This is not all-encompassing. I'll forget some changes--Heaven knows the writers made enough changes. I'll also preface this by saying: This isn't a commentary on the quality of the season itself. It is simply a collection of the differences between the novel and the show.
**Characters**
* Voleth Meir is not in the books. Completely new character.
* Geralt wouldn't use Ciri as bait in the books. Nor did he.
* Ciri is never possessed by a witch.
* Yennefer does not lose her magic in the books.
* Yennefer never considers sacrificing Ciri for power. Nor does the opportunity ever arise.
* Yennefer is not captured by Niilfgard in the books.
* Instead, she is blinded following Sodden after taking a fireball to the face from Fringilla. She then spends lots of time in recovery, then--on Dijkstra's orders--tails and saves Dandelion from Rience.
* No one ever thinks she's dead in the books either (Geralt worries that she died after Sodden, if I recall, but finds out rather quickly she's still out there after talking to Triss at the Sodden memorial)
* Later in the series (Post Time of Contempt/Late Season 3 or early Season 4 by comparison), people suspect Yennefer of being a Nilfgaardian spy. But at no point does anyone suspect her of being a spy following Sodden.
* The Stregobor stuff isn't a thing in the books. He's there, but plays no important role.
* Vessemir wouldn't try to use Ciri's blood to create more witchers in the books. Nor would he ever allow Ciri to undergo the Trial. Nor would he let Eskel bring a bunch of hookers to Kaer Morhen
* In the books, Dandelion is actively working with Djikstra and the Redanian Secret Service. ~~This is removed in the show~~ It is implied that Djikstra is funding Dandelion's sandpiper activities, though Dandelion doesn't seem to be aware of who he is working with. This is speculative on my part though.
* Also in the books, Dandelion is not nearly as comedic as he was in Season 2. He is funny, but they seemed to lean into that aspect of him for Season 2.
* This is more my interpretation, but in the books, Dandelion is far wittier than he is in the show. He certainly doesn't come across as the type to talk to rats in the book.
* Djikstra is not a rambling drunk in the books (although I didn't find that to be a bad change. It was pretty interesting IMO).
* I don't believe Istredd even appears in Blood of Elves
* Francesa Findabar is *not* with the Scoia'tael in the books. By this, I mean she's not in the field with them, acting as their leader.
* She is a member of the Brotherhood of Sorcerers, though she does harbor sympathies for their cause and occasionally meets with Scoia'tel leaders (Filavandrel, as an example). This relationship becomes relevant when she aids Niilfgaard during the Coup at Thanned
* Fringilla Vigo does not become de facto leader of Cintra in the books. Instead, she fucks off to Niilfgard
* Cahir is not captured by the Brotherhood following Sodden in the books. I don't even recall if he was at Sodden. As far as I recall, he traveled back to Niilfgard following the Fall of Cintra, and was imprisoned for failing to capture Ciri. We don't see him again for another two books after Sodden.
* His execution plot-point never happened in the books.
* Book Cahir is also not nearly as mustache-twirly-evil-villain as he is in the show. Cahir fans will know what I mean.
* Tissaia is hardly a significant character in the books.
* Rience is not a magical bounty hunter in the books. He's an almost fanatical follower of Vilgefortz in the books.
* Rience is scarred in the show and books, but in the books, it's because Yennefer uses her magic to wound him as he's interrogating Dandelion.
* Lydia Van Bredevoort does not develop her scars from sniffing a vial of elder blood in the books. Instead, her scars are a result of magical experimentation on Vilgefortz' orders, and her wounds are hidden with an illusion.
* Eskel is not turned into a Leshen and then killed (as far as we know. He's not in the books for long.)
* Vilgefortz and Tissaia are not a romantic thing, as far as I could tell. Nor are they really even partners. Vilgefortz is also the genuine champion of Sodden in the books. He does this to gain more authority in the Brotherhood.
* Vilgy is also way stronger and smarter in the books then how he is depicted in the show. Also, Vilgy never says his classic line. This is a cardinal sin, imo.
* Nenekke is an old and religious lady. She doesn't go around dropping f-bombs in the books.
* Emhyr kept the fact that Ciri was his daughter a big secret in the books. Understandable, given his plans for her (**cough** Imperial Incest **cough**)
* Jarre in the books is a bit of a geek, who is very clearly awkward around girls, and has a crush on Ciri. But he's also smart, and good-intentioned. The show reduces him to a dick joke.
**Plot Points**
* Except for Ciri's training, there is not a single fight at Kaer Morhen. Never. There is no Leshen, nor is there the centipede thing with the claws. There is no possession.
* There are only four witchers at Kaer Morhen (Vessemir, Eskel, Lambert, and Coen)
* At Kaer Morhen, Ciri trains and exercises. Eventually, Triss arrives (on Geralt's request) and instructs Ciri on the basics of magic, as well as the Elder language.
* The plot point with Ciri's blood being able to make more witchers is not in the books.
* Vesemir never collects her blood either. The thought of making more witchers is only ever entertained in the context of Ciri being raised as a girl vs. being raised as a witcher. But the mutagenic process itself/Trial of Grasses is never brought up.
* In the book, Triss travels with Ciri and Geralt to the Temple. In the show, she doesn't. We don't see her get sick.
* On the path to the Temple is when they run into Yarpen Zigrin again. This doesn't happen in the show. As a result, Ciri doesn't visit Shaerrawedd, and there is no fight with the Scoia'tael.
* There is no fight at Melitele's Temple in the books. Never.
* Yennefer does not travel to the Temple to kidnap Ciri and sacrifice her in the books.
* In the books, Ciri and Yennefer stay at the temple for a while. Ciri learns more magic.
* Yennefer is invited to the temple by Geralt after Geralt has already left. See the 'Dear Friend,' bullet point further down.
* There is no reunion between Geralt and Yennefer in Blood of Elves. They reunite outside Gors Velen in the next book.
* In the books, Rience does not find Ciri at the Temple. Instead, Geralt leaves Ciri in Nenekke's care to find Rience at Oxenfurt.
* There is no Shani in the show. >:(
* Phillipa does not help Geralt find Rience, nor does she help Rience escape: as she does in the books.
* In fact, Rience doesn't meet Ciri till the Time of Contempt, which is the next book following Blood of Elves.
* Dandelion doesn't sing at a tavern in Oxenfurt. He sings at Bleobheris, a sacred tree.
* His Sandpiper plot is not a thing in the books.
* Dandelion is not arrested in the books.
* The elf and Cintra plot is not in the books.
* There is a non-human uprising in the North in the books, led by the Scoia'tael, but they are not given Cintra as a place of refuge by the Niilfgardians. Instead, Niilfgard is suspected of funding and arming them behind the scenes to stoke instability in the North.
* Francesca never gets pregnant. Nor does Emhyr commit infanticide against an elven baby in the books.
* The notion that a pure-blooded elf hasn't been born in decades is also a Netflix invention. Elves have a much smaller window of time to get pregnant, but it still happens in the books. Avallach and Geralt talk about this in Tower of Swallow.
* The magical politics is a thing in the books, but is very different from the magical politics in the show. Stregobor does not interrogate or harm Yennefer, and neither do Tissaia/Vilgy use that as an excuse to seize Council seats.
* Instead, the magical politics in the book are concerned with the growing distrust between the Kings and their magical advisors
* The meeting of the Kings at the end of Season 2 is the meeting of the Kings in BoE that puts the Mages on edge, and is used to justify the Conclave in Time of Contempt. However, Tissaia is at the King's meeting in the show, which is not the case in the book. No mages were invited to the meeting in the books.
* When the Kings of the North meet, they do conclude it best to kill Ciri--so as to prevent her falling into Emhyr's hands (they don't want him to have a legitimate claim to the Cintran throne). However, the show cut the King's talk of war with Niilfgaard.
* In the books, they believe a quick strike across the Yaruga could recapture Cintra, and deal a blow to the South. This conversation paves the way for the Second Great War, but does not happen in the show.
* The show also leaves out the politics regarding Cintra's throne. Cordhingrer is visited by Geralt in the books, and they develop a plot to--essentially-- smear Calanthe's name and ruin her claim to the Cintrant throne, thus making Ciri's claim to the throne illegitimate. Thus, protecting her from the kings who want her dead for her political power.
* Again, the Voleth Meir plot is not in the books at all. Instead, Blood of Elves focuses on Ciri's training and planting the seeds for future conflicts.
* I.e. the Second Great War, the Coup of Thanned, Character's motivations to capture Ciri, etc.
* The Monoliths are not a thing in the books.
* The 'Dear Friend,' bit is in reference to letters exchanged by Yennefer and Geralt while Geralt is in Oxenfurt hunting for Rience. Geralt asks Yennefer to travel to the temple to train Ciri. Again, Geralt and Yen don't actually meet though.
* In the books, Niilfgardians are depicted as something more akin to the Romans or English (Highly centralized government with progressive and aristocratic traditions and legal codes). In the books, they are not religious zealots. Though they are also not necessarily 'good' either.
* Yennefer and Cahir never have a team-up in the books.
* Tissaia does not recommend that Ciri be captured, nor does she suggest that anyone protecting her be captured as well. In fact, Tissaia's role in the show is dramatically overblown.
* Ciri is not with Geralt when he meets Nivellen.
* Istredd does not meet with Cordringer and Fenn in the books. Geralt does meet them to find information about Rience and Ciri.
It's not an exaggeration to say that the *majority* of this season is different from the books. And not just sort of different, but drastically different. Hell, the last four or five episodes are fictitious (relative to the book canon (yes I know it's all fiction, please stop reminding me)) in nearly every way. At this point, I'm not certain where the story will go. For example, how will the Coup play out on Thanedd if Ciri won't be able to attend it? And if Ciri isn't at Aretuza for the Coup, then how will she be warped to the desert? And if she isn't separated from Geralt and Yennefer, then how will she meet up with the Rats?
Obviously, they can still work these plots in, or at least, work in the *effects* of these plots, but the story will take a drastically different turn than the one the book tells.
Note that this isn't necessarily a good or a bad thing, so long as it's done well. But there has to come a point when the adaptation is so drastically different from the source material, that I start to wonder whether it's truly an adaptation, or if it's a reimagining.
申明：巫师3含DLC全通，但小说没看。
先说优点：
1.动作场面确实不错，大量和怪物打斗的场面完成得非常出色，作为一部动作片是过瘾的。但是贯穿全剧的最终Boss，每次出场都颇为故弄玄虚，云里雾里的，算是小失误。
2. 第一集改编得确实不错，有黑童话那味道，故事相对独立，算是一个优秀的把人骗进去宰的材料。
3. 如果巫师3玩家来我这里想和我一起喷“好莱坞选角的zzzq”那我不奉陪，我觉得肤色不是问题，选角上，Ciri，Yen和Triss的选角没有问题。尤其是Triss这季妆造大大改良了，好看了不少。而这季的新选角里老爷子和菲丽芭非常优秀，而迪胖被大大地美化了一把。
4. 优点这一栏，“亨利卡维尔”五个字值得单列并且大书特书他的好，以下省略一万字彩虹屁。这剧的评分只有三星，剩下的两星是给亨利卡的。
话说回缺点，我最不满的在于，把人物性格和关系完全写崩了。
为了衬托Ciri的成长线，她身边所有人都有一定程度的扭曲，叶奈法会有背刺Ciri的想法，老爷子犹豫不决决断力连Ciri都不如，而杰洛特为了Ciri把剑拍椰奶脖子上的场面真的是让我翻白眼…
最可怕的是，经过了这样的一个扭曲地调整，居然还有点自圆其说地圆回来了，但是格局小了很多很多。猎魔人的世界里那么一点温暖善良的角落，那些可爱的人，都变得小家子气了。凯尔莫罕在玩家心理的世外桃源感，就被打碎了。
第二季第一集开始我心情还挺激动的，到了艾斯卡尔便当开始觉得不对劲，后面从第五第六集开始多个人物全崩……醉了，编剧说他们改编自小说而不是游戏，那我可以接受人物选角上的各种和游戏冲突的地方，但是小说里也不是这样的人物性格啊！这魔改真是让人不舒服。
有些改编是可取的，比如让希瑞加入童话的真实性（真爱如血）这一短篇中，可以避免犯第一季时间线混乱的错误。贯穿整季的林中老妪也是不错的原创内容，她引出了叶妮芙的故事，而且最后和整个世界最大的威胁狂猎联系在一起，有始有终，all make sense了。
猎魔人Eskel和第一季的莫斯萨克类似，虽然他们一直活到游戏第三部，但剧中因为后续戏份不多早早领了便当。可是Eskel完全颠覆原本冷静理智的形象，乖张而莽撞，忘记怪物的致命要害，甚至带一群风尘女子到凯尔莫罕（非常非常非常离谱，网飞一定付给了安杰伊老爷子一大笔钱才能让他忍受这样的桥段），活脱脱一个差生模样。
Francesca是一个术士，也是个政治动物，而不是被复仇冲昏头脑的绝望母亲。她在将来的仙尼德岛政变中要扮演关键角色，剧中她和术士协会完全没了瓜葛，真不知道这段故事要如何发展。
维瑟米尔想利用希瑞，甚至叶妮芙也想利用希瑞，还出现了杰洛特挥剑指向叶妮芙的场景。这些改编不仅仅是让原著党无法满意的问题，对角色形象和人物关系的影响也是很大的。劳伦-施密特-希斯里斯对“灰色道德观”的理解似乎有些浅薄，让角色做蠢事或坏事并不能体现这一点。
杰洛特变成了一个男妈妈的样子。他的倔脾气，他的冷幽默，他常常不合时宜的原则性，他努力想藏但藏不住的正义感，他偶尔流露出的孩子气，他面对一个突如其来的青少年养女的手足无措，这些全都无影无踪。这个杰洛特太完美，缺少了很多魅力。
相对来说，更喜欢第一季让我觉得太油的亚斯克尔了。他成了最与众不同的角色。
台词一直飘在天上，完全没有烟火气——生活质感本来是猎魔人作为一部奇幻小说很独特的亮点。
所有猎魔的过程都有着一致的节奏：先把气氛烘托到位，简短的交手后一刀毙命。是缺钱了吗？
总结，劳伦-施密特-希斯里斯的剧作水平不太担得起《猎魔人》，她的才华在原著作者面前犹如火苗面对火炉。
Fuck it. I decided to compile a list of every change between Season 2 and Blood of Elves
Heavy spoilers for the books and Season 2!

作为粉丝还会继续追下去，但这一季感觉节奏有点慢，说教的台词有点多。
除了第一集明显是短篇改编，后面是一个加了不少原创的剧情的长篇，加一个原创boss再草草写死几个人，总体并不高明。
人物性格和行为相比于小说也都显得肤浅而缺乏个性。Geralt拿Ciri做诱饵，Yennefer会打Ciri的主意然后低头认错，Vesemir想要Ciri的血去造新猎魔人，都是一些想当然小人之心的改编，而原著里这些人物绝不会干的事。
编剧想贯彻善恶之间的灰色地带，却把重心放在了模糊主角的道德原则上，而不是这个世界的黑暗残酷上。整个世界和人物的动机比原著世界“美式现代”了不少，有一种stranger things的感觉。
原著人物确实有点过多，改编要学会取舍，而不是让配角人物设定语焉不详，性格模糊，动机不明。尤其是法师会的那帮人。Stregobor上蹿下跳到底想干啥？Vilgefortz反而在打酱油。Tissaia倒是挺露脸，就是怎么突然从嫌弃到那么心疼Yennefer转变有点接受不了。
这是猎魔人维基百科的第一段描述，我要补充的“高阶女术士”这个头衔在当时只有她拥有，不仅仅是因为她身为艾瑞图萨校长培养出了数十位极其强大的女术士其中包括但不限于：
1.校长接班人玛格丽塔（魔法世家的大小姐接受最正统的魔法教育蓝量极其雄厚，千里镜连菲丽芭都承受不住蓝量消耗但她却神情自若）
2.豪横了大半辈子且是她最自豪的学生菲丽芭（从出生到进学院毕业去为国王效力一直都是顺风顺水可谓是人生赢家直到仙岛政变...）
3.人称“正宗的科德温荒原之女” 的萨宾娜（原著里根本不像剧里那么柔柔弱弱，是个脾气极其火爆一头红发实力和椰奶相当且一直争风吃醋的女术士）
4.接着是被游戏玩家最热爱的“你会不会看攻略的”凯拉
5.最后就是大家的老熟人叶奈法
anyway，以上5位皆是后面女术士集会所中的成员，重点来了：
很多人觉得威爷是最强是极其错误的判断！
玛格丽塔从小接受的都是最正统的魔法教育是蒂莎娅培养出来的接班人，魔法造诣极深但毕竟缺乏实战经验，年岁的阅历也不如菲丽芭。（ 完整列出玛格丽塔·劳克斯-安蒂列在精神、心灵以及体能上的过人之处，写成的表格恐怕会堆成一座高山——原著描写）
菲丽芭则相反拥有极强的实战经验精通变形术暗杀幻术等技巧而且是蒂莎娅最骄傲的学生，从这一点就可以看出来菲丽芭真正的实战能力可能更强于玛格丽塔（但是法师的战斗力从来都不只是评价她杀人有多么干净利落，这一点后面会说）
而威爷则是个半吊子出家的魔法师，即使天赋强大但是在没有人教导”源力术士“的情况下各方面魔法知识也肯定是逊色于学院派的几位学生的
威爷和菲丽芭在仙岛政变中大打出手，各自找人组成双打阵容法术正面对轰持平。（我个人认为菲丽芭是强于威爷的，威爷曾经是战士近战能力优秀但是菲丽芭精通变形术完全不怂近战，法术对轰持平的情况下菲丽芭还有很强的幻术能力并且是学院派出来拥有非常不错的魔法知识储备，这些都是强过威爷非常多的地方）
所以三人的排名我觉得是：菲丽芭 > 威爷≥玛格丽塔
当然了，蒂莎娅的实力更加强悍，接近四百岁的她不仅在魔法的各个领域都有杰出的成就在实战里也是拥有不亚于菲丽芭的实力。
蒂莎娅仅仅只用了一个咒语就解除了妮娜在加斯唐宫布置了整整一年的反魔法结界
非常重点的来了！！！！！！大家一定要注意仙岛政变时的威爷等南方势力不仅仅是收到反魔法结界的限制，他们还被菲丽芭扣上了反魔法金属手铐！！！但是蒂莎娅也同时解除了他们全体的手铐！！！（很多人觉得解除结界咒语掌握在校长手上没什么了不起的却忽略了威爷等人手上还有对术士更致命的手铐，蒂莎娅凭借这一手就可以称得上是最强女术士了更何况后面还有更惊人的表现）
有太多太多人没有完全了解蒂莎娅将仙岛政变的原因怪罪在她头上我真的非常痛心，她是原著里极少数极其正义的角色了，更何况还是在女术士这个群体里出的一个奇葩...
首先我要说明很多人包括猎魔人维基百科上都是写的” 单纯而又错误地决定 “相关这样描绘的她在次次政变中的决策...但大家有没有想过：
1.和她差不多大的拥有四百多岁高龄的格迪米狄斯被气的心脏病发作死去并且有不少中立派被菲丽芭误抓的情况
2.希里这个魔源的预言更是石锤了菲丽芭是带有政治属性的色彩在清剿南方势力
两方面原因再加上她本人根本不希望兄弟会高层内讧才解除了反魔法结界和南方法师手上的反魔法手铐希望他们各自散去，根本没想到威爷等人的北方势力早就策划好了这一场惊天阴谋在反魔法被解除之后联合松鼠党对在场的法师进行无差别的屠杀...
蒂莎娅在加斯唐宫混战中一边保护中立派法师一边提防来自南方法师和松鼠党并且击退了北方精锐部队，由于其极强的实力迅速肃空了加斯唐宫但也心灰意冷万念俱寂,,,
杰洛特被威爷打成重伤，特莉丝也受伤不轻且无力再打开传送门送走自己和杰洛特，哀求蒂莎娅送走自己和杰洛特，蒂莎娅接受并且在经历一场大战后开出传送门还能神情自若毫无虚弱之感
依赖设置类传送门和道具供魔的情况下，已知：
只有五人的巫师会成员，特拉诺瓦开两道远距离传送门，对身体负荷巨大。n蒂莎娅连开三道跨越数个城邦，神情自若，轻松无比。n同时她还可以自己不参与，而是在直接把白狼和特莉丝从仙尼德传送到遥远的布洛克莱昂。n这就是巫师世界第一术士的能力体现。
特莉丝无法在准备不充足或有疲惫感时带人传送n叶奈法、薇歌等更强的术士可以带一人中短距离传送n菲丽芭、法兰茜丝卡等人会更强，但是也许强不到哪里去n艾瑞图萨的优秀应届生和普通毕业生，连传送自己都做不到n至于那些非学院派，可能只是自我钻研/野路子的外界术士，就更不用多说了
特莉丝和凯拉这种带一人传送都勉强的女术士。n已经足以担当北方联盟一大王国的国王顾问之职。
三胞胎身世事件邀请了蒂莎娅和前任校长等对血脉拥有出色研究能力的人前去探还有她一眼便识别出希里的血脉也是她在上古血脉的研究中拥有极其傲人成果的佐证
所以巫师世界观术士的战力究竟是如何的呢？
首先大家必须要明白的一件事就是对于术士来说，最重要的不是说你能多么多么牛逼杀人，衡量你实力最重要的指标是：知识
没错就是知识，知识就是力量对于法师来说是通用的
而在知识这一块，精灵贤者可以说是掌握着绝对的话语权
所以在衡量术士战斗力的时候，精灵贤者必定是高于所有人类术士的

最后补充一下蒂莎娅的结局...这位伟大的女术士在宏伟的一生中竟然草草了结了自己的生命...真的太唏嘘了..
蒂莎娅·德·维瑞斯用花哨的字体在信尾熟练地写下自己的名字。思索良久之后，她又在旁边加上一个代表她真名的表意文字，没人知道她这个名字。自打成为女术士那天起，她就再没用过这个名字，那已经是很久以前的事了。
云雀。
她把笔放到羊皮纸上，动作谨慎又端正。很长一段时间内，她端坐在那里，注视着落日的红晕。她站起身，走到窗边，盯着窗外的屋顶又看了好一阵。在那些房屋里，普通人已上床就寝，平凡而又艰辛的尘世生活令他们筋疲力尽；他们的脑海里充斥着普通人对命运和明天的憧憬。女术士看着桌子上的信。看着那封写给普通人的信。大多数普通人不识字的事实并不重要。
她站在镜前，拉直头发，抚平衣裙，从泡泡袖上抹去一粒并不存在的尘埃。她正了正胸前的红宝石项链。
镜子下面的烛台摆放得不大整齐。肯定是她的仆人在清扫时挪动了位置。
她的仆人，一个普通女人，一个普通人类，目光中透出对眼下一切的恐惧。一个在这轻蔑的时代随波逐流的普通人类。正是这个普通人类，在她——一位女术士——身上寻求着希望和安全感……
但她辜负了这个普通人的信任。
有脚步声。士兵沉重的皮靴踩踏地面的声响从街道那边传来。蒂莎娅·德·维瑞斯一动不动地站在窗边，甚至没有转身。是谁的脚步声并不重要。王家士兵？受命逮捕叛徒的守卫？刺客？威戈佛特兹的杀手？她一点儿都不在乎。
脚步声消失在远方。
镜子下面的烛台看起来乱糟糟的。女术士把烛台重新摆好，又正了正桌布，让它的四角和桌角对齐，同时与烛台的四边形底座对称。她解下手腕上的金手镯，整整齐齐地放在平整的桌布上。她又仔细检查一遍桌布，这次挑不出哪怕一丁点儿毛病。一切都整齐又干净。就像她期望的那样。
她拉开梳妆台的抽屉，取出一把骨柄短刀。她的面孔骄傲又僵硬。全无表情。
房间里安静极了。她甚至能听见一片凋谢的花瓣落在桌布上的声音。
殷红如血的夕阳缓缓沉入那片屋顶之下。
蒂莎娅·德·维瑞斯坐在桌前的椅子上，吹熄一根蜡烛，将羽毛笔再次放在那封信上，然后割断了双腕的动脉。
最后猎魔人第二季的编剧我CN大爷
蒂莎娅跑去和威爷上床了？？？？？？？？？？？我曰你全家
