The Witcher Potions | How to Drink
I've had a TON of requests for this episode and here it is, today I'm making potions from The Witcher: Cat, Swallow and Black Blood. Hmm.
The Witcher is of course a hugely popular video game franchise, and it's now a show on Netflix, but it started out as a series of novels. The novels got adapted in the first video game back in 2007 and despite some develop hiccups it went on to be a wild runaway success that had a massive and growing fanbase and several sequels. I actually haven't gotten around to playing it just yet, but I will be today over on my twitch at twitch.tv/gregfromhtd so I hope to see you there! Anyway, I've had a ton of requests for potions from this game, and I'm glad to have finally gotten around to it, but there are SO many potions in the game, and alchemy and potion making is so central to it, it was hard to choose. My research suggested that Cat and Swallow were probably the most important potions in the game and most commonly used, and Black Blood just sounded cool to me, so that's what I went with.
