The Bard in the show is Jaskier and not Dandelion. I’m a fan of the game and not of the books and I really don’t care for Dandelion either way. I like Cavill as Geralt and only wish he were a bit taller and thinner. I feel the personality is there but he’s too short and muscular for Geralt.

I don’t mind any of the changes they’ve made though.

If they were making racial changes in order to play up on them then I’d be upset. But those things don’t even get mentioned in the show. If mains were swapped I’d be upset but secondaries are fine IMO.

One thing that’s opened my eyes about this show is that I actually like the weekly releases better than the full on season all at once. Here I am anticipating Mandalorian next week and having to wait a year for Witcher. Shame...

Jaskier and Dandelion are actually the same character. The characters actual name is Julian Alfred Pankratz, Viscount of Lettenhove, but he goes by the alias of Jaskier/Dandelion. Jaskier is his alias in the original Polish version. Jaskier translates to Buttercup in English, which the localization team found too feminine, so it was changed to Dandelion in the English books and games.

“Buttercup” is too feminine. I know, let’s change it to “Dandelion” instead. LMAO. That’s great!
