There was no source material for the last few seasons

True, but the shows writing diverged from the books before the source material ran out

A cardinal sin in Hollywood.

Tbf though if they closely followed the books, Ciri and Geralt wouldn't ever be in the same room, as the whole series she's running and he never catches up with her. I understand why they needed to change the material to fit a tv narrative, but I don't know why they changed so many things they didn't need to. Season 1 was great, but 2 went off the rails.

Yeah, generally a good idea, but the guy who wrote the Witcher was kind of an asshole who hates videogames, right?

I don't know the story very well but he sold the rights for super cheap because he thought they would be a dumb failure but then later got butthurt and tried to get more after they were a huge success
