The Tencent version is overly long and drawn out, has mediocre visual effects and production, censors key parts from the book, has bad english-speaking actors, but has decent writing and is interesting to watch.
The Netflix version has awful writing for the scientist protagonists, dumbs down or omits parts of the book (the audience is too stupid to learn what the CMB is for instance, and barely any time is spent in the vr game), zips through the story real fast because they decided to cram all of the first book and part of the sequel into 8 episodes for some reason, but has great visual effects.
- distances 3y agoI found the VR parts in the books mostly just annoying, so my take is that the series has quite enough VR time.
- hedora 3y agoHaven’t read the books or watched the tencent version, but main complaint with the netflix version was that it seemed kind of slow. It was good, but I felt a movie could have covered most of the first season.
