Turned my boy Eskel into Groot

Ethan

They did my boy Eskel so dirty this ep.

Solivigant Kaiba

Im gonna hold my opinion until the end of this series, The Witcher, because when I say I was so shocked to see how they did my boy Eskel so dirty beyond belief. Like I know I was not the only one wondering wtf they thought they was doing when they killed him off. "Ayo that dont happen in the books or the game! Aye!!! AYE!!!!"

Ethan

They coulda just killed off one of the nameless show-only witchers in the background instead. First time viewers don't know Eskel and they literally did nothing to make the viewer attached to him, so killing him literally served no purpose for the viewer other than making Geralt sad and shock value. Same outcome if they just used a made up witcher, instead of pissing off the fans by killing a liked character and literally Geralts equal.

Solivigant Kaiba

Exactly like I wanna see how this story ends and I want to know if it was worth it because that did not sit right with me whatsoever. And I never played the game or read the books. I had a friend in high school who would tell me about this series alot because he loved it so much. I got an understanding and came to like it myself and started to watch play-throughs and read lore online.

Ethan

Also, Roshi just saying but essentially almost everything from in this episode and onwards is an original script and doesn't really follow the books or games (kinda like GOT in later seasons). If you get confused, we can't help you bc we don't know either lmao.

Yennefer going through Inception to start the episode.

A lot of people hated on this season, and this episode for how they did eskel. i never read the books but i took this as a unique story, showing how eskel wasn't himself bc of the tree jawn that infected him. Its not like the show didn't give an explanation for him being weird and not like himself. I just liked the episode for what it was i guess.

KeepOnSlippin

I cannot with lupas shirts 😭😭

JsnSkg

"CHOOSE!" Can you calm tf down lmfao. Something's gonna happen, regardless of whether you pointlessly yell at him through the TV screen or not XD.

Smash Bran'Discootch

So those swords actually look pretty much exactly like something you'd find in the game.

Godrick

Geralts sword has a broche on it from the chick in the first episode, so those weren't his. But theyre basically identical to his

rickie woodson

i clapped myself. i thought i pressed play on this but it was episode one and i was like "why they doing this lost wagon shit two eps in a row" lol

Cedric Worthy

“I don’t think they gonna show us the whole season and she’s training” Ummmm🥴

DoobieSam

que: salty source material readers lol

Yanpo

I sometimes wonder if this behavior is new or if people in olden times were also constantly complaining every time a story teller made alterations to the stories they were retelling.

rickie woodson

i thought she said a hundred too but she said a handful so five years ago. i was like "what the witchery is up with her skin care routine if she still looking like that in a hundred years"

Bob

Bruh they went mental when new translations of the bible were made they always haave been getting mad

rickie woodson

welcome to the hut of baba yaga. love the drawing from mythology. she's not a baddie like baba yaga from the zenescope comics but she'll do

Rosie

Poor Eskel, they did him so wrong. I just hope they don't do the same thing to Lambert

MrPoseidon

Yeah, those swords are Geralt's swords from the game and on the scene where Vesemir is putting up Eskel's medallion onto the tree, you can see the medallion they use in the game

Immoral Mortal

They could always try and write there way out of it and say it was a fake that the mutated leshy made with the captured eskal and it has his memories so thats why it went to the witcher hide out, Not the best way i just made this up but i would much rather have this than what we got

John Cedar

Is there a "point" to yelling at your TV in any scenario? I mean, yeah, that can be annoying in real life if someone doesn't stop doing it, but this is a reaction show. You're here because you want them to say their thoughts about the show out loud to you as they watch it, lol.

Thilde

95% of the reason people care about Eskel is the games. The show is based on the books and he's barely a character in them. I don't understand why so many people are outraged by his fate here

Jarelle Hamilton

I knew that Eskel was a VERY minor character in the books but it still hurt to see him go out like that after being a huge fan of the game franchise. Did my man dirty :(

Skebaba

I think that Leshen are prolly akin to ants or bees, prolly from some forest world w/ something like a World Tree, which would be the "mother", and thus the only one capable of producing more Leshen. So think of any Leshen in this world as simply Drones that got yeeted into random dimensional holes during the Conjunction, and thus are now stuck in this world they are aliens to, without being able to reproduce since only the "mother" can reproduce, and it isn't w/ you cuz it might be like kilometers in size or w/e World Tree type of shit have you, and thus wouldn't rly fit through RNG dimensional holes poked into realities by the Conjunction

Johannes Valentino

well it is truth tho. He barely have impact in story of the book. Most of them cares about Eskel because of the game itself

T.E. Stroud

“I alway pronounce this shit wrong.” … Proceeds to pronounce it perfectly :D

VlSch

Bruh, Lupa with his "game knowledge" so annoying

KushWookieee

Them doing Eskel dirty was the one episode of this season that I just thought was trash

Sydo

Yeah instead of killing Eskel they could have made him a Doppler spy, and have REAL Eskel save Ciri when she goes on her first hunt alone. I don’t know why they give him so much screen time and kill him in one episode.

Ethan

There’s a lot of writing in this season that doesn’t really make sense lol. Honestly would’ve preferred some asspull like that compared to what comes next. ***Spoilers for the entire season 2:**** You were warned lol Essentially all of the "original script" this season doesn't mean anything. Almost every plot point and subplot is made up and ends in one of two ways: -The characters act unnecessarily weird/ and create drama. But it's resolved within the season to make it seem like they had character development. But all the writers did is make the characters personality do a 180 due to a problem, then fix the problem and return the character to their original state and call it growth. Literally almost every character ends the season with how they started it or returned to their end of S1 personality. -They set up a plot point to create drama, but then...it just doesn't mean anything or disappears.

Dankster

Why not get upset when they're fucking it up for literally no reason? Compare changes made in LotR movies compared to the books, most were necessary/made sense, here they're just changing stuff for no reason and without thinking how it impacts the characters and their future. Instead of dismissing criticism for no reason, maybe understand that book readers, if they're upset, they're upset for legit reasons?

Astor Lefflinker

Shame that Eskel died, they got a really good actor to play him too.

Jacota Lucian

if it makes you feel better,eskel had little to no purpose in the books either ,none of the story arcs focus on him and he does not much to speak off,him dying now wont influence the story later

Scott Tyson

I never get tired of the "I'm a (object)" quotes.

Nana

Even if eskel had no purpose in the books how he was dealt with in the game, another adaptation showed what could be done with character and made many fond of him so this feels like wasted potential honestly.

MancunianProphecy

At this point the show deviates away from the books..... They change the lore of where monsters come from, they change Fringilla's storyline, they change Yennefer's character, They cut out a portion of Triss' character to shoehorn the weird Fringilla and Francesca subplot... Fringilla's character is the biggest change I feel from the books, there's a massive spoiler from the books I won't go into, but I'd be surprised if they implement it into the series, even though it's a big reveal. I liked season 2 but they've changed a lot from the books other than killing off Eskel.

Alex

Yo I thought the tree guy look like Pauly Shore

Ryan Hill

Simpler option would be for it to be a Doppler. Maybe even the one from Season 1 that stumbled onto the leshen while hunting Ciri.

Ryan Hill

I haven't read the books, but I've played the games and listened to some lore content. What have they changed about monster origins? I thought the show was pretty spot on with the conjunction of spheres dumping random shit from different planes onto the plane/sphere we experience.

Ryan Hill

I personally find it funny. I laughed all of season 1 at him mixing up the signs.

Ryan Hill

Most book readers I've talked to are angry about so much else that they never mention Eskel. It's the game only people that I see complain about Eskel's portrayal most often.

sotonye ogan

So is ciri gonna be a witcher without doing all those trials ?

Foxyguava

Lol... i never thought that before, but fuck they do share some features. If Eskel suddenly went "Heyyy Buuuuddy" I'd totally understand. lol

Youngmamba

Great episode and reaction as always lol. Yeah, they were confused because leshens aren't supposed to be able to infect people at all. Also yen did do an exchange when because she absorbed the fire from the burning buildings and just used it to attack the problem was that fire magic itself is just dangerous to use.

Astor Lefflinker

Solo Lupa reaction to The Lord of The Rings trilogy please. Because I saw the Re Zero reaction where Roshi said that Lupa wouldn't know who Legolas is because he didn't see LOTR and Lupa just said that LOTR is trash even without seeing it. I wanna see him watch it and lets see if he changes his mind.

Tom

But Nana, they're not adapting from the game and it would be pointless to tread the same ground as the game. It's it's own thing and rightly so, otherwise it would add nothing.

Tom

All the book people saying he wasn't an important character lol, it's game people that are salty.

Tom

As neither a book reader or game player, I'm enjoying this season way more than the first (so far).

Bazil

Actually they can still make new witchers. It's just that there is no point in making them because monsters are going extinct. Also Ciri wouldn't survive the trials anyways.

Bazil

I don't think people are angry about Eskel not getting a big role. It's just that he is as good as if not better Witcher than Geralt. So it does not sit well with a lot of fans that he got taken out like a monster of the week

Thomas_Stilinski

Idk if anyone said but geralts hair is white because he underwent extra mutations

Julian R

21:05 bruh Lupa just unlocked a whole memory for me. "Conjunction junction, what's your function?" Schoolhouse rock

Dougie Fresh

Was it said in the show? Not yet. So why the fuck are you running your spoiler stupid ass mouth? Nobody gives a shit that you know stuff stop ruining it for other people you worthless nobody. Jesus fucking Christ I hate your kind. Why. WHY would people need to know that when they can find out later like normal? Are you just that retarded? That desperate for attention? Just kys ffs

Thomas_Stilinski

First off I don't know who the fuck you think you are it's an easy mistake thought it had been mentioned second you could have just told me in a better way to just delete my comment go suck a dick you salty bitch

Thomas_Stilinski

I'm not absolutely certain but I'm pretty sure what I said wasn't even brought up in the show if it is I'll be the first to admit I'm wrong lol

Noel Debach

Geralt actually said that hes different from other witchers because he has extra mutations thats why he is so strong compared to other witchers

Eftynio

My man Dougie needs to go touch some grass LMFAOOOO. This isn't twitter bitch haahah. Go rant about a "spoiler" there. Pathetic

vash_yy

Please play witcher 1 to 3. Just playing witcher 3 is leaving so much dope stuff out.
