This totally won't be a disaster.
I would argue that Bioshock is one of the few video game franchises that would probably do well in a non-interactive story medium. It's a very story driven video game. As long as they trust the writers to respect the source material and come up with a compelling story, I think it could be great. There's always a chance that it's a disaster though.
Witcher flashbacks...
The book was really good. Unfortunately Infinite made it non Canon
Interesting. How did Infinite do that? Or was it Burial at Sea?
It was specifically Burial at Sea. Some of the gaps it filled in cant coexist with the gaps that the book filled in
Luckily Infinite is the worst game of the series and I have no problem discounting its lore.
People say that, though it's my favorite. And I am not alone.
I feel like the DLCs were much rougher, though.
They're going to hyperfocus on the shades and the armblades, and totally miss the whole point of the series, I guarantee it.
There have been quite a few great video game adaptations lately. Last of Us and Fallout come to mind
Neither of which were Netflix series. They just have a way of ruining franchises
Castlevania and Edgerunners were good but I recognize those aren’t live action.
