The biggest difference between drama and novel is that one mainly relies on vision, and the other mainly relies on imagination. From the outside scene, the story takes place on the set of Blade Runner, but it's not plausible to enter the room and be clean and tidy. Doesn't the director feel that it's against him? Look at the future world constructed by the movie version of Ghost in the Shell, or look at the micro-innovation based on Blade Runner in the 12th version, plus the orange world of Blade Runner 2049. Can't you just go for more snacks? ? The AI gathering and playing card scenes are well received, and the virtual interrogation is well-received. These small worlds that are separated from the "real world" are well designed.
In terms of visuals, there is another problem with the protagonist. Kovac originally changed some bodies. The TV series may have tried to save the prosthetic body considering the salary and other issues. There is no visual manifestation in changing the body casually. In addition, I have to complain about the first act. After Kovac’s death in the novel, “immediately” (the time of psychological perception) is transferred to the neoprosthetics. Kovacs himself and the readers are confused. The readers pass by Kovacs. The experience gradually understands various technical settings, this experience is very interesting. In the first act of the TV series, Kovac was killed and the new prosthetic body was interspersed to show, in order to better explain how Kovac became another person? The original novel may refer to the shocking scene of Neo waking up in a petri dish in The Matrix.
