True there is an element of adaptation but these adaptations usually go out of their way to incorporate their new elements. It's kind of like staking their ground while not realizing the source material is popular for a reason. I think the Witcher tv show is a great example of this where little to no remixing was necessary but they did it anyway.
Speaking of, didn't George R.R. Martin write for Elden Ring? How much you wanna bet he helps with the film adaptation? The man will do literally anything else except writing the sequels that were supposed to come out a decade ago.
