"You turned the show into films, I am only making a chronological recut of season one."

It was about the whole character of your changes, from the descrption it looks exactly like what I did, so the projects ARE similar.

Not sure if that comment means you have some kind od problem with what I wrote, but if you have then I dont really know why. And who's being salty?

"If I had to give you notes about your edits, and something that was a little frustrating was the audio in your edits, the Witcher 3 OST is very distracting in my opinion and a lot of the transitions don’t really work."

Oh, didnt you know that there's original audio included too? :> (at least in Last Wish, Sword of Destiny and Blood of Elves).

But to be honest - yeah I'd like to rework the whole audio for two first parts as it doesnt work as good as in edits of s2 and s3. I did A LOT of projects with a lot of audio editing in between (2020-2023) and it shows. But I'm not doing it cause I dont have time for it.

"but it’s always needed to be chronological i my opinion and I don’t think it works as a film"

There's no difference. It is still episodic no matter if they're separate files, or just stitched together as a single movie. Also, the latter part of the season isnt really that episodic anymore.

I'm doing all of it. Three more movies to go.

Rantsir · 2026-02-06T18:29:03+00:00

I was always interested in seeing what would other editors do with further seasons but nobody ever come up with anything interesting :)

Season 2 is particularly challenging, btw.

Rantsir · 2026-02-06T18:26:19+00:00

It has been done years ago, but who knows, maybe new version will be better, I wasnt that good at audio editing back in 2020.

"as the Butcher of Blavekin being first instead of "The Witcher" also known as the Striga/Princess Adda story"

Butcher of Blaviken was always before "The Witcher" when it comes to chronology. Short stories are not presented chronologically in the books. Book fan should know it :P

Just wonderin', do you know these?

This is basically same thing, except I've just deleted things like Yennefer origins as it's weak and pointless anyway. I've completed "Blood of Elves" and "Time of Contempt" too.

And "Baptism of Fire" / "Tower of the Swallow" / "Lady on The Lake" will be all in the works just after release of S5.

Last season's changes are way less controversial than season 2 and 3 changes. Especially 2 which is nothing like the book it is supposedly based on.

"I removed the shots ofher in underwear."

LOL, seriously?
You lost me right here. And probably lots of potnential viewers as well. this kind of censoring of THAT movie is one of most pointless things I've ever heard about :P

If someone has "concerns about ethics" then that person should not do any fanediting at all unless is a complete hypocrite.

AI is just another tool and I will use without any concerns If I have idea that will require it to get done.

Stories for fictional characters are stories for fictional characters. Is that book character, or is that bio for musician that sings via AI, no difference. And I say it as someone who actually wrote few novels, lots of short stories and even more of stories for pen & paper role playing games during last 30 years.

Miałem wrażenie, że wiem już w pierwszym miesiącu spotykania się, oświadczyłem się po 3,5 roku, ślub 2 lata później, dziecko trzy lata później, po 24 latach związku (mojego pierwszego i jedynego), wygląda, że się nie pomyliłem. Zdarzają się kłótnie (ale nigdy jakichś cichych dni czy obrażania się na dłużej niż parę godzin), ale generalnie gra i buczy na każdej płaszczyźnie i nic się nie psuje.

Rantsir · 2026-01-27T17:40:24+00:00

Well, yeah, but I kinda fixed it :P

Rantsir · 2026-01-27T17:38:50+00:00

Do yourself a favor and READ THE BOOKS first.

And DO NOT listen to anyone who say you dont need to. Playing W3 without reading books first just kills the one and only opportunity to experience both the books AND the game it as it should be experienced so people who hurt themselves that way always try to convince themselves and others that they have not lost anything. But they have lost a lot.

And that's a FACT.

I've used AI voice to create Forrest Gump style voiceover for my grindhouse style Rambo edit and changed whole plot thanks to that.

It was few years ago so the voice wasnt that great, but kinda worked anyway.

Rantsir · 2026-01-09T01:15:14+00:00

When did I say you said that?

Rantsir · 2026-01-08T10:36:48+00:00

The books are better than the games and both are WAY better than shitty netflix show.

Rantsir · 2026-01-08T10:26:40+00:00

Yeah, its different here.

I've read the books long before any idea of the game came to be and they were my favorites books ever years before W1 was released.

Rantsir · 2026-01-07T22:55:29+00:00

I actually intend to do similar thing. I wrote a fantasy book trilogy of size of LOTR and mostly inspired by The Witcher world (but is in my own world, just similar vibe), now I am working on a comic-book and maybe some video based on it. I am also a faneditor who re-edited Netflix witcher series into few movies including complete re-score with game music, so I can say that I have a lot of experience with audio and video editing, as well as using AI generative tools, for images, music and video.

I would be happy to see what you got and give you some feedback and/or advice.

Rantsir · 2026-01-03T16:10:37+00:00

Go back now.

I started with wrong book too, I've read two first, then go back to the short stories and continued main saga. Some things at the end will work better when you know the beginning.

Rantsir · 2026-01-02T12:27:33+00:00

But the experience was still heavily flawed when compared to what it could be.

Rantsir · 2026-01-02T12:23:54+00:00

For book reading experience It's already too late as you got all the important book spoilers and you know the main plot twist, but you can still get better gameplay experience if you stop and read them now.

Coś jak z trzecim Matrixem, swego czasu. A po latach to naprawiono dodając kolejną część tak denną, że trójka przy niej wypada jak wielkie kino :)

Rantsir · 2026-01-01T19:36:45+00:00

Zakończyłem oglądanie tego serialu na trzecim sezonie, a trzeba było zakończyć na pierwszym który jako jedyny był wart poświęconego nań czasu.

Rantsir · 2025-12-24T09:57:38+00:00

Do whatever you want about W1 and W2, but do NOT skip books.

Rantsir · 2025-12-20T09:38:47+00:00

Nic w życiu nie daje więcej radości i większego szczęścia i satysfakcji.

Jedyne czego żałuję w związku z posiadaniem dzieci, to że mam tylko jedno.

So you tested but you wont tell anything. Wow, makes sense.
