The dude was so mad at the handling of The Witcher TV series. He knew the missteps were happening and tried to fight it. I'm proud of him for abandoning that show when the showrunners sabotaged it deliberately.
My favorite part of everything Cavill and the Witcher series was the interview where the interviewer starts asking him questions about games and which platform he prefers and shit, and the chicks that play Ciri and Yennefer are sitting there and they get this glassy eyed thousand yard stare like "oh God, he's talking about video games again".
The amount of unapologetic nerdery the dude has is commendable. Just genuinely does not give a fuck what people think of it.
Nobody should give a fuck what anyone thinks of their hobbies. The world we be such a better place if everyone was just happy with what my makes them happy.
other thing to note is that the concept of a modern video game is barely 50 years old. The idea of kicking a spherical shaped object for fun is as old as humans themselves. It's Inherently easier to accept physical sports than video games, which are an extension of Television -- a technology which already has negative connotations attached to it.
