This fan edit is the continuation of Gieferg's The Last Wish, a fan edit of The Witcher. Part 2 (Sword of Destiny) acts as a film version of the second half of season 1 but with more focus, better pacing and a more logical sequence of events than the original Netflix version.
Like The Last Wish, which covered the first half of season 1, this edit is a significantly more enjoyable in telling of the events in the later half of season 1. Gieferg even splices some minor scenes from later content to flesh out the story between Yennifer and Geralt but without the bloat, cringe side stories and unnecessary filler.
If you haven't seen The Last wish and feel put off by the fact this fan edit does not cover series 2, don't be. Both The Lat Wish and Sword of Destiny, due to the way Gieferg's rendition of the story flows; feels chronological and satisfying. While part 1 was excellent I feel the editor has improved with part 2. The minor complaint I had in part 1 about background audio has been completely absent in this version. The jump to the end battle sequence does admittedly feel a little abrupt, but id gladly take that over the original.
All in all, this is a must watch for the Witcher fans. Give it a go!
