The Witcher author says he's never played the games that cemented his fame: "I have no time for this, and it's not entertainment for me" (www.gamesradar.com)

Exactly, which is why I don’t understand disliking the games and being salty over a poor financial choice. Especially after CDPR gave him extra money after the success of the series

Yes, he is definitely salty about not taking the royalties and being made to look a fool because he chose poorly. I think he is also extremely salty that the thing he thought would amount to much is 1000x more successful than his own creation. His books are more successful now thanks to the games, but that's just pouring salt in the wound for him.
