I'm sorry but this season felt way weaker than the first one.
The story felt like it dragged at times, and although the wild hunt got namedropped earlier in the season it turns out it was 'just' set-up for a third season.
I will watch season three, the atmosphere is still amazing and I feel like this season will basically be a prequel to the Witcher 3 (the game).
I still have to play the first two games but I saw so much of the third game hinted at in this one that it's inevitable (although they are, of course, based on the books).
I thought the theme of this season was more 'family' than 'destiny' which is much harder to sell as new or enticing, which they unfortunately failed at.
I would give this season a 7.4 out of ten, this episode a 7.
