrunner Declan de Barra calls a prototype Witcher, an idea that differs the source product and explores a previously untouched concept as far as Witcher lore goes. In a current video discussing Blood Origin, de Barry spoke about the fantastic and terrifying feeling of pursuing something initial like this while still saying that the group's aiming to make sure fans are satisfied.
