“He doesn’t have a squad like in Call of Duty”: Geralt’s line in The Witcher’s season 4 trailer outraged fans

Comment Views: 24

Viewers are asking why the new Witcher talks like a character from a military shooter.

With less than a month until the fourth season premieres, Netflix has finally released the official trailer. The clip teases a large-scale confrontation with Vilgefortz, a journey for Geralt and Yennefer, and Liam Hemsworth’s debut in the lead role. Yet one line from the new White Wolf drew particular attention from viewers: “Let’s ******* move!”

Fans say the line is utterly uncharacteristic for Geralt — it comes off as militaristic posturing and is worlds away from the Witcher they know.

“My God… Did the creators of this show even spend a minute playing the game to learn how Geralt speaks and shows emotion?”

“The Witcher spent most of his time fighting alone because he is death incarnate. He doesn’t shout ‘Let’s ******** move,’ nor does he have a squad like in Call of Duty.”

Against the backdrop of ongoing controversy over Henry Cavill’s replacement and the show’s creative direction, the new season is launching amid another wave of fan criticism. The premiere is set for October 30, and based on the reaction so far, Netflix will likely need to win back not only viewers’ attention but also their trust.

The trailer is available at this link.
