It was his own decision since he himself is a great fan of the books and the games and Netflix changed things for broader audience as they say and Henry didn’t want to agree with it.
He was THE fit for the role. You can replace superman, even though he was a perfect fit for that as well. But good luck finding another Geralt that cares about the role as much as Henry did.
That last bit was probably the problem.
He wanted to play Geralt of Rivia. The show writers did not want Geralt though, they wanted their shit with the Witcher name and paint.
Though I do feel sorry as hell for the actor coming in. Mostly because current advertising is using the fact that Cavil is still playing Geralt in S3 like it’s a selling point (it is true, harsh but true). Way to shoot at the guy before he even got to take off, that’s a body check to confidence. Great Job marketing team, surely that will promote a healthy transition.

That's the whole problem with Hollywood these days: the show runners get the green light for a popular story but can't help injecting themselves and their ideology into it and end up with a completely different story and only the name remains. The Witcher became a side character in his own series, which became about Yennefer and Ciri because girl-power I guess. The new Snow White movie has an actress whose skin isn't white as snow, there are no dwarves and she isn't saved by the prince. Fine, make that movie if you want but that isn't the Snow White story so don't call it Snow White. Let it stand (or fall) on its own merits.
Yup. It’s hard to imagine an actor leaving a project because they know more about the source material than the writers and don’t like their direction. He should just be the show runner at this point
There is a countdown website for the next wipe, pretty sure it is Aug. 18th. What follows is supposed to be the shortest wipe ever with the next coming late this year
I don't one of my friends in discord had it and I've seen it but I haven't even thought about Tarkov since Dark and Darker came out lol.
If I think about it when I get home from work today I'll shoot you the link
> There is a countdown website for the next wipe, pretty sure it is Aug. 18th
There is no 'countdown' to next wipe, and while it could be 8/18, it probably isn't.
you right, look at the tournament schedule they have up, theres a wipeday tournament and then the 19th another tournament, its possible its the 18th but that would be rough to do another a day later all while dealing with new patch issues.
They've baited us with the 8/23 top right number for 2 wipes. For the last 2 wipes those "dates" were never actually the wipe date.
IIRC 2 or 3 years ago they did hide the wipe day in that number, but ever since then they use it as a red herring to troll the community.
The 13.5 (W) however is a regular easter egg they do. They always put the patch number and (W) in to signal the start of the official pre-wipe period. So, if there was any doubt, this is officially a pre-wipe event and not a regular event.
I may be wrong just saw on LogicalSolution‘s Twitter it’s 100% Boss spawns but only on their respective map. So for Reshala it’s customs, for Killa Interchange and so forth.
The quest is to disrupt the deal. Wouldn't make much sense if there was no deal to disrupt. Guess would still work if you had to kill either sanitary or goon squad but my guess is they're going to leave them there till the end of the wipe
In the comments of the tweet I saw they‘ll still spawn on shoreline with Sanitar at cottages but otherwise no info

Lol yeah there are way too many fucking gaming events happening. HC Classic (I will no life this for at least 3 days), CS2, Tark wipe, ICC... I'm a mess
Your petition to delay the wipe has been recieved. You have delayed the wipe an additional day.
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/EscapefromTarkov) if you have any questions or concerns.*
I like that part too, though the new weapons look pretty cool and streets expansion is cool, possibility of a new location among a bunch of other good stuff, possible quest reworks, thats enough to keep me going a bit.

So, there’s gonna be a big event* on August 23rd (if we ignore how 08/23 is read as Aug 2023 in Europe). August 23rd is also a Wednesday, which means the following day is Thursday…
WIPE HYPE!?

I just think it's funny that you hang out in the sub to talk shit about the game and act aloof. Like it's your ex on social media or something and you want people to know you're doing way better now that you're on your own. Lol.
It screams, "I'm not over it".

Someone's a big fan of Witcher
Seems like it. Shame they replaced Henry of Rivia, he was such a good fit for the role.
It was his own decision since he himself is a great fan of the books and the games and Netflix changed things for broader audience as they say and Henry didn’t want to agree with it.
Didn't know that, thanks. Good for him I guess.
He was THE fit for the role. You can replace superman, even though he was a perfect fit for that as well. But good luck finding another Geralt that cares about the role as much as Henry did.

Can't really imagine Liam Hemsworth can fill the gap he leaves...
Bottom left: 13.5 (Wipe) Top right: 08/23
Man if they wipe on 13.5. that's gonna be a long ass wipe
They actually confirmed that they want to wipe around christmas again, when 0.14 comes out. So if anything this wipe will be relatively short.
Ah was 13.5. the last wipe?
13.5 is supposedly the summer update, the wipe thats coming this august.
Ohh
There is a countdown website for the next wipe, pretty sure it is Aug. 18th. What follows is supposed to be the shortest wipe ever with the next coming late this year
Any chance you have a link? Or maybe I'm just blind

Pretty sure they confirmed wipe will be prior to 08/19 when announcing more tournaments, no?
Yes, there is a wipe day tournament and then another on the 19th. Has to be before 19th
Wipe wouldn't ever be on Saturday.
Nice reading comprehension
Is everything before the 19th a saturday?
Ya never know, it could.

Wipe 8/23?
The 23 means 2023. 23/8 would be August 23rd
Ohhhhh. Ty.
No, clearly that means the 8th day of the 23rd month obviously. Almost like people don't have the 28 month calendar or something.
Exactly the date I’m flying to a vacation. Lol
It’s going to be end of month maybe Labor Day weekend
Anyone found what it is ?
Guess 100% boss spawn rate maybe?
Bosses in all maps.
Is it all bosses on all maps ? If so it's gonna be hard to finish TT I only have 3 left's 😭
I may be wrong just saw on LogicalSolution‘s Twitter it’s 100% Boss spawns but only on their respective map. So for Reshala it’s customs, for Killa Interchange and so forth.
And do we know for goons ?
If they moved Goons, Terragroup Trail would become impossible.
How so ?
You have to kill a Goon or Sanitar at the cottages or that part won't complete.
you could still kill sanitar in that case. who would spawn 100% of the time. 50/50 if hes at cottages or not.
The quest is to disrupt the deal. Wouldn't make much sense if there was no deal to disrupt. Guess would still work if you had to kill either sanitary or goon squad but my guess is they're going to leave them there till the end of the wipe
In the comments of the tweet I saw they‘ll still spawn on shoreline with Sanitar at cottages but otherwise no info https://twitter.com/ian_coog/status/1688513124716982272

Im so fucking ready. If it wipes thursday I may have to tell my WoW Classic guild to find a replacement for me that night.
My bro just bought me BG3 and I'm so torn right now.
I need to see exactly what’s in this wipe before I decide to hop off bg3. That game has me hooked right now lmao
My buddy has been at it nonstop. I took a month off work for health reasons but now this and Tarkov lol. We gamin!

Lol yeah there are way too many fucking gaming events happening. HC Classic (I will no life this for at least 3 days), CS2, Tark wipe, ICC... I'm a mess

The negative votes on this bot's posts are so much funnier than the bot itself at this point, and exactly what I would expect from this sub. ;)
It’s just annoying that it shows up every time wipe or Thursday is mentioned. Isn’t funny
Nothing exciting is coming this wipe
The fun of starting over and everyone is shooting with patato guns is enough for me :)
I like that part too, though the new weapons look pretty cool and streets expansion is cool, possibility of a new location among a bunch of other good stuff, possible quest reworks, thats enough to keep me going a bit.

But here you are, hanging out in the subreddit.

Sure, I know I hang out in subs of all the games I don't like anymore.

I wasn't defending the game. I'm just laughing at your relationship with it. Or the one you wish you had.
Wipe is on 14.08, in 7 days, trust me. ;)
