After watching some good discworld adaptations like Hogfather and Going Postal I figured... yeah lets give this one a chance.

The word for this thing is "NO"

No discworld is not some weird steampunk land No that's not this character No that not this character either No that's not what this character wears or does you're confusing them with... No, No, NO!

And that's BEFORE you get to gender swap mess they have. The aesthetics are ugly. The characters are that in name only. Their actions make no sense UNLESS you've read the books. If you've read the books your head will start throbbing because again these actions make no sense for this character in the current context.

The people who've made this clearly have no love for Pratchett's work or any consideration for the fanbase.

In The books we are introduced to Vimes piss drunk in the gutter. Literally that's his intro and yet that was far more dignified an introduction than what he got here.
